      Population density is about on the level of Finland, I live in the south of Finland, and houses on the coast like that with several hundred meters of no-one else around aren’t that rare when you go even 5-10km fron the city centre.

      So I assume they aren’t in Trondheim either.

      Helberg only discovered the unexpected visitor when a panicked neighbour who had rung his doorbell repeatedly to no avail gave up and called him on the phone.

      “The doorbell rang at a time of day when I don’t like to open,” Helberg told television channel TV2.

      Relatable

        Helberg says he did not wake up when the ship hit land a few meters away from the house.

        But we woke up to the neighbor loudly ringing the doorbell. He said: Haven’t you seen the ship?

        It was quite absurd. When I looked out the window, there was a huge ship’s bow there, says Helberg.

        Lol I love this guy

        Helberg, the hero of Trondheim. It’s a warmish spring morning; how many of those do they get a year there? 20? Helberg is not gonna waste that.

      Willem Dafoe, call your office for another sequel. Didn’t they drop an anchor on his character at the conclusion?
