Like this fellow:

You probably have very little exposure to traditional Norwegian culture.

How common is mouth harp music like this in traditional Austrian or English folk music?

Of course but I am talking about the representative culture of Norway and it has nothing to do with folk rituals and folk music. Who really cares about it anymore? It is slipping into oblivion more and more every day. Only a small handful of people know about it and most Norwegians couldn't be bothered with it I imagine.

By the anyone knows is there simmiliar thread about finnish people?

famouse finnish sniper Simo Hayha was finnish? Cas he was alot shorter then average finnish people i.e - 152-160cm

(i noticed that Sami height was disscused before in this topic, but havent seen that some one would say what is their average height now)

(edit - people in this topic already told me that Simo Hayha was not sami but eastern finn)
