Indeed, that's one of the most memorable moments in Norwegian history. King Olav V’s decision to take the tram was a powerful gesture that spoke volumes about his sense of duty and solidarity with his people during a difficult time. It resonated with Norwegians then and continues to do so now. The king was known for his approachability and for being very close to the Norwegian people, often referred to as the "People's King". This event solidified that image, showing that he was not above facing the same hardships as his subjects. The moment was captured in a photograph, which shows King Olav standing in the tram, ticket in hand. That image has since become a symbol of the king's humility and the democratic nature of Norwegian society. So yes, even in times of crisis, there can be moments of unity and common understanding that bring us closer together, and this was certainly one of them.
