Bergerlmir

according to Germanic mythology, was the son of Thrudgelmir and the grandson of Ymir. When Odin, Vili and Ve killed Ymir and threw his body into the middle of Ginnungagap, all the frost giant's blood except Bergelmir and his wife. By using a hollowed tree trunk as a boat, they escaped to continue the race of giants, who never lost their hatred for the gods. At Ragnarok the frost giants and the dead of Hel were destined to settle the final account for Ymir's dismemberment.
