The word "berserk" originates from the Old Norse term "berserkr," which refers to Norse warriors who fought with intense fury and exhibited frenzied behavior in battle. The term is thought to combine "ber-" (bear) and "serkr" (shirt), suggesting that these warriors wore bear skins or had a fierce, animal-like demeanor. Over time, "berserk" has evolved to describe wild, uncontrolled behavior beyond its original martial context.
