Summary in 1 page

  • Hiccup is a young Viking living in the village of Berk, where dragon hunting is a way of life. However, Hiccup is not like the other Vikings – he is small, weak, and not very skilled in combat.
  • One day, Hiccup manages to shoot down a Night Fury dragon, one of the most feared and elusive species. However, when he goes to find it, he discovers that he cannot bring himself to kill it.
  • The next day, Hiccup goes to find the dragon again and discovers that it is trapped in a ravine. He tries to help it, but it is aggressive and attacks him. Hiccup manages to subdue the dragon and names it Toothless due to its retractable teeth.
  • Hiccup begins to study Toothless and learns that dragons are not the mindless beasts that the Vikings believe them to be. He also discovers that Toothless is unable to fly due to a damaged tail fin.
  • Hiccup uses his knowledge of dragons to train Toothless and build a prosthetic tail fin for him. As they spend more time together, Hiccup and Toothless form a strong bond.
  • Meanwhile, Hiccup’s father, Stoick, the chief of the village, is determined to find and defeat the dragon responsible for the recent attacks on the village. He organizes a dragon hunting party and Hiccup is forced to join.
  • During the hunt, Hiccup and Toothless discover a dragon nest and realize that the dragons are not attacking the village out of malice, but to feed their young. Hiccup tries to convince the other Vikings, but they refuse to listen.
  • Stoick and the other Vikings manage to capture the dragon responsible for the attacks – a giant dragon known as the Red Death. However, they are soon attacked by a group of dragons, including Toothless, who has been controlled by the Red Death.
  • Hiccup and his friends, including his crush Astrid, manage to free Toothless from the Red Death’s control and they all work together to defeat the dragon. In the process, Hiccup loses his prosthetic leg and Toothless loses part of his tail fin.
  • After the battle, Hiccup is hailed as a hero and the Vikings’ perception of dragons is changed. Hiccup is also able to fly with Toothless using his new prosthetic leg and Toothless’ repaired tail fin.
