69 pounds i fucking wish

This is an excellent skill to learn for survival situations.

It would have been perfect for mounted archers. Get within range, fire off your magazine, retreat and reload.

lets see the step by step tutorial on how to make them you pansy

good to chase away horse archers

where did you get the mold for your plumbata heads?

So it's that early time when gunpowder was already invented but guns weren't a thing yet, so instead of shooting a bullet with that powder some madlads just slapped a package of it on an arrowhead and fired it from a bow.

the start had me so bamboozled

when you have a higher armor rating, but they have insane crit chance

Did try this at home actually, regularly, as a child (about 10 yrs old, Inverness, 1960s). The kit was simple and easily made from local rowan wood. The bow was made from a shaft of rowan, usually unsculpted, dried for a while and then notched and strung. The arrows were of coppiced rowan, usually unfletched (heavy at pointed end!), pointed, notched and the ends dried in a fire. The chemical warfare addition consisted of dried beech leaves wrapped around the arrow just behind the point and bound with strips of broom bark. That was then dipped in a mixture of petrol and paraffin. Isn't technology wonderful.

5:50 I was expecting an "ooouch!" sound in the distance

The advsntsge of crossbow unlike what some other comments say is less training needed so you cam have more using them

MEDIEVAL IS MUCH MORE ACCURATE ! 😂 🤣 😂 crossbows don't really "kick" they tend to jerk forward away from you.

they made janky Swordbreakers on Forged in Fire. They couldn't break a toothpick let alone a sword.

does this have a specific name vs the smaller ones ?

A bunch of clowns.

Thank you for this! I'm writing a pirate book and have been wondering how to describe them gearing up with their different swords!

Man can use a bow

I like them both, because they both have their good points, sorry, but you know what I mean. 😉😂🤣😂🤣

if you were marching forwand with the shield and the shaft was bent down would it not have more of a chance of gettig caught in the ground being on a diffrent angle?

“And this, is the horrible result!”; gleefully shoves handle right up into our faces 🤣 Love it!

How very good !

What about fighting against someone with only one sword? Wouldn't it be SIGNIFICANTLY more advantageous? Because they are basically disarmed? Assuming you can keep a good grip on it?

Anyone else suddenly craving a doner kebab?

He could just remove it with gloves.. or use his own dagger to scrape it off. Bit of overdramatizing

queer-booyee.

What weight arrow you shooting?

When your castle is under attack and your archers made a video which kind range weapon is more effectively

That was a great video. Thanks for the follow up. Super interesting

我上小学的时候曾经和同学研究过火箭头 因为缺少资料最终失败了。但是我把做火箭头剩下的油炒了一盘野菜 并且当作礼物送给了另一个同学。然后被他妈妈丢进了垃圾桶。

did you know muslims invented chemistry? you should look into muslim weapons during the same period to understand how advanced that civilization was

I think UK owners of crossbows should be vetted before purchase and a licensing system should be put in place, as I believe at the moment, any idiot can buy one.

Wayy late to this but even in 18th century scabbards for swords etc. The back is often times really ugly stitching line wise. Like its not an even stitch count, and it zig zags all over the place. Meanwhile front is the focus of “niceness” with somewhat good enough lines along the front usually with sideways lines and X’s that don’t cross in the center of the X.

Todd is *truly* a man of the people.

Samo przyjęcie traktatu migracyjnego umożliwia UE naciskanie na Polskę. A co robić? Rozwijać umiejętności samoobrony i nosić praktyczne narzędzia. Jesteśmy dojrzałym społeczeństwem, a Policja po prostu nie zdąży z pomocą.

now test it against his underarmor t-shirt =)

They could just drop and roll

Haha aw man, that bow is 90 lbs heavier than mines. 😂 I is a wimp.

wouldn't you just use a sword or knife to scrape it off? would have liked to see Tod try to scrape it off with a blade when it was stuck in the fabric. Also when it was stuck in the shield.

i would watch the same with recurve bow, and recurve bow from horse. Shooting from horse to fowrard more speed and strength. Mongols power!

fruity stance

Didnt the saxons communicate orders through letters perhaps its helps to translate orders ,or codes

Truely a lovely build. So timely with the auction of those two type 18’s as well.

Geeze, seeing the damage it was doing to the meat was insane. I can't imagine being unlucky enough to get hit AND can't get it out/off

Ok now it's time to put the the armor on and see how it feels to get hit.

Странно что в этом тесте не использовались бронебойные наконечники для стрел. А ведь именно такими обычно стреляли по воинам в доспехах. Но всё равно было очень интересно.

I suppose that the poor guys that got a fire arrow head (without the stick) stuck in the maille would use their own sword to try to disengage it, and if that fails, resort to using their hands. Better to get burned hands than chest.

The mediavals like rude jokes? Hold my hammer. *Sir? Sir? Is that your Dagger or ar you happy to see me? Sir? Sir? Could you pleas stop stabbing one of my Goat? Sir!* One of my filmpodcasts have in there Merch shop a bollock-bottleopener😂.

Am I the only one who noticed the typo on "Armour" in the title? :P
