Great video, thanks. Many years ago in the 1970/1980s as a police officer we did 'riot training'. One of the exercises was with the Mounted Branch (police horses). We, the officers on foot, were lined up with linked arms and we had to practice opening up in the middle to let a row of mounted officers through to charge at the 'rioters'. I can tell you that was scary! The two officers in the middle had to un-link arms and then each side of the line had to move quickly aside to get out of the way and let the charging horses through. I can imagine how frightening it must have been to have them charging at you!

Back in the day when I did my military service they taught the drivers to hold the thumbs along the edge of the hands so they only gripped the steering wheel with the fingers, not with the thumb. The reason being that if they are driving in the terrain and drive over a big obstacle the shock would be enough to break the thumbs if they had the thumbs over the steering wheel. Might knights have done the same with the lance to avoid broken thumbs when holding the shaped handle? That edge would probably smack your hand regardless, but not as bad as breaking the thumb at least.
@WisdomThumbs6 жыл бұрын
I believe it was William the Marshal who wrote that the best possible lance hit was to lower and lock the lance the *instant* before impact. Since he beat so many other knights, that probably meant few people did such a thing (especially since, as Jason points out, you can keep the lance fairly level at the horizontal while charging). Also, the longbow wasn't really a threat to the armored *knights.* It was a threat to their barded horses.

Men-at-arms absolutely did use lances two-handed in certain situations. The treatises describe and depict the use of lances in this way. Gripping with two-hands allows you to overpower your opponent's lance using superior leverage. There was actually a lot of feinting and parrying going on with lances. Similar to a swordfight, only at a combined closure speed of 40+ mph. Matrix-level shit.

Amazingly detailed video! I remember when I had to do a photo shoot wearing armour and mounted which really highlighted the importance of a trained horse. The lance was oversized and the horse wasn't trained. Every time poor Red saw the tip he would get scared and try to turn to away from the lance was. It got so ridiculous that if I wanted to turn to the side where I had the lance, I'd have to wheel him around all the way to the other side. Funniest part was when I had to "charge" between two female warriors for a photo, without actually hitting them but close enough that it would look like I was. Horse got scared and veered to a thorny tree, I got caught in the branches and almost fell off the horse... Good times lol

Horses were smaller then, but a charger would be the same size as these mares. Also, they'd have spiked spores and curb bits which are now thankfully illegal. What a great show and fantastic series this is!

Holy moly. I was wondering why the production of your videos is on par with something you'd find on Netflix. I now know why. Good job to everyone who worked on this.

I like this guy's vibe because if I had excess money from other enterprises I would absolutely use it to pursue my passions. He cares about what he's talking about which makes the videos both informative and engaging. Great channel, subscribed!

Thank you so much for these videos! I like how you let the viewer "behind the curtain" so to speak. For a future vid, is there a way you could show a group of knights in a full cavalry charge? The logistics may not make that feasible, but it's a logical next step from showing the training of an individual knight to how knights fought together. The liability insurance costs alone may not let you do it, but I think it would make a great video!

I think this is my favourite medieval channel right now. There are many, but this one has very good production quality and also I have never seen horses ont the other channels.

Very nice analysis of training both knight and horse. I do wonder though if armour (especially barding on the horse as well) would actually slow the charge down from its weight, even despite the articulation still allowing full movement.

First, let me say I am a great admirer of all of your videos. I particularly enjoy anything to do with horses. Here in the USA I am addicted to the rodeo event of team roping, and ride and rope several times a week. I am also a bit of an amateur medieval military historian. Believe me I’m no Dr. Tobias Capwell, but very much enjoy learning about the knightly arts. Your videos have shown me the many similarities between Chivalric horsemanship and team roping, meaning in both you must first ride well before you can even think about handling weapons or a team roping rope. Also, you Sir, and Toby Capwell are the only medieval martial artists that I know of that actually ride. I’m sure there are others, and intend no disrespect, it’s just that I’m not aware of them. In other words y’all are not tinhorns posing as knights, y’all are the real deal‼️
