A Day in the Life of a Female Jouster
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 лип 2017
- Nicky Willis was Britain’s first female jouster and a much-loved performer at many of our events. We were fortunate enough to meet Nicky in 2017, when she explained what drove her to compete in the traditionally male world of jousting, and how she prepared herself to take on this challenge. Sadly, Nicky has since passed away, but we will always be grateful to her and her family for allowing us to share her experiences of bringing history to life through her passion for jousting.

I want to become a jouster in the future... She is very inspiring for people like me... My only problem is that I don't know if it's possible to become a jouster in Holland....
Arne Koets one of the greatest jousters come from Netherland. I thing it is possible. ;-)
I'm a lady and I jousted in my 20s. We weren't quite as intense but it is thrilling regardless! I've since retired and moved on to eventing with my draft horses.
I remember a female jouster back in 2007-2010 called Demelza who was great
I must see her joust live now! Amazing- she is so skilled
I never met you Nicky but I know the ripples of your work everywhere I go now. Rest in peace, fantastic lady.
R I P Nicky .. you are sadly missed.. ride on Big Bird ..
Amaaazing! I would love to see this in person! SO cool!
The great courage of this amazing lady
she is so cool! ^^
Henry the 8th wouldn't have put out such a decree unless women were jousting.
Yep. The law is there probably because someone was doing it and he didn't like it. Party pooper.
Is there anywhere to get lessons like jousting needs more of recognition. It has so much skill.
Well done.
Three cheers for Nicky. Hip hip hooray hip hip hooray hip hip hooray.
it should be skill, not your gender, that garners you respects
Very cool.
Wowser!!! Never knew there were women jousters!
Not all Angel's have wings.. she loved and lived each day R.I.P

Joze Butinar how is your comment 3 days old if they posted the video a minute ago?
RIP Nicky xxx
Are there other female jousters?
Yes there are! Obviously no events last year, but there's many female jousters in competition and display events now.
Ottoman flag my favourite
second!
1:14 sunglasses are not from that era!
She is not a historical reenactor.
She is a Pimp-Shades-Wearing time traveler
Not sure this is historically accurate...
That isn't a woman
Clearly you have the authority to dictate people's gender
