Zweihander vs. Estoc | Knight Fight at a frozen Waterfall

• Lurking Shadows
The footage is from an early modern quarry whose small waterfall is frozen into ice stalagmites. At the foot of a small stream, a duel is taking place between two armour fencers with two-handed swords. My equipment corresponds to models from 1485, my friend Niklas uses armour and armament from the 16th century and a Gothic Schaller.

You guys did outstanding. I have no idea how this does not have millions of views, hidden gem will for sure share this.
Thank you. The youtube algorithmn doesn't like me!
There's nothing fancier than two knights in the shining armours, half-swording on a white snowy mountain.
The way the guy in the sallet drops to his knees at the end, whilst the camera zooms out with the droning music is just such a stark image.
Thanks!
@@dequitemYou are more than welcome. Bravo sir.
Someo 2:11 ne take the last clip of this and put "You Died" with dark souls music lol
This is probably my favorite short film you've put out to date. The winter setting, the full plate, and the choice of weapon pair well alomg with your usual amazing cinematography to make an absolutly stunning video. Thank you so much for the art my friend.
Das nenn ich mal cinematic. Echt Klasse und meine Hochachtung.
Bin selber ein großer Fan von Hema und hab auch jetzt für den Anfang mein erstes Langschwert gekauft. Mein Ziel ist es auch mal mit voller Rüstung so ein Duell nachleben zu können.
Gerne mehr davon ;)
Ich freue mich eines Tages mit dir die klingen kreuzen zu dürfen.
this is so much more than fights in movies. its very authentic and realistic. keep up the great work!!! greetings from Nord-Rhein Westphalen! :))
I guess, in these conditions, it could only be worse, when fighting without armour.
Great job, gentlemen.
Thank you for making this excellent video
Visually Stunning
Sonically Unforgettable
Take care my friend
he got a knife to the jewels
Yes he did.
Where even is this? This place is beautiful!
Super ❤😊
Ich hoffe das colorgrading ist jetzt besser als bei der ersten Fassung.
This is pure art. 🤺
stunning
magnifique les amis!
So dagger wins?
Don’t go full force!
From where you got Estoc?
It's the sword of my friend.
@@dequitem Ahhh i try to buy Estoc but in Poland nobody makes them. Your friend made Estoc by himself or bought it?
@@dequitem does he have a yt also?
@@davidfields8450 only Instagram.
@@dequitem damn. Is it linked?
jah
And this ladies and gentlemen is why we do not portray sword fighting realistically in fantasy.
it's a real shame in my opinion
*Black metal plays*
The masculine urge to dedicate my life to the sword after watching this is unreal 😂
My friend as someone interested likewise, if a local HEMA school is not around, so what me and my friends have done, read manuscripts or watch tutorials together, get some basic armor and practice blades and just have fun, just be extremely careful to follow guides precisely if you cannot afford proper armor
Nothing around me unfortunately but for sure will have to do something with my buddies and train together like you said!@@mitchellwright5478
That's what I've benn doing the past six years 😅
Ouch.... that ending! lol
I hope you like it :D
@@dequitem It looked very effective!
The filming kept the actions and technique in great view, and the environment really brought out the feeling of cold and cold metal clashing!
they did him dirty
@@dequitem Question: how would a Claymore sword do in armored combat?
these are some of the best vids out there for people interested in full armor
Thanks.
When you watch these you really begin to appreciate why some form of hammer or mace was preferred for armored opponents.
It wasn't and I trust him more than I had the opportunity to strike him hard!
Yes there were maces on battlefields, but less than spears and swords.
@@dequitem but the polexae kind of count as both a spear and a hammer, though, and was quite popular. :)
@@alexandreboureau6175 yes polearmes were popular but only with the opportunity to thrust someone. Even maces often had a spike at the end.
@@dequitem I had this theory that thrusts and cuts in the gaps in armour were the preferred way to fight in armour despite what the popular opinion is, it's nice to see that someone who tries to practice actual armoured fighting shares a similar opinion.
This is haunting and beautiful at the same time.
No remorse, no holding back - it's so unglamorous, so visceral, so brutal, I love it.
beautiful! 😍
Thanks!
Beyond psyched i found you guys, algorithm wins again
Cool, your welcome.
But most of the time the algorithm sucks!
MORE duels in this location please!
It's not that easy, to make movies in location like that.
@@dequitem Of course, but totally worth it!
@@AggelosKyriou but 700 views doesn't show that :(
@@dequitem God dammit, we need to post it everywhere!
There is a beauty in how unglamorous this is. Thank you!
Gorgeous footage!
In general, what sort of rules do you play by?
Everything that didn't kill your sparringpartner is allowed, the fights end when one of the opponents surrender.
@@dequitem But there were quite a few thrusts that seemed to end on lightly protected parts of the armor. Do you think some of these would have been incapacitating if the swords were not blunted?
@@alexandreboureau6175 yes there were some thrust that mayby injure me or my opponent like the thrust to the eye slight (second thrust in the video), but most of them where not deadly.
1:15 must have felt like a sledgehammer blow. These videos are incredible
Doesn’t even look like he pulled that stab to the groin. Chill bro, it’s just a UA-cam video.
But it's my video. So suffer bro! 😈
@@dequitem think of his potential children!
This is the human version of majestic stags locking their antlers to fight for animalistic dominance
This is a fantastically shot video. I hope you guys didn't get injured too badly
What a beautiful video! It’s strange to watch such a silent fight and without faces. I guess your speech gets muffled by the helmets.
How hard is it to keep warm in the armor? It doesn’t seem to be much room for warm clothes underneath.
You commonly wore a Gambeson (quite heavy padded vest) underneath plate and chain. I do LARP, no historical reenactment, and even in the usually much less historically accurate armors I can tell you you do not get cold easily.
I'm not 100% certain if Dequitem here wears one, but generally even without one you're moving and doing so much you just don't get cold.
@@deimos39 good to hear!
With death as a likely outcome, you at least don’t freeze before the fight. I don’t have any evidence, but I suspect that people have had better clothes during much of our history than we have today.
@@simonjonsson3654 Agreed! Even the somewhat historical stuff I wear is a lot more comfortable than much of the stuff I wear regularly :P
Magnifique !
😍😍😍krank was für ein Video
Kannte st du die erste Fassung noch nicht?
@@dequitem doch doch
@@rcandfunnystuff4017 dann danke ich dir umso mehr für deine Kommentare um die Videos zu unterstützen.
@@dequitem Klaro
Sind halt einfach super
I have a theory that cod pieces evolved out of a desire to not get dick stabbed. I dont have any evidence to support this other than the fact that codpieces meant to be worn with fullplate exist, and it'd make sense imo. Even with one with less thick material usually they're so structured yet flimsy it'd be hard to get a good stab in on em
Just a thought.
Is the guy dead?
Only theoretical.
Plot twist: It all started over a Twinkie.
I love watching two tin cans try to open each other, it's so cool
I would love to challenge you to a fight
But only once I get the hang of my polearm 😅
damn thats crazy
Estoc - German thrust sword.
Yes!
Great fight, but I really don’t care for the way the camera is constantly zooming *away* from the action.
Ups. Didn't recognize it myself. That's an mistake!
How do you guys decide when to drop down? Is it totally dramatic or is it that you realize that you are probably dead in real battle? If it is the later one, how can you tell when you are supposed to be dead?
We discuss it after the fight.
The helmet with a slit as a visor is super scary... Cannot stop thinking about that rare real slim chance of a sword getting right in... Terrifying. Please pass it along so he change the design for his own safety/. I know the chances are super slim but still...
Love all your videos man. Thank you.
I want to see some ground and pound
Absolutely amazing
Knights used to suck at MMA. This is why Samurai were superior. Just do a double leg takedown then use your dagger. Samurais knew how to Judo.
1: Samurai did not do martial arts. They fought blade against blade, they practiced something called "honour" - which I assume might be a new concept to you.
2: You see what they have to do here to even land a *possibly* fatal blow. You can't just "do a takedown" against a fully, properly armoured opponent.
3: Before we even consider either of those points, there is no comparing Samurai and medieval Knights. The battlefields they fought on, the cultures they lived in - wholly different from one another.
In short, please - educate yourself before you make a take this banal.
@@deimos39 Kendo is a martial art you ignorant. So is Judo.
Lot of things that work well in MMA become quite dubious when both opponents are wearing 40 lbs of steel.
Knights knew a thing or two about martial arts, but the emphasis was mostly on wrestling. Punches and kicks and throws all are rather ineffective against an armoured opponent, but wrestling could help put you in a position where you would be able to ram a dagger into a sensitive gap.
Samurai combat did not involve Judo. Their main weapons, depending on the period, were long polearms or bows, so a fight between them would take place at a further distance.
Also, Judo was developed in the late 19th century, long after the time of the Samurai. They would have had an early form of Jiu-Jitsu if they saw fit to train in unarmed combat.
