@GhostX1200 --- If you think that's slow, I'm afraid you don't know what you're looking at. Those horses are going quite fast, covering nearly 300 meters in less than 5 seconds from a full stop. We joust fast and while in control. I'm the one who started on the right.

Holy crap you are a brave soul for jousting. It's beautiful to behold. It just looks so dangerous. I hope you are wearing some ballistic eye/face protection under the helmet.

[@LegoGenfilms]

wish that was me....

[@historicent]

Well, yes. It is quite real. This clip is of me, in the red and blue caparisoned horse.
Why would you think it isn't real, if you don't mind me asking?
