Since there's an influx of new commenters: - This is a video of an event from UK living history group Historia Normannis. - Yes, the weapons and armour are real (although blunted), and whilst you can certainly buy kit most often you make it yourself (excepting, like, actually forging the materials of course lol) - No, the fighting isn't choreographed. Their isn't a pre-determined winner/loser to fights; even if an event has parts where we tell a story to the crowd, there'll often be multiple 'scripts' for speaking members depending on which side actually wins the fight. Same goes for the smaller duels like this The combat operates on a hit-points based system, where additional armour effectively lets you get hit more times before you die. A low tier member such as myself, wearing little more than a wool tunic and helmet, has two hits before you have to 'die'. If I remember correctly, the boys here have about 5. There's a kind of kayfabe sort of thing akin to wrestling, whereby we try and maintain an illusion of realism. For example, I fight with a long spear (9 feet in length, give or take). Were I to, somehow, get lucky and make a forceful thrust into one of these guys' chests, they'd opt to instead take all of their hits and play into a more dramatic death for the sake of the audience. You can sort of see this in this video after he stumbles off after the hit to the arm; he's taken his last hit, and so allows it to be a more dramatic 'death' through the shield bash Anyway, tl;dr: come join us! We're great fun!

I think the large man is demanding to know how the grass tastes because when you're that size you really can't afford to be running around fighting midgets and skipping meals. Big men require big calorie intakes. Our man just wanted to know if this green stuff around him was on the menu or not, and was encouraging his dueling partner to find out for him since he is shorter and would naturally have an easier time reaching the grass.
this is what an irl parry god looks like. that confident strut forward, unfazed by his enemy, before effortlessly deflecting his opponent's attempt at an attack. magnificent.
I fought a rep 58 one of those for the first time today. He soloed my entire time at the same time and I wasn’t trying to feed revenge as my level 1 centurion. They are scary
@@scintillam_deiThe fight is indeed staged, in so much as it’s a stage fight. Doesn’t change the fact that the dude who got shield bashed into next week did apparently get a concussion and I think a broken nose, as mentioned in an above comment in the comment section. You might be surprised to learn that these kinds of fights are kinda just played out once both guys get into the ring, with injuries being played up for the spectators, and some added showmanship with the taunts, and a few other things, but that’s about it.
I love how everyone laughed at the taunt but the very second the little man was bashed everyone in the crowd including the commentator gasped collectively then there's that one man laughing so hard 😂

@@highviewbarbellbased on another comment, apparently they go by a “hits” system- so, the little guy had legitimately lost when he walked away holding his shoulder, and fully intended to take the fall when he charged in to make the loss more dramatic. Hence, why he kept his sword and shield at an angle that meant he wouldn’t fall on either.
@@illegalmemedealer3549 The traditional hit system doesn't apply when it comes to conroi, instead it uses contextual hits and injuries for the entire body, not just designated hit zones. The little man had taken a few strikes to the legs and torso, and judged himself unable to realistically continue if he'd actually been injured in those places, and put on a good show by dying dramatically
That sure was a brave last charge, you can see that he hesitate for a bit and took a last breath, then started running with all his might toward his certain death haha

Roland was tired. He had been fighting for what It seemed like hours. The shield was too heavy, he couldn't breathe right, and he was tired, oh so tired. Another exchange. Ser William's sword reached his left leg, not enough to cut through the mail, but enough to make him back away limping. It couldn't end like this, he couldn't lose now. The kingdom trusted him, his honour was at stake. Ser William had mocked him time and time again. This was his chance of proving everyone wrong. But he couldn't fight any longer. William was faster, taller, stronger. . . Better. He had landed far more strikes than him, and in better places, all this while he carried a bigger shield, and he wasn't tired at all. Swords clashed again, and this time Ronald felt a burst of pain on his side. The sword had struk true, he was sure of that. The world around him seemed foggy, moving. Ronald could hear the sounds of cheers and maybe pleads for him to resist, but he wasn't sure. The only thing he could heard clearly was his own hurt thumping on his ears and his breath huffing out of his mouth. Then, he heard William shouthing: "TELL ME HOW THE GRASS TASTES, LITTLE MAN!!" Little man. THAT was the final straw. Ronald felt the wrath boiling in his guts, the strenght returning to his arms and legs, the pain of the injuries fly away. He charged. He charged with everything he got. He charged with a roar, lifting his sword and shield, ready to strike the final blow. He charged for his kingdom, for his family, for his honour. He charged. And then, the end came. William threw a blow with his shield, Big and heavy, right on his helmet's lower part. Ronald fell backwards, hard and loose, hearing the crowd go silent, and the laugh. The laugh was the last thing he heard, begore the darkness claimed his eyes.

It's crazy how this isn't even staged, this was a real fight between two medieval knights. Vince Gilligan decided to keep rolling and captured this amazing footage. Bravo Vince!
Bear in mind his arm and shoulder are not actually injured, he pretends they are. They legitimately got hit, that's how he knows to do so, it's the antithesis of children crying "I got you!" "No you didn't!" That honor system is one of my favorite things and why I will always love doing this, I love showing people the respect of acknowledging their hits and choosing to play along.

I've thought about joining, but seeing the magnitude of the hits makes me worry about my skull (I've had multiple brain surgeries), so I'll just have to live vicariously through people like you. :)
the guy literally dashed into an unblockable attack

This is why chicks prefer tall guys
If you're curious, the smaller of the two fighter is actually 6' tall

0:26 "he's not down yet!" 10 sec later 🛡️🛡️ 😴😴 now he's down 😂
You know what? With the rest of the context, I fully understand why that guy rushed now.
I just thought he was a braggart, but that other guy had his number. Good try man
"You are summoned to court to answer for the crimes of your bannerman, Ser Gregor Clegane, The Mountain..."
Showed this to my niece, her response was "homie got sent to Narnia"
This is great
This is why martial arts competitions have weight classes
Saw your link in the Pavise comments. I must say, this is awesome. XD
Thanks bud. Theres gonna be a fight soon. They're doing it for charity
Actual footage from 1066! Glad someone could paint it and put it together into a movie for us to enjoy in 2023.
This is how it feels to be a new player in Mordhau.
It's crazy how this isn't even staged, this was a real fight between two medieval knights. Vince Gilligan decided to keep rolling and captured this amazing footage. Bravo Vince!
Who's Vince galligan?
This is already way cooler than hollywood combat, it just feels way more authentic.
Nice to see this finally reached 1 million views.
didn't even notice! thankyou! XD
The rush didn't work, but it's hard not to respect the "little man"'s grit
That goes all the way back to Homer’s Iliad. Death was described thus: “He seized the earth with his teeth.”
I feel bad for the little man, he deserved better 😕👊🏼...
I'll say this; he ain't a quitter. A lesser man would have limped away instead of charging their opponent one last time with their head held high ⚔️
@@CaylexT True. We shall always remember the little man, he fell with honour, one of bravest warriors of our time 🗿💪🏼🔱...
I really appreciate the wider context! Thank you for uploading!
Bear in mind his arm and shoulder are not actually injured, he pretends they are. They legitimately got hit, that's how he knows to do so, it's the antithesis of children crying "I got you!" "No you didn't!" That honor system is one of my favorite things and why I will always love doing this, I love showing people the respect of acknowledging their hits and choosing to play along. It's not a vehicle by which to ignore hits like airsoft cheaters, I'm not at all surprised as I've been doing theater my entire life and will never stop
I'm juat gonna fucking steal that line thank you.
I one day wish to own this much equipment and have these kind of bouts! Real, sturdy, and fitting equipment is not cheap though. Cheaper than it was for those in the proper time, but still very expensive haha. One day hopefully!
One piece at a time. Start with the clothing and padding first though.
I applaud the wizard how summoned this scrying eye so we may have a glimpse at this magnificent display of armed conflict.
This is what happens when you find the final boss too early
Know what's even funnier?
The fact that someone back in the Medieval days has probably said the exact same thing to someone else and iced the poor sucker in a similar manner.
I just realized that this is basically like pro wrestling but with swords and shields. The grass master is a heel type.
this is the love part of my love/hate relationship with the internet.
