Yes, jaguar were in the area for them to stylize and construct their look. One note: the pictured "jaguar" was, in fact, a cheetah . ;)
I was just about to comment on that, as i saw yours.
The images don't match the words in most of this video.. they were describing Immortal Persian soldiers using short swords, and the image was carrying an axe!
Yes, that was a cheetah..the editor may be a cheetah too! Lol
Exactly. The cheetah stands for agility but not exactly for strength. And it was unknown to the Aztecs.
Having made and worn the Lorica segmentata the real amazing thing about is how much flexibility and freedom of movement the set provides.
Ditto (bar making it) and it is in a way, like wearing a really heavy t-shirt.
It strikes a great balance on weight, protection, mobility and the price and effort to make it in mass production. However, usually bracers and leg protection was worn with it, if one could afford it. My Viking Chainmail basic and the Visby scale improved kit do only work when using ships for raid party logistics. Anyone unarmored would simply outrun, exhaust and single you out to gang up on you.
I'm pretty sure that late medieval plate armor is way more known than lorica segmentata. Over all most people first think of knight in full plate armor when armor is mentioned, not the roman legionary.
The war elephants get me everytime. The original battle tanks. Thank you so much for this video.
5:00 - They did wear armour. The Aztec (Jaguar + Eagle) warriors wore cotton armour called 'Ichcahuipilli', like a medieval gambeson, capable of stopping arrows, swords, darts and even musket shots!
I think a gambeson cant stop a musket shot lmao
@@perrywithcigar217 Capable is possible, not definitive; especially at extreme range.
Shit, I'd rather be wearing one than not, if I was shot by a musket!
@@TheEyez187 I agree with you in this point
@@perrywithcigar217 I've just remembered it wasn't just as I'd mentioned it. They also repeatedly soaked it in extremely salty brine water. Water would evaporate leaving it with a salty crystalline reinforcement. Actually quite ingenius!
@@TheEyez187 thats cool af
Just one thing about those Polish Hussars. They had those wings for two reasons. 1st is it was decoration, 2nd - the much more important was, cause of Mongolian empire's expansion. During their invasion their riders used Lasso to pull down the riders from their horses, but those wings made it ineffective, cause it was not able to fully fix the rider due to them, and it gave the rider chance to maneuver and eventually break it.
First few minutes. Winged hussars. The thing that made them very efficient was the 20 foot lances that were hollow. An innovative and light weapon.
6:33 the yellow armor belongs to Qing Dynasty, it was not a Mongol armor.
I love this channel because of the content and the voice of Charlie Sheen telling me a story.
😂 I thought he sounded familiar
I watch simple history with him explain the history content
Damn sucks that the thumbnail was clickbait, looks interesting
It was some kind of puffer fish armor. But yeah I hate how he talks about something and the image of what he is talking about has already passed or has yet to come. When he was talking about the mongols camp he showed a civil war camp you can see the muzzle loader if you pay attention.
there were thousands of armors in the medieval times (...)
*starts with 17 century armor
I came here because of the thumbnail, I didn't watch the video. GREAT THUMBNAIL!!!!!
"couirre bouwili" omg 😂 can't listen to this without thinking of all the people having a bad time trying to learn french
4:32 "It was the Aztec belief that the Jaguar..."
**Shows a cheetah**
In the defense of Carthage human hair was woven into armor too that seemed to repel arrows. Pretty ingenious use of whatever you could get your hands on.
Love your videos 😍😍😍😍
Great show
"and the winged Hussars arrive!"
You forgot the most powerful armor of all! Plot armor
😂
War elephants were smart enough to know who the enemy was and attacked them
Very nice video
The tree of knowledge !
A masterpiece of misinformation and conflicting text vs incorrect pictures to support narrative
Chainmail or more properly mail armor doesn't spread the force of the impact, it is as flexible as a t-shirt, armor needs to be ridgin to spread the impact, like plate armor. Allso mail was very rarely used alone, it was in most cases used with gambeson, a thick layered cloth armor, that alone could stop most sword strikes, but mainly used as padding under mail, cus mail doesn't protect from blunt force trauma.
Speaking of oyoroi but showing video of a man wearing tosei gusoku.
Thanks. Good vid.
Top 15, on a top 5 video channel with that "voice" from other channels. Totally skilled thanks
That's a cheetah footage, not a jaguar
Shut Up!!!!!!!!
The silk catching the arrow from a horseman's back is while riding and letting a pillow like pocket of silk sometimes sticking out feet behind the riders back, and when it was filled with air the multiple layers of silk soft fould catch the arrow way before it could cause any injury to the rider, it had to be filled with a giant air pocket to stop an arrow. You make it sound like they wore a leather under shirt and that stopped arrows.....
You are trying really hard to make this work. If that was the case, why was the detail that's always retold that they were silk? All the reasons why after are just speculation, like they could be pulled out etc. and are needless: they wore silk because that's what they had.
Me: To be a jaguar warrior you have to defeat and kill a jaguar, right?
Jaguar warrior: NO.
The silk shirt myth is just that, a myth.
Trust me when I say mail armor barrely spreads a strikes impact, the gambeson ( which I'm surpised diden't get a Mention since that type of armor was used true out history and by many cultures around the world with even forms of this type of armor bieng used in the modern millitairy in the form of stab vests) that was worn underneat the mail did that job. Gambeson exists out of layers of linnen filled up with thicklayers of wol stacked over eachother and was increadably effectif even though it might not sound like it. Stopping slashes and cut's from swords by them selfs many lower end soldiers true out history and even country used these forms of padded armor. Also where are the brigendine's on this list?
Never any love for Gambeson and especially none for padded. Chain is overrated, padded is by far, the most practical and cost effective armor out there.
@@danielhomant2832 well mail is not over rated either it was increadably effectif as a armor bassicly offering almost compleet protection against cuts and even to a degree against trusts. I would even say mail is also underrated. That's why again people around the world true out time used it. But I agree with you compared to gambeson that get's no love at all it's overrated. I also purposefully used jackchains instead of vambraces and I don't have thig plates but mail to not cover my gambeson. Doing this even has historical pressence sow my 15century full plate harnas is still historicaly plausibel/correct. I just want to show my gambeson sow people that are lesser known about the subject of armor would ask me about it and I can tell them what it is.
Sounds like the weird history guy
"Was the most deadly cat"?
IS the most deadly cat, thank you...
Describes jaguars, shows clip of cheetah.
the voice of the narattor is from simple history i think
It is! 😉
ah yes, Jaguar Warriors (shows footage of a cheetah)
Eastern Roman Cataphractii Terminator armour, wait no what!! :D
Is it just me, or does the narrator’s voice give off Charlie Sheen vibes?
tlingit armour is pretty cool as well
.2 percent of people seeing this will have the best day ever tomorrow and something amazing will happen.
The other 99.8 can go to hell
That's a cheetah, not a jaguar.
Top 15 incredible types of armor -> picture a jaguar warrior that has no armor... hmmmm
大鎧 is beautiful
It really is
Polish Hussar armours just look like the Ottoman Sipahi Armours, except the wings of course.
As cool as the winged Husars were, they are not at all medieval.
I tried not to cringe during a few points, but Kataphraktoi wearing bronze swords? Surely not!
wow
Why show a Cheetah when talking about Jaguars?? haha
#15 I can't be the only one who heard Sabaton at the Winged Hussars mention...
Same
They copy sarissa from Phillip of Macedonias phalanx
How are you gonna open this video by talking about the thousands of armors out there, and then only showing 15? I want to see them all.
the inmortals were not feared becasue of their killing or Military skill, they were feared because as Mushu said in Mulan "They growth like Lilies" they had replacements and once you killed one another "inmortal" took the place immediately.
"Deadliest animal in South América"... the Aztecs were in Mexico, and Mexico is in NORTH America, South America would be the Incas. Aztecs North America, Mayans North and Central, Incas South
Well, the animal that was shown was a cheetah, and those don’t even live in South America. I’ve officially lost confidence in the accuracy of this channel.
Mayan's also in north America
Excellent summary. You are exactly right.
Central America is just part of North America as it's part of the plate. The Dorian pass is also the Continent division fault line area in Panama. Basically most use Panama canal as the division mark instead
The jaguar is the deadliest animal in South america(aside from humans). The statement stands....I have spoken
Why the Cheetah at 4:34 ?
only one thing i would point out. 1st chainmail wasn't hauberk but lorica hamanta :-) also roman.
Which the Romans learned from the Celtic tribes who are believed to have brought it west with them. It's funny,, most people associate the lorica segmentata with Rome, but it was the lorica hamata that I believe got the most use.
@@acebongboy yep. that's true, but let's say, Romans used it more profoundly than celtic tribes :-)
in all rome wargames, pictures and movies you get to see lorica segmentata, because it looks cool. EVERYONE has red tunic and lorica segmentata. :D (segmentata was probably easier to manufacture, i would say. I'ts definitly not as tedius as rings
They captured opponents for ransom first, not sacrifice. It was 5 opponents they had to capture to become a knight. Anyone could become a knight. Women who gave birth were also given Knighthood.
Perfect zombie suit in thumbnail
Best armor is nukes, because they cause so much damage no one can hit you back. Guaranteed protection.
What about the enemy’s doomsday machine?
And the best way to stop burglar's from breaking into your house is to burn it down😉
@@thatoneguy7603 : Tested anti. theft tactics= Eliminate in an innocent, subtle, accident like way those criminals- having 2-3 records of crime law violations.. The spy group of peoples were very experts in such arts of "clean elimination"-like : hit and run road accident, fake suicide by hanging or poison ingestion, drug overdozed.. building jumping, accidental stair fall, etc.. Dozens of subtle murder methods...

Can’t Beat Me
Your first comment
Seriously you commented like 4 times
4:34 iIt's not a jaguar, it's a cheetah. 🙂
I’m glad I’m not the only one that eats leather.
👍⭐
What was that click-bait image from (the dude with the big round helmet). I was hoping to see what that was. Good video none-the-less.
That jaguar was a cheeta
Most of the time the romans used ordinary chainmail. They were way easier to repair on the field.
Check out Motion Medley! Top 5s, Top 10s, and More!
I have yet to see thorn armour
It was made from puffer fish. But I'm still trippin over the image of the mongol camp because they had muzzleloaders right that's why they were so deadly.
And Third
Your third
Aztecs didn’t have borders we have today, and likely spread south
Jaguars armor, shows a cheetah.
I wanted to see what the armour on the thumbnail was.
The jaguar armor is about as useful as a Nerf sword.
Talking about Aztecs, showing the Mayan calendar 🙄
And they did wear armour. Could you do some basic research please?
We say" cuir booyee " in France to say boiled leather
That wasn’t no jaguar looked like a cheetah
5:02 "Jaguar attire..... fearsome sight..."
Lolz not in this era.
Lol thats a cheetah not a jaguar.
Is that the simple history narrator?
Showed a cheetah and called it a jaguar, showed tulum mayan ruins about aztecs 🤩🤩🤩
By jaguar you mean a cheetah right ? :3
Bru the elegant is is a different BREAD
Narrator: "The Roman soldiers wore only sandals".. - Me: While almost all other were wearing bag-like "boots"...
These sandals were a great part of the success that the Romans had back then.
The most armies didn't fight at Winter, and if you look at a nap you'll see that the Roman empire was mostly in the Mediteranian - warm part of Eurasia/Africa, apart from Britannia, of course.
4:35 CHEETAH!!!
I would be scared to fight against an army that rode on elephants. 6000 elephants? That would be quite a battle.
Just get 6000 monks, wololooo!
What armor is that in the thumbnail?
Thank you! I've often wondered what some of those pieces are armor were called and employed.
8min late what did I miss
I thought I would see cool ones like the kiribati armor or tinglit.
this is a professional operation, not some average youtuber. all u have to do is mirror such a channel and $$$$$$.
This put me to sleep immediately he’s got a soothing voice and the music was to soft
Is that Charlie Sheen narrating? Can't imagine someone actually trying to emulate him.
I've heard MUCH stuff but never did anyone pronounce it "Laendsknekt" lmao
Tod from tod's workshop channel has a video where he tests arrows vs silk, the silk does absolutely nothing, the arrows go clean thrue it.
The silk didn't enter the wound, which helps to reduce infection. So it's useful, but stories were exagarrated over time.
What's the movie shown at 18:36?
Actually historically and not based on stories, war elephants were not efficient at all, and the most used in a battle was around 100.
Read the book "war elephants"
Aztecs fighting in pijamas
The hussars were POLISH, not hungarian
You should match the videos and the speach. Talking about the Mongols and showing american civil war tents?!
Jaguar warriors were not the most elite, I don't know if you know what Otomi or the Shorn ones are.
