Jousters are the rich dudes. They can afford a full set of armor for the lists as well as maintenance of at least one horse. In a way, nothing has changed since the middle ages 😅
@@azura6804 not to sound cruel, but there are so many horses rn that most are being sold to slaughter because people are losing their houses/land, and or means of keeping said horse's. Many in California are having to get rid of theirs because of the fires.
@@eaar i was looking at hand made armor sets and they were surprisingly cheaper than i would have thought. Not sure if they are up to snuff with these kind of sets but still looked cool and fully functional apparently. I only do horses though, been training them for most of my life, guess thats why i see the maintenance on a horse more as an investment not a cost.
I think that the reason why it hasn't picked up yet is that the revival is relatively new, it has a higher barrier of entry compared to other sports, & unlike MMA, doesn't have an already popular similar sport (Boxing) that it could attract an already established audience for. This sport does have potential to grow though.
The Jousters came in with their horses like they are the main characters! :D It's Epic to see this stuff nowadays and some of the footage even beats movies
one of my favorite videos Blair Harris has produced in 2019! can watch it endlessly! so engaging, best choices of music , best event capture! considering it was very cold ad raining that day it was a great job done! thank you Blair!
It's a work. The Ohio renisannse festival they really joust. Everyone was wearing a costume, I'm going in character next year. Except I was ready to take mine to wrestling school, dungeons and dragons people, mine is just me turned up to 11, and a bit scary looking.
Would respect it more if the correct music was used. Hardrock music on dark age stuff. Knighty shiny hard rock shit dont mix.Like strawberry and kethsup.
Meh... Make those amours from modern steel or ceramics or both, replace the wood with carbon fiber and the horses with motorcycles. Now that! That will be entertaining. Imagine the crowds in a stadium as one of these modern gladiators asks them "are you not entertained!".
I would agree with modernizing the armor or lances but replacing the horses with gas guzzling motorcycles? It takes away a huge part of jousting, riding a horse while landing a lance on your opponent's head or shoulders is very difficult. Using a motorcycle seems silly and inappropriate, it would be out of place in my opinion. There's something about watching knights in shining armor joust today like they did thousands of years ago with the same aesthetic.

it's better that some things hasn't changed
@@savedemperor8024 my family owns 5 horses. we are by no means rich.
@@thehardman9379 those kids that never saw a farm think horses are like gold

Sorry to nit pick but, that eye slit is way too big. 0:35
Did you miss the part where guys in full open faced Helms were fighting in the melee?
Thought it was going to be as violent as the knights of valor guess I was wrong
You were wrong. Shame on you.
This is awesome. Can't believe people don't care. Only 1150 views?
Because it's a stupid waste of time.
@@MrMathExpert I'm sure you are entertaining and popular with lot of friends :D
Because it doesn't have blood.

I would go this country and watch for all of the events and buy souvenirs
You can't because of covid
Do it man
Who fucking cares you nonce
@@kingyc8490 well turns out, 41 people do
Excellent swordsmanship at 6:22
Video starts at 4:30
This is... Like... The most awesome thing I ever saw!!!
4:47 damn that armor looks nice and the way it shines
I prefer 4:39
@@yaboyed5779 that one was probably quenched in seed or olive oil. It gives the tint for steel. Pretty nice upgrade for cheap.

Finally, historical jousting!

Why all the "warriors" overweight and out of shape? Lmao
They are just having fun. They most likely earned at least the right to have fun.
Damn now I wanna compete lol
youtube tilt jousting then
Nothing like Knights of Valour.
Why this isn´t an Olympic sport? Why we are not funding this?
This makes my Mount and Blade fantasy come true
Woman: we have longer lifespans
Men:
This whole video is an over edited disaster.
70,000 views - can do "much more better-er" - 1 mln (???)
Those guys fighting with swords without masks are crazy lol
It's a reenactment. More stage combat than actual sport.

who is the knight with the black shiny armour and the red cap i cant find him ???
more fair maidens pleeeese
6:37 man, that lighting, angle, camera, shit.. everything about this video is brilliant quality. Good work sir.
Man... That Mule was just LOVING all that attention!!
I was there, it was definitely awesome......then covid hit and it was not held again. Shame, it would have been even better the next year.
All these medieval jousting videos are scams because they all are overhyped music videos.
Is the dude with the red horns on his helmet Tobias Capwell?
6:21 this is illegal and dangerous in HMB... 😦
Persians were jousting the Romans off the map before any of this including an elephant joust..
A trebuchet legendary
there is an anime about this called "Walkure Romanze" xD it's good
For jousting front side armour and padding should be made even stronger than normal to absorb the damage!
Tad overproduced with these slowmos
Nice. That first piece of music was awfully dramatic for the visual content though, maybe?
I wish I could go to this
that horse needs a wide load banner
Whos here cause of the anime?
God those horses are beautiful!
Proud of my history .
2:08 local nobility? :D
thanks for not showing any actual jousting
Great video, nice music!
Would respect it more if the correct music was used. Hardrock music on dark age stuff. Knighty shiny hard rock shit dont mix.Like strawberry and kethsup.
There shouldn't be a piece of modern equipment.
It's funny to watch this and actually live in Warragul at the same time lmao
Jesus Chirst, calm down with the music
This video has completely ruined jousting for me.
hot damn those are some beautiful jousting armor
okay now time to wriye a whole fucking book
man i actually searched for this
Their horsemanship is terrible
Even their hair is so medieval
how i get me some armor
Editing needs improvement.
Awesome footage!
Super cheezey
Sir Ulrich? 😁
Sir Divish ?
Nothing happens this whole video. Booo
Yeah. Obviously people of European descent have no culture or style. 😂
Give me a break.
what
He fucking smacked the top of the lance !!!
I love being white
Meh...

That was spic
How come there are no " blacks people" in the event?
I was thinking the same thing🤣
Maybe none signed up or there aren’t many black people living in this area.
🤣🤣🤣...it because of Omicron restrictions.
