- I thought it would be interesting to see how the battle would look like without the interrupting cuts and in order of how the battlefield transpired! In the show, the battle is seen in various pieces and out of order as flashbacks by one of the main characters, James Fraser, while he is lying on the battlefield, severely injured.
About 10 times more red coats died in this clip than in the actual battle!
People forget that the British army consisted of a lot of Scottish Regiments and I emphasise the word BRITISH.
On the 11th Feb 1824, The oldest surviving Jacobite Auld Dubrach died at the age of 110 in Braemar. He fought at Pestonpans, Falkirk and Culloden. He was taken prisoner to Carlisle castle where he escaped and returned to the Highlands on the run with a price on his head. He was never recaptured. His funeral was attended by 300 people who drank 4 gallons of whiskey before his coffin was lifted. A hero and a man of honour to the last.
The comments section is just as historically illiterate as the scene itself.
This is hilarious. The Highlanders were massacred in just under an hour with few losses for the red coats who consisted of scots and Irish as well as English: 300 dead and injured redcoats and almost 2000 highlanders killed wounded or captured.
A Romanized organised Scotland never happened which gave the English the advantage.
its funny how many people think it was the highland clans versus English army division when in actual fact it was majority of Scottish divisions with 1 or 2 English for support.
Finally, the Highlanders won this battle after several cinematic tries.
The most successful battle of culloden in history
Did Mel Gibson direct this?.. I get the impression 🤔
What actually happened: the jacobite army was devastated by musket fire and canister shot while charging across the difficult terrain. Cumberland's left was briefly penetrated but the scottish jacobites routed fairly quickly. 50 royalist troops died, compared to thousands on the jacobite side.

Man, watching this you'd think this wasn't the battle that totally eviscerated and ended the Jacobite Rising
I love how formations just dissappear as soon as the melee starts.
A couple of observations. Apart from a brief breakthrough on the left, which put the Jacobites right into the rear rank fire, Cumberland's combined English, Welsh, and Scots formations did not break ranks.
And I thought braveheart was inaccurate !
Dude just ran across a field, got a bayonet in him, had a one on one grapple with another guy, fought a bunch of others, got his leg slashed open and he still manages to overpower an uninjured guy who just got off his horse. My ass.
I visited the battlefield a few years ago and admit I wasn't too sure there would be anything to see. After all it is just a field. We walked the field where the charge took place with all the little stone monuments and the "well" where many died. It was very inspirational. Since my background is English and Scottish it was particularly meaningful.
Years of training but death by grass.
My direct ancestors, the MacKintosh clan of Clan Chattan, fought at Culloden. Of all the clans, the MacKintosh suffered the worst casualties, as reflected in the fact they have three mass grave markers where most clans only had one.
