Given that the focus of this video is about the Templars, I feel like the title is misnamed when you consider that they weren’t the typical knight

If you're interested in the Knights Templar, this video is for you. If you're interested in life for the average medieval knight, this is NOT the video for you.

Sherman didn't say "war is hell," he said "war is cruelty, and you cannot refine it."

Stabbing with swords uncommon because maile was too effective? Um no Stabbing is the most effective way to penetrate maile with a sword or similarly bladed weapon 😂 no doubt part of the reason the spear was the most common weapon on the medieval battlefield other then it being easier to wield and cheaper to make then alot of other weapons

Thank you so much. Fighting in the Holy Land, wouldn’t they have been roasting in that armour? Remarkable people - I think. One can not deny their bravery snd to earn the admiration of Saladin ( apologies for spelling) - incredible. Their betrayal by the king of France, appalling. Thank you again 🙏🙏🙏🙏👵🇦🇺

Comparing medieval war horses to an M1A1 Abrams battle group feels like a bit much. Like, I get that a charge of heavy cavalry would be terrifying, but have you seen what a tank can do?

I must admit. Its a little weird watching a documentary about the crusades, and not witnessing a thinly veiled smear attack on western colonialism. Perhaps "things" have changed so much in Europe now, that the propaganda machines have finally been silenced, and historians are now allowed to return to their academic roots. I for one enjoyed this small gem here immensely.

Chain mail is a common misnomer. The individual rings were interlocked. A four in one pattern was way method frequently used. Rightly called ring mail or just mail. From the Latin macula or net. Forgive the misspelled if it was incorrect.

I wish those who start wars had to actually fight in them. Don’t you think that there would be less wars.

I like how their understanding of a knight training is just a man half dressed by himself wildly swinging a sword around like a 7 year old.

“Everyone was wearing chainmail, so stabbing with the point of the sword was ineffective, the primary tactic was to slash and cut…” this video just lost all credibility. Chainmail was primarily for protection against cuts and slashing, it’s weakness was thrusts from sharp points…
