1.He didn't twirl his blade(s). Everyone knows you twirl your sword to show how badass you are
2.They attacked him all at once. Everyone knows that when swarming a single target , you are polite and patiently wait for your turn.
3.He didn't remove his helm to let his hair flow free. Everyone knows that helm removal + backstory flashback is needed to win the fight.
4.His armor actually works.Everyone knows that plate armor is an old word for "cardboard"
P.S
This was freaking awesome.
Yes the twirling of the blade sometimes distracts you that your enemy will take that as an advantage to slice you down.
@@latter-daysaintbatman2679 most blade twirling is done during exercises to increase wrist and forearm strength and flexibility, as well as confidence (it's easy to hit yourself). There is some battle use but not much
What a awesome break down of the fight!
@@dflaming1371 The only real use for twirling is if you want to prevent a fight and you use the twirl before you engage in order to signal you are skilled and the enemy better not fight you.
Other than that its pretty useless, you can be stabbed in the gut before your are midway through the first twirl loop.

@@huseyinfurkankardiyen2104 It's what happens when you skip dialog in side quests to continue the story..
I like how the bandits were actually intimidated by the knight. It's like seeing a tank rolling down the street to kill you.
To a bandit in the middle ages a trained fully armoured knight was probably your worst nightmare or certainly worst case situation, violence ruled back then and a knight was the pinnacle of supremacy on the battlefield for centuries for a reason.
It’s all tough guy when they are in a group running at him from a hill top but when you’re the front guy staring at that mountain of steal and pain you aren’t going to be the first guy to charge him.
to be fair he did teleport in from thin air id be worried to
@@theblindbandit6533 Yep. Especially when there's guys with shields or light armor to die 1st. I meant go in 1st 😮
There are countless times that one dude being intimidating has changed the course of history. Bellisarious took 300 men to confront a rebellion of 9000 soldiers. And won.
Knight: (sees he is surrounded by 20 men)
Also Knight: "ah, it beith a faire battle, then."
"I doth be surrounded, I can swing my sword in any direction now"
@@censorduck "Be my troth, fair maid! Thy savior's sword is bigger than all of theirs!"
@Floron as I've heard in another comment. Victory for a knight in a situation like this is highly difficult but not impossible. Though one important factor I'd like to mention is the fear he'd create. Even after the rest of the camp attacks they're already scared of this Knight who appeared out of thin air. Then see that he's beating members of their gang quickly and efficiently. That fear would probably give him sufficient openings to win.

@James Flores Full plate is pretty amazing stuff. Especially battlefield armor. ;)
@@ryandunham1047 i would expect to a well seasoned knight in top form could easily go through 10 armed peasants. it must have been great to be top of your game in that position back then....... fucking crazy lives those people lead.
To be completely fair it's a bit of both here. The armor is real, the knight's skill is real, but the brigands are a bit goofier and disorganized than necessary.
Kathleen Delcourt yeah if they just tackled him and stabbed him up as a group in the armpits, face and neck I think this would’ve been over quick all it really would take is probably 3-4 blokes one to take the sword blow one to tackle him or 2 and then stab stab
Brilliant. 4 things that make this perfect for me.
1. Armor deflecting a light crossbow bolt, which is precicely what would happen. Bolts puncture at most, but don't fully penetrate steel plate.
2. Not only do I love the fact that it shows how well medieval armor can protect against both melee and missile weapons, but even more importantly, that a trained and experienced knight would deliberately allow to endure a lot of punishment knowing that his plate, padding and mail will absorb most of it, while wasting no time in counter attacking and slaying the enemies. Amazing.
3. The thugs actualy know what they are doing by deliberately aiming at the knight's exposed body parts, which is a rare, fantastic and very welcome level of detail.
4. Simple and contained story.
Five, woman stabs him in the back and jumps on black horse with the last one of them to run off to the towns tavern... wait thats to close to real life. Lol
@@machinguy94 Oof.
@@machinguy94 If you're pessimist, yes.
yeah he's actually using his armor as a tool as a knight probably did
@@machinguy94 similar stuff happens a lot in highschool but it rarely ever gets to that bonnie and clyde point. I wouldn't recommend meeting women off the internet outside of public places etc. you can have a gun in your car etc but thats more likely to cause a problem.
I love how it isn't played off as the knight being cocky, but rather steadfast. Its as if he knew that within that battle perhaps he'd find his Calvary. He gets battered and stabbed in rapid succession but keeps fighting.
He is supposed to represent archangel Michael or at least his champion so he would not act emotional like human but calculated and task oriented. In another words, the manliest fucking thing.
@@17MrLeon An archangel wouldn't struggle against bandits. I'd say a knight acting in his behalf is more likely.
@@miguelcondadoolivar5149 says who? Besides this dude apears from thin air the moment the archangel medalion vanishes in her hands. Or do you suggest that the woman in act of desperation was performing street art magic trick to the goons?
@@17MrLeon I didn't say that the knight wasn't sent by the Archangel, but, honestly, do you think a being with Michael's power level would struggle against those bandits? He would probably kill them all in a single swing.
@@miguelcondadoolivar5149 We dont know what his powers are, but he pretty much killed them all, and to kill them he had to manifest him self in physical world in physical body. Besides He is described as wearing shining armour they literaly make him look like him.
That 13 minutes pretty much sums up most of what Skallagrim, Shadiversity, Metatron, and Scholagladiatoria, have been telling me about armour and fighting styles in the middle ages. Thanks Adorea Olomouc, entertaining, inspiring and informative.

mate this is not realistic in the slightest lol the man in armour would defo die they would all just start launching stones at him wait till he gets tired move in then sell his stuff

oh no i’m fully armored and some guys are throwing rocks whatever will i do
use my legs
@@username-yc3bd he can only chase one person at a time and they will likely out run him any way as he is in armour its good for formation fighting not chasing down skirmishers on foot
@@billdoor5025
he’s completely suited up in plate armor if he is barely fazed by an arrow doubt that couple of rocks will kill him
and there’s nothing stopping him from just chasing each of them down or until they run off

@@huseyinfurkankardiyen2104 Haha, good one!
@Holden Mcgroine Even then the early pistols would struggle but yah any rifle and it was game over.
Stephen J to be fair even that isn’t exactly true. If you look at the pike and shot era that followed the medieval era, armor was still worn on battlefields and was more than capable of stopping full bore musket rounds. The decrease in the use of armor was actually a change in the focus of tactics, focusing more on mobility and maneuverability. Heavier armor would have made it difficult to achieve the same amount of mobility as lighter troops.
For once armour that actually does something
And not just blatantly trying to strike the most protected parts of the body, instead aiming at gaps and vulnerable areas
This is truthfully one ofnthe best attempts at accurate armor I've seen in any kind of fantasy film in a loooong time. It has some major issues, mostly reanctorisms, but it's pretty damn good!
They couldve used a different helmet, maybe something that covers the face entirely
@@The_uglybastard I agree; a visor for the barbute would be badass
@@appleyanimator6541 and completely non historical. Go watch Knyght errant discuss the frankenarnor that is a visited Barbuta.
The barbuta is not what I was talking about btw. It's not a perfect reproduction, but that's how they where worn, and this harness is fundamentally right with that helmet.
I appreciate the fact that he actually used his armor as much of a weapon as the sword... You never hardly ever see this in any re-enactment... Also amazingly the "bad guys" we're intelligent enough to actually attack his vulnerable areas. I would consider this good to very good as far as realism is concerned.
Yeah. Also, the bad guys didn't stand around and wait their turn to fight the knight one-on-one, but attacked as a group, as would happen in a real fight.
@@Decrepit_Productions oh yeah swarm tactics are best tactics when you are literally under armed and armored but one or two of yours will definitely die in the charge.

The best thing was. Knights back then with full armor are walking tanks but have weak points. They did everything excellent! You can tell he is not only skillful in combat but also a veteran. Everything in this video was performed perfectly 🥰

I love how the bandits actually recognise that he is wearing plate armour and at times try to cut or stab the gap inbetween the plates, rather than just slashing at it.
Indeed
Indeed. This is what makes this video compeling.
And that the knight knows it as well and that's were he's most defensive
@@avichaid6021 mhm
Finally some real shit
This is probably one of the best portrayals of a skilled warrior in real plat armour I have ever scene, absolute respect. Great and experienced warriors in plate armour was a modern version of a tank against light infantry.
I remember a story from the third crusade where 3 fully armoured swiss knights held off over 200 men on a bridge they were guarding by a city, the 3 knights not just held but killed nearly all 200 men and the rest just withdrew out of shear terror that was before them. (some story's said it was over a thousand, but realistically it was probably 200 because it took a group of men a whole day to clear all the dead bodies afterwards, no bull crap).
Imagine 3 knights like in this video on a secured position like a bridge or gate, absolute meat grinder for the poor fools who charge them.
That sounds intriguing! Could you please share some more information on this? I would love to read up on this battle.
No not like in this video armor and weapons in this wideo are like 14 15 century
That story probably didn't happen but it is cool noentheless.
No matter how many times i watch this, it always gives me chills. This is how legends were born. Nary a single word, but a whole story was told. Perfect and awe inspiring every single second.
Best detail: he actually wears his helmet because it saves his life, instead of taking it off to show the actor’s face. Thank you!
Yeah I never actually got that an action movies, pretty sure the set or costume designers could do some really awesome stuff with designing the helmets to make em more unique you know.
@@anarchyandempires5452 true but unfortunately you don't pay an actor millions to not show their face. Even if you can make them stand out its part of trying to draw people to your film.
Well it is said that knights would sometimes raise their visors to see and breath better but that isn’t a problem with this helmet
@@spence0703 That is true. Visor down was usually used especially against arrows, since it constrained vision and breathing.
I also like that he picks up his sword, which is probably worth 100 times more than any weapon that those bandits have

tbf a lot is still his, I actually like the fact that they still went for his weak points and he did in fact get hurt. Too many characters don't ever get injured
at first, i thought they Knight u mentioned was the one waiting for our knight at home
This is absolutely my favorite video ever. No book, movie or game compares. Such a perfect archetypal depiction of knightly valor, and such great performance, moves me to tears every time. Maybe I'm overreacting but it really hits something in me.
Agree. The Knight of Hope is the greatest knight I have ever seen in years.
Absolutely so! As a man, I cry a bit every time I watch it, deeply moved by the knight's valor. Tears are the physical representation of deep emotions. We might have lived before, in a different time. Who knows what's going on.
@@AlexGorskov Yeah, and today about knights what people think is that they are turtles in too heavy armor, and wielding swords weighing insane amounts, and then also the ideals of them. Like in this video i like how this large group is nervous as they see they are dealing with knight in full armor because back then people would have known how serious it is. They were higher class, but they started martial training often i think at something like 7 years old. Today we just dont have anything to compare to that we have SF troops sure but they dont start serious military training other than as adults. Then back in this period the armor this knight wears maked him in to very difficult to kill or even wound. Hell yeah i think even in reality if actual knight in full kit just suddenly strolls up to fight you some regular bandits starts to shit their pants
At this point nearly everything is a freaking deconstruction, and a genuine virtuous character might as well be a thing of legend… I was half-expecting seeing yet another "subverting expectations" moment up until the credits roll.
this is the most epic medieval action I have ever seen, realistic and even tho there is no dialog, the story almost made me cry, wich is fucking rare. you guys should be making full lenghts movies, this is better than anything holywood will ever come up with
Honestly, apart from the fight scene (Which is amazing), I really want to give credit of admiration to the actress.
I mean, she is REALLY terrified, wounded, exhausted, and out of options.
And instead of just playing with her face (Like a lot of actors would do), she let her whole body experience this, she's having trouble catching her breath, she can barely move, every inch of her is in constant tremor, and she is basically broken. And that's kinda the point, right? The last thing that she held on to was hope, and that's the only thing that wasn't broken.
Beautiful.
Couldnt said it better.
Beautifully put.
Amen.
Should get some kind of award.
Very true, and very well stated.
AGREED!!! She did an AMAZING JOB!!!
Probably one of the few videos to show how damn difficult it is to kill someone in full plate armor, especially when you're not in full plate armor.
Yeah. A lot of people dont understand that a good suit of armor was the equivalent of a modern day tank.
When I saw that bolt ping off I nearly cried.
it may be difficult in duel, but not in this case as in the video. Cuz no matter how good is you and your armor, you cant stand a chance against three experienced fighters in real fight, at any moment they just can ram you by shield and grab you to lay down, or strong leg kick and you fall). Anti armor weapons cheap and common to, like maces, war hammers. And god bless you, dont be striked by Helberd or Poleaxe. And chainmail armor common thing to, try to deal with it by sword, and you would be surprised, how good it is can be with gambeson or other padded cloth.
@@EmersionX The problem is you have to be trained to fight like that. An experience fighter can and will often possess the right abilities to defeat a mob if they are in the right environment, which we do see here in the Knight's tactics.
And unfortunately, that's exactly what this group was: an uncoordinated mob of brigands unaccustomed to fighting a trained and experienced knight wearing heavy armor. Sure, they had anti-armor weapons, but those are not one-hit kill weapons. You need to know when and where to use them... which these guys don't.
The thing to keep in mind is that these guys are brigands, not trained soldiers. And I kind of imagine that a Knight showing up at their doorstep caused a great deal of panic. Sure, experienced militia and men-at-arms would probably take him down. But experienced these men were not.
@@Tracer_Krieg Look , you dont need to be trained with weapon at all, you just ram with shield when some body distract a knight, you safely can hug a knight then, and your fellows now can help you to lay him down and thats is. By the way, you can do one good hit in the helmet by mace or hammer, often ppls fall or get stuned after that to. Brigands always had dangerous fighters like deserters, hunters, mercenaries. And knight superiority only when he has armor+horse+lance. Even so, history knows how knighthood lose to well orginized , mercenaries who wear only cloth and polearms. In real life, if it is not a duel, then personal combat skills do not play a big role at all.
Training is important because of fear. If you notice, the brigands do not immediately swarm the Knight, instead waiting for someone brave enough to do it and then they followed him. Hence why the Knight was able to engage as dispatch them in smaller groups.
Fighting a Knight requires group training to overcome that fear, which these guys do not have. If they did, then yes this knight would've been screwed.
Additionally, getting a good hit isn't that simple. First, you need to know where to hit him as his helmet was designed to disperse damage because of it's sloping. Second, you need to actually hit him, and that's not easy to do on someone that is moving and is actively trying to kill you. Third, you need to hit him properly. There were several instances where they did, but were unable to generate enough force to actually hurt him because of bad positioning and placement.
In many ways, this is akin to the hallway scene in Old Boy. Again, group fear and herding prevented them from over running one guy with a hammer. The same happens here.
Again, if these guys were properly drilled and disciplined, then this knight would be dead.
I love this so much you cant even imagine. Historical accuracy. Knights were the Delta force of their day. Trained from a very young age in combat. Swords reflecting off plate armor, the crossbow arrow, all of it. The areas, namely the segment joints were the only real weak points in armor like that. That adrenaline dump puking was a nice touch because that does happen. Fully armored or not, fighting that many, your adrenaline would be off the charts. One other great touch i really liked is you can see the grey in the knights facial hair. The fact he lived that long is a testament of a seasoned warrior.
One like is not enough to express how much i love this short movie. I've never loved something so much. Veronika Mala is an amazing actress, she deserves big roles, and Adorea swordfighting is a great team. This story express the true meaning of the word Knight. Thank you for making this, you are the best.
Thank you
@@martinturecek27 Thank to you guys for making amazing contents.
The bandits represent everyone who says they could take on a knight and win.
Edit:
So this comment exploded with a ton of debates, definitely no time to respond to them all. I'll address as best I can.
I can say from experience that fighting an armored knight who knows what he is doing is incredibly difficult. I've done HEMA and SCA combat for about three years now, when I first got into it I had five years of fencing at my back. I knew how to handle a sword and was confident in my abilities. For my first few months I got my ass absolutely handed to me, embarrassingly so. I'd suit up in loaned armor, get out there, and get throttled by literally every other armored fighter there. As I got better I figured it would be easier. I was wrong. Turns out they were going easy on me when I was getting my ass beat like a drum and now they could actually put some effort into it. I'd get nervous going into fights against better knights even though I was covered in plate, anyone who has ever gotten rocked by rattan or a steel longsword knows exactly why. Somewhere out there is a video of my armored qualifying bout where I'm getting my ass beat by a viking while desperately yelling out every shot he lands on me while I try not to die for two minutes. And that was after about half a year of training weekly with these guys.
I've seen fencers take on 3 opponents at the same time and win against people who had been training with us for months. Even if you've got a plan to group up on someone, unless you train on it repeatedly it almost never works. People get nervous, nobody wants to engage the guy who views you as little more than an obstacle between him and his next water break. Your reaction time might not sync up with the guy next to you, he's dead before you can engage, now it's 2v1, then the next guy goes down, now you're 1v1. Anything more than four people on one and you're in the way of everyone else more than threatening the other guy, AND you're more hesitant to strike unless someone else starts it, no to mention if the first guys to try it go down in the attempt. That's also a safe situation in training, where more importantly than anything you can't run away. In bigger battles I regularly see people flat out avoid and go around knights that are stomping people because they don't want to be a part of that mess.
Could these bandits bring down a knight? Certainly. They've got the numbers, the knight is still human, he's not completely invincible. Every fight goes different, but is it unrealistic to say his odds weren't horrid? No. I've done fights with multiple unarmored combatants against one in armor. There are few things more demoralizing than watching a man completely ignore your attack because he knows from experience that you won't land that stab in his chain at the right angle while he drops your buddy. And that's in a controlled environment where everyone is trained and wearing protection. The nuts you would need to charge a man who is not only better than you, and you both know it, but virtually invincible as well borders on suicidal. We're dealing with men wearing gambesons with helmets at most who MIGHT have been in a battle or two I they haven't just robbed people. Even if they had experience it likely means they've seen what knights can do and are well aware of how dangerous they are. Those bandits must of had some of the biggest cajones in Europe or one brain cell between them when they watched all their buddies get demolished and think "Yeah I can take that."
I'm not half bad anymore, I teach Lichtenauer and other styles I've learned and studied. I've got multiple tournament victories under my belt now with various weapons and armor configurations, and I can safely say in that situation as a bandit I would have taken a moment to rethink my life choices while giving that knight a wonderful view of my ass disappearing over the horizon.
In all fairness -. I know that this is a highly choreographed stylized piece, and I don't fault them at all for that it was very enjoyable - that knight would have been very very dead. Certainly these bandits were not highly trained soldiers, but they fought with basically complete disregard of even the usual kind of tactics that anyone who was picked up a sword, Spear, and a bow would understand. It's one thing to say that maybe he would have bested three or four, or maybe five of them, but I somehow don't think 20 at once, considering that they weren't exactly armed with clubs and pitchforks.
@@Laotzu.Goldbug I think you are kind of undervaluing how good knights were and the siege of Antioch when Bohemond led a charge against the persian army of 12k he routed them with only 700 Heavy knights Edit:12k
@@prometheus7565 honestly I'm really not. I can't speak to 12th or 13th century Warfare, but I can speak to modern military operations, having served in the Marine Corps myself. There is a tremendous effect of efficacy through numbers. One guy can do something, two guys can do three times as much, four guys can do a multitude more. You cannot really compare a battle, with large formations, maneuver, over a period of many hours or a day, with a single combatant. What happened during the Crusades, or other times in medieval warfare in general is a very different dynamic. 800 guys is still a lot of guys no matter how much you slice it, and a true battle is very different than a duel.
In this scenario, even if this knight was highly skilled, and highly-trained, he is simply overmatched. No doubt, he might take three or four, or maybe even a half dozen of those guys with him, and wound a few more, but they're going to get him in the end. In this video - again which I understand is designed to show off sword fighting choreography so that's what it focuses on - the bad guys, the bandits, are ignoring even basic stuff they could do. First, when the big group shows up and there's twenty of them, they could hold back a little bit, and let their crossbowman friend put a couple of bolts on target. He doesn't even start shooting until basically the end of the fight. Even one or two penetrating shots into a major limb is going to reduce the knights combat effectiveness dramatically. Instead he basically does nothing. In addition, they all bunch up together and attack him from the front. They don't even bother to form a perimeter around him, spread out in a circle. That's not advanced military tactics, that's like caveman hunting intuition. In addition, they could have picked up some weapons with better reach, there were a number of spears hanging around that camp. But even just with those basic things, making use of their ranged weapons, spreading out, attacking him from all sides, trying to grab or immobilize some of his limbs, have four or five guys pressing on him all together with their shields negating the reach of his two handed blade, and have other guys just hit him with whatever the hell they have, stab him in his joints whatever. I'm sure it wouldn't be pretty, but that guy would be very very dead, unless he is Lancelot with the blessing of the Lady of the Lake, in which case I guess he could kill them all with laser beams from his eyes.
Just my two cents from having some minor fencing experience in high school, and having gone through the Marine combatives course and seeing the limitations of what one man - even a very fit and highly skilled combatant - can do against multiple fully grown men with true hostile intent.
*Edit:* fixed all those spelling errors
@@prometheus7565 there is still a big difference to routing a large enemy force to going one vs twenty. All it takes is for confusion and panic to overtake the enemy force as well as breakdown of command and order. But one man against twenty people? Assuming they all try to fight him, they can really just gang up on him.
@@Laotzu.Goldbug if you know the first one is gonna die who gets in to the range of that guy ... i would not like too risk my life for a crying bitch. Thats why they did not attack all at once for they do have a lag of discipline and propably never faced a knight before. I think its realistic. And i trust these guys they have experience in sword fighting its their passion. I believe they delivered their passion as accurate as possible. @Adorea Oloumouc thanks for the goose bumps.
I guess this is what happens when your armour isn’t made out of tissue paper
I espacially like that they mostly aim at the weak points of their opponents armor and not just try to carve in a breastplate with a sword
@@munrowrouge18 Im sure your movie would be much better.
@@davenmarge1 i didn't mean that in irony, that's a thing many big budget movies with loads of money spend on experts don't do. But in this short movie they do. They go for the joints in his armor (weakpoints), aswell as the unarmored part of his neck to bring him down.
@@munrowrouge18 Don't forget the stab in the back of his leg near the end of the 2nd wave. Since the plating was only facing forward they were able to get a bit of meat there.

All those movie makers out there : fire those so called choreographers and "specialists". And hire these guys. Plz
Big studios answer wide range of viewers and payers, they know why they're doing what they're doing, especialy when it comes to hiring specialists and choreographers. Majority of people doesn't care about realism, it would be a suicide for them to make a big budget movie or series like Troy or GoT based on this style of choreography, better for them to please millions of payers than a handful of experts or HEMA practicioners. Sad but true.
And not only for the acting and stunts but also for the camera and editing work.
@@JamesCh. Do you really think this type of choreography (and camera work) would fail with the audience¿ I don't think so. You can have a (more) realistic/plausible approach that isn't boring and which is very well received by the mass audience (i.e. Bourne Identity hand to hand combat, John Wick tactical shooting).
@@JamesCh. Not entirely true. Movies regularly flop and studios regularly make terrible decisions. There's a lot of hands involved and the production of films tends to get really messy, most of those huge studios are disorganized as or more than small companies, but in a different way. They're humans just like us.
@@JamesCh. Lies. Got and Troy had shit fights and all the viewers know it. Good choreography is just good, no "catering to a broad audience" changes the quality.
Bandits: You're outnumbered and surrounded!
Knight: Good. Then it is an even fight.
You're surrounded
Good I can attack in any direction
Them: We have you surrounded.
Him: Good, then you poor bastards have me right where I want you.
---Poor paraphrasing of a quote from Chesty Puller
Or to quote Hrun the Barbarian: "I outnumber you 1 to 30..."
Just to add another one:
Bandits: we've got you surrounded!
Knight: Looks like a target-rich environment.
Berbarian: we habe you surounded

This is amazing and a truly epic depiction of St. Michael’s protection
A Knight that knew his oath: Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright that God may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless. That is your oath. SMACK...and that is so you remember it. Awesome work.

Holywood: Wait, that's illegal.
I hate this
Why do they always have to show such unrealism?. Just to do fan service?
Hollywood this is beyond science
@@vintagejock3951 The unrealism of Hollywood is simply a means to make sure that the viewer is not stuck at watching a single man fight for 15 minutes against 20 men in a way that makes him look average in the eyes of an untrained fool who think he could last twice as long or make it twice as short.
Another reason is that it's much more safer easier for the actors (doubles most of the time) to have be get "wounded" through their limbs and torso than their face. The risks of simulating striking a face with a weapon to result in an actual wound is real and high. That's without considering the make-up issues which are harder to produce, can easily be damage (has to be redone) and can easily be not realist enough. You can fake a wound on the body in a simple way, but faking a wound on a face is complex as the face might have to move (when the actor talk) and such.
@@vintagejock3951 Maybe because films are not realistic things except rare exceptions, there can always be exceptions.
someone tell the 40k universe that as well!
I especially appreciate how the bandits are both bashing and slashing at his armor but also trying to hit the weakspots, going for his kneecap, neck and face.
It perfectly shows that they are both ruthless ruffians but also knowledgeable of the foe they are facing.
I know they obviously aren't fighting in the most effective way to take him down, because they're supposed to be untrained brutes, but I don't know how people have said they don't fight him together.
At one point a guy is literally holding his arm up while another tries to stab him in the throat and a third guy stabs behind his knee, as just one example.
Very well done
Yeah, they're clearly doing the *opposite* of pretty much every Hollywood fight scene where the villains patiently wait their turn. At numerous points, he's relying on his armour to protect him from an attack while he's dealing with another attacker.
Maybe those people were expecting a more organized rush. Like a few bandits grapple knight (and die in process) while others finish him. Seems like their leader has failed to provide the motivation for such deeds. On the other hand, none of his gang was cowardly escaping, so he is an ok leader.
This is the medieval equivalent of wishing upon an Abrams tank.

Adorea Olomouc: * role-coordinated omni-directional assault ensues *
I want to fight this kind of battle just me against like 20 six year olds all at once.
@@BoopSnoot best i can do is 20 midgets, 200 bucks and you can fight them all at once, armor not included
It was def a well-coreographed fight there is no doubt.
Its still had some "plot armour" but it had some very realistic elements to it as well. In this period of time, I think the bandit (if they were experienced) would have known they had to get the knight to the ground.
A mass rush to grapple him would have achieved this to then slip a dagger into his vulnerable areas.
The short is a bit over-ambitious in the number of bandits b/c they could have easily achieved this tactic with the weight of numbers shown here.
If the short had say 5-6 bandits coming in 2 waves then 100% it was a brilliantly choreographed fight and would have been more realistic.
@@stav1369 I liked the realism in the battle, but obviously a situation like this would be less plausible in real life, the only way that it could work is if:
-Bandits lacks experience (definitely most of them will)
-Bandits lacks coordination to overhelm him with numbers (this looks clear the case, since theyre just bandits and were taken totally by surprise, if some of them explained a quick plan to his friends it might work, but since no one opened the mouth it was just everyone for himself)
-Bandist fearing the knight (definitely seeing a dude in plate armor so confident and moving with that grace would frigthen me a bit, and this would make the cowards in our team stay out of his range instead of "zerg rushing" him, making our numbers critically smaller for the task)
-Knight had a mastery of swordmanship (in this case it does)
So overall this is what i think it would be necessary to happen for a single knight to take down a dozen or so men like in this short, and this one looks possible, not very possible, but plausible.
It would be a longer fight tough, i dont think half of the bandits had received fatal wounds in the short, so they should had been able to rise up again.
Role-coordinated omni-directional assault is the only occasion when that twirly move is acceptable.
Just re-watched the video, and I realized one thing: that fully armoured man-at-arms is not young. And given he comes out on top, it reminds me of an old saying: "Beware of old men in a trade where men die young."

Editing : 10/10
Choreography : 10/10
Knight's Stamina : 100/10
Yup. Lmao.
its fantasy, the knight is st. michael or something, she summons him with the amulet
My favorite detail regarding his stamina is that he actually takes a knee and vomits from the strain he just put himself through, but that breather is just enough to keep going.
I mean try being in medieval times where that's everyday lol.
@@popularopinion1 not really armor is nowhere near that heavy he would be fine nowhere near tired you people really overexxagerate acting like he is an out of shape fatman, also he takes a knee and starts vomiting not because he is tirer but do to nausea and disorientation, if you notice he was hit several times on the helmet, put a bell on your head and repeatedly hit it, that's pretty much how it would feel and you would lose balance.
“Fantasy” action film has some most realistic armoured knight vs peasant combat
I guess the fantasy element here is the sheer number of brigants the knight took on solo. I mean, he is good, but fighting a dozen brigants at once is still a challenge. Not impossible, but pretty close. Especialy since a couple of them actually knew how to deal with armored opponents.
@@KingQwertzlbrmpf Good point, since it's very possible most brigands didn't know how to properly deal with heavily armored opponents very well
Well, I guess this is plausible, but still not something mamy would be capable of. Plus, there was that story about a knight killing and fending of 50 peasants before being overwhelmed
@@Aurilion44 Of course not many could do it, you'd have to immensely fit to keep up with multiple enemies and not tire out, a man could pull it off if he was rigorously(is that the right term?) Trained, worked on his strength and stamina, and had the equipment, then he has a chance at this
@@centurion8515 Well he does throw up from exhaustion so I would say they showed that it was tiering.

My favorite part is seeing the bandits actually aiming for the weak spots. You can tell some of the bandits had experience dealing with full plated people before. Stabbing the lesser-armoured parts. Then some just swings.
You sure it's "past experience" that makes them aim for the weak points? Cause it looked a LOT more like improvisation to me. They all started out attacking the plate armor, then realized that it doesn't do shit. And THAT is when they started to go for the weaknesses of the suit of armor.

So many good points.. Plate armour defeats plot armour...Boba Fett nodding quieting when seeing the Barbute...half sword...slow advance whilst glancing both sides...each crushing hammer fist with gauntlet or forearm looked like he was really trying to destroy them, initial skirmish it seemed he was going easy on them simply to save the maiden and then retire but once it got serious no quarter even considered...that spear tip to the helmet was lethal even in rehearsal I bet...the distorted roar as he gets to "UNSTOPPABLE" level at 10:11 gives me the goose bumps... each combatant knew this monster in plate armour was capable of going right through them so they attacked any gap/joint they could with each of their weapons and styles... the actress portrayed all that was needed, the return of the Talisman was gentle and respectful despite his size and brutality...and as St. Michael he fights evil as well as visit upon the hour of death...literally. Best point he stayed full ~Judge Dredd and did not remove the Barbute! Great job!
There are many great parts in this but my favorite strangely is the part where he "vomit"s. It gives a good indicator that while he is wiping the floor with these guys he's still being pushed to his limit. It shows, if I can be dramatic, the weakness of the flesh but the strength of the spirit. He is obviously exhausted but he's not done yet
Oh I thought that was blood from being smashed in the face lol
@@McNab1986 i assumed it was both ... He might have puked from the stress and tension aswell as from the many injuries must have suffered.

You can tell on their faces they know they are in trouble when they see the knight in full plate armor.

"When the LORD God delivers them into your hands, you must destroy them utterly. Make no treaty with them and show them no mercy" (Deuteronomy 7:2)
Funfact; a lot of Medieval Knights followed a code of Chivalry which included protecting the weak.
Also another fun fact....many knights were no better then the brigands.
Since I didn't see anyone else saying it:
The medal of her saint disappears just before the knight makes his entrance. When he's done, he gives her the medal back. This guy is literally the answer to her prayers, possibly the saint himself. He fights like a well-trained, well-conditioned human, but he has supernatural origins.
More likely an agent. St Michael wouldnt have shown any signs of injury or stress. Remember that the Angels are Spirits, and Messengers. So St Michael, at the behest of Our Lord, would have somehow told his servant, "go that way." IMO, anyway.
read the Dresden Files, this is basically how the Knights of the Cross work (only in modern times)- where they are needed, their boss makes sure they appear :D
This would explain his endurance
She prayed for St Micheal and got St George......

Remember that Knight's were trained since they were children to fight with edged weapons and in armour. An untrained man or poorly trained without proper armour would be at a sever disadvantage! Also since as a child the knight was in the service of a great lord he would be properly and well fed. The result he would be healthier, larger and much stronger.
Not just edged weapons, maces and hammers were commonly part of their equipment

Also the fact that knight is a nobleman makes commoners think he is hot stuff.
@@shadekeigarblacksky well if it was a daily routine I'm not sure about them doing this half a day. That leaves very few time to do all the things they had to do or learn.
Plus, I don't know about this statement applied to a child. I'm pretty sure this would lead to muscle exhaustion, and skeleton deformation
@@sarojolibois6088 There were contemporary accounts of them doing all sorts of shit that you would think would come out of a kung fu movie training montage. Carrying water, cutting wood, clearing stones, dancing in 40 lb hauberks, trick riding, you name it. They def had a training period where this showed up more as a squire, but absent war they knew very well the value of constant hard training. But no, not just waterboys all day long, to be sure.
Saying the prayer in Latin was a good touch. An excellent film.
This almost made me cry. Thrice. Never before have I felt like that in any film. Thank you so much for this amazing piece of work!
Reading out loud the St. Michael's prayer while watching the beginning got me goosebumps and I teared up. And I'm not even Christian.
