If movies have not lied to me (😜), knights’ tournaments are involve hacking, slashing, and jousting each other. How did they not kill each other using such weapons or speed on horses? And if it was actually dangerous, why did they participate?
In: 155
Pre-broken and blunted lances designed to shatter on impact for jousting.
Blunted weapons and full plate armour for melees.
Death’s weren’t massively uncommon but prizes were good so people chanced it.
