en ningun caso se efectuan simulaciones en condiciones de combate. Los modelos estaticos y los tiradores no reproducen en absoluto las condiciones de combate descritas. Ni siquiera los mas antiguos tiradores en japon lo hacen. Asi, llegar a conclusiones como las de los videos es falso y solo sirve para mayor gloria de los que intervienen. Poneos a simular situaciones de combate a ver como apuntais y resolveis la situacion......

GUN

great video

Farther*

Sulphur ,arsenic, yeah ,sulphur dioxide gas combined with the garlic smell of burning arsenic is nothing nice .

👏 BRAVO Amazing

with a better script this video could have been 15 mins long

Is it even reasonable to believe the Native Americans used fire arrows, as is depicted in the western movies? Or was that more Hollywood fiction?

I liked the show, but seriously you doubted the advantage of the elevated position!?

thank you mr tod do you also do costumes of that time ❤

Seeing how they got really creative on making these is there a separate angle where they got creative in how to counter them? using chemicals to maybe neutralise them or devices they invented would be interesting to learn about.

you should have just used ChatGPT to tell you what the distance was going to be from 5 stories up.

Thatched roofs

Could a length of rope, about one palm long and maybe partially frayed, work as fletching and additional leverage?

Did you know, If the knights wanted to destroy (e.g.) a gate, they would bring some pigs and burn them, because the pigfat burns so hot it can destroy the gate and even crack stones, because the water inside the stones will evaporate from the pig-fire.. I think they were not stupid..

movies make it seem like fire arrows are lighters on a stick. but you showed that they were really blowtorches on a stick. frightening weapon.

Very intriguing, I enjoyed this!

Love your videos

You missed with dirt and the water…..at least dunking the water worked. 3 times a charm

Hollywood sucks

I wonder how often panic and not being ready for it lead to things like having to abandon a shield immediately before being assaulted with another assault

This brings me back to physics class. There's a billion problems about projectile motion that discuss how x and y velocity are independent, so surely starting higher would result in a longer shot. Some even factor in drag from the air. I almost wish you had done the math first and then seen how close you were to your calculated number!

The arrowheads barely look sharp, almost rounded, why? Feels like a smaller head and sharper would have higher chance of penetration, no? 😮

@Tod's Workshop Any interest in the current conflict in Crimea? There are amazing things happening in the field of innovations of weapons tec. This is a link to an amazing video about local drone production with wild hornet brand by a fundraising group i associate with 69th sniffing brigade ua-cam.com/video/ZFtY0ZWHlec/v-deo.html. A youtuber with a channel 90% the size of yours (Jake Broe) just did a 1 week fundraiser that raised 1million 140k that will be used to get 30 vehicles and a crapload of drones(nearly 1000) to Ukrainian military units that have requested vehicles for things like medical evacuation.

Like lawn darts.

Some people just don't seem to realize that some item can be "perfect" and still be a piece of rubbish. Todays items are built to look good but ultimately break down in anywhere from 1 to 20 years because if they didn't no one would need to buy another one. Then a capitalist society would eventually fail.

More on the dirk please. What is the proper grip and use? I'm somewhat familiar with Fiore dagger master but I do not believe I've come across any dirk material. I assume this would be a peasant class weapon?

200 enemies, 1000 arrows shot, 1 death. Sheesh, and you call them "archers?"

What is your view on the Greek Fire Constantinople used in naval battles against Arabs ?

You can hold crossbow with its limbs vertically, put it on your shoulder (like an RPG), hold bolt with your thumb or even flat of your hand, and shoot that way at any angle up to vertically down

I'd think the last thing a captain in the Navy would want is to sink or burn a ship they could be towing to a friendly port eating a plum duff counting their prize $! interestingly these fire weapons largely disappeared by the late 17th century, probably for this very reason. that or muskets and guns where just so much more effective without sinking a prize.

Put modern limbs and arrows on medieval crossbow and see, hahaha 96lo lb of draw with modern limbs...

Me watching without my glasses and can't see anything: Wow he's really accurate

The problem is there are grown adults who believe that everything told about medieval times were true. All of this shit is fantasy and dumb humans mistaking it as truth..

Obviously it is not "too slow" since it propells lighter things just fine. You need to simply add more "bungees" lmao

I am super late to the party, but a note I can make about battlefield use is the ''Smoke generating areal denial''. Shoot a volley of 200 smoke arrows into the enemy;s line could create a lot of chaos and break formations. A scattered army is easy picking. Same way we use tear gas in modern day to subdue riots.

how about layer upon layers of silk?

Das haben die Bogenschützen früher auch gemacht , Gefangene ohne Lösegeldwert wurden an einen Baum gebunden und , dann hat man die Rüstung Systematisch auf Schwachstellen geprüft , vorzugsweise mit Inhalt denn , man wollte ja sehen was man erreichen kann . 😮

unreal demonstration, cheers to all involved

Maybe the effectiveness of the needle bodkin would be better if it was flatter with slightly sharpened sides. I think that the flat flesh bolt cuts a large enough hole in the fabric for the rest of the head to go through. The needle point only cuts a small hole and then has to force the fabric to stretch. Hence why it was so difficult to pull out - it was effectively stopped by the fabric not being able to stretch any more.

I am no scientist or mathematician but my common sense tells me that because he is so elevated up and how "light" the arrow is, the wind would carry it much further than loosing it on even ground. This was a very informative video non the less and I am glad you all put it to the test to let us know, thank you!

This gem needs more than a million views, the production quality is insane.

crossdres to operate crossbow

Save your culture Brits...Let them assimilate with your values and culture and not overshadow.

TY very much from France! (your ancien targets lol)

you can defend your post or you can put out the fires but you can't do both. the more dilemmas you can give your adversary the better . during sieges the woman often had the job of preventing those small fires before they got out of control .

@akiratorres8949

I wonder what would result from a crossbow using medieval material (wood, steel, rope...) but modern design.

This is my favorite sword you sell I want to buy it so bad, I need to ask how long until it can be made if I order it ? I’m as of right now waiting 2 years already for an Albion 12-18 months for a Steven lock wood and 2 years plus for a scabbard from dbk .
