Jousting. This is one of my favorite pictures. The sheer concentration of the jouster, the combined concentration and purpose of lance, horse and person. Truly amazing #jousting #horse #photography #rider #art #photo #concentration

It's in the name, of course. United Kingdom.

But it's really rubbing my nose in it for the traffic warnings to tell me to avoid trying to drive through one particular town because the castle is holding a jousting tournament. (-:

"Get on your horse and hit the other guy with the stick. It's not that hard. Just try not to fall off." Waltheof the Squire dispenses some… useful advice(?) before the Mystery Knight's first jousting match against Sir Emmett in the Grand Tourney.

Hey there Fediverse!

I know this is an ABSOLUTELY long shot, but does anyone on here have some rights cleared footage of some jousting taking place? I need one short, high-quality clip for a video I'm working on for @show.

I can't pay, I'm afraid, but happy to link back to you on screen with a video: <name> or video: <URL> lower third.

In medieval Europe, a code of ethics known as chivalry developed which included rules and expectations that the nobility would, at all times, behave in a certain manner. https://www.worldhistory.org/Medieval_Chivalry/ #History #CourtlyLove #EdwardIIIofEngland #Jousting
