North Bridge Reenactment Fight: Concord Mass

[Manwithamission1972]

Those are Dragoons - they were not at Lexington/Concord. Believe the 16th LD were in Boston, but not in this fight.

[Basicallybenign]

These are not Americans pretending to be red coats surely? I thought we were supposed to be the enemy. Fellow Americans must look on these ' loyal' re-enactors as renegades. They must have taken a great deal of time and trouble with their uniforms and firearms to look so authentic. They need rather more discipline in the ranks though. God save the king!

[jesseusgrantcanales]

We need more of the Revolution here in SoCal.

[jizzinmypants191919]

why are the reenactors always so fat lol

[Manwithamission1972]

@jizzinmypants191919 Life in the year 2010 tends to be easier on the waistline than life in 1775 - British troops in 1775 carried 100 lb. packs on a regular basis - probably in better shape than we are in this day and age. 

[Forlornhope61]

All the literature I've ever read suggest the Lights fired on their own (much like at Lexington) once the Militia advanced on the bridge and then routed as soon as the Militia returned fire. Year after Year its this same old nonsense. How can it be sooooo hard to get this right, especially since its fairly well documented! And WTF are Dragoons doing here!!!

[viper1187819]

@Forlornhope61 Blame the National Park Service. They heavily regulate every reenacment that happens in a national park, and they usually wind up hurting the experience. They pretty much screwed up battle road in the same way.

[VladiSSius]

lol 4:53 "He doesn't need a mike" :D lmao

good video and good reenactment!!

[planetrockford]

You had the best seat in the house.

[jesseusgrantcanales]

DAMN!!! well I sure as hell wouldn't expect .69-.72 caliber roundball muskets to sound anything less than piss your pants intimidating with deadly nastyness!

[OliieTheEpic]

the talking makes me happy :)

[carltonsoohoo]

Lou sounds great as the announcer!

[fishycomics]

@carltonsoohoo he has such a soothing voice.

[LeMightySabre]

Mk 19 would make short of work of everyone there, including the audience.

[broadband01]

biased,no way brit grenadiers would run of like that

[ReyColons619]

I hope there were reenactments here in greece too...I would go well when I would be a bit older this seems awesome

[belantino1979]

the uniforms r fantastic wish they still had 2 wear them , glad we have moved on from muskets it must of been a nightmare trying 2 reloed then in battle . i'm british but i don't mind watching the americans kick our ass

[robloxace]

XD 1:12 FAT GUY'S BUTT IS IN THE CAMERA

[fishycomics]

@robloxace I enjoyed being upfront, memories of a life time. Do thry haveany reinactments back home by you?

[robloxace]

@fishycomics I wish, SoCal wasn't there back then, maybe for the unexplored Spanish it was

but no :(

[Redcoat66]

God save the King!!!!!!!!

[oldskool1964]

The clarity is amazing. I just purchased the same camera and received it today. The 720p 60fps looks amazing on YouTube. I'm not impressed with the 1080p on here. Nice video. I had no problems uploading as is to YouTube without converting the file from .mov and it was fairly quick, too. I'm also considering buying Magix 12.

[fishycomics]

@oldskool1964 youtube is not hd1080p flash yet so why bother loading.

[M1dnightSou1]

John Parker is my ancestor! gotta love the Rev War history! :)

[fishycomics]

[chrispchicken000]

[jomo3mo]

[fishycomics]

there is no beep, this isedited BIG TIME with two gvs's one in hand one on tripod, i hear a crack possably the strap, or hand hitting zoom. the voice is amplified by a mic, and zoomed in at 5x opt., may sound a lil crackly, but all is perfect.

[ThunderPigBlog]

This is a great way to learn, about the Americian Reveloution.

The sound of the musket fire..was fearsome.

Good job

[fishycomics]

[GlockNinja]

Very nice video. Must have been a lot of fun filming it.  How much is the AipteK HD camera you used?

[fishycomics]

Thanks Glock.Ninja T

To be a Bystander, and Part of the Reenactment , over filming is a priceless moment, and to capture and share. There are no words.

the cost of the gear under 200.00 per cam.

[SkateDontDie]
