@EgholmViking I've jousted against Andy at the Royal Armouries. Did it from 2003 to 2010. The lances there are all 11feet long. 5 meters is 15feet, which is way too long to joust with. 12 feet is about the max length anybody can reasonably joust with. I've jousted internationally in 8 countries, so I sorta know what I'm talking about. Check out my channel and view the videos.
This was an excellent informative video, very well done.MR Deane.
I have always (as others probably have told you about themselves)wished to experience a day wearing such a harness as you are wearing.Brilliant vid and I hope to see and hear more from the Royal armouries this way.
