Crikey imagine having to do all that with pikemen advancing on you. Or cavalry round the flanks. Poor buggers.
Great video though, and what a satisfying noise the musket makes.

The soldiers took the match out and put it at a safe place: it could be their hat or a metal cylinder hanging from their belt.The match burned too quick anyway to stay in the cock.
From own experience with matchlocks I can say that the forkrest -which most musketeers had- was not necessary because of the weight of a musket, but because you needed one hand to squeeze the match into the cock or serpentine and the other to tighten the srew which holds it. Which hand is there to balance the gun?

No, the English Civil War between the King ( fighting for absolute power) and the Parliamentarian Forces who prevented England from following the French or Spanish example.
It started in 1642 when King Charles I. attempted to arrest the opposing Members of Parliament and found an end with his head chopped of in January 1649. Sadly enough it started a bitter period for Scotland and Ireland which got suppressed by the ultra-puritan forces in England for ages to come.

i assume he'd take it out incase of igniting the powder and having it blow up in his face.

*facepalm* no during the civil war in america around 1861 to 1865 they used a caplock design which used percussion caps this beast however was used during the 17th century and was almost like the swedish Snapphane (snaphance) instead they used flints and not cord
