I really should go to bed but I can't stop thinking about how weird #medieval #jousting is.

Imagine if today, the richest & most #powerful would entertain us unwashed masses by potentially goring each other to #death (or getting crushed from a fall in heavy #armour)!

Should we bring it back? ⚔️

Jousting armor, Germany, 1498 AD

Looking at armor behind glass is fine, but feeling the ground shake during a #jousting tournament in a small village is way better. These local #medieval events pull you right into the past with roasting meats and heavy wool cloaks. I mapped out a few lesser-known #historical gatherings across the continent.

Stepping into #PippingfordPark during the #MedievalFestival feels like the modern world just stopped existing. I spent the day wandering between #falconry displays and the #archery range, surrounded by people who take their #history seriously. The #jousting is intense, but the real charm is the #medieval tavern where stories flow as fast as the ale. A perfect way to spend a bank holiday weekend in #EastSussex.

Gotta love the times we live in. I just saw a sign advertising a Joust next to a sign advertising a 12 hour lawnmower race.

the #jousting life chose me 🥲

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
