Normally I would say that I find it hard to believe that people could be this stupid but every time I do, they up their game to prove me wrong.

Oh look! My two grandsons grew up!
Ya need a new definition of “grew up” there, DMM.
Really? They’re not using the helmets right now.

Can I get an amen? And some Tylenol.
Was thinking the same right off before I scrolled down
Thank God, my two mor…I mean sons, didn’t have you-tube when they were younger.
How Democrats are made.
you know my dad always used to warn be about” the stupid” as he called it.
9 times out of 10, people will always do the dumbest ,most stupid thing you can think of. as he was fond of saying,” watch out for the stupid “
It looks really stupid. But driving drunk is worse and much more prevalent. Who hasn’t driven with a buzz at least once?
Igor, you’re excluded from this poll by default. We already know that you’re just……. well perfect.
I vote YAY!
Looks like they are running out of ammunition in Ukraine and having to retrain with more available weapons. Never give up and never say Die (except in Wales).
Huh, looks like an olde english version of the russkie slap contest.
Even has the Monty Phython sound!
I was going through the voir dire jury selection process once and the prosection was explaining to us that in our state it’s a felony for a convicted felon to have body armor or a bulletproof vest. I have to admit I didn’t actually know that but one of the other prospective jurors asked him “What if he’s on his way to a renaissance festival in costume”? I think that juror was one of these guys.
Minor update of the Monty Python fish slap routine, they just need to get a bit more energetic about it is all. Then again, maybe there are no ambulances nearby.
The helm only reduces the chance of a laceration or open wound. The force of the blow is still transmitted to the brain. One of the most common weapons of the time was a hammer which had similar influence as the pan.
With proper padding, even the padding from the time period, it’s not such a big deal. Horse tail hair, filling tubes of linen or cotton, even wool rolls covered in linen, can suck up a tremendous amount of force.
Yes, the head can’t take a lot of repeat smashing without decent padding (Henry VIII’s later weirdness and insanity may have been caused by cumulative brain trauma from jousting and tourney fighting) but it doesn’t take much padding to smooth the bumps out.
They weren’t stupid back then.
And the frying pan thingy? That imparts a lot less force than even the edge of a sword.
It’s a Ren-faire. Eh.
Now, sneak some modern padding in under the helm, like a boxing padding or some reactive foam or even closed-cell pipe insulation (or neoprene pipe insulation) and that will suck a huge amount of excess force. You’ll feel the hit but most likely won’t suffer much from it at all.
Wrong,
These guys have padding. The padding only works so far. Look at a modern football helmet. It is the pinnacle of protection, but injuries are common. There is a phenomenon called counter coup injury that padding can not help and it can be as dangerous as a direct injury.
The Stooges have always been popular, even in centuries past.
Wifey just watched this.
She said proper men never really grow up and thats why proper women love them, she also said that’s why so many women are miserable, because they grew up and never have any fun.
After watching some of the infantile behavior of Woke women I’d say that SOME women grew up, while others never even took the first step. Guys who marry the adult women are the fortunate ones.
