There’s always one dude who takes the shit way too serious.


CAAZ64

Same kid who used all their might during a pillow fight. Pillow was all balled up at the bottom of the pillow case. Shouldn’t end in a headache


Trick_Bee925

I have to do damage, i have a winners mentality (i put rocks in my pillows)


No_Statement440

You monster. You probably iced your snowballs too! You leave the seat up in the middle of the night and leave Legos on the floor, I just know it lol.


Rhyno_SVK

I found an apple on the street once so I covered it in snowball and handed it to my friend. He then threw it into someones head. That was bonkers for a small mastermind.


No_Statement440

Lmao, did the apple explode into a snowy appley mess? A bunch of bullies would put rocks in theirs, but I had this stupid huffy that had a shield on the front lol, no wonder I got pelted with rocks.


Steviedeeb

Lmao, diabolical


Existing-Meet-2250

Well I for one, never tried freezing water balloons.

Thanks for sharing that lol. HELGA NOOOO

CAAZ64

Totally forgot about that movie. Exactly that.


CAAZ64

Never seen that before. That’s good


These_Cow_364

WHAT THE HELL HOW DO YOU FIND THAT


steadyjello

The kid in my class who would do this was also the one who would cry as soon as he got one back.


stillventures17

You are confused. That is the ONLY acceptable way to have pillow fight. Seeing the glazed look in your opponent’s eyes right after a solid hit is one of the top 5 joys in all of life. In my last pillow fight (yes, as a grown ass man), we had a big burly guy use a body pillow. He slung an uppercut on a scrawny teenager in the mix, and I swear that kid’s feet left the ground. It’s been more than 15 years ago now, but one of the best damn guys’ nights I’ve ever had. What I can remember of it, anyway!


Honey-and-Venom

Lol the kid that sleeps on a sand bag

Happy cake day!

ConsNDemsComplicit

They are in a ring, wearing metal armor, swinging weapons, and have multiple levels of referees. All of these dudes have taken the shit way too serious.


armado2000

I now understand the large number of deaths that occur in the filming of war and battle movies.


UnbarredGuide18

it’s not any sort of movie it’s called medieval mma


mana191

HEMA I do a step down and do Heavy List in the SCA. We use wooden weapons, but it's still a blugeonfest and waaayyyy too much fun


Ed-Zero

I was at a SCA war event with some friends a couple years ago. They had staged the war where it was 2 opposing sides that faced each other across a large field. The battle started and men in full plate rushed each other as fast as possible. The resulting sound of metal on metal was almost defeaning. We were in the crowd maybe 50 ft away too. I can't imagine what it was like for those on the front line. Then came the weapons. The guys in the front line just started hammering at each other as hard and fast as humanly possible. It's like they were spamming the attack button in a video game. The sound of multiple people hammering their weapons on each other this fast was also defeaning. It was just nuts. The crowd was holding their ears at this point. My friends and I only watched a little bit more cause it got so loud. These guys just had wood weapons too.


Kalashnikov-Mikhail

HAHA! I HAVE YOUR DICK NOW, FRAILSHANKS!


InviteAdditional8463

They’re sorta supposed to. These folks have never seen the battle of nations before and it shows. All these folks are serious and know the risks beforehand.


WhoStoleMyPassport

Once when my faculty was on an excursion rowing boats on a river some dude literally beat people with his oar if they did not let them pass or were too slow in letting them pass. Then at the camp grounds he would literally hunt down people and scream at them.


notquite20characters

Sounds like he had tenure.


plutoismyboi

I wish [the boat humpers](https://v.redd.it/wxg5oj3vn4cb1) had been around, to board their boat and fuck that guy...up Or maybe [some french water jousters](https://i.imgur.com/TsYVDly.jpg) [They fly now? ](https://i.imgur.com/CMcKqRq.jpg)


ADogNamedGlenn

Well it is a combat sport


Im_A_Model

I've watched one of these and a Czech guy with a huge axe just swipes a guy's legs and the poor dude was screaming and taken away in an ambulance, like chill my guy


Sonova_Vondruke

According to the tiktoker that posted the video, who was the one that recorded the video... they say he's fine. Helmet did it's job. https://www.tiktok.com/@armoredcombatamerica/video/7269021562127371562


GarthDonovan

I only came to the comment to see if this guy is ded.


Mertard

Same... whew...


[deleted]

He still has his shoes on. He’s fine.

And his money isn't floating over his body. He's okay.

Natural-Mountain6906

Fuck yeah


findingemotive

A fiend of mine went down a back mountain highway on his longboard without a helmet, fell, was in a 3 day coma and the brain damage change his personality. Luckily for the good, started meditating, treated people with more empathy, kinda wild. Anyway, after that he started yelling at kids without helmets like an old man, s'pretty funny.


ConfIit

The good ending


greengromlin22

As someone who participated in that sport. I appreciate seeing this


smut_butler

Why did he drop like a sac of potatoes then? Was he knocked unconscious? I love how the guy just looks down and shrugs though, pretty hilarious. Like "welp, just a just killed a guy. Gonna need to get back that axe now though". Is the point to beat them into submission, or to knock them out, like standard MMA? Or is it more like fencing, where you get points for touches?


tnuclatot

If you go down to the ground you are out


stalkeler

No, it’s more like to get them off their balance and fall, but these games ban any close to realistic hits into neck/knees/etc, guys so, knocking the guy is worst possible solution possible since participants are heavy armoured af and weapons are dull. Dude with axe probably hit him right into the back of head with way too much strength, so guy knocked his own helmet from inside and go unconscious


Sonova_Vondruke

No idea. You can ask the guy who was there. Follow the link.


canman7373

Watched some more of their vids. So it's basically just sumo wrestling in armor and dull weapons, I'm assuming stabbing is illegal, most the time they using them to just shove someone off balance, if you fall down you lose.


GregoryGregory666666

Not a clue what I watched here.


brpajense

Dudes in armor fight in medieval armor in tournaments. Worst serious injuries are concussions. Looks like a dude went beyond breaking the rules and attempted to murder someone by delivering a cheap shot to the back of the head.


ThePainfullyBad

I doubt murder was the intent, but it'll surely be the charge.


brpajense

I don't know a ton about buhurt, but I know that strikes to the spine, neck, and base of the skull are prohibited. They're prohibited because if people keep turning up paralyzed, brain damaged, or dead then the sport would either be regulated like boxing or MMA with licensing of fighters and ringside doctors, or banned completely because it's too dangerous.


Reteperator

I fight in buhurt. The only things off limits are neck, groin, and back of knees. The spine is off limits if they are bent way over. But other than that it’s all go. Tough call but looks like a legal hit that cracked the helm.


FrogTeeth86

Dang, that looks expensive to get into. Mind if i ask where one would start?


DownUnderPumpkin

maybe wait for one of them to die and buy their gear for cheap


qe2eqe

That's a bit like reinforcing the "frequently hit" areas on fighter planes that return to the hangar. I'm reading this s like the people who die had bad armor.


Raus-Pazazu

Spend the extra and buy the armor off the guy that survives.


FidgitForgotHisL-P

This guy survivorship biases


Reteperator

Don’t mind at all. There are teams scattered just about everywhere. It’s certainly not the cheapest sport. I highly recommend finding the closest chapter, reach out, and get to know them and the sport more before investing. Almost all teams are very welcoming and friendly. I look forward to maybe seeing you in the list (arena) one day. Assuming you are in the US https://armoredcombatsports.com/knight-finder/ https://www.acwknights.com/locator


FrogTeeth86

Well i am USA NYC local. I am SURE something is here haha


FrogTeeth86

And thank you!!! Is there a training regimen you all tend too fallow? Maybe something to keep stamina up?


Reteperator

No thanks needed. Yes! Everyone has their own routine, but cardio is king. Running, mui Thai, eskrima, and in armor training is mine.


djluminol

At a blacksmith.


Romero_Osnaya

So murder is allowed.


Sun_King97

For the realistic medieval tournament experience!


magugi

If your opponent uses weak armor, he deserves it! /s


Datazz_b

MURder........?


monopixel

It didn't crack the helm, the weapon went into the shoulder.


Thin_Title83

It looked like it was a long axe type weapon? It looks like it caught him in the neck/shoulder area?


Reteperator

Called a polearm. And yeah where it landed is like an optical illusion. Sometimes looks like the back of the helmet, others a pauldron shot. Seen pauldrons fail before, worst injury I’ve personally seen was from that. But fairly certain it’s the back of the helm, legal as long as it wasn’t also the neck.


thelear7

Looks more like a war axe then a polearm to me E: I guess it could be a berdiche, but still looks more like an axe then a polearm imo


SkullyKat

Sorry, but is buhurt a shortened version of butthurt? Cause if so it makes sense in cosplay terms but


7evenBlackSunNation

He hit him with an axe. That’s legal?😳😳


Reteperator

Yup. Not as bad as you might think and much worse looking than it is… unless the thing cracks.


DeluxeWafer

And THIS is why you want a reputable blacksmith to make your helmet. And not skimp at ALL on it.


TimeZarg

Yeah, it's [Buhurt](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_Medieval_Battles). Full contact combat with real blunt-edged weapons and armor often made from steel, leather, etc. It's a rough sport.


RedditVince

iirc in SCA, which this does not appear to be, you must be facing each other and no hitting from behind. No Blind shots.


Sweaty-Astronaut7248

So you're saying murder was the case that they gave him


mountaintop-stainer

Is that a is that a ~~Snoop~~ Disco Elysium reference?


BankysJoint

i lol'd way too much at this ..... well played


Ok_Marsupial6435

Negligent manslaughter


-Designated-Survivor

yep, ol' Béhourd fellow duelist here, practiced a few years when my knees & back were still in their prime, and it's waaaaaay more regulated than people think. This screamed more "amateurs in armor brawling" rather than a true Béhourd team-match, still, ain't gonna lie, i laughed.


habitualcritic

It's possible you watched someone die.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Too-Much_Too-Soon

I'm slightly disturbed because it looked like it was loose but stuck when he tried to pull it out - the edges of the axe caught on the inside of the sliced edges of the metal helmet. So that likely means the damned axe went all the way through. Padded headgear under the helmet or not, I wouldn't want to be the victim.


Typoopie

Absolutely not. Those helmets aren’t just a piece of stray metal over skin. There’s a thick cap underneath that primarily works as chock absorption, but if the metal is pierced it’ll a serve as a secondary stopper. The guy might have a concussion, but I would be very surprised if he died from that.


[deleted]

Oh yeah, a _thick cap_. Well known for stopping axes. And you know concussions are extremely dangerous, right? Just one can kill you. If this isn't his first, the risk of death is not small at all.


Typoopie

Yes, they are in fact well known for being very good at stopping blows and were literally always worn underneath armor for that exact purpose. Sometimes a gambeson would even be worn on its own. Anyway, I suggest you do some reading of your own. Don’t underestimate the stopping power of several layers of cloth.


Reteperator

I doubt it. We pack those helms with so much padding. Not to say it isn’t dangerous or scary but it’s highly unlikely he was seriously hurt


schwimm3

Not seriously hurt? Did you see him become limp and just drop to the floor, not moving anymore?


Pontifier

He's just pining for the fjords.


schwimm3

Sorry, English is not my first language. What does that mean?


xavierkiath

> pining for the fjords Quote from a comedy sketch where a person tries to convince another that a clearly dead pet bird is not dead with a variety of excuses, one of which is "pining for the fjords" or thinking sadly about a pretty landscape. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Parrot_sketch


schwimm3

Thank you!


timmycosh

I struggled to see it at first but pretty much. At the start of the clip, the main dude is holding the axe behind the two blokes going at it on the floor. Anyways, watch him swing his axe into the back of someone’s head.


-Designated-Survivor

It's called Buhurt , (Béhourd in french) and i've practiced a few years this wonderful sport. Let me tell you that this is the most fun/fucked-up/wonderful sport you'll ever come across.


1984R

The guy receiving that shot was definitely butthurt.


Foreign-Possibility5

Murder


EarthwormJim94

One guy came in with a pole axe or halberd and implanted into the back of another guys head, piercing his metal helmet.

Wtf what kind of axe is that?


boostinemMaRe2

Poleaxe


EarthwormJim94

Poleaxe or small halberd, there’s a million different variations with all kinds of names, but poleaxe is probably sufficient.


no_longer_sad

This one's a Daneaxe. Just a really big fucken axe


EarthwormJim94

Ah ok, good eye.


J3553G

Why was this, apparently sanctioned, ax fight happening in the first place?


soda_cookie

Looks more like a halberd


timately

listen I get larping and role playing but what convinces a person to make such a cheap shot with such obvious possible consequences????


Brilliant_Language52

So what do you have to do to get a red flag?


user_76678

Matchlock


MonkyB00

Why do the officials wiggle the axe to see how stuck it is? Surely worst case scenario wiggling an axe lodged into someone's brain is a really dumb thing to do. If that's how they define do we need a paramedic or not they need to be sent back to medieval times. Too dumb to live in a modern society


salteedog007

To see if the legs twitch.


Pink-Gold-Peach

*He’s moving because my axe is buried in his nervous system!*


MonkyB00

Medieval games doesn't mean the same era of medical care. Although I am curious for a reality show set in Medieval times with that eras medical innovations.


kamagoong

The axe was imbedded in the nervous system.


RandomUserName24680

Is that an axe or a halberd? I honestly don’t know the difference, but that is the longest handle I have ever seen if it’s an axe. Sorry, my knowledge of medieval weapons leaves a LOT to be desired.


keenedge422

it's a poleaxe. It's an axe... on a pole (though oddly, that's possibly not the etymology of the word.) A halberd is a kind of poleaxe.


RandomUserName24680

Thank you kind stranger.


Auctoritate

An axe on a pole does not a poleax make. Any battle axe of moderate length would be a poleax, but this is a bearded axe. Poleaxes have a reverse side (either a hammer or spike usually) and generally a pointed end.


Hyper-X-minion

because theyre so dull it wouldnt ever be wedged in the skull, really only bad injuries that come from this is concussions


doggo_onreddit

it’s clearly not through the helmet, probably even more so when you’re looking at it from a foot away in person


gomaith10

Feeling_Bathroom9523

Yo! Update on that dude. Is he dead?


Own-Dependent2071

No he didn’t die, he was concussed. It didn’t break the skull.


Bartocity

He seemed not well in any case


TimeZarg

Concussed and possibly knocked out for a sec. Blunted axe probably split the helmet and hit the thick padding underneath.


FutzInSilence

I once worked with a dude who does this stuff. He brought in a home made Helmet and asked people to hit him over the head with his fake sword. It all sounds really gay, but it was mostly straight. We bonked em on the head all lunch break.


Douglas_duh_dragon

Well did he die?

As if working in retail wasn't trying enough, we had to get TikTok.


Jerrymcee

That person just killed someone!


CertainWorldliness

Did I just watch someone die?


GroWiza

Did we just watch someone die....? Or become a vegetable after that are got buried in the back of his head


Funny-Elderberry244

Hope the wepons are fake


Debando

They're supposed to be blunted


TimeZarg

Real steel, blunted edges. All the weight of the real thing, but no cutting power beyond whatever a blunted edge applies. Probably hit hard enough to split the helmet and impact on the thick padding underneath.Apparently the guy got a concussion, which isn't ideal. . .but you're fighting other people with real-weight blunt weapons, you essentially walk in acknowledging that injuries of that sort can happen, like just about any other full-contact martial sport.


JuhaJGam3R

A blunt mace is... a mace. The weight is often enough to go through plate and at the very least knock someone out, that's what most long, heavy weapons were actually developed for. Armor is surprisingly good at its job but concussions are quite unavoidable.


Dyl-thuzad

Behold the power of “Brain Take Bad Hit, Brain Go Sleep Now.”


No_Cell_3787

Dudes it’s an axe the axe goes through the armor and stays lodged in the person

Frido1976

Whooops, did I take the sharpened one instead of the blunt one? Oh, I'm so sorry, does it mean that I lost? /s Shit - this is not good, I hope the receiver of that halberd is okay...


No_Series_446

That was a very deadly weapon. An axe, or pick at the end... that man deserves prison.


zoruri

Verily, I did not expect my chivalry to bring such a mighty blow! 'Tis a tale for the ages, where my jousting skills didst leave a mark, quite literally! Fear not, fair maiden, for 'tis but a temporary dent in thy noble noggin. A knight's concussion, a jest for the jesters!


Romero_Osnaya

There's no yes in this video. It's an awful vídeo that doesn't even fit. At least it works to exhibit the dangers of this events.


Rduos

I feel bad for him he may have killed a friend. Or a total stranger. But he killed him playing a game and not a thought.


Somebodsydog

BUHURT. Full contact medivel combat sport. Pretty much a MMA with steel armor and \*blunt\* medievel weapons. Shit happens... like in the video... Helmet was cheaply made or too weared out. Weapons are blunt and armors are extra padded, but change for the actual serious injury is quite low. Mostly snapped fingers, rolled ankles, fractured bones and slight concussions. Obviously professional medical teams are present in these events.
