That knight is armored to the teeth. I can only imagine the amount of training these knights had to endure a battle.

It's the poor horse I feel sorry for, he's got to carry that heavy lump around and he's all armoured up as well.

Too funny. Laughing
I'll have to find out how that heavy lump and horse faired in getting around.

Maybe like a starched paper doll where nothing is supposed to bend. Very Happy

apparently it is about 2-300 lbs of weight total including the rider that the horse kitted out carries.

Much less than a modern man ( LOL) sitting on one of these guys would today.

So I think the horses were fine.
