Pointing out bias in stories just tells people of the opposite persuation to not believe it. Also just who does the "factualty" checking part? And just what are their leanings? Many Left leaning sights couch themselves as unbias in their reporting however heavily one sided they are slanted. May I add that when a left issue is ever presented that isn't tied into an emotion rather than logic will be the day I ever take they left serious. But they are still scary af people with a little power and cannot be trusted with that power for the good of all the people. Not blaming you in this. But it is akin to presenting climate facts from NASA thinking it's the truth(cause it's Science!)and not knowing anything about their 20 years of changing the historical temperature record and slowly erasing the past as we've understood it for the last 150 years and invented their own...cause "SCIENCE"! You wanna get into history? Go back and listen to President Eisenhower's farewell address to the people in 1961. Pay particular attention to what he says AFTER he talks about the Military Industrial Complex. There's your sign

It is said that after Loudon Hill, Longshanks, outraged at the defeat, challenged Bruce to what is now recognized as the first recorded rap battle in history. While we only have fragmentary documentation of the ensuing clash, it is considered one of the finest examples of a lyrical engagement to exist. Bruce's brilliant use of rhyme scheme and strategic deployment of biting insults literally caused Longshanks to perish. Whether or not this occured is still debated by historians, so it makes sense that History Marche didn't include it. I would include the segment of Bruce's final verse that ended Edward's life, but not only would KZread block my comment, I would likely be arrested. Bruce's rhymes are so powerful that it takes years of training to read them without risk to life and limb.

@@Zogerpogger I'm familiar with some of those rather obscure passages. There's current thinking that the word interpreted that insinuates a rhyme battle is more of an anachronism. This would indicate that it was in fact a dance off in which the Bruce and Longshanks partook. This has given rise to many modern cultural phenomena. For example, the injuries Longshanks sustained during this dance off, partly due to poor footwork resulting in several falls, contributed to his death soon after. The style of dance off incorporated by the Bruce therefore became known as "breakdancing". As you have pointed out, there were numerous biting insults hurled by the Bruce during the event, which apparently threw Longshanks off his game. This is considered to be the first instance of "sledging". This tactic has lived on into the modern era to be seen in sports like cricket. Further, some of the comments from UFC fighter Connor McGregor during his pre-fight epigrammatic exchanges are almost certainly straight out of the accounts from this historic engagement. So I suppose, like in all things history, the events surrounding this incident are very nuanced. My thinking is that it was both a dance off and a rap battle, but there is quite a lot of contention about this amongst the scholars.

@@haroldgodwinson5043 I appreciate your position. I have great respect for the work done by the scholars of the dance-off school of thought. Their theses indeed influenced my understanding of this historical episode. I'm ultimately more of a rap-battle purist, but mostly with you on the idea that it was both a rap-battle and a dance-off. I only chose to share just the original rap-battle narrative due to the complexity of the dance-off theory. At the end of the day I think we can agree that it was bold of Bruce to challenge a man with such sizeable legs. As we know Longshanks got his name via his practice of challenging rivals to proto dance offs. I like to think that Bruce knew this though and wanted to prove himself by defeating Edward at his own game. Ultimately this was a very influential decision, with many later leaders emplying Bruce's methods. There are examples everywhere, with evidence existing that points to the use of Brucian dance/rap tactics by Oliver Cromwell, Napoleon Bonapart, and even Vladimir Lenin.

I'm surprised how accurate "The Outlaw King" was. Seems like it was based in history even more than Braveheart was

"We fight not for glory, nor for wealth, nor honour but only and alone for freedom which no good man surrenders but with his life." - Robert the Bruce, King of Scots Every time a spider fell, it rose to rise again. To cast the web that would decide the fate of it's foe. England simply couldn't fully crush the fighting spirit of the Scots

Edward longshanks was in his later years in this campaign. If he was younger he wil be able to defeat scttish warriors. But Scottish warriors faced edward and English with their courage and determination. Brilliant doc. Historymarche always give us beyond hope. Animatons are getting better and better. One of my fav channels and my top 3 channels list in KZread. Highly recommended their docs. Huge fan of you from Sri Lanka ❤️.

Best narrator in this space. Thanks for all edutainment over the years.

I kept seeing this channel as an ad on other animated history KZread channels like "The Armchair Historian". And I'd say that ad wasn't lying, this channel can make pretty good animated history videos as well, keep up the good work lads 👍

An excellent account of the battle as well as the events leading to it.

Just watched Outlaw King recently. Enjoyable video, thanks!

Enjoyed this precursor and 'turning point' battle I had not known!

Great video as always!

Excellent historical subject & a wonderful introduction... (History Marche) always sharing fascinating historical subjects

amazing, the Loch in Irvine is where my primary school is located (the land was drained in the 1600s) and now I live in Glasgow 2 seconds away from the Battle of Langside!
