Somehow? Oh yee of little Faith. God was clearly on his followers side. How can you watch this and deny that He was watching over them? So many times they were on the verge of dying/failing but the One true God saved them. Miracles on the battle field! Through Jesus Christ our savior, you my friend can also be saved. Yes, saved, from the war over your soul on the battlefield that is modern life and pleasures on earth. This is but temporary, the real pleasures are in heaven with our creator. Can’t wait to ask Him so many questions!

One can only imagine what would have happened had their morale not been restored with the spearhead of the lance. It really just goes to show how much power there is in maintaining morale, it’s an aspect of warfare almost entirely unmeasurable and yet plays such a crucial role in maintaining cohesion and obedience. Just hearing about these events from a KZread video makes one shiver, you really can’t imagine what it must have been like to be here at this point in history which ultimately would have unbelievably long-lasting effects on the outcome of western and Eastern Europe and the world as a whole. The strength to persevere through something like this is truly unimaginable. It’s beyond unimaginable, it’s something nearly of fiction. The fact that Hollywood hasn’t capitalized on this world event of the greatest magnitude is beyond me. Maybe there’s just a fear of controversy with it relating to Christian/Muslim tones. But still, a good writer with a good director would do it intelligently.

Sorry to burst your bubble but he that spearhead lance was quite obviously a fake one, notice how the Crusaders found nothing when they searched but as soon as the dude who claimed it was there searched for 2 seconds he found it instantly? the hint does not become bigger than that, he clearly just took a random spearhead lance from a dead body, hid it and then proceeded to act as if God revealed to him its location and it is quite obvious why would he start such a scheme, it is because he realized how dire the situation of the crusaders was and wanted to do something quickly to restore the morale of the Crusaders, it was a genius plan though so kudos Edit: oh wow just watched part 12 and it turns out I was correct in everything I said above

(eg the Templars, Hospitallers, Teutonics, Knights of Holy Sepulchre, knights of Malta) Particularly the Templars who I believe were some of the most feared and well-trained soldiers according to their enemy. Since all the above lived the monastic rule in war, this might have likely proved useful for virtues like discipline, courage, and conviction. Also El Cid would be epic

Book of Armaments, Chapter 2, Verses 9-21: "And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, 'O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy.' And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs, and sloths, and carp, and anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats, and large chulapas. And the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.'

Perfect series by a perfect youtube channel
Amazing story and video!
1st crusade :- Chad crusaders who win even at the slimmest chances . The rest of the crusades :- Don't even commit to the attack .

The Third and Fourth Crusades stand in slight contrast, though. While ultimately strategically unsuccessful in retaking Jerusalem, they did largely re-open large swaths of The Holy Land to Latin pilgrims and held mostly strategic victories from a military perspective, particularly on the part of Richard I.
"A comfortable pilgrimage to tour the land and see the religious sights." -- What Pope Urban II called it in the tourist brochure.
Another great video!
Fascinating Episode 👏🏻
Imagine finding a random piece of spear underground, it lifting the entire army to press on and win. Amazing lol
Imagine how cool it was besieging the city for months... Tents, wine, food, late night chats with the comrades and waiting for the big clash
excellent as always
Amazing series. Please more
You haven't mention that the Byzantine/Roman Emperor didn't came to the Latins' aid (for several reasons) after being trapped in Antioch

Actually he did come with an army but while he was 3 days march from Antioch he met fleeing deserters from Antioch that told him that the Crusaders were annihilated.Fearing being trapped in ennemy territory,returned to roman territory.

TURKISH Guy from Antochia here. My Grandfathers Village is in the near of a old Castle which was occupied by the Normans in the First Crusade. The interesting thing is, when I made a Y-DNA test my Y-Chromosome(Hablogroup) came back as I1-Z61 which is a North-European/Scandinavian Hablogroup. The Y-Dna of a Male shows his Paternal Lineage. So I am probably a descendent of one of those Norman Crusaders lol..

Obviously they counted on lack of coordination from the turks too. But i think cruzaders won mainly because of the armament. They had superior body protection and better metal alloy left by romans centuries early who proof his value on this battle

Armor and weapons and nice. But it is seen in you westerners today that you have rarely seen a Zealot. To be so filled with love for God that you want to die as soon as possible just to be with him. A zealot sees the Muslims and sees Satan himself and feels a physical need to kill them. This state of mind won these battles. They fasted for 3 days if you have ever fasted you would know how hard that is and not to mention going out to kill after it.

20:19 Can you imagine the scene unfolding here.. The seljuks thought they had Bohemond of Taranto, a crusader leader, surrounded. And were about to strike him down with swords and spears.. Until, no ordinary knights came to his rescue. Robert II, Duke of Normandy and Robert II, Count of Flanders came by his side and swept the nearby assaillants away ! Epic
Terrific video! ⚔
Excellent video 📹 Will power 🔋 💪 is power
The siege isn't that bad it won't hurt you. The siege : 16:48
And thus the first and only holy hand grenade were created.
Its my birthday and this is a really good way to start the day

Hopefully you will make a video recounting the dreadful treatment that Baibars gave the same city & its population 150 years later.

Kitbuga wasted golden 3 weeks by not directly coming to Antioch.
Rainy Sunday morning coffee and nothing to do. New K&G upload, AND a reason to refresh the first crusade playlist immediately after to place it in greater context? Don't mind if I do.
