Knights of Valour: Full Contact Jousting

They're crazy, insane, or simply adrenaline junkies. Whatever you might call them, you can't deny the Knights of Valour are passionate.For the past two years at Canadian Western Agribition, the Knights of Valour - Extreme Jousting have performed a jousting tournament to the delight of the crowd. This isn't just a show, however, this is real jousting. Armored men galloping at each other on horseback with combined speeds of up to 50 miles an hour, smashing wooden lances into each others shoulders. (And I got excited when they let me try the armor on!)Check out my latest video on the Knights of Valour - it really is as crazy as it sounds!On the blog: http://www.saskatchewanderer.ca/?p=2893
