"Will full-contact professional jousting be the next extreme sport?"
Apparently this new reality show on National Geographic attempts to answer this question… link Really!? |

Looking forward to it! Was going to post a note about this myself. |

Watched it last night and was entertained. Love seeing those lances being splintered, and guys getting knocked off their steeds. Not sure about the guy's claim of being the "world champion" though, since if I recall correctly there were/are some Europeans playing full contact jousting too. If you are interested in medieval warfare, and/or jousting tournaments, it's worth checking out. Wish I'd been able to see it live, in person. |

I saw something like this 30 years ago in San Francisco where it was a bunch of English stunt men. It was pretty intense, one guy broke an arm. Thanks for the heads up! |
