Feudal system was a result of William the Conquerer invading England. All the Anglo Saxons became serfs. Maybe one day we’ll get our country back (/sarcasm)

I read about Assegai spears and thought it would be cool to order one from Amazon. But, then I thought that something like this might happen and didn’t act on the impulse.

Peter went to spear a paper plate while on horseback when something went wrong and his lance impaled him under his sternum, WLWT confirms.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sad story and all but how do you get killed by a paper plate?

Very sad, but accidents happen with sharp implements. My sympathy to his family and friends.

I was told “don’t run with scissors.” I guess “don’t run with a lance” is also not bad advice.

“Barclay was trying to spear a paper plate on the ground.
Barclay’s brother posted on Facebook that the metal tip of his brother’s lance hit the ground, flipped and then impaled him under his sternum.”

“Everybody that knew him is just dead stunned,” President of the Society of Creative Anachronism John Fulton told WLWT. “His ability, his skill and his attention to detail and safety is just totaled.”

Fulton apparently did not prepare his remarks ahead of time.

I’ve portrayed a Mexican Lancer in a movie and the 9 foot lance can be dangerous if one loses it on horseback at a canter. In a Civil War sequence I saw a fellow trooper lose his sword and as it bounced I winced seeing it almost impale the horse. Weapons and horses at speed have some dangerous consequences if something goes array.
