Medieval fire arrows were real! So I followed the old books, made some and tested them in every way I could think of.
We have loads of old manuscripts, pictures, drawings, fire arrow heads and recipes of fire arrows but because some people haven't looked at the old information and can't make them work, lots of people think they were a myth. You see them everywhere in films and computer games so it is easy to dismiss them as a modern popular culture affectation - they were as real as you are.
So this film is an exhaustive description of what they were and how they made them work, woven through with a series of tests and demonstrations and showing the sources.
If you want to know about fire arrows this is the film for you.

They looked impressive in the opening scene in ‘Gladiator’.
