Always fun with experimental recreations of history.
Tod from Tod's Workshop had a crowdfunding-campaign to get more money to do experimental recreations of history. And to see how dangerous the archers were at the battle of Agincourt in 1415. He is joined by an archer, a fletcher, an armoursmith and a historian. All tests were made with a 160 lbs-bow, and filmed in slow motion. 5 links:
01: A discussion about the strength of the bows.
02: Test of varying levels of hardening on the arrow tips.
03: Test of differernt qualities of mail - chainmail
04: Test of different qualities of plate
05: Test against a whole suit of amour.
