Biggest Battle of the First Crusade - Battle of Antioch 1098 DOCUMENTARY

Hahahah the advertisement wàs so good

Love The vid

Religion is a disease.

Is that CK2 music playing in the background?

The first crusade at times seems as although it is a cat with nine lives, given how many times they snatched victory from the jaws of defeat or triumph against massively superior odds. As least three times at Antioch, they should have been destroyed or overrun by their Muslim enemies.

How barbaric to dug up the bodies D:

Shout-out for the seamless product placements. Lol.

You have to be as thick as pig sh*t to believe you are doing the Lord's work when you massacre women and children, and people of your own faith!

Yes, some Muslim conquerors were cruel but many Christian conquerors were just utterly barbaric, monstrous. I don't understand how one can be Christian.

Bishop Adhemar of Lepuy led the Crusaders out of the city carrying the Holy Lance, now on a shaft. Many strange apparitions were seen on the battlefield, Christ and St. Thomas, a lone Crusader knight standing on a high hill, and signaling the Christian host to advance against the Muslims. ✝

Fatahmids being cool with crusaders was really a huge underestimation. The muslim world was really divided by then and perhaps curious of the events of these supposed mercenaries

Master class but desperate sally out. But it’s really an advantage if defenders are spread out and the attackers become the attacked because they do not know where the sally out will funnel

Let's goooooo

This entire series on the 1st Crusade is crazy, also just the crusaders and their never ending luck is crazy.

Boys fasted for 3 days, ate the body and blood of Christ and then charged like there is no tomorrow

exaggerated

the seljuk leaders never forced anyone to convert to Islam

7 christian king vs 1 muslim Commander

Well, very sad to say to the christians, all these victories against the turks, will not last. Anatolia was already turk that time, it was reconquared just after a dacade from the byzantines. And that blow to aginst turks was given back to the latins by the ottomans after few centuries, they even conquared rome in sultan mehmets time. And this is the story of the muslim army, the so called "army of Islam" in crusader fantasy chronicles. Not Islam Itself. Fighting Islam itself is a different story. In crusader fantasy chronicles, the preists try to say they defeated Islam in those times. Lol. Even if You and your decendent of all europians try for thousand years, Islam will be victorious. I suggest, soon europians should colonize mars( if they can fight china in that matter of course).

If the conquer England, Sicily/southern Italy and now the countless battles won in the crusades doesnt show that the Normans were the most deadly fighters of the time i dont know what else would. These guys must have been scary to see. Is there any info on how the Norman knights trained. I know there have been videos before how the Romans and legionaries trained for their discipline and combat readiness. I would love to see if there is any info on how the Normans created such deadly fighters to the man. That would be a fascinating video. along with the gear that they would be using that seems to give them a huge advantage in close combat against the Muslim soldiers they were fighting.

great work

Müslüman askerler kuru kalabalık. Hiç birinde savaş sanatı eğitimi yok.
Köylerden adam toplayıp savaşa götürüyorlar.
Halbuki şövalyelerin işi bu. Zaten bir çoğu savaşta başarılı olduğu için şövalye oluyor.

they slaughtered their fellow christians as well lmao

Imagine you are on the brink of starvation but have to go out and fight people to the death

Killing all the people in the city was a dumb move, always show respect to the people. The people in the long run will be your strength or your weakness

Outstanding cameo from Mad Hugh.

where is the history of the crusades 2?

Comet's Talk No Jutsu

why didn't the eastern roman empire come in support?

Crusaders were marauding barbarians, massacring innocent jews, commoner muslims, orthodox christians and battle captures alike. They deserve no praise whatsoever.

What did they gain from butchering the inhabitants? As they wanted the city for themselves you'd think more citizens being alive to be taxed would be a goal. The mainstream view is that the crusades was unjustified bloodthirst, but then I read up on what provoked them and it was more understandable, but then they do stuff like this. Maybe it's because the Franks were generally dicks wherever they went, backstabbing the Romans multiple times and even during the crusade for Nicopolis where Sigismund wanted to save the Christians and promised them mercy the French knights still massacred and looted, prioritizing their greed rather than the faith

I got goosebumps each time the crusaders get a morale boost in this battle lol so epic

Great, Thanks!

Movie battles are too unrealistic. Meanwhile the first crusade...

Bohemond is such a cool historical figure

St. Ignatius of Antioch would have been happy to see that Antioch was Christian again. Christianity was there hundreds of yesrs before Islam converted by blood or sword.

Masallah and yet we are the ones who are more violent, seeing how the muslims didnt even get mercy even for the women, damn no wonder christianity is indeed the biggest religion, not because it was spread by knowledge but because it was actually spread by the sword.

This video is awesome as well as the rest of the film on the First Crusade!
You inspired me to write a musical tracks about these events.

On Spotify, you can look for "Siege of Antioch" by laythedawn

Thanks again for inspiration!

But did they have the holy hand grenade

Speaking of good sleep, I might get some one day if your videos stop making their way into autoplay. I like what this channel does but it's a bit of a rude awakening when you started with Skyrim soundscapes and it jumps to this.
