Ahh... Three hours about the unimaginable horrors of brutal medieval warfare to blissfully drift asleep to.

It really is impressive how Robert the Bruce had almost complete control over the enemy's movements at Bannockburn. The English front line had no choice but to run headfirst into a big spiky wall, the troops in the back were unable to to much about it as there was almost no way to get any kind of feint or flanking maneuver going, and the only place the archers could go to be effective was in a spot where they were quickly swept off the battlefield. If there ever was a textbook example of how crucial the choice of terrain is to winning a battle, this would certainly be it.

I love how this is just a summary of atrocities accompanied by uplifiting music and a calm, light voice.

The DeBohun/Bruce faceoff could have changed history as we know it. Amazing stuff! Exactly why I love history, books, and documentaries such as this.

[JoeRowland]

I am 56% English and 43% Scottish with a splash of 1% Finnish for some reason.

I always wondered why I never got along with myself.

Great video, well put together, filled in a lot of gaps in my knowledge

My 3rd comment while watching this lol. I’m fascinated at the detail of this doc ngl, it shows the humanity of battle and how us humans haven’t changed much over the 700+ years since. I expect I would have died in this battle but would have given my all R.I.P to the men who fought for what they believed to be the right thing to do back then.

Wir anthem is a summary of this brilliant chronicle:
O Flower of Scotland,
When will we see
Your likes again,
That fought and died for,
Your wee bit Hill and Glen,
And stood against them,
Proud Edward's Army,
And sent them homeward,
Tae think again.
The Hills are bare now,
And Autumn leaves
lie thick and still,
O'er land that is lost now,
Which those so dearly held,
That stood against them,
Proud Edward's Army,
And sent them homeward,
Tae think again.
Those days are past now,
And in the past
they must remain,
But we can still rise now,
And be a nation again,
That stood against them,
Proud Edward's Army,
And sent them homeward,
Tae think again.
0 Flower of Scotland,
When will we see
your likes again,
That fought and died for,
Your wee bit Hill and Glen,
And stood against them,
Proud Edward's Army,
And sent them homeward,
Tae think again.

Love these kind videos history is amazing to learn.

Two nations slowly formed and jockeyed for power and over the years they fought and conquered some of each other lands until they joined together because it made sense financially and everyone was fed up with the North being a battleground.

Long story short, in 1603 King James 6th of Scotland took over England without a shot being fired!!!

Over the last 12 months I have been doing my ancestry I have discovered Robert the Bruce is my 22nd maternal GGF, his stoic personality and his ability to never give up, has filtered down through the the dna, despite severe adversity I have always managed to survive, and never give up ❤

[robertkirkpatrick]

It wasn't Kilpatrick but Kirkpatrick my ancestor Roger De Kirkpatrick that aided the bruce in claiming the throne

[tacocruiser]

Is the entire video about Bannockburn? I was hoping they would start at the beginning of the war and go chronologically. Sometimes it feels like Bannockburn gets all the attention.

[craigfowler]

Very interesting documentary with loads of details you dont normally get.

Plus brave reporter at 2:27:05

[clemsonchampchamp]

The Scottish king should have held the camera, camera man never dies
