“I cannot be a traitor, for I owe him no allegiance. He is not my sovereign; he never received my homage; and whilst life is in this persecuted body, he never shall receive it” William Wallace

Bro you do not get the credit you deserve. This channel consistently puts out such high quality and FREE content it’s crazy. You and your team deserve all the good things that come to you

[meandmetoo]

I'm seeing this guy's face more than my roomate.

Wallace the warrior
Wallce the brave
Never for him the cold quiet grave
Though they chained him and maimed him and he died like a slave
Still the last word he gave us was freedom

[JamesFromTexas]

Please, please, please do more Scottish biographies! Absolutely love this channel. Top notch work.

Can you do one on Robert the Bruce or William the Conqueror

[alice]

The fact Braveheart didn’t acknowledge a bridge (the main factor in winning) at Stirling was frustrating

[oberstul]

"I shall tell you of William Wallace. Historians from England will say I am a liar, but history is written by those who have hanged heroes."

[snippyJ]

Braveheart may not have been a completely truthful tell but it sure was a damn good story!

[sandrastreifel]

My Scottish Granny taught me a little about Wm. Wallace in the 1960’s. His story is still told, all over the world.

[jakeharris]

"They fought like warrior poets. They fought like Scotsmen, and won their freedom."

[aperson]

“England and France were embroiled in conflict” What else is new? Lol

[mohd.hammad]

This whole video: "did it happen?, Well maybe and maybe not"

[fcukugimmeausername]

You forgot to mention where he yelled just before he died.

[AshtonGleckman]

sorry. I had to.
I'll leave now.

[samrevlej]

Fun fact: "Braveheart" was actually Robert the Bruce's nickname. Even the movie's title is wrong...
Robert the Bruce is the true hero of Scottish independence. It was Wallace's martyrdom that accomplished the most for the Scottish cause, not his actions.

[neildiamondo]

How were Wallace and his men rebels? They were in the right. Longshanks and the southron were the rebels.

I love how you bring so much more detain into your Bio mini bio docu series. I always learn more about historical figures I have already studied. We watch you together as a family before bed or sometimes at Love it!

[orecvetkovic]

Wallace show the way!
Led us to this day!
Here at Bannockburn,
Freedom we have earned!
