Monty Python and the Holy Grail - Black Knight

One of the best scenes in the movie, hope you enjoy!

Fun fact: The animal on the black Knights chest is a wild boar An animal known to ignore fatal wounds To keep on fighting

In the Black Knight's defense, he did just have a heated battle right before ...I call it a draw as well and schedule a rematch.

[ShadowFox]

Arthur cheated. He never got off his horse.

[rheasilverstorm]

what’s funny as hell to me is that fight between the two knights in the beginning is way closer to what armoured combat would’ve looked like than most serious dramas, but it’s made to look absurdly silly.

Once I was in a car accident where I broke my knee and sternum, and shattered both my hands. My physical therapist used to call me The Black Knight.

This is some really good for honor gameplay

[rdhunkins]

Let's take a moment to appreciate the sound design. The grunting by the combatants, the Tweeting birds, the sound of blood hitting the ground, the clang of the black knight's helm being hit by Excalibur's pommel..

[JDMatthias]

What a horrible superpower. Limbless but invincible

[tipology]

The slight body tilt when he slices his last leg off always got me 😂

[davidselby]

One of THE funniest ever. Thank you Monty python

[Jasel]

"tis but a scratch" & "alright, we'll call it a draw" are two of the funniest lines ever! Great movie. Without cg and special effects people these days wouldn't even pay attention to it for a second. What a classic!!

[bovineapples]

Technically he is fighting while he is on his "horse" cause he never got off. 😆

[jasontheman]

He fight with or without his arms and legs because even without them he is still brave. Your arms and legs do not define who you are.

[CO_Mo]

The first fight at the beginning was well choreographed

[FlatBoi]

“Tis’ but a scratch!”
“A scratch? Your arms off!”
“No it isnt!”
“Whats that then!?”
*sudden silence*
“I’ve had worse!”
“You liar!”
“Come on, pansy!”
*fighting*
*black knights right arm is chopped off*
“Victory is mine!”
“We thank thy lord, that in thy mercy——
*black knight kicks Arthur*
“Come on, then!”
“What?”
“Have at you!”
“You are indeed brave, sir knight. But the fight is mine!”
“Ohh had enough, eh?”
“Look you stupid bastard you got no arms left!”
“Yes I have.”
“LOOK!!”
“Just a flesh wound”
“Look! Stop that!”
“Chicken!! Chicken!!”
“Look, Ill have your leg!”
“RIGHT”
*right leg comes off*
“Right, Ill do you for that!”
“Youll WHAT?”
“Come ‘ere!”
“What’re you going to do, bleed on me?”
“Im INVINCIBLE!”
“Youre a loony”
“The Black Knight always triumphs!”
“Have at you!”
*Arthur chops left leg off, black knight has no more limbs*
*sudden confusion and silence*
“Aight we’ll call it a draw.”
“C’mon patsy!”
“Oh, had enough eh!?”
“Come back and take whats coming for you, you yellow bastards!”
“Come back here and take whats coming for you!”
“Ill bite your legs off!”

[David-jlpk]

The Black Knight claims he’s invincible but he doesn’t have a leg to stand on!😎

[falcougeoutpost]

This type of comedy is one of a kind. They don't make 'em like this anymore. One classic scene after another.

[brandonromano]

Rumor has it the vindictive stump of the black knight is still guarding that bridge today.

[sandmars]

Damn, swinging like that a two handed sword with only one arm. The black knight has some strength.

[LukePeckham]

The part where Arthur says “you stupid bastard, you’ve got no arms left” cracks me up
