Myth #5: Armor was so heavy, knights were lifted onto horses with rope.
Believing that armor was so heavy, knights couldn’t move is a rather common myth. But who’d send a clumsy knight who couldn’t move properly during a fight?
Medieval knights’ outfits weighed around 45 lb which is 2 times lighter than a modern-day firefighter’s uniform. People who’ve engaged in historical reconstruction can walk and perform acrobatic tricks wearing armor without any help.
