Скачать или смотреть What It Was Like to Be a Medieval Knight | Boring History for Sleep

Fall asleep to the story of a medieval knight — from a frightened seven-year-old boy sent away from home, through years of brutal training as a page and squire, to the moment the sword touches your shoulder and you finally become a knight.

Over 4 hours of slow, warm storytelling designed to help you drift off peacefully. The first 2 hours are narrated history, followed by 2 hours of soft ambient fireplace sounds — so the video keeps playing long after you've fallen asleep. No mid-roll ads. No sudden noises. No jumpscares. Just history, told slowly, the way it should be.

This video covers:
• Leaving home at age 7 — sent to serve as a page in a lord's castle
• Castle life — the cold, the chores, the food, the endless scrubbing
• Sleeping on straw, eating with your hands, praying in frozen chapels
• Training with wooden swords — the bruises that never fade
• Becoming a squire at 14 — serving a knight, learning to ride warhorses
• The weight of real armor — heat, sweat, and the smell of iron
• The dubbing ceremony — the night vigil, the oath, the moment you become a knight
• Daily life as a knight — training, prayers, meals, boredom
• Tournaments and jousting — the reality behind the spectacle
• Going to war — marching, camping, waiting, and the rare chaos of battle
• Siege warfare — long, boring, and brutal
• Medieval medicine — you don't want to know
• Chivalry vs reality — the code versus what actually happened
• Marriage, politics, and survival
• Growing old in armor — the body wearing down
• A knight's final days — hanging up the sword for the last time
