[Thorsteinn]

I have never heard of this man, but I'm glad I have now.


"To escape is impossible, to surrender unthinkable. Let us fight with bravery and honor our arms."

The youtube link on that page is pretty funny. Definitely sounds like he earned his spot on that page. Sir John wrote about Matthias Corvinus a little while back, too.

YES!  This has made my day!  Thank you for sharing and boy am I amazed and pumped from reading this.

WOW...talk about a medieval icon to model yourself after...if even half of that was true, he wasn't just some knight, but a Peer of the highest order.  Janos Hunyadi...are there men like that in this day and age?  Geez...that's enough to make a lesser man feel inadequate!

Sir William, we need men like Sir John Hunyadi!  His achievements are awesome and arse kicking that I am compelled to model after him and the other Renaissance Knights that I have posted.

That list is an amazing one and if you have not read it you should.

3 modern arse kickers, all Gurka cause, hey, Gurka are cool:
"Every couple of years, the Gurkhas fighting in Afghanistan
get in trouble because they're always beheading the corpses of Taliban fighters.
That's not even a joke."

All alone in Afghanistan-

I would love to see someone else on this board find someone on that list, cause it's kinda big and theres much awesomeness, needful of being talked about.

Agreed!

I read the Gurka ones previously...of the ones I've read in general, all definitely belong.  Hunyadi though...heroic as hell.
