The disloyalty of the nobles really cost Richard this battle
@justinneill5003
This gives a great perspective of the battlefield and phases of the fighting. A further interesting detail is that after slaying Henry’s Standard Bearer (William Brandon) by skewering him with his lance, Richard went on to knock Henry’s personal guard (John Cheyne) off his horse with the broken end of his lance, leaving him unconscious. This was probably the closest Richard got to Henry himself. To put this feat into perspective, John Cheyne (known as the “Vigorous Knight”). was a giant; a 21” thigh bone removed from his tomb in Salisbury puts his height at 6’8”.

@BadGamerPlays
Great Vid. There was actually many prospect brides for Richard III. One of them was 'Blessed' Joanna of Portugal. Supposedly she had a dream of Richard's defeat at Bosworth the day before the battle.
@ak9989
very nice. I spent 45 days in the UK driving around flying from California and went to Bosworth. England is so green and that is why I choose to live in the high Sierra's!
@stu1c
Graphics are outstanding mate.. this needs more views
@bougeac
Brilliant video, first time I’ve seen Bosworth portrayed in an easy to understand way, subscribed!
@leonidasj406
Richard III suffered from scoliosis, confirmed when archaeologists found his skeleton. That alone made his bid to go out and face his rival on the field of battle about as courageous as one can be. He was greatly maligned by Shakespeare in his historical play, but given Elizabeth I was herself a Tudor, it was in the bard's best interest to portray the heritage of the reigning monarch in the most favored light, or he just might have lost his head.

Thank you for all the hard work I know you put into your videos! It visibly explains to those of us who are “ visual learners”…. Legend has it that Henry’s stepfather , Lord Stanley’s decision to side with his major forces in loyalty to his stepson , Henry Tudor, made the tipping of the battle to his advantage. Also , as is often stated, Lord Stanley found Richard’s crown in some brush or bushes and that it was he who placed it on Henry’s head at the end of the battle. What an amazing time it must have been .
@sircalvin83
These are great! Keep 'em coming!
@randomguyontheinternet8345
I like how we mostly agree that Richard went out like a Boss.
@KHK001
Been waiting for this one! Thanks for your dedication and hard work!
@sunwukong993
i enjoy these a lot your animations are really good
@gideon6331
What made Henry VII think a traitor like Stanley would be loyal to him after he betrayed Richard III, Richard III was certainly brave and a warrior, too brave for his own good as it worked out.

I think it's time for a Manzikert or perhaps a Dyrrachion. The battles of the ERE are full of wonders
@boomerreb4997
This is an excellent depiction of the campaign of 1485 and Bosworth Field. But I do take issue with some of the statements regarding Richard's accession. His brother made him Protector; he did not take that office on his own initiative. I think he was in a very tough situation and that most people in the government recognized the dangers of a child king after such a long period of civil war. But thank you for the great work on the battle itself.
@10toMidnight
This animation pulls the history and the battle together in an excellent presentation. Well done.
@mercianthane2503
Still wondering how much time you spent making all of this. It is a wonderful work!
@jerryumfress9030
