We've all seen the movies. Two cowboys meet at sundown across the street from one another, hands hovering anxiously above their holsters as a tumbleweed bounces by and a distant flutist plays suspenseful music. Then suddenly, in the blink of an eye, the men draw their cattleman revolvers and fire. But believe it or not, this heavily romanticized Hollywood version of a duel doesn't even come close to competing with how absurd real world duels have been in history! In this video, we'll cover a blunderbuss duel that takes place in the clouds of Paris, a claustrophobic knife fight in a carriage with no means of escape, and a duel between nobles over who's estate had the most birds!
