Imagine charging into battle wearing 60 pounds of armor...
on ice.
That’s exactly what happened in 1242 during the Battle of the Ice.
The Teutonic Knights, a German military order, thought they could steamroll the Russians.
Instead, they ended up skating into one of the most embarrassing defeats in medieval history.
Spoiler: ice doesn’t like heavy metal.
The Russian side was led by Prince Alexander Nevsky, who clearly read the weather report.
He lured the knights onto Lake Peipus, knowing the ice wouldn’t hold their weight.
It was like setting a trap with a giant frozen banana peel.
The knights advanced, the ice cracked, and suddenly it was less 'charge!' and more 'splash!'
