People in an MMA octagon, fighting in full medieval armour. With weapons. My interest was immediately captured, so I started investigating.

We learn about the value of community, what binds together this self-proscribed group of ‘weirdos’. By following them in their journey I ask, what makes you get in armour, why did you choose this as a hobby, and more importantly, what makes you stay? 1468ae5a-b425-4db7-904b-9ec9eff2a602 Sometime last year I came across something I'd never seen before.
