#38 - Inside the World of Medieval Combat with Imposter Samuel Wride Part 1
In this episode of The Imposter Podcast, we step into the medieval arena with Samuel Wride, a Buhurt medieval combat athlete and Australian Army veteran.
Buhurt, often described as medieval MMA, is an intense full-contact sport where fighters don historically accurate armor and wield blunt steel weapons in fierce battles that are as physically demanding as they are strategic.
Samuel, a two-time Queensland Buhurt champion and Australian middleweight titleholder, shares his journey from the military to the medieval list. He opens up about the unique challenges of competing in armor that can weigh over 30 kilograms, the intricate rules of Buhurt, and the importance of maintaining a balance between historical authenticity and modern athletic demands. Samuel also discusses the mental and physical resilience required to excel in this sport, where the stakes are high, and the battles are as real as they come.
Whether you're a fan of combat sports, fascinated by medieval history, or curious about the mental toughness required to succeed in such a brutal arena, this episode offers a gripping insight into a world where the past and present collide.
Tune in to explore the path of a modern-day knight and discover what it takes to stand tall in the brutal yet honourable world of Buhurt. You can also check out Samuel’s YouTube channel for more content and behind-the-scenes action
