Knights on horseback pose for a picture during a press event ahead of the 2024 Easter International Jousting Tournament held at the Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds on March 28, 2024 in Leeds, England. The event brings together six international jousters from France, Italy and a UK home team for 4 days of jousting across the Easter weekend. Jousters wear full armour as they ride the horses that will carry them and their 35kgs of armour at speeds of up to 30mph along a purpose-built jousting arena or 'Tiltyard'. Points are awarded for: horsemanship, lance skills as well as the accuracy and striking power in the joust. (Photo by Ian Forsyth/Getty Images)
