[MR] History buff killed by lance as he re-enacts medieval joust for TV’s Time Team

[J. C. Smith Ispán]

"A HISTORY buff died after being speared as he re-enacted a joust for TV’s Time 
Team.
 
"Paul Allen, 54, was struck in the eye by a splinter of lance that pierced a 
slit in his helmet. An inquest heard yesterday that he was not holding his 
shield properly and his headgear was unsuitable for the C4 show’s stunt."
