Someone asked what type of horse a knight in shining armor might ride.

Don’t know what breed this horse is, but it has the size to carry a Knight in shining armor - plus probably some armor fro the horse itself.

Got me curious:

"...The horses that the knights used were very large and heavy, similar to draught horses of today, but highly trained and far from clumsy. These battle horses, wore a suit of armour too!..."  https://www.pitara.com/science-for-kids/5ws-and-h/what-kind-of-horses-did-knights-ride/

At least they are using better hearing protection now.  With the equivalent of lawn mower hearing protection, every three months I got blown ear drums.

Lots of veterans of various services with hearing issues.  Now days there is some good hearing protection if used correctly.

Thus my fascination with suppressors.  But, for my own use, these days, I picked out hearing pro, that blocks out the noise, and you can still have a conversation.  Technology has certainly advanced a lot.

Not only gun fire is a problem but aircraft and other loud noise of equipment,  Can't imagine the noise level on an active carrier flight deck.  Just got some new muffs with the built in mics.
