The black knight forbids the king Arthur from passing and saying he will die if he tries. the black knight and king Arthur start fighting and Arthur cuts off one of the black knights arms. the black knight refuses to give up claiming it is but a scratch and continues to go after Arthur. Arthur then cuts off the knights other arm and the knight claims it to be “but a flesh wound” as he continues to kick Arthur armless. Arthur proceeds to cut off one of the knights legs and the knight refuses to admit his defeat while claiming his invincibility. the knight then gets his other leg cut off and then he finally says “alright, we’ll call it a draw” while he is armless and legless. Arthur then starts to leave and the knight is still unwilling to accept his defeat and attempts to mock them for “running away” and threatens them by saying “i’ll bite your legs off”.
This video mocks people in having too much pride and self worth. the knight is really full of himself preventing them from passing. it uses a lot of symbolism of the knight representing the pride filled people there are. the knights response to his limbs being detached was very ironic and he doesn’t seem to grasp the fact that his limbs are gone. he wants to win so badly that he got himself limbless. this shows that sometimes perseverance can be a bad thing when you're trying again doesn’t get any smarter. he also represents people’s refusal to lose to something. he thinks he’s so great that even the idea of losing is inconceivable. the knight has too much pride and doesn’t have the actual talent or brains to match his view of himself.
