The population didn't flood to the defence of Jerusalem. Nobody wanted to fight. How Balian inspired the few that would fight against hopeless odds is incredible.
He didn't have to because unlike this movie balian was the third top military commander of the battle of hittin and escaped with a handful of soldiers and combined with the city garrison and other knights from neighboring castels they held the city for couple of days waiting for a support but when non came they surrendered
0:38 that distance must be half a mile out from the perimeter walls, those trebuchet siege weapons cannot launch heavier projectiles for over that distance, just movie magic.
@@al28854 That's right. In Kingdom of Heaven (Director's Cut Roadshow Version), there are additional scenes such as the deaths of the TWO LEPER KINGS, among others.

The directors cut is the best version and a must watch.
Hilarious scene. Saracens have more firepower here than Germans had at Stalingrad.
At Stalingrad the only purpose to use fire was not to freeze to death.

No you are wrong they borrowed some secondhand rocket launchers from Hamas...going cheap!
God wills it, GOD WILLS ITTTTTTTTTTTT!
@@EarlOfLemongrabb Which bit does God will?
The luck that the camreaMan carries while shooting these scenes
Love how they think those few clay pots worth of water is going to put out the massive oil soaked fire ballistics.
0:52 BOOM! That’s one awesome EXPLOSION! Michael Bay would be proud 💥
