As a young man he was considered very much an athletic man. He took part in jousting and almost lost his life in one afternoon when the lance hit him in the head and he fell off his horse. They thought he was going to die. He was very active in games and hunting. I saw his armour as a child in the Tower of London, but of course he never took part in any real battle at any time in his life.

in his young age, he was a brilliant fighter, and spent a lot of his young life jousting, but when he became the Henry you know (big fat guy) he barely walked, so he probably couldn't fight.
