This will be the first time Sir William's sword will have left its home shores, and it may be the last. Interesting little
story, but that isn't what caught my eye. Instead, it was this quote in the story:
"The sword itself tells us that Wallace was a giant of a man, most likely standing more than 6ft 6in tall."
Which made this exchange from Braveheart pop into my mind:
"Sons of Scotland! I am William Wallace!"
"Wallace is seven feet tall!"
"Yes, I've heard! Kills men by the hundreds! And if he were here, he'd consume the English with balls of fire from his eyes....and bolts of lightning from his arse!"
Damn movies and their catchy lines.
