There are many reasons for re-enacting history, and the bottom line seems to be fun. Of course combat re-enactment is kept safe, which also keeps it fun, but there is a whole lot more to living history, such as the garb (period clothing), which helps you feel the part, as well as being fun to wear, and the feasting is much enjoyed too. There's games and activities, as well as skills and crafts of old kept alive, and the social scene is really neat 'cos medievalists are generally very sociable people.
