Trivia: In “Monty Python and the Holy Grail,” King Arthur rides what?
A donkey
A giraffe
A horse
Nothing
The correct answer is Nothing
So why is this answer correct? : “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” is arguably the greatest satire of Arthurian legend. The knights Sir Bedivere, Galahad, Lancelot, and Arthur all make appearances in the film, and go on daring adventures involving murderous rabbits and enchanters named Tim. One long-running joke in the film is that the knights don’t ride horses but are instead accompanied by servants who make the sound of hoofs by clapping coconuts (likely carried to England by swallows).
