With how many times you find: "horse and man fell to the ground", and "he smote him such a buffet", and "armed himself at all points", "hauberk covered in blood" and so on... I'd think that life expectancy wasn't exactly great...

Wasn't Arthur alone responsible for the untimely death of like a dozen kings? :)

Arthur was fictional as far as we can tell, so he was only responsible for the deaths of imaginary kings.

Edit: duh, just saw the smiley. Carry on!

Worse: Arthur is responsible for hundreds of bad self-published fantasy novels.

Yearly.
