The sword in the stone was not Excalibur. Excalibur was given to Arthur by the Lady in the Lake after the sword in the stone was broken during a duel.

There was a 2 part TV movie called Merlin staring Sam Neil and in that retelling the stone was actually the hand of a rock giant who held the sword until Merlin told the giant to let go.

The stone is but the tip of a buried house-size boulder, which you would be standing on, and therefore unable to lift no matter how strong.

This is a gag from a cartoon, I just can't remember it

I think it was castlevania that had a weapon that was Excalibur with the stone still attached and you could swing it like a regular weapon haha

You gonna argue with someone weilding a giant stone and sword hammer? He's whatever he wants to be.

I think I've seen a webcomic featuring a big dumb barbarian wielding a boulder on a sword like this. The sword was sentient and very frustrated by its predicament. It might have eventually warmed up to the barbarian or guided him through honorable deeds.

Congrats, you invented the Kirkhammer.

Sounds like the kind of chenanigans a tabletop rpg party would come up.

And then the dm lets out a deep sigh, starts going through his notes and decides all his prep work is out of the window (again) so now a random angry mob of high level ogres appears.

Beast hunters in Yharnam: Yes and its pretty sweet

Perhaps you should ask the Lady of the Lake

if its enchanted by magic by merlin, it wouldnt be able to lifted by a human.

hm, probably not. but I think destroying the rock by swinging it against another, harder rock would make you worthy

Basically, could the hulk lift Thor while Thor is holding Mjulnor?

You would wield the mace Excalibur.

Honestly, an even more imposing weapon.

What, Thor is switching to swords now?

I know the answer, but you wont like it
