Shooting an apple off one's child's head
Shooting an apple off one's child's head, also known as apple-shot (from German ''ドイツ語:Apfelschuss'') is a feat of marksmanship with a bow or crossbow that occurs as a motif in a number of legends in Germanic folklore (and has been connected with non-European folklore). In the Stith Thompson Motif Index it is F661.3, described as "Skillful marksman shoots apple from man's head" or "apple shot from man's head",〔Stith Thompson, ''Motif-Index of Folk-Literature: Index A-K : A Classification of Narrative Elements in Folktales, Ballads, Myths, Fables, Mediaeval Romances, Exempla, Fabliaux, Jest-Books, and Local Legends'', repr. Bloomington, Indiana: Indiana University Press, 2001, ISBN 0-253-34089-6, (pp. 29, "apple," 368, "head" ).〕 though it always occurs in the form of the marksman being ordered to shoot an apple (or occasionally another smaller object) off his own son's head. It is best known as William Tell's feat.〔Stith Thompson, (p. 783 ): "Tell shoots apple from son's head."〕
