Can you give historical examples where feudal lords were taken down, how were they taken down!?

The Magna Carta did a good job of “taking down” the feudal lords, but the main job was done by the Black Plague in the mid 14th century. Specifically, the labor supply became limited and the feudal lords and those who lived in the manor had to bargain for their labor, they were unable to force anyone to do anything because there were too many land owners in need and the labor force, often including women, would sell their services to the highest bidder. There were many landowners who saw their crops and their herds die in the fields. The Black Plague was a leveller in that regard.
