Question: Why were Jack and Ennis fighting on the hill on Brokeback Mountain? Ennis's nosebleed looked pretty serious.

Question: What did Ennis mean at the end of the movie when he says "Jack, I swear"? It seemed really out of place.
Answer: I feel it meant "I swear our love will never die." Or "I swear I'll love you forever."
Answer: There's been a lot of discussion as to what this line actually means, but there's no definitive answer.
I feel like it is a statement of loss, what they had, what could have been, but Jack is now gone. They will never be together again, but the strong feelings of love and hurt that Ennis has been, and always will be, there.

Answer: At first they were just wrestling and horsing around. However, underlying tensions and frustrations over their impossible situation, and Ennis' reluctance to commit to Jack, causes their anger (particularly Jack's) to overtake them, and it erupts into a full-blown fight.
