The chances to get killed in combat as a soldier in WW1 were about 30%, wounded was also about 30%. More people died from disease.

So much to disagree with here, like a white girl when starbucks gets her order wrong, i simply cant even.

Is every question going to be something the most basic article on Titanic will answer? 🙄 Was it real ffs!

This is a fascinating historical building but the presentation is so stilted. Dan Snow even looks bored at times! A great shame. It could have been really good.

Putin wants to start it all again! We don't learn!

So the Holocaust film with a German hero and a happy ending comes top??? And Braveheart places higher than Dunkirk. No Das Boot, no Idi Smotri, no War & Peace. Can't see the criteria here....

This is Jewish -British PROPAGANDA, FAKE PALACE'S BY ARTHOUR EVANS FAKE FRESCOES AND FAKE CLAY TABLETS, HE PROPAGATE IN "SCRIPTA MINOA" THAT JEWISH -SEMITES WERE LIVING IN GREECE BEFORE GREEKS

See....The Monocled Mutineer a great TV series.....which some have suggested has been "restricted" in availability....deliberately. From this stuff you can understand the British forbearance in the face of deliberate incompetance on migration control.....which is now basically out of control......part of a great strategy which could see the collapse of Britain.

Ernst Jünger did just fine

Napoleon was not a military genius, a brave man indeed

Be nice if Dan could manage one or two correct French place names. "Kom-Penn", really?

It seems that some people take movies much to seriously.

I have 2 arguments against the argument that only the front row counts: 1. If people fall in the front, they can be replaced by people from further back 2. If that was the case, in open field battles armies would just spread out into one long row. This never happened in large armies.

My great grandfather was at the battle of Midway and the battle of Okinawa. He used to tell me stories about them and he even had classic naval tattoos. He was a living bad ass and also a very sweet and loving man. RIP Papa

They had the best equipment. You’d have a better chance in the German army than any of the others lol

Yea but I wouldn’t be following the traditional “charge” orders. Idk why guerrilla tactics weren’t used

She should have rated Elizabeth I (2005) starring Helen Mirren.

This guy didn't seem to even get the calafornian representation in the movie right. He said the calafornian wasn't represented in the movie when it absolutely was. both when the message came through regarding Ice on the wireless it blasted the operaters ears that was in the movie and in reality that was caused by the close proximity of the two ships and in the sinking there is a moment where the californian lights can be seen. its a blink and you miss it moment but its there.

The Germans got toilets and underground bunkers yet our guys had to shit in a hole and sleep in the filth. Absolutely abysmal.

Some coal was transferred to the other side if ship making it actually help with the sinking giving more time before sge went down

This is bullshit

If it's the Dark Ages I'd go for a lightsaber, because the glow will help me see my opponent (you know... *dark* ages...).

Its not a "fact" that Murdoch shot anyone then himself. Some even claimed it was wilde

The biggest mystery in these sites is that pagans didn't destroy what they couldn't explain. That is still in existance today from ancient sites destroyed because they don't follow the "god" the locals proscribe to, down to the mystery monoliths that appeared during Covid, destroyed by nutters. This is why we can't have good stuff in the modern world.

What about the longsword, the broadsword, the claymore, the scimitar? The spear, the lance, the kendo stick?

My Grandfather’s MC citation. I am excising his name as it’s my family name and I never use specific personal details on social media: T.Sec Lt X, ASC (meaning, temporary second lieutenant, army service corps, I think he was made up from corporal presumably on merit or because the officers were dying too fast) “For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty in loading up stores and supplies during an evacuation when he carried on with his work in spite of a heavy bombardment. Again he showed great coolness while in charge of mechanical transport convoys, which were being bombed and machine-gunned by enemy aeroplanes.” I look at those words so often I can almost recite them verbatim and I wonder whether I have in me the necessary reserves of courage and resilience that he had, over a hundred years ago, when the tasks of war fell to him. I’m serving now in the navy after twenty years and I’m 45, seventeen years older than he was when he did those things in 1918. He was born in 1890 and died in 1970, nine years before I was born. He sired my dad in 1938, when he was three years older than I am now. Long time between generations in my family. I’ve two daughters now and I’m wondering about whether we’ll try for a son when I leave the navy. Will he see out the next big war? I hope I never live to see war brought to my children. But if it comes, I’ll keep his memory in my heart.

11:57 Excellent example of survivorship bias.

Matt Lewis is no medieval historian. According to his own banner at 0:10 he is in fact a mediveal historian. For those of you who don't know what that is, he studies the history of medically treated calf meat. But fine. Let's see what he thinks he knows about weaponry.

I got all excited seeing the title of this video, thinking it might be some glorious new find. Nope! Just a retelling of old Pliny's letter, the one and only eye-witness account of the eruption---and that written many, many years after the fact. I don't have anything against Pliny, it's just the title is very misleading.

Im using this for dnd lol. Artificer btw

The French and British did not listen

That was a big lie of Putin by spreading rumors that his grandfather was a cook for Stalin (or Lenin)! Come on, if you know the story about Stalin... He had only one woman whom he trusted and she was cooking, and taking care of Stalin all of her life. Putin is as much a pathological and constant liar who built the myths around himself as Trump in the US!

Putin could end up victorious if he wouldn't start this stupid war in Ukraine that will destroy him and Russia in the end! His 'hooligan' like cocky arrogance got hold of him and that why he's going to lose!

I thought the Edwardian era started in 1901 as the Victorian era ended?

I did not walk away from this video liking that "Vlad" guy very much to be fair. Can not imagine having my avocado/egg/bacon sandwhich while watching humans being impaled. Usually a tiny bit more salt turns things around for me lunch wise.

Absolutely!!! Stop saying this!

*Would You Survive...?" That's English, not could you survive. Yeah, I could. Could. That's chance. Would is based on a decision. Would is based on trying and suggests something other than chance.

Excellent informative video

Director Peter Weir is a brilliant filmmaker in all genres. Compare his meticulous accuracy with the slapdash falsities promulgated by Ridley Scott in Napoleon.

Grecian states have better porn hundreds of years earlier all stylized & perfect 2D flat ..these were almost impressionism

An exceptional film renowned for realism to be sure. However, the premise of a 28-gun sixth rate 9 lbr frigate that managed to survive to 1805 being sent under a capable captain to chase a 40+ gun 18 lbr frigate around South America is taking quite the artistic license. 9 pdr ships had basically been phased out as a core frigate class by the 1790s and the few that survived into the 1800s would have been detailed to fill up numbers on foreign stations, not challenge the best modern enemy frigates in ship duels. In 1805, unless some admiral or politician really wanted Aubrey dead or out of the way for a long time, they’d send Surprise to guard the Channel against the invasion flotilla and send a carefully chosen 38 to chase Acheron. That being said, there’s nothing to prevent a West or East Indies squadron 6th rate from having much the same encounters with such a Frenchman that got past the blockade.

Hitler pleaded for peace over 12 times before he finally advanced on france. He could no longer let the buildup continue or germany would of been doomed. And also once he learned churchill was prime minister he knew peace was lost completely. Poland was tricked into starting a war with germany because germany freed herself from international finance and showed the world how to thrive without so she had to be destroyed by west. The soviet union also invaded poland but no war was declared on soviets. Put the clues together people.

It's amazing

Nope

Crow at his very best 👍

I love Eleanor Janega and her series' but CZcams showed a commercial every 2 1/2 minutes and this was impossible to watch. This is becoming a real problem!

Thank you. While I already knew a lot of what you explained, there were definitely things I didn’t know. ✌️

Interesting but imho no real evidence he was Jack the Ripper.
