Simo Häyhä | The Deadliest Sniper In Military History
Simo Häyhä | The Deadliest Sniper In Military History.
Simo Häyhä, often referred to as "The White Death," was a Finnish marksman and soldier who gained legendary status during the Winter War between Finland and the Soviet Union in 1939-1940. Häyhä's exceptional skill as a sniper made him one of the most renowned snipers in history. Born on December 17, 1905, in Rautjärvi, Finland, he served as a Finnish volunteer in the conflict, and his incredible marksmanship led to him becoming a symbol of Finnish resistance. Häyhä's tactics, including his use of a Mosin-Nagant rifle and his snow camouflage, allowed him to record an astonishing 505 confirmed kills in just 100 days, an unparalleled achievement in modern warfare. His dedication, courage, and deadly accuracy made him a national hero and a symbol of Finnish determination during a challenging period in their history.

So i feel you shorted him for his contributions to society and, ultimately, how many lives he has inadvertently saved with his work.

    I’m a 55 year old man who remembers seeing the movies “Treasure Island” and “Peter Pan” on TV when I was younger. I JUST learned of the star of those films’ demise! Why? I don’t wanna’ demean Mr. Driscoll’s work (he was a real gem in these & other works), but his story goes widely untold. He is a genuine example of the pitfalls of childhood stardom (specifically, Disney stardom). Why do the people who’re s’posed to.protect these stars from such demises keep failing? Why do we bury these things? I should’ve known of Bobby Driscoll’s tragedy a long time ago (not to mention the carers for stars like Britney Spears, Demi Lovato, Dana Plato, etc)! I don’t know if it will help, but to ignore these tragedies is SO wrong. RIP Bobby. You ARE appreciated & loved here. 👍

    I remember watching Tarzan almost every day when I was maybe five or six. He was the only Tarzan in my book. One thing I just learned was that the Tarzan yodel was actually his own creation. I assumed all these years he just lip synced it to someone else’s recording…I don’t know about other people, but it was way too high for me to imitate…. One of my favorite Tarzan scenes was when he jumped into the river then really started swimming as fast as he could while two crocodiles were swimming for him but never getting close. I’m sure they were props, but they were pretty good props because I thought they looked pretty real…I’d like to see it again to see if I still thing it looks real…Oh! And I like how because Tarzan was raised by apes he knew their language. The chimp that hung with Tarzan was “Cheeta.” Yet the kid found in the jungle he never bothered to name other than “Boy.” That might have been Edgar Rice Burroughs doing though he wasn’t in the original book, but Burroughs seemed a bit raciest so maybe the original wasn’t supposed to be white…
