Imagine being so good at your double-agentry that the country you're spying AGAINST gives you an Iron Cross for such a nice job.
“They took my chickens so I won WWII”. What a legend, an absolute GOAT
He's the embodiment of "We do a little trolling"
The sheer fact that this man looked at the end of world war 2 and said “yep, my work here is done” and lived the rest of his life in obscurity running a bookstore makes him the biggest chad in history imho
“So he faked his death and moved to Venezuela in 1949” is some how the most normal sentence in this entire video
His entire career as a German Spy was just a creative writing exercise
I just imagine Garbo getting the Iron Cross over the radio and just dying laughing with his mic muted.
Don't take this as criticism, but Garcia's wife Carmen played a massive, if not equal role in this story. It was her idea to try the German Embassy, and she pretty much flirted her way into the Nazi's trust.
I love how the Allies literally just said “lmao go off” and Garbo just casually got an Iron Cross.
Guy wrote spy fanfictions so intensely the Germans trusted him, the British got wary of him, and whoever US guy recruiting him must've laughed his ass off twice over hearing his story.
Garbo not only saved a lot of Allied lives with his work, he also saved a lot of German soldiers by getting them stationed at some random beach far away from the D-Day battle.
My man hated politics so much that he ended war using a library and a phone.
"can i be a spy?"
my favourite story about Garbo is he was such a convincing spy that after the war, the SS officer he tricked with the whole D-day thing still didn't blame him, or realise he was in on the trick, and came to visit him in secret where he basically told him "i don't know who i can trust nowadays with the war lost and all, how are we gonna start this all back up? i know out of everyone i can trust you bro"
He got pissed that his farm was seized so he trolled the Germans so hard that he accidentally became one of the greatest double agents in history.
Garbo: I’m a spy now.
The fact that he just moved away and had a normal life with a family. This is the ultimate dad lore
Imagine his mother and sister didn't get arrested, we might be in a different timeline 💀
What I like best about this story, is that at no point did he get into any high tension high stakes spy level danger. The guy was the most effective spy probably ever, and he did it by simply playing telephone.
