- Not Michael Knight but Helge Meyer "a loner on a crusade to champion the cause of the innocent, the helpless, the powerless". With the help of the US forces he took a standard Camaro and turned it into an armored lifeline for those in need in the former Yugoslavia.
Thanks to Helge for supplying us with the reference photos at the end of this video and for putting us straight on some of the points in the text. Any errors or embellishments are our own.
Thanks also to our Patreons, Benson's Grandpa who features in this video as well as Onyx, Falcon02 and Holden Hatchcock.

Meyer: I want Camaro
US forces: Good idea. We like this idea.
Insert take all my money meme here
A-team: Oh...we'll do you one better.
it was painted with rader abosed paint from us army..the only reason why he don't got find out since rader don't show up so they don't know he was there..
@@campkira yea captain obvious
Yugoslavia: No you can’t just help people and avoid radar in a camaro
Meyer: Haha camaro go Vroom Vroom!
I swear this needs to be a movie complete with 80s/90s aesthetic
@@henrymartin7784 i agree
Its Knight Rider 2
considering how many trips this guy made, it could be a TV series.
Yeah, they need to get YarnHub for this.
@@henrymartin7784 or midnight rider-
US Army to Helge: Alright. What do you need? A Up Armored Humvee?
Helge: A Camaro. A Chevy Camaro and some Mechanics.
US Army: _Now we're talking._
"So what are you, exactly? What do you want to do?"
"Helge Meyer, ex-Jaegercorps. I'm here to help."
"Ah, now you're speaking our language. We'll ready your car. You need a gun?"
"My Bible is all I need."
"Evidently we have some regional dialect differences, but you know what? Good on you."
Don't forget the rubber ducky.
Helge to the mechanics: ever heard of knight rider?
There is some country that could use a whole lot of people like him wright now
Pov:1980-90's
All the crap being produced in Hollywood, and great true stories like this go untold.
Isn't that the truth. Well said.
I hope that they make it as real as possible and not over dramatic or anything on the film
that's because the people allowed to write for Hollywood are sheltered af.
its not true, 30 seconds of a google will tell you, if your curious as to why i think its not true. basically why would an army commander be stationed at an airbase why would a transportation airbase have stealth paint and if they did why would they give it to a random Danish dude with no clearance, green berets have NEVER train anyone not in the us military, they do joint excersies but that's different, he wouldve been 8-10 years old when he received said training. hes poorly written german book was never translated into english where it would be more scrunitized and probably dismissed fairly quickly, do i need to go on? hollywood probably stayed away from this weird ass story for a reason, very cool story i wanted to read more, i was all in, but than two seconds of google and now im sad.
"Despite perilous conditions, Meyer always went unarmed. His only weapon he needed was his Bible"
Desmond Doss: "Thats my boy right there"
Oh that's cool
Haha they would have made great friends
YES!!!!!
YO,I JUST REALIZED THAT
YOU,MY FRIEND,DESERVE A LIKE
Yugoslavia: *is in civil unrest*
God's Rambo and his Ghost Camaro: Cowabungga it is!
Cowabungfa why not yipee ki ya
it was painted with rader abosed paint from us army..the only reason why he don't got find out since rader don't show up so they don't know he was there..
"Alright, it's finished."
"Wait it still needs something!"
*puts on a rubber duck*
and everybody clapped
Helge Meyer had the humor sensibility of an American. I so want to meet this man and shake his hand for finding a way to help people in a desperate time. Oh and the cassette player still worked. You young people may have to look that up.
@@thomasb1889 Proving that we are all made by and for God Almighty; for His good pleasure. It is written. We are all brothers/sisters. It is the evil of the world and the humans who side with them that cause ALL horrible things to happen to the masses of the world. It is written.
@@millerscorner2 The problem is the churches that are the problem and so many have died because of them over the years as fanatics have taken over. I was watching CSI on Pluto last night and a priest asked Grissom if he believed. His response was I believe in God but I do not believe in churches which is where I have been for a long time.
Perfect
I love how at 0:19 the writing on the radar just says: "ze top sekret radar"
this isn't a translation, it literally says that, just that the english letters are replaced with cyrillic ones
I am Bulgarian so i understand cyrillic since this was in the balkans i thought it was a usual writing, after seeing this comment i checked and thought to myself, OMG IT'S TRUE
lol cool detail

_Ford Motor Company has disliked the video_
US Command: "How are we gonna transport all these goods quickly?"
Helge: "MO POWA BABEH!"
I never expected a Donut Media reference on this channel
LIGHTNING LIGHTNING LIGHTNING!
This is so underrated
#donutmedia Yeah that was the first thing I tough when they said he has Nos in the car
I could see George miller making a movie out of this since he did make mad max
Enemy Soldiers: "is that a rubber duck floating in the air?"
Just had me thinking of a headline: "Armed bandits taken down by rubber duck at night."
I wonder if he still has that rubber duck? He still has the car!
@@walterdayrit675 I honestly would hope he still does!
LOL
no-one is talking about helge literally helping with the video
It would be Epic if there's a movie about the ghost camaro
Hollywood would ruin it.
@@pontiacfan76 Probably, and the additional problem is that there is no really viable high budget alternative.
Ryan Gosling can play Helge.

@@pontiacfan76 how about we give the rights to Bollywood? I bet the indians would do an epic job with this concept
He's the kind of person to be turned into a saint by the Catholic church in 50 or 100 years after his death.
Imagine the description of it though
"Saint Helge Meyers was a soldier of the Danish special forces who drove a heavily modified, blacked out Camaro into war-torn Yugoslavia to deliver aid to civilians stuck in the Yugoslavian Civil War at that time, he did all of his aid runs unarmed and with his Holy Bible at his side."
Well, he'd have to be Catholic (he's likely this or Lutheran) and of exceptional character and faith. And a papal commission of scholars and secular scientists would have to research his deeds to determine whether a truly miraculous act had taken place.
Personally? I think he could at the very least get a papal commendation upon his death.
More like:Saint Helge Meyer - the patron saint of selfless badasses...
I think coming from Denmark he's more likely to be protestant. The pope would call him a heathen for not worshipping him.
@@gusjeazer the pope is not God.
@@marrerowski exactly my point. He thinks he is.
3:07 I don't know why that cat has a blowtorch but it's adorablele so I won't question it
I think he/she is Yarnhub's mascot.
@@m_0714 it is, it’s in every video
“I want to drive a mad max style muscle car to get past patrols to deliver supplies to children in the balkans”
The World: you’re crazy
US Army: That may be the most... AWESOME thing I ever heard, here, have a Camaro
there's A LOT of overlap between crazy and awesome.
I have family who are from Vareš in Bosnia. They always told us stories about an American bringing them food, water, clothes and medicine in a fast, dark car, usually at night. Now I guess I know he wasn't an American, thank you Helge Meyer for helping out those in need of help, I wish more people were like you!
You're family was helped by him?!
He may not have been American but we supported him with this endeavor.
Every time Meyer returned:
MISSION PASSED
RESPECT +
+200$ budget
Yes more money for supplies and N I T R O S
Yugoslavia: (is in a civil war)
Helge: *(eurobeat intensifies)*
He shoulda put some Supereurobeat cassetes instead xD
Ok now my brain is imaging all the thing with Deja vu and Gas ahahah

Simple History: Talks about more popular moments.
Yarn Hub: Does everything with style, regardless whether they are known or not. They just do everything right.
Simple History does that because well, it's simple history
"Simple History" as in schools and TV?
@MDDeGrande1994 OP is talking about the CZcams channel (which I will always recommend for the fact that they give you a great amount of information in simple animated videos that are easy to follow).
This is the most 90's war story known to man.
*70's
He doesn't want to be thought of as a hero, but isn't that what a hero should be?
This guy is a textbook definition of a hero, I can't believe it. He might not want to be called a hero, but he is the most damn heroic guy i've ever heard of.
@@somedood9989 nah he is bad-ss
he is a badass hero not a hero, there is a difference
This guy gives “badass” a new definition. Wow. What a badass.
A true viking.
I met helge meyer years ago in germany.
Without a doubt the nicest man i have ever met,and that camaro was downright awesome,and im a dodge guy lol
I espacially like that you try to cover stories that hasnt been told or well known.
Animation is smooth and your storytelling is great. Keep up the good work.
I couldn’t agree more.
Yep, agree with that
And let's be honest we're all jealous of his voice
I couldn't agree more!! :D
I made a video of this like a month ago and MAN I wish I knew how to do it like these guys lol
Damn the scene where helge and the man reads the Bible and the Koran respectively made me shudders.
A toast to your health Yarnhub team, another job well done!
I know right, it was beautiful and touching
I agree
No more of the "my religion is better!" No! Mine is!" bullshit
We should respect one another and respect each other's religion
It call quran and im Islamic
@@caroleansoldier382 Yes. It is called the Quran but I guess English/American people spell it as Koran.
I am also religiously Christian. I do not care who you worship as I will not shove my belief down your throat as I respect it. God is definitely at Meyer’s side.
I want Sabaton to write a song about this "not a hero but someone who wanted to help and do good" because boy do we need that metal ballad
Much as I love Sabaton. It better be on par with a Judas Priest song.
Nah more like 80s techno/synthwave with Bible chorus in the middle
I know I'm commenting on a 2-year-old video and I do not care. The use of the special team to outfit the vehicle excellent. Just phenomenally excellent.
The man.
The car.
The nitrous oxide.
Y'all know what, he would've done way more runs if HIS TITANIC STEEL BALLS didn't weigh the car down.
it was painted with rader abosed paint from us army..the only reason why he don't got find out since rader don't show up so they don't know he was there..
@@campkira That had nothing to do with his comment.
Maksymilian S
They took up a lot of room that could’ve been used for more supplies .
I honestly thought...''What's laughing gas going to do ''
The rubber duck.
The definition of straight up BADASS:
A unarmed man in a fast, armored matte black undetectable 1970 Chevy Camaro with NOS. Carrying food and medicine to the war refugees and needed civilians in a dangerous bloody war in the Bosnian region while being fired by enemies in the distance at high speeds.
Somebody needs to do that in Ukraine!
@@bucherwurm5344 True!
*1979
With The Rubber Ducky.
My grandmother was from Denmark. When I told her about Helge, she felt proud to be Danish.
Helge was the real ghost rider.
As an avid Camaro enthusiast who currently has a 1980 Z/28 Camaro, I could not be happier to discover the existence of the Ghost Camaro 🥰
Mad max would have loved this Camaro.
Agree
Disagree, he f*n loves Ford and ima bet everything if there isnt a V8 Interceptor left in the Wasteland he gonna MacGyver one together
Ayaan Vlogs but thats about the Car not the Parts
"Loved this camaro?" Mad Max would simp for it just to look at the tire marks that could have been possibly left behind by the car.
A fella. A quick fella, might have a bible under there. I'd have to pin his head to the panel.
_Fast and Generous 10: Balkan Drift_
Idk if someone has commented this idk it just passes thru my mind lol.
omg... genius
It least this one is happened for real!
what a 1000+ iq thinking right there
I just laughed so hard at this my wife was like wtf
This is big brain
Is that Mr. T - coming back for a new idea of an A-Team vehicle? (02:26)
And If that's not a modified A-Team theme playing in the background, then
the world must be spinning in reverse! Kudos and Respects for the allusion!
I love that he still has the Camaro today!
Meyer: I want to help those in need with a camaro an-
Army: you had us at Camaro
say no more!
This reminds me of the paratrooper medics who made a hospital in a church in Normandy and treated soldiers of both sides, that one was truly amazing and this story is also quite touching.
What's the phrase? "In extraordinary circumstances, ordinary men react extraordinarily, and the extraordinary react heroically"?
Funny that this story got covered by this channel a few years later.
@@Baldwin-iv445 czcams.com/video/X9kICMQ6DEM/video.html
This was literally the most bad ass piece of history I've ever heard....
This car should be immortalized by a die-cast model!
The mods on this Camaro just gave customizers some mad ideaz!!!
Haven’t even seen it yet, already know it’ll be amazing. Best animations and story yet.
After watching it, man. I’d love to hear more about this guy.
hi
@@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa1261 hello
Same here✌️
He protecc
He not attacc
But most importantly
*To the helpless, he always gets bacc!*
Thanks Yarnhub for this❤️
YarnHub is amazing
Yarnhub are legend, and so is that rhyming :)
A true Knight Rider. And a truly courageous man. My compliments to you guy. Your indeed one-of-a-kind.
I am from Denmark 🇩🇰 and this is bloody awesome 😎
He's the coolest food delivery guy😂
Btw i ❤ u Yarnhub
Imagine this guy being your pizza delivery guy
Initial D: Live Action
Takumi is cool to he delivers tofu
@@pepsi6508 Initial D: Yagoslavia Civil War Edition
You should've added No homo on the end
Gotta love the A-Team reference
This man spreads a good message.
You do not have to be considered a hero to do good things
But doing good things makes you a considerable hero
It’s the day to day stud that counts. Thanks Yarnhub & Helge Meyer
A Team and Night Rider the crossover I never knew I wanted.Also their should be a documentary and a Hollywood movie about this guy.What he did was incredibly brave and he probably saved alot of lives just by delivering those much needed basic supplies.😀
This is the real shadowy flight into the dangerous world, of a man, who does not exist.
The REAL Knight Rider!
Not even Michael Knight could compete with this guy. He was on a completely different level!
-helge meyer : looks like rorke from cod ghost
-b.a. barracus helping to modify the car
yup this is epic
How in the hell has this not been optioned for a movie??? Absolutely amazing!
I think the fact that he gets changed into civilian clothing to not score the children is so considerate this man is truly awesome
This story feels like it’s been pulled straight out of Hollywood.
Yeah I agree
I guess it's Hollywood who will take the story
I would not rely on Hollywoke to make a good movie out of this. They'd ruin it.
Nah.
Honestly amazing that Yarnhub does this. Much more profit in doing well-know topics that are sure to get views, yet they value history and telling some great stories rarely heard. It’s absolutely incredible.
I don't know, god's rambo and his ghost camaro is sure to get some clicks!
God truly empowered this man! Your animations are great, loved the A-Team helping him build the car, thanks for telling his story and for not leaving God out !
Loving the A-team reference :D
As soon as I saw Nitrous oxide I knew that guy was epic
Aha more pop culture references in a another great historical animation
Mr.T or maybe his character in the A-team B.A Baracus
More than likely his Character as B.A. was the teams mechanic.
Michael G Yea seems like it
A TEAM THEME INTENSIFIES.
The best part is that he still owns the car.
What the heck? Why have I never heard of this before. They should make a movie about this guy. Awesome channel 👏
That is some fast & Furious shit right there, and I tell you this 7 minute documentary is better than 20 hours of all fast and furious combined
Better story and much more badass than all the Fast & Furious movies combined.
this man had a mad max camaro as powerful as a countach,unarmed,carrying goods to children and even had a time to spend with family in a warzone...this guy is awesome,like wow,i dont have words to say how much i respect this guy.......wow
I saw the Ghost Camaro today and took photos ... it is 15 km away from where I live and the book was on top xD A true hell machine
Okay i've never heard of this before, very cool and wholesome story!
Also this video animation is reaaallllyyy goood ♡
Wow the synth/retrowave is a nice fit for this vid! The 1980s and 1990s was a really great decade!
Outrun mixtape lmao
This needs a full feature film full stop
Ahh yes, the gest car TV show, B.A., a version the A-Team theme, a cool car, a rubber ducky, and God. All you need.
This story is a jewel! I don't think most of us had an inkling this man existed.👍
Seeings as we're currently talking about the former Yugoslavia, I'd like to request a video on Nordbat 2. It was the nordic UN peacekeeping battalion deployed to the mission in 1993-1994 and was made up by primarly swedes, but also included a norwergian field hospital and a danish tank company. The battalion gained a wellearned reputation of often bending and breaking the rules of engagment, saving the lives of countless civilians for doing so. The surronding factions also quickly found out that Nordbat 2 was not to be messed with, as any attacks would see instant response.
Sorry about the rambling, but while it's not a danish Knight Rider drifting around a warzone, it's truly an amazing sory and I'd love to see you cover it.
The northlands breed brave and strong people that understand battle. Tell them it needs doing but it is impossible they will find a way by axe by bullet by skis by the courage in their hearts.
Thanks for the info. I'd never heard of NordBat 2 before. Will look into their details. The Scandis have always been tough as nails.
@Yarnhub ...HELLO!!!! ANYBODY LISTENING?!⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️
I'd also love to see that. They sound like some fine men.
This was a great story about a man who put himself in harm's way for the well-being of others. Well done Yarnhub, well done.
I love how the sence of the car being modified is an A-Team reference.
"Зе топ секрет радар"
Right of the bed I'm gonna say it's going to be good
This man is a legend in our camaro groups.
There have been tales of ghost cars throughout history.. When they are needed.... These heroes will rise again..
The most recent I've heard of, is AGAIN a ghost Camaro that hunts poachers in Africa. Which, kind of makes me wonder if this guy is really retired or not.....

I pity the fools who couldn’t see the camero on radar
Got that reference!
Not a hero perhaps, but a good man. Precious few of those. I would pay all the moneys to get a film of this!
Also, precious few videos of this quality! Seriously, never did I see so many 80s refs in a single educational film! You just got a sub!
If this guy doesn't qualify as hero material then we might as well strike the word from dictionaries from now on.
Thank U Yarnhub 4 these wonderful stories... U guys r awesome...👏👏👏👍👍👍
I'm proud to be danish.
I really like your channel, it has those stories and heroes you never knew, but really should know. Thank you!
I januar 2022 WE SIGN A film KONTRAKT With a US Film Advokat from Beverly Hills.
Why isn't there a movie about this?!
It's word for word Hollywood culture!
Yarnhub, your videos just get better and better. The 3D details, the story, everything checks out wonderfully. Even the physics of the car's driving match up rather well, which no one can seem to do. I very much approve of the music choice too.
This is a highly appreciated gift for these times, where we look upon an ever more chaotic political situation, waiting for a beacon of savior. Now, whether said beacon will be the headlights of a souped-up sports car taken straight out of Mad Max and handed over to the people who created KITT, is still up for debate.
It's too good for Hollywood; they'd ruin it.
Nice B.A Baracus from the A-Team reference back there. "I pity a fool who dislikes this video!"
No ads...that's the best part

This is an Awesome animation. Thanks for the history you provide us YarnHub.
I’m an avid historian and I never knew about this! What an incredible story! It’s awesome hearing how my country helped out by selling hun the car and upgrading it. That man Helga was true hero.
Loved how you had an "A-Team" vibe going on there.. and even threw in a Mr. T cameo!! These animations are so professional!
This is the most Danish American thing I've ever seen.
Indeed 👍
When you upgrade a mad car but a duck on griller it makes kinda cuted and funny!😂
Thanks for telling the truly great stories that would otherwise go unheard! This is quickly becoming my favourite channel.
I love how he got two members of The A Team - with Mr T - to help.
This is why i love this channel, history no matter how big or small, how popular or nich gets to have new life. Keep it up folks your doing great!
This story is amazing! I can't get over how many insane stories get swept under the rugs. Furthermore, you do all your stories justice with you graphics, and story telling. (Both of which were great in this episode)
Keep it up, you're awesome!
Your Canadian fan,
Moose
That was beautiful. A true example and inspiration for all of us.
I want to shake the hand of that man ! a real life 80s tv show hero!!. Good bless him
When the victim clicks one day shipping
This story should become a movie 🎥
Him pulling out the knight rider tape and the A-team music and Mr T was perfect 😭
