The REAL Reason Why German Bombs Whistled During WW2!

- You may have noticed in movies and tv shows that when a bomb falls through the sky, it makes a whistling sound. This has to do with the fighter planes and bomber planes of world war 2. During the second world war, German air force equipped their bombs with special whistles to demoralize their enemy and strike fear into the hearts of the people on the ground. The strange sound of the whistle can also be attributed to the Doppler effect. In addition to the whistling bombs, Germans also had a special equipment called Jericho’s trumpet installed above the landing gear of their Junkers Ju 87 bomber planes (also called Stuka dive bombers).

Germans:lets put a scary af sound on our bombs
Germans days later:nvm it adds drag
Every video about bombs whistling is using sound of a bomb that is moving away from listener. Because of Doppler effect pitch is getting lower only for person in a plane. People on the ground were hearing increasing pitch, but no one in any video on youtube made an effort to give us an idea how that sounded.
Surprisingly the sound of a bomb is actually inaccurate in most cases. The real sound of a bomb is more like it getting louder the quicker it gets instead of lower / more quiet.
i was thinking something along those lines, if whoever is dropping the bomb here’s that, then shouldn’t the people on the ground here the opposite? God knows
I just heard this sound coming from outside and was shook. It must've been a weird siren or something.
It could have been a passenger plane that was throttling up its engines.
Firework
Nice video! That was history and physics rolled into one! Keep it up 👍
Three things. One nice video. Two the stuka dive bombers. Not ju it's J U Same with the M E 109 , it's very often pronounced me 109. I've noticed that more and more videos have the same problem. You didn't explain that a falling bomb , unless it has a device for producing noise, actually doesn't make any noise.
Some bombs had whistles that increase the noise, but all bombs make a whistling sound due to some scientific thing
Where's the three?
Using weapons and violence does not resolves conflicts says the colonizers right?
Fascinating video
The bombs made whistling sounds due to the shape of the bombs and their stabilizers, now the shape of the bombs has changed and they do not make whistling sounds because this reduces their effectiveness in warning targets of their approach
Good video
I even heard that in one of teapot game's WW2 game
Luftwaffe ends with an e but no e was spoken. 😮
Бомбы издавали свистящие звуки из-за формы бомб и их стабилизаторов, сейчас форма бомб изменилась и они не издают свистящие звуки потому что это уменьшает их эффективность предупреждая цели о их приближении
I thought it was something else.
Me too, thought it was because they didn't know the lyrics....
Just imagine if they used Aztec death whistles instead >:D
REEEEEEEEEEEE
I think if I watch this video to the end, I may get cancer.
1. "Why Bombs Make a Whistling Sound When They Fall Through the Air" and then shows Ju 87 "Stuka" dive bombers, which have a siren on their landing gear that makes them howl...
[Edit]: He later talks about the Jericho Trumpets, so this point is out.
2. Then talks about the german bombing campains against England and France and shows a map on which is Vichy-France, which was created AFTER the successful conquest of France (It's not a big deal but a false detail)
3. Then shows a Aircraft that is about to dive bomb some target, with the ensigns of the Luftwaffe (the Balkenkreuz) on its wings and tail, but the type of aircraft is a american design, used by the US, UK, USSR and the Free French Forces (P-39 or P-63, they look the same)

Next time dont try to strike with homemade rockets a mfing military power backed by more military powers
I hate how you made a great informative video then, annoyingly put the high pitch whistling noises in right where you are talking and made them louder then your voice. Like how about just put them in for a second, when your not talking. As a teacher my entire class full of kids literally said they would rather take turns reading out loud then have to listen to this instead. Honestly just letting you know some of these videos are so awesome and some of them are literally just plain annoying because of stuff like this. You should try watching your own videos.
Oh my god thank you for finally saying something you think they would have some kind of quality control. Some of these videos I wanna watch so bad but it’s like they let a 3rd grader make the edit. 😂
Facts this is so annoying why would someone put the high pitch whistling sound over the whole video. They need to get an editor that’s left elementary school 😂😂😂
Dude this freaking sucks, it’s a shame, they need quality control.
Subtitles brother, subtitles
