- It's 1967, a Russian cosmonaut floats in space, orbiting the Earth. He's gripped by the belief that he won't return home. On the other end of the line is Alexei Kosygin, a prominent Soviet Union figure, shedding tears alongside the cosmonaut, convinced of the imminent tragedy. Hosted by Mike Droberg. Forgotten History is a 10th Legion Pictures Production.

If your enemy does not have stories of heroes that can move and inspire you, than you have either found an inhuman enemy or become one
I really like that. Is that an etherman original?
@kevinfoley8105 I wish it was my idea. I just paraphrased something an old Marine used to say to me. His version was a bit more colorful and less youtube friendly.
Sounds like Stan Lee.
I'd say if you can't empathize with anyone or any part of your enemies either they are inhuman or you are.

A man brave enough to pull the lion's tail. May he rest in peace.
Great video! I remember this happening. As usual, I thought I had the WHOLE story. Thanks for such detailed research!
Thanks again!
You guys are wonderful for how carefully you put this info together, and try to avoid narratives. Thank you kindly!
Thanks for watching!
Great video. I had no knowledge of this incident. Thank you
Thanks for watching
I've heard this story multiple times and it never gets old.
Imagine that blood rushing endorphin experience he himself experienced....😮. Good to see you again, Mike!!! Great work, friend!!!!
I really enjoyed his take on Solar Warden. His biblical commentary is great as well.
We are all men ,these are not my enemies. Those Russian cosmonauts were men's men. I feel weak and puny compared to men like them. Thank you for telling us the truth about this I have never heard all this story
The animation at 0:43 was actually produced to demonstrate to the USAF what war in Earth orbit might look like. I think few people know how much effort (and money) went into that thinking.
Kemerovo requested that his body on re entry be displayed to the Russian Heirarchy and they all filed passed. Disturbing photo of Kemerovo body. 😢
Laika's story is sad enough, but Komarov talking to his wife as he's about to plunge to earth from space tops it off.
Fascinating...good stuff...
Glad you enjoyed it
To me this left off one of the most Poignant parts, Komarov knew he was most likely going to die on the Soyuz so he set the conditions that if he did die the Soviet Leadership that sent him up there would be forced to look at his ruined body during an open casket viewing. To see that their Grand Vision was paid for in blood. I’d like to believe Komarov and Gagarin are reunited together again.
This documentary video is priceless!!!
According to General Kamanin 's diary, he arrived at the crash scene an hour after impact & Komarov's remains were an irregular lump 30 cm (12") in diameter & 80 cm (31") in length. His capsule impacted at 480 km/hr or about 440 feet per second.
the scary part is there willingness to sacrifice a life to save face the crazy thing is the knowledge and training wasted the sad thing is nothing has changed .
Fantastic work! I look forward to these videos as much as my wire updates.
Great to hear!
THIS is what comes- of "the good of the whole is more important than the good of the individual." The end does not always justify the means😢
New favourite YT Channel!
Good morning and thank you for another great video
Thank you kindly
Semper Fidelis!
Apparently reveille was late this morning. Usually they post at 5:30. 😉
Another phenomenal video - great job!
Thanks again!
I am glad to hear that Forgotten History calls the U.S. a Constitutional Republic. I'm ticked when politicians say we are a Democracy. Also, thank you for exposing the lies of the Soviet Union.
a good way to learn or refresh your memory of history being lost or changed ! I share with all my family members especially the young ones so they can learn the truth.
Hopefully, this channel only creates truthful content.
"Я не хочу умирать, ты должен что-то сделать"
Whit all due respect greetings from San Diego CA, a million thanks for your great work SIR, sincerely José Silva.
Nice video, something tells me you'll start to see many more views and thumbs up with great content like this. Well done sir. Edit lol, looks like your channel is doing well, this is new video hence the lack views.
Much appreciated!
Thank you
Excellent work as always, keep up the good work...👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
I'm pretty confident after my 2 tours in Iraq as a Marine grunt in 2003 and back again in 2004 that the number 1 cause of death for ground combat units is their own generals.
found your page last week and I can’t stop watching your vids thanks for all the great content your pumping out
Awesome! Thank you!
A great presentation!
Glad you liked it!
Gegarin looked like a Russian version of Neil Armstrong. Perhaps they were designed in the same spacelab.
Gagarin was an unbelievable badass. All those guys were.
Great video thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
As an Ohioan I grew up learning about Neil Armstrong and John Glenn, Buzz Aldrin from New Jersey is cool as well. The cosmonauts are just as amazing as our astronauts. One cosmonaut I know somewhat of is the Polish one Miroslaw Hermaszewski who had a fascinating life. He barely survived the Volhynian Genocide as a baby when the UPA attacked his village Lipniki, many family members including his father were killed. He sadly died at 81 on December 12th, 2022.
His daughter is likely still alive and although unlikely it's possible his wife is too.
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀
Komarov knew that he would die, why didn't he just risk telling Bresnev?
Because no one challenges the Head of State in communism
@@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL Did you ever watch the movie, "Death of Stalin" ? I imagine something like this to be not far from the truth.
Because they'd have imprisoned his whole family, that's why.
@@t.j.payeur5331 true, but instead he dies like a hero
@@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL
From a person live in a communist country : by reporting so he won't be consider challenge the leader of communist party 2. If anyone get punish if he report it the one who runs the project not the whistle blower , but his career will end also if he does so , as the next guy that take over the project won't trust him anymore.
Never heard of this guy but hey what a title I'll watch it
A very interesting video. On a brave Cosmonuts final fight and tragic death. 💪🏻🙏🏻✨
Old men throwing away the lives of young men, in space like in war.
Damn his parachutes were busted. So he entered the atmosphere. Probably slowed down a little before he slammed into the earth. Didn't have a chance.😮
He was a brave man!
Listen to the 80’s song by Peter Schilling, ‘Major Tom’… and listen to the lyrics. He must have written that song with Vladimir Komarov in mind.
they let you chop tress down for free at the gulag
LOL
This is a tragedy that could have (SHOULD HAVE!) been a voided!
The engineering staff and the test Cosmonauts knew the vehicle had many major flaws and issues with operation and safety.
Two Cosmonauts submitted a report listing about 200 items of concern!
But, likely for only Political reasons, the decision was made to go ahead with the flight.
Reminds me of our own 2 major space flight disasters.
"A listening post near Istanbul Turkey"....That would be that Karamursel Air Base elephant cage the US operated. I had to live on it as a kid in the dorm and attend high school there about 35 miles from Istanbul on the bay of Izmit. My dad was a spook in Istanbul.
I remember that, and the Apollo Fire. The Soviets had the same problem and never said anything. The Soviet Space Program was and is an interesting subject. Considering how few people worked on it compared to the American effort. They did things more by the seat of the pants. We had our issues with Apollo the 1967 fire comes to mind. The Space Shuttle is another. Our program was all out in public and the Soviets well no. They managed to do a lot with very very little in funding and in persons working on the project. When Sergei Korolev died, there effort got stalled, and if you look at how his own Government abused that man, its no surprise this accident would happen. Korolev was the real brains of the effort. As for Gargarin accident, I am wondering down since he was rocking the boat if he was not murdered.?
Good question but I don't think it will ever be answered
@@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL Seeing how the Russians don't mind killing an aircrew who have nothing to do with Wagner- other than just flying a corporate jet. It makes it a reasonable suspicion to read to Gargarin; he is held in high regard by NASA, so much so he took personal Items for safekeeping after the collapse of the USSR. Kept his family afloat during those hard times.
Men of honor
Great presentation!
You have my faithful viewership just so long as you dont smack Colin to the ground again. Lol. The Ol boy still got it though! That was a very entertaining fall he took.
Hope your studio gets tons of business!
LOL. Most days he's smacking me! Thank you!
I did not know that these two cosmonauts both died. Having been brought up to hate the Russians in the 1960s, this was touted as evidence of Russian failure. It wasn't until much later after the fall of the Soviet Union and a brother marrying a Russian that I found out what the United States and the allies had done at the end of WWII to betray their pledge of the Yalta conference ending in the USSR keeping over 10,000 American and allied POWS the USSR had liberated from the Germans. Most likely this was the reason Patton was murdered as he wanted to go to war with the USSR to free the Americans. Hopefully Leonid Brezhnev received more than a drink in his face.
He flew too close to the sun 😢
brezhnev's eyebrows were insane
His last words: " Eeeyaaaaaaagh "!
New guy??? I can dig it
Old guy. Just came out of retirement for a moment!
This story would make an amazing HBO Series
Yes, like Chernobyl
Considering we know NASA was a lie, makes me wonder about this! The truth will never hide.
Most folks are not like you and I. They believe all of the crap that NASA spews out.
I wouldn't go to the grocery store in a Lada Niva much less low Earth orbit in a Soyuz. Those guys weren't cowards. That's for sure.
We defeated the wrong enemy
Probably Cold War either way
Nah they both needed to go
Great video! In my honest opinion, Brezhnev's eyebrows were and will always be the most fantastic Russian eyebrows ever! 😂😶🌫😂
Only rivalled by Edward Tellers briar patch.
Imagine staring at those eyebrows as they get closer and closer and then are pressed directly against your face as Brezhnev gives a powerful mouth kiss.
😂 the absence of eyebrows
I totally agree!
Oh no bueno!!! 😂😂😂Nyet, Nyet!!!@@garrysekelli6776
Kosygin and Prigozhin share fate similarities... Hmm.
Kosygin contacted Komarov in space via videophone? In 1967? Seems very unlikely. Especially in a spacecraft critically low in electrical power.
Well, if his death was imminent regardless, why not?
@@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL ; Because in 1967, the only organisation that had a videophone service was the Bell System in the USA, and that was just a trial system involving a handful of users within Bell Laboratories and a few big business Bell customers. The Bell Picturephone as it was known was way way too expensive to implement to be anything other than an engineer's toy, and users found it offered no real advantage over the standard voice-only phone as it did not give eye-to-eye contact. That was due to its low image resolution and camera-screen offset.
Not until the advent of high performance personal computers and the development of Skype and its competitors about 15 years ago could video calls become a practical reality.
In 1967, the USA had advanced semiconductor manufacturing capability, and could make almost all spacecraft electronics energy efficient solid state. The USSR was in 1967 so far behind in solid state technology they were forced to use vacuum tube technology for almost all spacecraft electronics, and certainly for any video. Vacuum technology is extremely power hungry.
Why would they include videophone hardware in a spacecraft back then, anyway? Unless you think their project managers planned to kill cosmonauts and Kosygin would want to make a call.
To ask such a question, you must be like my young teenage granddaughter, who on being told that I never had a mobile phone when I was 13, simply did not believe me.
In other words Gagarin was clintonized.
My God!
Gave it a thumbs up but it really a thumbs down. I feel bad for the guy. He knew he was going to die.
The arrogance, dismissivness and dispassionate concern for the people of the Soviets Union by its leaders in the 60's thru the 80's is eerily similar to the U.S. leadership and its constituents today.
The United States putting men on the moon was the Soviet Unions greatest achievement.
How so?
I think it means the motivation was to beat the Russians (USSR) - if not for that incentive it wouldn't have been done. (And add to that all the technology that had to be developed or improved to make it happen.) @@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL
A government without accountabiltity can do anything.
This is a lesson and example for mankind: YOU CANNOT ENTER THE HEAVEN BY YOUR OWN WISDOM AND STRENGTH.
Matthew 23:12 (KJV) And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
Cover Czechoslovakian history next
Possibly.
Video phone????
By 1927 AT&T had created its earliest electromechanical television-videophone called the ikonophone
How would the Soviets even know if it was homicide or accident? I mean the engine fails ok, but the drunk ground crew swapped the hydraulic fluid with water for the alcohol. The plane didn’t have proper welds cuz they pocketed the money?
They probably would never know for sure.

Thanks for watching
They had video calls back then in space, but nobody has been back since...😮 INTERESTING😅😂 SPACE NEVER BEEN THERE CUZ YA CANT.
Well, another wrong analysis
@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL prove that any man has gone to space...the ultimate PSYOP...if you believe man has been to space you are not as smart as you think...there's a name for it in the book of Genesis...here's a clue it's a "layar"
Algorithm comment 💜.
The space race (if you call it that) was mostly manufactured by the media instructed by the string pullers. Sputnik was a metallic balloon filled with hydrogen/helium mix with a small transmitter attached. The so called space race was a monumental waste of resources and the lives of many a man that led no where. The vacuum of space and the radiation that the sun puts out is insurmountable barrier to space exploration (This includes unmanned missions as well) On top of that, no communications outside the Earth's atmosphere is possible. There were no space probes or landings on other planets. They use high attitude balloons to simulate satellites. P.S The space shuttle is not a glider (physically impossible for this craft to glide) It was powered by jets.
The space shuttle does enter into glide mode once it reenters earth's atmosphere, and radio signals like solar flares do transmit even in the vacuum of space.
@@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL Radio signals cannot penetrate earth's atmosphere(let alone the 70,000 miles of super ionized particles surrounding the Earth). As for the vacuum of space, think of it as the rapids of a river. Now think of a radio wave as a toy boat trying to cross that river. Not possible. I checked this with a U of M professor of physics. He confirmed what I stated above.
When I asked him if this was so, then how did we communicate with the astronauts on the moon? He spread his arms wide, took a couple of steps back and said " I don't know" He then turned away as a signal that the conversation was over (which it was).
As I said before,the space shuttle does not match the aerodynamics design in order for it to glide. By all rights, it should drop like a rock.
Sputnik didn’t move like a balloon though and sensitive equipment is protected from radiation
@@yoeyyoey8937 I guess they forgot about this "protection" during Chernobyl.
@@Stormbringer2012 they literally have all of that. Nuclear facilities all over the planet have this, which is why it’s not dangerous. Chernobyl had other issues that caused it to melt down, which was not a failure of the shielding.

I don't know what your posts mean....
It means there were 52 comments made ahead of his, and the date he made this comment. @@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL
Another great man lost to a worthless politician…
Great documentary so Interesting I hope we race to mars now against the communists thank you for great content 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
Germans were the good guys in WW2.
Cool story.... Too bad , nothing has ever been to space and never will. Unfortunately , this story, entertaining space travel as fact, hurts your credibility.
His story is not actually history. It’s just the story that he heard from someone else and then re-tells
Where have you been?
It is history
@@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL thinking that everything on TV or found in a book is real and actually happened is a mistake and definitely does not qualify as historical research. Start by questioning EVERYTHING. “History is written by the victors” - Winston Churchill
I only wish you did just a little bit more research and learned how to pronounce Kosygin. Hint: It has nothing to with gin.
