    I think the main reason for the rebar being so small is that it would have taken a LOT of steel resources up. the Kriegsmarine and Wehrmacht needed all the steel they could get for tanks, ships and vehicles. That is my theory anyway. This place is absolutely AMAZING! Thanks HH and EE for another brilliant video.

    This was amazing! The original German writing on the walls were very special. This bunker was massive! I know it took a lot of explosives to do that much damage because of the thickness of the walls. It did look like a mountain that had been blown up. Thank you HH and EE for taking me along on this wonderful adventure. Take care and stay safe. 💖💯

    I wonder why the Russians felt the need to destroy these bunkers instead of just stripping them out and let them stay? What a waste of pounds of explosives. Now there is a mess in the forest instead of an empty structure. I can't imagine that they thought someone would use them in a military environment ever again. This is another great site you have shown us! Thanks to you and EE for the great tour!! Stay safe and stay well!

    • @WW2HistoryHunter

    Another great road video HH. They built the high bunker the same way as Wolf's layer. Not a lot of rebar, but vertical and horizontal 8mm mesh, 300mm squares. Plus, as you found pretensioned mesh bundles. It actually made the building tougher. Great video with good information as always. Stay safe and well out there and regards to the family.

    I was watching a WW2 film about the British attacking the Germans in the desert in North Afrika. There is a scene with a sapper removing mines and he can be seen disarming 'S' mines removing the detonators so the commandos could attack German bases. The work involved to produce this much conrete cannot be imagined. In todays world it is so easy with all the machines we have, but in 1939 they had very few machines just MANUAL LABOUR - incredible. If you metal detect that there might be remains of a MASSIVE Tallboy or blockbuster bomb buried there.

  • @northernskys
    @northernskys Před 7 měsíci +3

    What an amazing place! And to see, still there, on that (thankfully) untouched piece of internal wall, that German writing, still doing it's job, after such a long time, and after so much damage, both original, and modern. That, that was truly amazing. It is hard to imagine the ridiculous amount of work that went into building that incredible bunker. You can see, just from the parts still standing, how immensely thick the concrete walls were. And that roof! To think how much concrete and steel went into building that roof is just mind numbing. It's possible those sunken barracks were original, built low into the ground to reduce the shadow outline, that aerial photography would normally reveal, and the Soviets made use of them after the war. Certainly can't see a reason for them, to build them into the ground, when it's easier to build above ground. It is a pity, but probably for the best, that the deep bunker is sealed. By now it's probably flooded by ground water anyway, but who knows what secrets might still be lying down there. Perhaps one day, someone will organise an expedition into the unknown. Thank you for sharing this amazing place with us! Cheers to you both!

    • @WW2HistoryHunter

    How exciting to be exploring a location then come up on something unexpected like the underground barracks. When you found the pottery,gas mask ring and other items I was thinking there may be a trash dump on the property containing who knows what. Sad to see these huge structures destroyed. It would have been fantastic to see them still standing and exploring the insides of them. Happy to see the German writing on the wall has survived for people to see. This time in history is being forgotten, which it shouldn’t. What happened during this time period needs to be told and so happy you’re helping to preserve some of that history. Another great adventure and location.

The Eastern Front Road Trip was a great success. Good job HH and EE. The bunker looked very sturdily built. I bet Donitz felt very safe in that bunker. Was something to see the original German writing on the wall. Wish it could be preserved. A shame the bunker was desroyed. The Tiefer Bunker would have been so interesting to see inside. Underground soldiers barracks was surprising. I would imagine that it was very well appointed in its prime and offered many creature comforts for the soldiers. Thank you so very much for doing all the research and planning in order to bring us extemely interesting WW2 history HH. Be safe and keep smiling. ❤

    Those rebars are tiny compared to i.e. that u-boat pen that Allied couldn't destroy. But propably these bunkers were built much earlier and there wasn't so threat from allied air bombing.
    And the fact that it never was designed to withstand explotion and shockvawe from inside and not outside hits witch were mostly coming from air.

    Maybe research can be done on rebar , maybe steel needed to be used in other industries and the thickness was reduced? If it still did as good a job when it was thiner. Such a thing would be typical of the clever Albert speer where he was skilled in getting the best performance from German industry.
