- Tanks! What a terrible and frightening sight they must have been for the Germans, the first time they had appeared on the battlefield at the Somme in 1916. The tanks were the product of many different ideas and prototypes, that all sought to overcome the perils of the modern battlefield - the machine gun, the bombed out ground and the barbed wire. The British Mark I tank would crush those obstacles through its sheer weight and begin a new age of mechanized warfare!

Duct tape was originally developed to seal ammunition boxes. Soldiers started calling it "duck tape" because water flows off of it like it flows off the back of a duck.

Over here in the UK we generally just call it "Gaffer tape," because it's the boss of all tapes. Most tapes have three, maybe four things they are good for.

My favorite example of modern technology from older wars is this: We have the Crusades (specifically the Knights Templar) to thank for the concept of an ATM/modern banking system. A pilgrim could leave money in a Paris temple, receive a paper note, not get robbed by Turks on the way, and then receive a similar amount from the paper upon arrival in Jerusalem or Antioch. Indy and Joakim, what do you think? Also, love the videos, and Sabaton, please come back to Cleveland soon!
Talk about THAT banking & small hats will ban you😬
I just checked if the super glue thing in Vietnam was true and it was. It was discovered by Harry Coover back in 1942. Though it was discovered in the 40s, it was never used in WWII. But it was used in the Vietnam War to close a wound so the soldiers could receive stitches at the hospital
I work in EMS and drop people off in hospital emergency departments all the time and I can tell super glue is still used in medicine, though the modern stuff is a different formula from what is available at hardware stores.
I've heard about tape that was used during the Vietnamn war to emergency repair bullet holes in helicopter blades which later got comercial use.
@@Rainessss that is known these days as "speed tape" and is frequently used for quick, non-critical commercial airliner repairs at airports. It looks like regular duct tape and there are a lot of pictures/memes online of people freaking out about seeing their flight "held together by duct tape lol" but these concerns are unfounded. Speed tape is not duct tape, it is duct tape's meaner, stronger older cousin. Comparing speed tape to duct tape is like comparing duct tape to the adhesive of a post-it note.
As a modeler/miniature builder, I can attest to super glue's wound sealing properties. At this point, I think my hands are permanently infused with cyanoacrylate.

From a lunch box to the legends like Tiger, Sherman and T-34 in just a few decades
Then to machines that can run fast as modern trucks, have enough armour to make an Armoured Cruiser captain envious, and have enough firepower put an entire artillery battery from the early 19th century to shame.
@yeoldebiggetee it was tho. In fact it was objectively better than the T-34 and probably tiger as well in being an actual tank for tank . And btw comparing a sherman and a tiger is like comparing a Panzer IV and an IS-2, ones a medium and ones a heavy tank. Of course one is gonna have the upper hand in a (very rarely seen) 1v1.
The sherman was one of the best tanks of the war
@yeoldebiggetee well then try to read. that isn't what i meant and it's standing right there. The sherman was better than the tiger *as an actaul tank* in actual tank usage and implementation in an army. What i stated later about comparrisons was specifically about people comparring the two in a 1v1 situation and the saying the sherman was shit because of it's nature as a medium facing a heavy and not it actually being shit.
@yeoldebiggetee and you just invalidated you point because that transcript is clearly not talking about the tiger 1 but the tiger 2. It states that the frontal protection is ~170mm while the tiger 1s frontal plate is actually ~100mm which was routinely penetrated by allied rounds. The tiger 2 had extreme armor and gun but nothing else.
When talking about the tiger 1 it had about 12mm more frontal armor thatn the sherman which isn't a lot. And once again the tiger is a heavy tank and the sherman a medium. Why are we even comparing armor values or gun values? This is the exact point i made earlier. You're comparing the two as if they were made for the same purpose
And the track width is a stupid point as well. Every medium tank of that time had relatively narrow tracks. The sherman wasn't an exeption.
A much better comparisson is between the sherman and Panzer IV. Two contemporary tanks made for pretty much the same purpose with pretty much the same statistics and the sherman slighty leading in most of them.
The tommy cooker argument is also just a massive myth since the sherman was no more prone to fires as any other tank. In fact later in the war it was exeptionally fire resistant with the brand new introduction of wet stowage.
Also if the sherman was so shit, why is it in the top 3 of the most survivable tanks of the war?
@yeoldebiggetee dude the tiger was much more expensive than the Sherman and the Sherman with the 76mm gun could pen it. That makes it a bit redundant since it was so expensive to build. The Sherman was reliable, had good optics and a stabilizer, while the German mediums had probably better optics, weren't as reliable and didn't have stabilizers. Since the German mediums were very weakly armoured they were at a disadvantage to the Shermans at infantry support roles. But the mark 4s did have way better guns compared to the 75mm armed Shermans which gave them higher range.
A wheellock, developed by Leonardo da Vinci, is a friction-wheel mechanism to cause a spark for firing a firearm. It was the next major development in firearms technology after the matchlock and the first self-igniting firearm.
A modern application of the wheellock mechanism is the operation of a Zippo Lighter, where a toothed steel wheel is spun in contact with a piece of sparking material to ignite the liquid or gaseous fuel.

Btw, I've also heard something with superglue invented in war as medical item
I hear that is invented to really glue things, but the American Army in Vietnan used it to "close" small cuts and sometimes, until medium cuts, as a fast and efective sucture.
Superglue usually is toxic, but I think that is better a little intoxication then die by hemorragy.

wikipedia about cyanocrylate glue (super glue) :
Cyanoacrylate glue was in veterinary use for mending bone, hide, and tortoise shell by the early 1970s or before. Harry Coover said in 1966 that a cyanoacrylate spray was used in the Vietnam War to reduce bleeding in wounded soldiers until they could be taken to a hospital.[14] n-Butyl cyanoacrylate has been used medically since the 1970s. In the US, due to its potential to irritate the skin, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) did not approve its use as a medical adhesive until 1998 with Dermabond (2-octyl cyanoacrylate).[15] Studies confirm that cyanoacrylate can be safer and more functional for wound closure than traditional suturing (stitches).[16] The adhesive is superior in time required to close wounds, incidence of infection (suture canals through the skin's epidermal, dermal, and subcutaneous fat layers introduce additional routes of contamination),[16] and finally cosmetic appearance.[17][18]
Some rock climbers use cyanoacrylate to repair damage to the skin on their fingertips.[19][20] Similarly, stringed-instrument players can form protective finger caps (in addition to calluses) with cyanoacrylates. While the glue is not very toxic and wears off quickly with shed skin, applying large quantities of glue and its fumes directly to the skin can cause chemical burns.[21]
While standard "superglue" is 100% ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate, many custom formulations (e.g., 91% ECA, 9% poly(methyl methacrylate),
I know from person experience there is surgical glue that's use to seal small wounds. I suspect the super glue used in Vietnam was one of those stories that arose out of a few medics in a something is better than nothing situation or someone misidentified what they were using.
I accidentally managed to get some superglue in my month. It took days before it was all gone. That stuff really stick. At the time I worked at a place where a coworker did this deliberately. He used it to fasten a tooth from time to time. Wierd...
When I was a corpsman back in the Vietnam era US military, we referred to the substance as collodion (phonetic spelling) which smells a lot like super glue and was used to close wounds when and where suturing was not available. As an aside honey was also used in similar situations and had the additional benefit of having antimicrobial factors as well. I believe honey was used by early Egyptian and other cultures of that era for the treatment of battle wounds.
Κολλώδες?
from what i remember a mixture of honey and other things, was used at the time of the egyptians as a light collant, might be mistakening ^^;
I've used both collodion and superglue on wounds.
A bit late to the party, but I just wanted to add that honey is still used today is some hospitals to treat burns

shit i wont say no to tiger as a daily to and from work
*cough cough* tractors and combine harvesters *cough*
Some people already do that
They did that with T-34s
post WW2 you had Sherman or T-34 or even Pz IV being rebuilt as tractors or primemovers. even some Cold War era tanks have been recycled that way (Russia has T-55 and T-64 converted for firefighting). i doubt you'd ever seen an Abrams Chassis or Leopard 2 chassis running as tractor in the future, but anything's possible
To go from those lumbering contraptions to the ghost division just shows that we're better at upgrading killing machines than inventing and developing anything that helps mankind!
Awesome video as always!
Kevlar has an interesting story although originally invented for tires, it was discovered to be bullet resistant and the military adapted it
Being the first song I listened to when the album released proper. I think hearing the shout “STANDING IN THE LINE OF FIRE” Is something I’ll never forget as I thought “Sabaton is baaack everyone” (obviously I’d seen Fields of Verdun, The Red Baron and Great war beforehand but still)
"Remember Comrades, we are tanks!"
"If they take out our treads, we are artillery!"
"If they take out our main gun, we are pillbox!"
"If they take out our machine gun, we are bunker!"
"If they take out our armor, we are heroes!"
Where's that from?
the use of comrade here makes me think of ww2, because if you've seen the ww1 russian equivalent of a tank this would most certainly not apply

Yesterday I gave a presentation about tanks in the first world war in my class, during my preparation I hoped for this video to use it as source, but unfortunately it's to late now :(
I read somewhere, that very first primitive mechanical lighters existed as early as Renaissance and were used to ignite cords of matchlock firearms. Consecutively, they gave way to wheellock firearms, who in a turn of fate, inspired the creation of first modern lighters in XIX century.
Indy: Morphine is awesome!

I didn't thought about this, but I find it funny that the first song on the new album is about tanks.
Thanks again guys for this release!🖤 Tanks rule!

If we talk about the familiar things today that were invented thanks to the war.
The technology used in modern microwave ovens was developed during World War II. This happened when the American and British military created the first magnetron, based on technologies used in radio broadcasts and radar detection. The magnetron emitted much smaller radio waves called microwaves, was compact enough and powerful enough to be used on board aircraft. Its amazing properties helped to accurately detect enemy cities and bomb them. The very ability of microwaves to heat food was discovered quite by accident in 1945 by Percy Spencer, who at that time worked at Raytheon Company. He made his discovery at work when he saw how the chocolate that was in his pocket melted under the influence of microwaves. The first microwave oven for commercial sale was launched in 1954.

@@alexandrah9824 3 times my name, and an enthusiastic "Hello dear Michael"... haven't seen that before in a comment before.
Hope you're okay that I switched back into English. I feel uncomfortable to speak German in a space where the most speak English.
I believe we wouldn’t have things like computers, smartphones and the internet without the Cold War. Or at least not so highly developed
Indy: "Okay... okay, okay, but enough about tanks"
Joakim: It's treason, then.

I have some obscure examples regarding the final discussion on military technological advances. Some time ago I did a little research on my country's famous inventors, so here's some examples of military technology from Spain.
- The Peral Submarine (1888): it was the first modern submarine. It was designed for coast defense as a torpedo boat.
- The Autogiro (1917): the precursor of the helicopter. It could take off and land on shorter runways (and in later stages it could take off almost as an helicopter). It was used during the Spanish-Moroccan war and the Spanish Civil War for several purposes, including medical transport.
- Epidural Anaesthesia (1921): it was invented by military surgeon Dr.Fidel Pagès.
- Field hospitals and casevac. The first field hospital was used by the Spanish in the Battle of Toro (1476). In the 1920s forward medical treatment and casevac were greatly perfected during the Spanish-Moroccan War (1920-1926) by military doctor Dr.Gomez Ulla, who was also present in WWI and in WWII.
- A prototype of the jet engine. The "Mototurbocompresor de Reacción Continua" (continuous reaction motor-turbocompressor) was invented by engineer and aviator Virgilio Leret. After he was killed by the fascists, his wife brought the blueprints to the British government.
- The portable X-Ray machine (1909), which is mentioned in the video, was invented by Spanish engineer Mónico Sánchez.
- The Orr-Bastos-Trueta method for bone fracture treatment, (1934). This method was initially used in a civilian setting, mostly for motor accidents. But this method saw its full potential two years later during the Spanish Civil War, when it was used in war casualties with a great effect in reducing gangrene.
Wheelbarrows with Machine Guns new band name I call it
Sabaton - The last band that actually makes music *genuinely valuable.*
Tanks for the episode guys. Stay Awesome.
"enough about tanks" those words are blasphemy.
Do not blaspheme!
Do not blaspheme!
Do not blaspheme! ;)
I love history and i enjoy how sabaton brings history back to life and they can make you feel it sabaton is one of my top favorite band and nice job indy
Thanks!
I'm not sure about superglue being invented as a field wound sealant, but I can attest to its effectiveness at sealing wounds when in the field.
Joakim: "I wanna talk about tanks!"
Me *I wanna marry this man* 😭
Like Indy says: ,, The Panzer !!! More than anything else it is the symbol of 2000 century Warfare. Lovely greetings Alex 🤘🏻🍻😎
@ Sabaton History Channel
Dankeschön für das ❤️Liebe grüße Alex 🤘🏻🍻😎keep on that great work
One day our carrier ships will be flying and take air warfare to a whole another level I've came up with concepts of this 20 years ago as a teen with all types of drawings of different types of ships and aircrafts including space versions of these
Drop ships-star ship troopers-the book of course.
Diesel-electric hybrid engines were used to power submarines from the Great War until the adoption of nuclear subs. When surfaced, the subs ran the diesel engine for main propulsion, but also to charge the batteries, which ran the engines while aubmerged, electronics, and life support systems. The technology has only recently matured enough for widespread consumer use in automobiles. Also, lasers were initially reserved for scientific and military uses, but now there is widespread industrial and consumer usage.
War accelerates technological progress in its own way.
@@SabatonHistory Joachim tells a big truth when he sings the first two stanzas of the ballad of the bull.
Technology to come out of the military: Better batteries, better heat shielding, cloaking technology, anti-gravity (if it's possible, tanks and naval jets will be the first machines to use it)
Loved the video guys Indy Joakim it was a very awesome video learning bout the birth of tanks
Im a history major mostly military history
Thanks a lot Timo!
The use of ABS brakes in cars today come from the F86 Sabre, where it was needed to shorten the landing distance.
I dunno if this is interesting but when napoleon occupied hamburg they invented the „franzbrötchen“ the french roll which is essentially a cinnamon roll
margarine also invented during nepoleon III
Je ne peux pas croire que ce ne soit pas du beurre!
This is one of my favorite songs of The Great War. At first, I thought it'll be fast as Ghost Division, but knowing how the first tanks were slow, the slow heavy (a little industrial) trudge of the song matches it. An avatar of war given form in plates of steel and rivets, engines powering them, treads to give them mobility and cannons or machine guns providing offensive firepower.
The modern ambulance was basically developed in WWI by sheer necessity of transporting wounded from front line aid stations to more comprehensive care behind the lines.
The need was so great, many Parisian taxi drivers were transporting wounded.
The name's etymology is rather straightforward, from the verb "to perambulate".
little correction: we don't use superglue for model planes, we use plastic cement nowadays. doesn't stick to your fingers and doesn't smell as bad.
