Manfred Von Richthofen, what a pilot.
Sabaton "Attack of the dead men" another crazy story from WW1 ;)
A very respected pilot, even by his enemies.
Stick around in WWI guys, check out 'The Lost Battalion' or '7 Pillars of Wisdom.' I know you have a shit-pile to cover but you really can't go wrong in any of them (or get your heart broken in 'The Final Solution') so great job as always.
The Final Solution is not Heartbreaking lol
@@lovecraft8639
Kamerad is the way you should spell your name there Adolf.
The video is from the movie "The Red Baron", and Mannfred was not the only Ace in his unit, If I remember correctly I think number 2 in the unit had 48 Kills. Both Mannfreds brother and cousin was fighter pilots.
Herman Goering flew a white Fokker DVII in Richtofen's "Circus". He scored 22 kills and later commanded that unit.
you are correct, but Richtofen was the only pilot to land and turn off the engine when whas shot down... and the 80 allies dead, was also a motive to call him a legend, militarly ALL the squadron is remembered, but he was the ace of aces
Yep and it was him trying to save his cousin Wolfram von Richthofen that started him on the path to his death. Wilfred May was firing on Manfred's cousin when the Baron dove down and fired on May's plane to aid his cousin. When May started to run Manfred began to chase. Cpt. "Roy" Brown saw this and dove to aid his friend May. Fired on Richthofen's plane causing him to jink to avoid the attack, but instead of turning to face his new attacker Richthofen instead broke his own rules of air combat and went back to chasing May. This was the last mistake and shortly after he was shot down and killed.
@@xJamesLaughx funny enough, the bullet that killed him was not from a plane, but from the ground and he even managed to land the plane before dying
Craziest thing about it, he wasn't actually killed by one of the pursuing planes. He got to close to the ground and an Aussie machine gun team got him and the planet's engine (was confirmed on a autopsy iirc).
that video suggested in the end, sabaton - price of a mile (subtitles) is pure gold.
its about the battle of Passchendaele, and for me, its one of their best songs
I was just going to suggest that song, it's amazing. Sabaton's songs about the pointless waste of lives in war always strikes me hard. Cliffs of Gallipoli is highly underrated in my opinion.
And esp. with THAT video it is a Masterpiece of Music and Fanart
@@buffsan717 Some people say the song is repetetive but I think that just makes it even better. The battlefield was repetetive as well, just wave after wave sent to die.
No AXIS in WWI, they were called the central powers.
Oh, and do Price of a Mile next please, the video shown in the end screen.
I thought the central powers referred to all the great nations of europe. the germans, austrians and hungarians were the triple alliance. france britain and russia formed the triple entente.
@@AnikaJarlsdottr The Central Powers were Germany, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire. They fought the Entente, which were Serbia, Russia, France, Belium, Japan and the UK, and later the US. Cool name btw, I guess you are from Iceland?
@@tigeriussvarne177 I will defer to your knowledge then, its been a while since I did significant research on WW1.
WW1 pilot's invented air warfare. At the beginning there was only scouts which the pilots only carried handguns, then machineguns were added, then finale the dedicated fighters and bombers. Now for my request for a request you have to do the Wing Hussars the store of the Polish Calvary the went with the Holy Forces to save Vienne from the Ottomans. Great song and video
WHEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED. No but seriously that battle is a large part of European history and also the biggest cavalry charge in history.
Planes also got close enough for pilots to shoot the enemy with the pistol
Fun Fact (copied from Wikipedia).
The title Monty Python's Flying Circus was partly the result of the group's reputation at the BBC. Michael Mills, the BBC's Head of Comedy, wanted their name to include the word "circus" because the BBC referred to the six members wandering around the building as a circus, in particular, "Baron Von Took's Circus", after Barry Took, who had brought them to the BBC.[5] The group added "flying" to make it sound less like an actual circus and more like something from World War I. The group was coming up with their name at a time when the 1966 Royal Guardsmen song Snoopy vs. the Red Baron had been at a peak. Freiherr Manfred von Richthofen, the World War I German flying ace known as The Red Baron, commanded the Jagdgeschwader 1 squadron of planes known as "The Flying Circus."
The words "Monty Python" were added because they claimed it sounded like a really bad theatrical agent, the sort of person who would have brought them together, with John Cleese suggesting "Python" as something slimy and slithery, and Eric Idle suggesting "Monty". They later explained that the name Monty "...made us laugh because Monty to us means Lord Montgomery, our great general of the Second World War"
A lot of the pilots during this time were from the aristocracy of Europe. For this reason, they had great respect for each other as gentlemen and were even related in some way to some on the other side of the lines. The bodies of those shot down were treated respectfully. Though feared, the Red Baron was also highly respected as a gentleman and an aerial ace. For this reason, he was given a funeral with full military honors by the Allies who were his enemies and friends. A wreath was presented at his burial that read “To Our Galant and Worthy Foe.” Thanks for the video guys.
Richtofen was the Ace of Aces and a true knight of the air. his mentor (Boelke) literally wrote the book on air combat and he took every single lesson to heart.
Every soldier fight for their country, and serve their greedy leaders no matter if its Germany or the US. They are just soldiers trying to survice and defend their country. But what people dont ask is why does soldiers to this day fight for greedy leaders and politicans i cant understand. The propaganda that they fight for a country when in realilty you all fight for your leaders. Back in the days atleast the leaders joined the battlefield and did not let millions of people die when they sat safe smoking cigarrs. In the old they did fight for what was right or wrong, today you all just fight for peopel wh owant more power and greed. Thats all there is to it. In your mind you fight for a country for your people, and that is heroism. But in reality you dont.
Great reaction guys!🤘🤘
I'd like to hear you guy's opinion on the song "To Hell and Back" with the official music video. I'm curious what actual veterans think of PTSD and especially the way it was/ is being treated.
Great reaction. The video was from the very good movie Red Baron which was a german movie. I loved the fight scenes in it. BTW, they had parachutes then and the germans used them because they valued their pilots, but the allies didn't because the planes "cost money" (sound familiar?). They had plenty of pilots and they were afraid that their pilots would bail out prematurely. Werner Voss is his buddy in the movie too and he was killed when he took on about 7 british planes for about 15 minutes before getting killed. He had a chance to run too. Back then you could burn to death going down or jump out. At least you weren't in the trenches with poison gas and flamethrowers. WHEW!
And hell yeah we want more
AND HE'S FLYIN HIGHER THR KING OF THE SKY
love this song 🤘
that missile in the background is giving me anxiety
Great reaction! That's exactly Sabaton's concept. They tell a true story and you learn something by listening to great music!🤘 I'd suggest you check out Sabaton's "The final solution" next. There is no official music video for that one, but a fan made video with footage from the movie "Schindler's list". That really gives you the creeps... 😬 The song is awesome, but very sad at the same time.
Only the blimp crews had parachutes as it was thought to incentivize pilots by making it a fight to the death.
The use of blimps was where the term "The balloon has gone up" came to mean the start of war/battle.
Next try a bit of naval war - Wolfpack.
Awesome song and history
6:27 - In WWI it was the Central Powers and the Entente, the Entente was only referred to as the allies after WW2, and even during world war II the allies were more often referred to as the United Nations.
💪😎🤘
Yes!!
One of the wreaths at the Baron's funeral was inscribed " To our Gallant and Worthy Foe."
The memes from this song is awesome ;)......I walked my dog....AND THEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED!
React to cliffs of gallipoli or angels calling. They are both from ww1. You could also react to the sabaton history channel and look for the history behind the songs you have already heard. Good video.
@v3tReacts its not about sides, he was a good Soldier an Honorful Soldier. He fought a War he didnt wanted and died as a Hero and Inspiration for a lot of Pilots in WW2.
agreed 💯
with the blimps; a flare gun worked because they were filled with hydrogen to make them float. We use helium now because it tends to not explode in the presence of a static shock arc.
I knew your reaction will be epic to this, that's why I recomended it. And I know you will rock on Seven Pillars of Wisdom official video. Don't miss Sabaton in the desert
more sabaton please, i recommend the coat of arms official music video, about the Greco-Italian war opposed Italy and Greece from the 28th of October 1940 until the 23rd of April 1941.
Fun fact the The tombstone the French buried him with was engraved with "To Our Gallant and Worthy Foe" and after the first world war his body was returned to Germany and buried in The German version of Arlington cemetery and after the Second World War he was re-buried in his families personal cemetery where he rests to this day
💯🤘
Loved the reaction guys! Think you guys could check out their Sabaton Historyvideos ?
It still blows my mind that Richthofen shot down 80, in what amounts to wood/cloth deathtrap (by today's standards anyway) in an era where the airplane was barely even invented. I mean, heck they had just barely figured out how to make a mg fire without destroying your own propeller, and then here comes this dude out of nowhere that gets like 8x times the kills required to become an ace (by WWII standards at least). Its no wonder the 'Red Baron' is THE legendary fighter ace bar none. Unfortunately most Americans only know the name thanks to a frozen pizza......
20x the number (5 confirmed kills = Ace)
Tho there are some interesting facts to the Baron:
- all 80 kills in which the Baron registered have been confirmed. Their are no “maybe” kills.
- while it is said that Richthofen would never aim for the pilot, this is false. By his own words he always aimed for the pilots during air battles as it was the best way to confirm kills.
- if he or his squadron shot down an allied pilots that survived or took any prisoner after the battle he would actually sit and have dinner with them.
- he collected a trophy from every air victory he had (this included one allied planes front engine part which he hung from the ceiling and used as a type of chandelier)
- Richthofen cousin Wolfram also served with him during WW1 and learned a lot from him. He would later go onto command and help design much of Germany’s aircraft during WW2.
- another “notable” addition to rictophens squadron was a young Hermann Göring.
- it is believed that Canadian pilot Arthur “Roy” Brown was the pilot to finally claim the Red Barons life. However, modern evidence points more in the direction that it was Anti-Air fire that finally claimed the Barons life (a rule in which he broke protecting his cousin - Richthofen rule was to never stay over enemy lines for too long or stick to close to the ground for such reasons)
- During his death, Richthofen managed to keep full control of his plane the entire time, landing it close to the Australian Imperial Force lines.
PS. Also a small note from historians to the Canadians:
Please stop kill stealing all the “notable” German Aces of the World Wars.
Richthofen and Witmann.
Tho I will say hah, you never got the top tank Ace Kurt Knipsel - he was killed with his crew on the eastern front.
@@reecedignan8365 huh I thought ten kills for an ace, thanks for the info
I wouldn't say the frozen pizza is the first thing Americans think of... Snoopy, on the other hand...
I❤️ The Red Baron ✨
Sabaton 🥰
There's a reason they were called 15 minute men. That was the life expectancy as a new pilot.
the most badass move was that the Swadron paintted their planes to signal everyone ..
Im here come and fight me ! im not scared !
Pilots early in WW1 even threw bricks and stones at each other if they had nothing else or their pistols ran out. Curious story - the last "dogfight" of WW2 was between a Storch and a Piper Cub (unarmed observation planes) - pilots using pistols! The Storch landed heavily and surrendered.... "At 90 degrees bank, all the lift slides off the wings!".... Brits called German observation balloons "sausages". They need to carry written permission to carry "Buckingham", phosphorous incendiary bullets, to shoot balloons because, if captured, they could be shot for using "a weapon of torture". Brits also used Triplanes - Sopwiths - before Germany! Check out "Black Flight" Royal Naval Air Service. Richtofen, who was a failed cavalry officer, flew despite a serious head wound - years later, Saburo Sakai, Japanese ace, did the same thing.
he may have been onthe other side but when he died he was basicaly honored even by allies because they respected him and he was the top ace in war
👌🏼
Night Witches Animated video with narration is a perfect video without exception
His squadron, known as the Flying Circus, was legendary because of his leadership. All were celebrated aces and included his younger brother Lothar, his cousin Wolfram(future Luftwaffe Generalfeldmarschall), and Herman Göring(future Reichsmarschall, model train enthusiast and the most fun major war criminal).
"Im not drunk"
"Yet"
I think i just died
Great reaction to a great song! Please react to Sabaton Hearts of Iron. The history behind this song ist crazy.
When von Richthoven died, they buried him the next day, with full honors ( he crashed behind the allied lines ) they even had a cease fire so german pilots could come and pay their respects, thats the impact this man had on all pilots axis or allied.
Anyone else know The Red Baron because of the peanuts song, Snoopy vs The Red Baron, or just me
imagine being a french pilot and seeing the red baron approach
no thanks Id get my ass shot off lmao
Idk if they have a video for this one on their history channel (sabaton history) but they have one for most songs. If they don't look up the red Barron or the flying circus (the name of his squadron). If you didn't notice all the planes he commanded were painted different bright colors which is where they got the name. Great story.
Sabaton History for the Red Baron was actually put out before the song was.
They uploaded the Sabaton History for several of their Great War songs before releasing the Great War album.
There was two German ace fighter of WW1, one was Manfred Albrecht Freiherr von Richthofen AKA red Baron and other was Hermann Goring.
There really isn’t anything that can make it better except the fact that the video excerpt is from the Red Baron movie made back in 2006. Which is a good movie. Oh and Sabaton has history profile so I found out.
Yep hehe Stay Tuned big things coming here at v3tReacts 💯🤘😉🤘💯
Im here buds
What up brother!
@@v3tReacts got the day off finally. Im also off this Thursday so ill be able to join live. Hell yeah
You guys should try smoking snakes
Its about 3 brazilian soldiers that refused to surrender against the nazis and fought until the last bullet
Fought untill the last bullet? Not really. they even fought after that with fixed bayonets
And then charged with bayonets.
8:05 I think that was his brother or something like that because that dude was shown a lot of times before he got down
The blimps were not used for radar in WW1, well, they had balloons where scouts were sitting in, the blimps were used as AA devices, they had steel cables underneath and they should disable the enemy planes when they flew through it. And, I don't know if anybody mentioned yet, you should definitely watch the Sabaton History video about this song, it is so interesting.
oh it is to come no worries on that have a LONG back log lol 🤘🤘🤙🤙
You guy should take a look at warkings
The man became so respected that when he was shot down in enemy territory his enemies buried him with full military honours, something they didnt even do for their own pilots.
What I always dislike is, when allied forces are trash talking the achievements of the axis forces during world war 1 & 2. Might be because I'm a proud German myself, so it's like rubbing sand paper against each other. Can't we all just accept that there was "badassery" on each side? :-)
You should check out the song the art of war
who thought that wire,plywood and canvas could make a plane....
Sabaton "bismark" WW2 battleship
Zeppelins
The battles stopped for one day so both sides could join his funeral
O único piloto que ele foi atrás pra mat4ar foi o ataque aéreo noturno que matou seu amigo, ele tinha um código de ética de não atirar no piloto só no avião e não continuar depois de acertar
you know he would have lived to see the end of the war if he was grounded after that wound he got......
Could you react to Wehrmacht or Wolfpack please
The price of a mile is a nother good song about ww1
Huh? Pretty sure the red baron’s plane is a triplane
Finnish ACE Ilmari (Illu) Juutilainen 92 kills in WWll * Finnish- Russo war *!! !! thats more than Red Baron ..!!
Different context with different planes and different tactics...not even remotely comparable.
The Red Baron was a PIONEER of aviation, flying an almost unflyable triplane.
See Sabaton en livstid i krig Live
My only problem is he flew a tri plane from what all I have read. Otherwise it's fantastic.
This was WW1 so this wasn’t the axis power.
The difference metween ww1 and 2, in ww1 the germans was just the enamy, not nazis
The allies in the lyric is a bit misleading. Both sides in the first world was allied. I perfer calling them the triple entente and the central powers.
Sabaton - 40:1
Nice reaction but please use the official video next time, you missed out on the epic intro!
Ok thanks!
v3tReacts 👍 thank you, still a great video
As always, I enjoyed your reactions. Although I like Sabaton, for me this song isn't anything special & not even close to their best ones.
P.S. Fighting the enemy successfully from/in the air took both talent & courage during WW1. Nowadays one can sit comfortably in a bunker thousands of miles away from the enemy & fly a drone to kill him. Where's the courage in that?
Manfred von Richthofen: 80 kills
Erich Hartmann: 352 kills
No shade towards Manfred, but I find this slightly more impressive.
Three pilots of the JG52 Hartmann, Rall and Barkhorn = 926 confirmed shootdowns
@Patrick Bateman
I think you forgot that Manfred Fought in ww1 were Planes were a new Technology that was in Testing
Hartmann Fought in WW2 were Planes was far better
