This feels like a hack, watching it for free on UA-cam. You release masterpieces so frequently, it is stunning. If you need someone making soundtracks for you, I would love to do so for sure, it would be an honor. Keep up the great work, you guys are absolutely amazing!!!
My father and I was just talking this morning about flying from San Francisco, USA to London. To travel Portsmouth to see HMS Victory and go to Wool, England and visit the Tank Museum, and especially Tiger and WW1 tanks. Due to, I was intrigued about that video you guys did about that British tank crew Frey Bentley, being surrounded by Germans. In conclusion, absolutely brilliant job doing this video and thank you to the tank museum for supporting this video and their endeavour.
Great vid but one small inaccuracy; at abt 8:46 to 8:59, the handgun the german tank commander is shown with is an american m1911, german tank crews carried mp-40s or lugers
The GoPro-style camera view from the barrel of the German soldier's gun was totally unexpected, and absolutely amazing! Also, the amount of detail you folks put into each item, including the viewport reflection in the tank commander's eyes, is stunning! So well done! Oh, and the story was great, too! 😉
I was watching one of your earliest videos about US Navy fighter pilot Jessie Brown the other day. When I compare these two videos the graphics has really come a long way since the founding of your channel. The character modelling and animations, facial features, the character and environment textures. All fantastic, and they keep getting better. Keep it up.👍👍
Brilliant as always. Ive been watching since the beginning when the story of the Brown/Stiegler incident left me in tears. Since then you've taught me a lot of history, but not only history; you've shown that the "enemy", whoever we consider that to be, consists of human beings struggling through the nightmare of war, just like ourselves. You've illuminated moments of incredible courage, terrible violence and destruction, and most importantly, occasions of unexpected mercy, compassion and humanity. In a world darkened by greed, deception, and cowardice, you are a light showing us a higher road. Thank you, everyone at Yarnhub, for teaching us not just history, but also how to be.
@@Yarnhub thanks to you those stories will not be forgotten. All that hard work you have to know all there names to remember them just there achievements and losses. If my great grandad was still alive he would probably would love that struggles of the 8th army are remembered.
@@harryjohnson9215 Has he seen Inglorious Basterds! Surely he'd love teach them Germans to 'fear us' and joining Raine's crew of swastika marking Rommels Soldiers!
@@goblintinkler9927 I'm not sure Unfortunately I never met him but, i have my gradad to tell me about him. Thay did watch a documentary on the war in Italy and he jumped up and said 'that me by the tree we didn't have toilets.' I feel the need to look for his military service records now
An absolutely fantastic animation! The level of detail in the storytelling and animation is truly something to behold, especially the use of that PIAT launcher and the famous "tiger 131", truly brilliant work, Yarnhub!
They even mentioned it as a Mortar firing weapon (and not as a giant spring launcher), and its heat round is quite sufficient to take out a tiger (100mm pen) if it can hit it!
@@msredfox No it had a HEAT warhead that could burn through the front armour of any Axis tank. It had to hit dead on though. It was used as a short range mortar against bunkers later in the war, but against tanks normally a direct fire weapon.
Wow I'm very surprised that this is the same tank appeared in FURY movie... Very beautiful animation,so details, I love it, one of the best historical UA-cam channel of all time
This is not a historical channel. Look at the inside of the Tiger at 9:02. This is some kind of comedy channel. Also, the terrain in this video does not resemble the real place; the actions of the Germans are merely guesswork; and the other Panzers are not represented.
It took me a second glance to understand that the tank getting out of a garage ( at 10:00) is a movie, not an animation. It shows the quality of your work. Another excellent work!
For people who don’t know: Tiger 131 is one of the only tigers captured and put in museums till this day, it was also used in the movie “Fury”, maybe the only real Tiger tank used in movies.
Tiger 131 arguably the world's most famous tank. Good to see her complete story in action. I never knew she got a confirmed kill on a Churchill. I did know she was abandoned due to the shot trap of her barrel (one in a million shot) disabling/jamming the turret ring, you guys animated that well! You can still see that damage to this day.
Been here since the first video about the bf 109 sparing a bomber, seeing you guys evolve and grow is awesome. Your videos are very unique and have clear effort put in. I want this channel to become one of the most subscribed to ever.
Great video Looking into Sgt John Oscroft I'm proud to say that I now live in the town that he lived and worked in. A lot a brave men in this video that we owe so much to.
this is literally. quite literally. the best one you guys have made. the lighting, camera work, and models and textures, *the animation itself* (especially the animation on the face) and post production all just highly complimented eachother unconditionally.
rewatched recently some of the older videos, the animation level is just incomparable, the detail and quality is simply stunning, a wonderful job I hope you can keep this up
I love the fact that the Germans made about 1200 Tigers yet they appear in so many war movies and comics you would think there were 10 times that number.
Yarnhub, your animation and war story telling is astounding as ever from a simple 2d animation in the past years and now your animation is getting better than ever and also Nice work on making the Legendary Tiger 131 video, keep it up Yarnhub.
Video #4 of asking for Hans-Ulrich Rudel. You have outdone yourself again, great video! It just shows how powerful the Tiger really is, destroying a Churchill in one shot while surviving tens in return fire. Keep up the good work, Cheers!
You guys really did an amazing job with this one! The attention to detail is just increadible. You really can see how your channel grows with each video. The german pronunciation was a little wacky, but nothing serious, it was more a bit of entertaining for a native german speaker :)
We used to have an electronics hobby shop in Toronto that gave out "warning" stickers printed with what you might describe as an uneducated English speaker's idea of German. The funniest time was when I had a German speaking friend read it aloud, giving it his best Hollywood style German accent. It was printed something like this: ACHTENSHUN! Das machinen is nicht fur der mittengraben und fingerpoken. Ist eezy to brekken das springen werks mit much bangen und spitzensparken. Das dumbkopfs bitte keep auf!
I was so happy to have had the chance to travel to see the Bovington tank museum this past summer! Was definitely worth my time, honestly didn't have enough time and was overwhelmed by it all. But the Tiger 1 and 2 are both insane to see in person!
Damn! The rifle pov of the German soldier and the immense details e.g. Grainy texture of helmet, eye reflections skin tones, wounds, nationalites distinction and such other things! Very great job!
Such good animation! It’s as if it was filmed IRL. GoPro-style camera view, the following of the shells, and a great job with the audio, too. Even some German snippets!
No wonder Tiger 131 has really become the most celebrity German tank in the world to this day after seeing the movie Fury fantastic work Yarnhub. Please do the mosquito night intruder story.
Absolutely stunning! Can’t believe how far the animation quality has gotten over the last 3 or so years I’ve been watching the channel! Another great video! Plus, I love the GoPro style footage of the German soldier. Keep up the great work guys!
I started watching you almost 3 years ago, and the detail in your animations has come huge lengths. Everything is so high quality, and the visuals are incredibly satisfying to watch. It's really cool seeing how far your animations have come. I'll continue to watch your career with great interest.
Hey Yarnhub, I’d like to make a request, you don’t have to do it immediately, but I’d like for you guys to at least do it at some point. The Battle of North Cape, the battle where the Scharnhorst was sunk and the surface operations of the Kriegsmarine came to an end. Once again, thank you Yarnhub for making some of the best historical content out there, AND listening to the viewers and at least considering their proposals/requests!
I was lucky enough to be a tank crewman. Not in WW2 of course, but from 2009-2014 on the Marine Corps M1A1. I've had some cool jobs in my life, but that truly is the best job I've ever had.
The animation, storytelling and your ability to bring to life these stories of conflict and against all odds victories, moments of humanity and even times when enemies fought together is just spellbinding. The story of the island of Malta GC during WW2 would be a goldmine for you guys. One Spitfire pilot, George 'Screwball' Beurling of 249 (Gold Coast) Squadron based at RAF Ta Qali managed to take down a BF109 in Spitfire Mk Vb tropical EP706 at a range of 800 yards in a climbing turn. A feat that was never bettered. Wing Commander Adrian Warburton, his amazing skills as a pr pilot on the island made him a legend, there are the stories of the 3 Gloster Gladiators Faith, Hope and Charity, Operation Pedestal, HMS/S Upholder and so many more tales of heroism from the George Cross island
Back then 4 years, pre-rona, 2d-cucumbers stuck together in human shapes... yeah, dunno how u feel, mate ... but me is somehow proud to be a part of seeing them grow😊
I have often seen 131 up at Bovington but now seeing the story of how it was captured is amazing. This is exactly how history should be brought to life. Well done!
You have not seen "the story of how it was captured". Do you really think the video author knows what happened inside that Tiger? How could he know? The crew were never interviewed.
@@Agustin-jd9iq I'm not "asking impossible things" I'm not asking Yarnhub to depict events inside the Tiger that they can't know about. I'm asking them to NOT depict. It's easy. Just don't do it. For example, this video says the Germans "forgot" to destroy the tank. But Yarnhub have no idea what they were really thinking. It may have been impossible to do that. So why invent a fictional narrative and pretend it's history? And as for the Tiger itself: it's in a museum and we KNOW it has no big red button OR stupid graffiti. Should a documentary have jokes in it?
@@daveybyrden3936if the tank crew was ordered to destroy the tank and was given satchel charges but said tank was never destroyed then obviously they forgot to destroy the tank. Given the minimal damage to the tiger it's improbable they ran out time to set the charges which would be the only other explanation as to why it wasn't destroyed and was found empty. The crew was overwhelmed and they bailed then forgot to blow it up full stop.
@@_wanted_outlaw3007 Does "full stop" mean that I'm not allowed to reply? Because you're in charge of freedom of speech? I'm going to reply anyway, because the discussion would benefit from relevant facts, which unfortunately require a long explanation. The Tiger had a circular turret floor. On the right side of this circle there was a large hatch - the only part of the floor not encumbered by machinery. If the turret was facing forward and you raised this hatch, you would get access to some ammunition kept under the floor. If the turret was turned around facing BACKWARDS and you opened the hatch, you would get access to a large storage bin. The charges provided to Tiger crews to disable their tanks were shaped like a cylinder (not a satchel) and there was NO standard box or hook or clip anywhere on the tank's internal walls to hold them. Therefore, crews often put them in that storage box along with other things that did not require instant access. There is at least one British report of seeing a crewman return to an immobilised Tiger and turn its turret around, completely puzzling the British observer, then leaving the tank which soon exploded. So, let's assume the crew of 131 kept their destruction charges in that box. What was the result of the British rounds impacting 131? I'm sure you remember; its turret became jammed and could not turn around. So there's a very plausible reason why they couldn't destroy the tank even if they wanted to.
Your animation has become so clean and detailed. It's amazing to see the progress, and the stories you cover are always entertaining and interesting. Your channel is both informative and engaging. Love your content
Graphics have improved so much that at the end I couldn't tell for a few seconds that it was an actual footage of Tiger 131 and not the animation.😂😅 Keep up the good work, Yarnhub. You're the best! 💪
While the old animations may hold some nostalgia to them, the current work of the animators are absolutely incredible. I loved seeing the channel grow over the years!
This was awsome! My tanking heart pounds fast! You guys could easily remake all old stories into these with this good quality. I would rewatch them all!
It's amazing to see an animated story about Tiger 131 using all of the information that we now have explaining how this monster came to be where it is now.
@@andrewcarlson3486 Allegedly, the German WWII Panzer Veterans Association DO know who the crew were, but are so ashamed of their actions in not destroying Tiger 131 as they were required to do, that they have refused to reveal their names because of the disgrace. They have become "unmentionables" and as far as the Association is concerned, are not worthy of their names being disclosed.
Your 3D modelling crew on permanent Pervitin intake like Aimo Koivunen, or something? These models are simply incredible, I can't even imagine the amount of work going into these, let alone the animation and effects. I wonder if your graphics team also has the same survival knack as Aimo, a cunning ability to make a fire no matter the circumstance. Just make sure they don't make a fire in the middle of the room and burn down the YarnHub studio! It is downright incredible what you guys are putting out.
I remember saying something to make a Tiger 131 based episode in the comments months ago. Looks like they finally did the Legendary girl. ❤❤❤ Same with FURY. 💚💚💚 I also remember typing a comment to probably do both of them as a combo, I LOVE THIS ANIMATION TEAM! ❤💚
The detail on the soldier's face at the start as well as with various soldiers throughout the entire video was surreal, same with all the angles throughout the video, including that part with go-pro style angles. I will always continue to be a big fan of Yarnhub for their very insightful, as well as detailed and educational videos. Seeing them start from just 2d animations and now with incredible detail, super cool. Cheers to the team :)
You guys are awesome. Your work is incredible and thank you for giving us all these stories in a beautiful fashion be common or very niche they are all perfect.
I find it poetic that Tiger 131 was the first captured Tiger and is the final working Tiger. As an avid fan of tanks, I hope that one day I'll be able to see it still running after 10+ years (I'm currently 19 and live in southeast asia). It would be a shame to not see it in working order right before my eyes.
I know this must be the 1000th comment like this you have read, but the animation is STUNNING!!!!! The quality over the years is has consistently became higher quality. Amazing work.
To think tiger 131 would have been a smoldering wreck of twisted metal, steel, and lead if the crew had set off the self-detonating charge! It's always a pleasure to see these stories and even more so with the improving graphics/ detail of the animations!

Bro. That gun POV is so epic. Your animation just keeps getting better and better with each video. You guys are probably the UFOTABLE of historical UA-cam. Your animations are miles away from animations used by actual media network that makes historical documentaries like Drain the Ocean.
4:35 Fun fact, the German commander says (albeit with a terrible English accent :')) "fünfzehnhundert Meter" which means 1,500 metres, not 500 (according to subtitles).
I've been to the Bovington Tank Museum twice and saw Tiger 131 both times in person. It's a great experience to stand directly in front of such a legendary tank
I liked the part with the PIAT, always interesting hearing accounts of it being used in combat. Ever heard of Ernest "Smokey" Smith? You might enjoy his story, he used a PIAT in action in Italy helping him earn the Victoria cross.
There WAS no self destruct button! Don't believe what you see in this video. Check out the Tank Museum's visual tour, it's inside the actual Tiger. Anyway, didn't you notice the stupid puns written on the wall by these video makers? This is not history, this is a comedy video.
Thanks again to @thetankmuseum. See the legendary 131 at tiger day. tankmuseum.org/events
I know it’s been said before but you guy HAVE to make a movie that would be awesome. P.S. I like the new camera angles they look cool
I’m going to the UK to see the tank museum, unfortunately it won’t be tiger day

For example, this video says the Germans "forgot" to destroy the tank. But Yarnhub have no idea what they were really thinking. It may have been impossible to do that. So why invent a fictional narrative and pretend it's history?
And as for the Tiger itself: it's in a museum and we KNOW it has no big red button OR stupid graffiti. Should a documentary have jokes in it?
@@daveybyrden3936if the tank crew was ordered to destroy the tank and was given satchel charges but said tank was never destroyed then obviously they forgot to destroy the tank. Given the minimal damage to the tiger it's improbable they ran out time to set the charges which would be the only other explanation as to why it wasn't destroyed and was found empty. The crew was overwhelmed and they bailed then forgot to blow it up full stop.
@@_wanted_outlaw3007 Does "full stop" mean that I'm not allowed to reply? Because you're in charge of freedom of speech?
I'm going to reply anyway, because the discussion would benefit from relevant facts, which unfortunately require a long explanation.
The Tiger had a circular turret floor. On the right side of this circle there was a large hatch - the only part of the floor not encumbered by machinery.
If the turret was facing forward and you raised this hatch, you would get access to some ammunition kept under the floor.
If the turret was turned around facing BACKWARDS and you opened the hatch, you would get access to a large storage bin.
The charges provided to Tiger crews to disable their tanks were shaped like a cylinder (not a satchel) and there was NO standard box or hook or clip anywhere on the tank's internal walls to hold them.
Therefore, crews often put them in that storage box along with other things that did not require instant access. There is at least one British report of seeing a crewman return to an immobilised Tiger and turn its turret around, completely puzzling the British observer, then leaving the tank which soon exploded.
So, let's assume the crew of 131 kept their destruction charges in that box.
What was the result of the British rounds impacting 131? I'm sure you remember; its turret became jammed and could not turn around.
So there's a very plausible reason why they couldn't destroy the tank even if they wanted to.
@@daveybyrden3936 that was a grammatical error on my part sorry about that.
Thank you youtube algoritm for this channel. A tressure full of awesome war stories.
Your animation has become so clean and detailed. It's amazing to see the progress, and the stories you cover are always entertaining and interesting. Your channel is both informative and engaging. Love your content
Graphics have improved so much that at the end I couldn't tell for a few seconds that it was an actual footage of Tiger 131 and not the animation.😂😅
Keep up the good work, Yarnhub. You're the best! 💪
Amazing work on the animations. The quality became top notch over the past videos. Keep on this amazing work!
Dude the graphics look better than movies!
The sherwood foresters were from my area in Nottingham and stories we were told we just amazing
that tiger growl at 3:51 🐅🧡
While the old animations may hold some nostalgia to them, the current work of the animators are absolutely incredible. I loved seeing the channel grow over the years!
I watched your older videos just a few days ago, the progress you made in animation and detail since then is tremendous. Good work
This was awsome! My tanking heart pounds fast! You guys could easily remake all old stories into these with this good quality. I would rewatch them all!
Wow, the animation definitely improved.
It's amazing to see an animated story about Tiger 131 using all of the information that we now have explaining how this monster came to be where it is now.
And yet we dont know who the commander
@@andrewcarlson3486 Allegedly, the German WWII Panzer Veterans Association DO know who the crew were, but are so ashamed of their actions in not destroying Tiger 131 as they were required to do, that they have refused to reveal their names because of the disgrace. They have become "unmentionables" and as far as the Association is concerned, are not worthy of their names being disclosed.
@@jcorbett9620 There’s a panzer veterans association 😂
@@jcorbett9620 feel like Yarnhub should do a video involving that indian tank commander
Your 3D modelling crew on permanent Pervitin intake like Aimo Koivunen, or something?
These models are simply incredible, I can't even imagine the amount of work going into these, let alone the animation and effects.
I wonder if your graphics team also has the same survival knack as Aimo, a cunning ability to make a fire no matter the circumstance. Just make sure they don't make a fire in the middle of the room and burn down the YarnHub studio!
It is downright incredible what you guys are putting out.
Wow, you guys are amazing! Your animating skills are incredible! Your team deserves 10000000000 Oscar awards!
Dude. The models of the soldiers are absolutely incredible. The stubble on the tigers gunner is just 👌👌👌
I remember saying something to make a Tiger 131 based episode in the comments months ago. Looks like they finally did the Legendary girl. ❤❤❤
Same with FURY. 💚💚💚
I also remember typing a comment to probably do both of them as a combo, I LOVE THIS ANIMATION TEAM! ❤💚
Your animations have improved over the years a lot. Keep up the good work
I really liked that gun pov from the German infantry man
I noticed that too!! Amazing!! In airsoft we use this camera that we call "face cam" it makes the same angle of the player
The detail on the soldier's face at the start as well as with various soldiers throughout the entire video was surreal, same with all the angles throughout the video, including that part with go-pro style angles. I will always continue to be a big fan of Yarnhub for their very insightful, as well as detailed and educational videos. Seeing them start from just 2d animations and now with incredible detail, super cool. Cheers to the team :)
Im a growing tank enjoyer and this helps me to show how really powerful Tigers were
I used your videos for my essay on WW2 and got an easy A thank you for the history yarnhub
For the love of God please make a ww2 movie with this animation I just know it'll be amazing
You guys are awesome. Your work is incredible and thank you for giving us all these stories in a beautiful fashion be common or very niche they are all perfect.
I find it poetic that Tiger 131 was the first captured Tiger and is the final working Tiger. As an avid fan of tanks, I hope that one day I'll be able to see it still running after 10+ years (I'm currently 19 and live in southeast asia). It would be a shame to not see it in working order right before my eyes.
131 was not the first captured Tiger. The Russians captured the first two on 18 January 1943.
I have been watching since you were just simple 2d videos. Amazing how far you have come!
I know this must be the 1000th comment like this you have read, but the animation is STUNNING!!!!! The quality over the years is has consistently became higher quality. Amazing work.
Brad Pitt looks funny here. Then proceed saying "Best job I ever had". Love the animation and story.
2:06 view from the German soldier's gun 😍
also that "1 *3* *1* "
1:38 "self-destrudel" made me laugh unreasonably hard
Bro is out there creating most epic war documentary
To think tiger 131 would have been a smoldering wreck of twisted metal, steel, and lead if the crew had set off the self-detonating charge!
It's always a pleasure to see these stories and even more so with the improving graphics/ detail of the animations!

Bro. That gun POV is so epic. Your animation just keeps getting better and better with each video. You guys are probably the UFOTABLE of historical UA-cam. Your animations are miles away from animations used by actual media network that makes historical documentaries like Drain the Ocean.
4:35
Fun fact, the German commander says (albeit with a terrible English accent :')) "fünfzehnhundert Meter" which means 1,500 metres, not 500 (according to subtitles).
We should have also put an apology to all German speakers
@@Yarnhub
Haha, it's fine.;) Still, reminder that I suggested I could provide you some German voice lines ;)
I've been to the Bovington Tank Museum twice and saw Tiger 131 both times in person. It's a great experience to stand directly in front of such a legendary tank
Could watch these recaps all day long... the animations are awesome.
As a German I must say I really laughed at the "Self-Destrudel. DO NICHT Touch!" :D
I did not know the Germans used go pros in the Second World War 1:53
I liked the part with the PIAT, always interesting hearing accounts of it being used in combat. Ever heard of Ernest "Smokey" Smith? You might enjoy his story, he used a PIAT in action in Italy helping him earn the Victoria cross.
The attention to detail in these videos are getting better
Soo Glad the commander never pressed the self destruct button, it's a piece of history and shall never be destroyed!
There WAS no self destruct button! Don't believe what you see in this video. Check out the Tank Museum's visual tour, it's inside the actual Tiger.
Anyway, didn't you notice the stupid puns written on the wall by these video makers? This is not history, this is a comedy video.
@@daveybyrden3936Your comment could be comedy gold if it was funny
These graphics in this video are fucking amazing guys keep up the good work
