Great video! This has potential to be a good series as well, biographies on relatively unknown people that had a hand in influencing world events.
Aidan agrees, so we're researching a few of these to construct a playlist.
I've heard About zigzag because of the book written by Ben Macintyre, I will admit I never had the opportunity to read it, but I love history so it's definitely something that's on my list, I enjoyed the video and this just helps further my interest.
Found this channel through "Vlogging Through History" Subscribed and eager to dive into this channel's great content.
Thanks for coming by!
Very interesting. I learned a lot more from this video. Keep up the good work.
Interesting video lad, never expected to learn about agent ZigZag while I was still watching a Red Dead 2 stream from Fishy 20 minutes ago. Keep it up 👍
I had personally never heard this story, but I love hearing about the action of MI5, as it seems that so many actions undertaken by lone people had such huge efforts. From this guys work in making the Germans believe the V1 was actually hitting targets to the actions of Garbo which directly influenced German Panzer movements in the lead up to D-Day, it really seems like some of the most influential parts of the war were done alone
Wow, this is an excellent video, had no idea who he was, now want to read his book 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Awesome video, keep up the good work guys!
Cheers!
Awesome. Thank you.
Very interesting, love it!
Another brill video and about a story I’ve not heard of before always excited when new decades video releases.
Very good video.
Question. What happened to the yacht he got?
Now this right here is the right question.
Eddie Chapman is not that unknown, in an After-War movie he was played by a wellknown British actor, along with Yul Brynner and Romy Schneider.
Of course he's not completely anonymous and in fact was quite famous for his role in the war, however he wouldn't be on a shortlist for the most recognisable individuals associated with the War. That being said, regardless his story is truly fascinating.

Seems kinda wild that someone with his pattern of behaviour and personality could ever be trusted as a spy lol.
Well, History is pretty wild.
This is arguably one of the more tame ones.
There ya' go with that film snow effect again. It's distracting & ruinous to the film you use. Give it a rest or, although a fan of the material, give this channel a rest.
