fun fact: The same person that found the wreckage of the Titanic also found the wreckage of the Bismarck as well as investigated many other famous shipwrecks, Robert Ballard.
I've read that afterwards! This guy knows what he is doing ;)
Released 1 year after the last survivor died - he was the 19 year old portrayed. The fishing boat skipper is his son...
See, that is awesome! I love these facts :)
@@VikingReacts The video CGI is pretty accurate about the details of the Bismark, the Hood, the sinking, gun turrets coming off etc. Amazing stuff, made by the gaming studio behind World of Warships. And the Bismark was sunk by it's own crew, to prevent it being capured.
@@impugnu7852 Indeed the only aspect incorrect about the bismarck sinking itself, and what gives evidence of the German crew being the one to sink it and not the insane amounts of damage put into the ship before, is that the Bismarck's bow slipped under the water first, which is what you see when crews scuttle the ship, and then it slipped under which caused it to rocket forward due to the way it slips through the water [think of squeezing a bar of soap underwater] and then it rolled over flipping its turrets out while it was already underwater.
This is also what made locating the Bismarck so difficult because it didn't roll and then sink and thus was in a certain search radius of where it sank, but because of it rocketing forward underwater it was miles away from where it should have been.
Other then that the video was incredibly accurate to what happened during the battle.
@@impugnu7852 Yeah, but I do wish WG had used more accurate ship models and placement. Like in the first battle (Denmark Strait), they had them on the wrong side of each other, and in the final battle, they show a Town-class shooting at the Bismarck, when it should have been a County-class, and they could have used the ship model for Nelson to stand in for Rodney.
@@SetchDreskar the Hood didn't shot a full broadside salvo, the Hood chased the Bismarck but was slower and when the Hood couldn't hit the Bismarck because of the range of the guns , The Bismarck turned into a full broadside salvo and the Hood was in the position where it could only shoot its front guns. The Bismarck then shot an armor piercing shell through the wooden deck and it landed in the gun powder magazine blowing the ship into pieces. In the music video tho they show that the Hood and the Bismarck faced side to side
Bismark was so large and so powerful, Captain Lindemann, the commanding officer, insisted on referring to it as a "he!"
Yeah it was the only ‘male’ ship in any navy at the time.
It identified as male hahahaha....it not like you could tell from flipping it around and taking a look at his keel. 😛
Fun fact, in french it's "un navire" which is male.
This is my favorite historical fact because at this point, Yamato was already in the process of being built and she would turn out to be 2 or 3 destroyers heavier than him
Fun fact, my granddads best friend and his neighbour both served on the Bismarck from September 1940 until January 1941. Only when they met back at home a few weeks later, they found out that they were serving on the exact same ship for four months. During that time, they never met on board.
@@mamavswild Im sure the British had a good look
If you havent really heard of Sabaton, you got a alot of great music to listen to. I would love to see more reactions to other Sabaton songs.
That is the funny thing. I've heard of them but never checked them out :P. Glad I did now!
@@VikingReacts and Im glad too because awesome music makes life so much better
@@VikingReacts i found them last year by watching reactor vids. Thought first they are not my alley but gave them a try. And now i like them! Check out their history channel and their touring vlog! Very interesting! Love your enthusiasm!👍😀
Sabaton - ,,The attack of dead men’’ You'll definitely like it😜🤘
On the list! Thanks for the suggestion!
That is a good one, And so is No bullet fly. Now there is an amazing story about humans heart seeing enemy plane pearly flying.
In the beginning of the Video, you can hear the Radio in the beginning, when the are driving is talking about How the Bismarck have blown up the "The might cruiser Hood"
That lead to the British Navy got the message that Bismarck must be destroyed at all costs and lead to Battle of The Denmark Strait.
The Kriegsmarine was Nazi Germanys Navy.
The Video was made with help from the company behind "World of Tanks" that needed some material to their game "World of Warships". And yes Sabaton really played on a boat in the "middle of nowhere".
"From Wiki"
(just a short version).
Bismarck was the first of two Bismarck-class battleships built for Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine. Named after Chancellor Otto von Bismarck, the ship was laid down at the Blohm & Voss shipyard in Hamburg in July 1936 and launched in February 1939. Work was completed in August 1940, when she was commissioned into the German fleet. Bismarck and her sister ship Tirpitz were the largest battleships ever built by Germany, and two of the largest built by any European power.
In the course of the warship's eight-month career under its sole commanding officer, Captain Ernst Lindemann, Bismarck conducted only one offensive operation, lasting 8 days in May 1941, codenamed Rheinübung. The ship, along with the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen, was to break into the Atlantic Ocean and raid Allied shipping from North America to Great Britain. The two ships were detected several times off Scandinavia, and British naval units were deployed to block their route. At the Battle of the Denmark Strait, the battlecruiser HMS Hood initially engaged Prinz Eugen, probably by mistake, while HMS Prince of Wales engaged Bismarck. In the ensuing battle Hood was destroyed by the combined fire of Bismarck and Prinz Eugen, which then damaged Prince of Wales and forced her retreat. Bismarck suffered sufficient damage from three hits to force an end to the raiding mission.
The destruction of Hood spurred a relentless pursuit by the Royal Navy involving dozens of warships. Two days later, heading for occupied France to effect repairs, Bismarck was attacked by 16 obsolescent Fairey Swordfish biplane torpedo bombers from the aircraft carrier HMS Ark Royal; one scored a hit that rendered the battleship's steering gear inoperable. In her final battle the following morning, the already-crippled Bismarck was severely damaged during a sustained engagement with two British battleships and two heavy cruisers, was scuttled by her crew, and sank with heavy loss of life. Most experts agree that the battle damage would have caused her to sink eventually. The wreck was located in June 1989 by Robert Ballard, and has since been further surveyed by several other expeditions..
All Sabaton songs are about historical events, mainly Battles, Heroes/ Act of Heroism / Famous last stands etc.
You should really check out their History Channel, The have a Historian (Indy Neidell) talking about the story behind their songs, and Indy is really amazing storyteller and they do have a video about Bismarch and how this Video was made).
That is a lot of info and very welcome! I actually noticed the radio saying that :). I am a bit hesitant to check out the history channel before I watch the video as I am absolutely adamant about not being spoiled. It is my goal to find as much as I can on my very own. I am watching the videos after editing though ;)
Last Stand / To Hell and Back / Great War are great songs by them :)
Added your suggestions to my list as well :). Thanks!
And Uprising and last battle and ghost Division also Wolfpack
@@VikingReacts Go make a vid With Carolus Rex!! The most powerful Sabaton song!
You have some catching up to do. Their 10th album releases later this year...
Also try Sabaton History Channel for background to events in songs.
See... that is advice! Thanks for that. I will surely check it out. I am cautious though as I try to avoid the music or the clips before I actually react to the video. That is why you saw me add the history facts later. I knew some but not all...
@@VikingReacts but watching the history channel 1st will help you better understand the song, you should do reaction's to the history Channel also you will learn so much as they do an outstanding job with them
Scuttling a ship is easy. In the Engineering spaces, the main engines are steam turbines and need large quantities of seawater to condense the steam back into water to be returned to the boilers. Small charges on the sea chests feeding this seawater to the engines, thus flooding the engine rooms. This I know from being an engineer on a Nimitz class carrier.
Sweet! Must have been a busy job... I had never heard the term before and had to look it up as I edited. But that must be a hard decision to make...
They have a history page where they explain the history behind their songs. Always fun to watch after your reactions. Enjoy!
I may just have to check that out. I like history in general... and Sabaton just adds to it :)
I think youd like "Swedish Pagans" \m/ :). The band is from Falun, Sweden. You could also listen to Panzer batallion. Its about the gulf war, since you mentioned your father serving... and then of course the rest of their nine awesome albums :)
Someone else mentioned that as well ;). It is on the list to be checked out!
One of our neighbors who died years ago was a survivor of the Bismarck. He was very miserable the rest of his days. Poor soul.😢
I think No bullets fly, Uprising-Live, ghost division-Live, and Attack of the dead men, Will be ones you'll like, i don't know but hope you like them.
I will be sure to check them out. Sabaton has caught my attention ;). Thanks for the suggestions!
@@VikingReacts Uprising and ghost division must be from the 2012 woodstock though, also what country are you from, jus curious.
Fun fact, my granddads best friend and his neighbour both served on the Bismarck from September 1940 until January 1941. Only when they met back at home a few weeks later, they found out that they were serving on the exact same ship for four months. During that time, they never met on board.
Lol i actually met the lead singer 7 years ago my parents took me to a concert and met him there at age 7 😂 i remember him being rlly nice!
Pure awesomeness. I've mainly met actors BUT I have had a chat with Floor Jansen at some point. She was really nice. The nicest actors btw were William Shatner (Star Trek), Lennie James (the walking dead), Sophie Skelton (Outlander) and Katherine McNamara (Arrow, Shadowhunters)
Night Witches story video is something u should check out. Or the other story videos for that matter. So good, both the music and the storys behind them.
Sabaton with 82nd all the way are about sergeant York from Tennessee fighting in the Argonne (France) 1918. Awsome song, and Amaranthe (Swedish band) has s cover of this and there are also Amaranthe together with Sabaton live with this song .Triple reaction maybe? 😀🇸🇪
Sounds like a plan. Another great comment and suggestion :)
You really need to React to No Bullets Fly by Sabaton. It is a true story, And amazing one of that. Check the hole video.
Sabaton is one of the best bands in the industry and that's an undeniable fact. Love em or hate em but no one does it like them. And Bismarck is a special song on top of its absolute epicness because the topic has been requested by fans so much that they felt like they couldn't just put it on an album so they released it as a single and had that mega collab with that game production company that made the battle ship game, I believe?
Also the Bismarck is rumored to have been titled as male instead of the usual female for ships because it was just so special and was the most advanced battle ship of his time, I believe. Not an expert on the topic although I'm German but yeah.
You're amazing by the way! Absolutely love that you put the lyrics into the videos, love the random history facts. That's how a reaction video should be done ❤️ Mad probs to you!
My favorite music genres are metal, Kpop and classical music and whenever I watch Kpop reaction videos (with 99% of the songs obviously in Korean) most of the people reacting to it don't care to google the translations of the lyrics first and then say things like "Aw I can't understand what they're singing/rapping about because I don't know Korean". Yeah, no shit Sherlock... But that simultaneously lead to several lyric connected points going straight over their heads and that's just so sad because so many songs are not only absolute bangers but have so much meaning regarding the lyrics. It's just a waste.
So thanks so much for the way you do it. I'm a fan ❤️
Hey there, Mr. dutch Viking. Greeting grom germany.
Awesome reaction. Keep em coming.
Thanks, will do! Und schönen Tag noch ;)
They have so many amazing songs. I'm just gonna list the ones I personally like the most, and which I think you should definitely listen to:
Primo Victoria
No bullets fly (the animated story video is amazing)
Panzerkampf
Attack of the dead men
Fields of Verdun
Great War
Uprising
The FInal Solution
PS: Always love to see people that react to a sabaton song, doing research about it's topic. Big plus for that!
Well... the thing is that I have always been interested in history. So much that I wanted to be an archaeologist. Sadly...that never happened and I ended up in IT :P. I will add those songs to my immense spreadsheet :P
@@VikingReacts Please do not listen to the official music video to Primo Victoria, it is awful.
@@eklof4003 Yes it is, live version is much better, or the clip with extraxcts from Private Ryan.
Primo!!!!
Definitely Uprising (live in Woodstock) and DEFINITELY The Final Solution... 🖤🤘🏻
A torpedo dropped from a plane with canvas wings damaged the Bismark's rudder, jamming it. Bismark was stuck moving in a circle and couldn't get away. When it was no longer able to fight, the captain opened underwater doors and flooded her before the allies could board, sending her to the bottom.
I figured that out after watching it. I didn't want to do too much research as I didn't want spoilers to the actual song. i love how they portrayed it in this video by the way!
On the topic of stopping the british boarding her, the royal navy had been given strict orders to sink the bismark, and historians generally agree the the ship would have eventually sunk due to battle damage.
Bismark knowledge: Even when the ship was sinking the British ships kept on shooting it till they couldn't see it anymore and only a couple German Sailors were recovered cause the British ships feared German submarines would sink them.
My favourite part of your reaction is the little pieces of facts that you post along the top of the video, from the displacement of the Bismarck to the crew count to the lucky rudder strike that lead to his eventual end. That shows me that Sabaton done their job, getting people to engage with history through kick ass metal music
Oh history was always something I liked. So this is just perfect for me ;). I am glad you like my way of editing :)
its insane that they traped and bombarded bismarck for 6h before they stopped and left here to sink and she sank 3hrs after they left, insane
Great reaction and Welcome to a new rabbit hole!!🤘🤘🤘 Nightwish is an awesome rabbit hole and Sabaton is another one!😄 Enough for a full time job!😁
Check out Sabaton's "Seven pillars of wisdom" (official music video), "Lion from the North" (official music video), "82:nd all the way" (live from Oslo 2020 feat. Amaranthe or live from Munich 2020), "En livstid i krig" (=A Lifetime of war. Live from Gothenburg, 2020. English captions on, they sing in Swedish) and "No bullets fly" (animated story video. That's a great story!)
Since you call yourself Viking, you also might wanna check out Sabaton's "Swedish pagans" (live from Wacken, 2019). 😁🤘
Greetings from Sweden!!🤘🤘🇸🇪
All added to the list :). Thanks for all of you suggestions! And yes indeed...2 rabbit holes to dig out :P
You forgot "Night Witches" (animated story video). I always get tears in my eyes watching this video and listening to this song about these very young but also very brave women.
@@ralflukas9695 You're right, I didn't mention that song. Honestly, I coudn't deside whitch version to recommend. The animated story video or the live version from Leipzig... Both are awesome, so both of them it is.🤘
Dude... i just recorded En Livstid I Krig for wednesdays video. Damn... thank you very much. That was a ride...
@@VikingReacts It was, wasn't it!?😊🤘 Looking forward to see your reaction!🤘
Thank you for showing the video in big format. For some reason, other people who reacts on videos chose the opposite.
I mean... I get why they do it. It shows their reaction best and you can actually see every detail of it. I however feel that the artists are the main focal point and that you can see enough to see what I feel in this way. Glad you like it :)
Knew you'd like these guys, brother! Once you start down the rabbit hole there's no coming out. Headbanging and history, there's nothing like it!
Here's some suggestions for future reactions:
Swedish Pagans (Vikings)
Primo Victoria (D-Day)
Uprising (Warsaw insurrection)
Winged Hussars (Polish cavalry)
I could go on, but take your time and check these guys out at your pace.
Also, regarding the Nightwish day, you may want to have that on Friday, only because for the past few months another UA-cam reactor had been using Wednesday as his "dedicated Nightwish day." But like I said, take your time and check out both bands. They're awesome! Keep on rocking! SKÅL! HAIL ODIN!
PS... 3:32 - THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID 😝😝😝🤣🤣🤣
Ah... ok, so I think friday will be the day... Judging by the amount of comments for Sabaton... I think we need a dedicated for them as well :P.
And yes indeed: That is what she said :P
Hello from France. I just discovered your channel and I love your reaction to this track which is for me the best of Sabaton. Their solo guitarist is for me one of the best in the world and he has a UA-cam channel: Tommy Johansson
can´t wait for the 82nd all the way reactions - ALL 3 OF THEM xD xD xD
Oh... how did you know that will be a triple reaction :P
Great idea Karolien! I vote for Nightwish Friday! 1. Floor is a metal godess; 2. NIghtwish always had female singers; 3. As Karolien wrote, it's her daughters name!
Nightwish friday is now a thing ;)
Interesting fact, They actually preformed on the site where the Bismarck was scuttled, also, they tried to play in conditions which were most similar to a firefight, meaning foggy and rain.
2:36 Numbers of the compass is localization Bismarck
Great job on catching most of the details. They also showed the sinking of the Hood for a short bit early on in the video. The silhouette is pretty unmistakable
Been in the Sabaton army for a decade and its always Nice seeing someone discovery the Band.
Sabaton writes epic songs of epic history. Others epic storys are;
Screaming Eagles
Carolus Rex
40 :1 ( live woodstock)
Nightwitches (animated story)
No bullets fly (animated story)
En livstid i krig (live Grand tour Göteborg, epic song in swedish so put caps on)
Most of these are on the list. I've copied 2 more from yours :). En livstid i krig has a reaction already ;). Thanks for the comment and the suggestions!
Thank you to World of Warships for creating the amazing battle scene for this video. All the ships and fighting were created using CGI, then used Live Action actors placed into the scene. This is just one example of some of World of Warship's amazing battle scenes they can make. BTW- World of Warships is a free to play warship game.
Hey! Great reaction! Thanks for the acknowlidgement! Maybe a silly question, but why did you a Nightwish-day pole at a Sabaton reaction?
Good question! Don't remember exactly :P
I think I did it as this was the first other band I reacted to after doing only Nightwish. Pretty sure i mentioned it to make sure people knew that Nightwish is not gone and would get their own day.
@@VikingReacts I think it's a fair question. Why do you assume that people who like NIghtwish or who like to whatch Nightwish reactors getting into them follow every video you post? It doesn't matter what you said in this video, fact is that it will not reach everybody who likes Nightwish or Nightwish commentors.
@@VikingReacts It just stroke me as a bit odd. No worries!
Fun Fact: Sabaton played in New Zealand and whilst here Joakim did get the traditional Māori tattoo on his arm and as it's done the traditional way usually with a bone or sharks tooth and a rock it's extremely painful but ya boi Joakim downed a bottle of vodka and they just went for it.
Well that’s metal
Bismarck´s "sister" was the Tirpitz, she got sunk in a Norwegian fjord by the RAF using Tallboy bombs on nov 12 1944...
That was epic! Sabaton never disappoints.
A running theory is that once it was obvious that they would not win that naval battle, the Germans apparently blew up the main battery to skuttle the ship so it wouldn’t fall into ally hands. Scientists have actually analyzed the wreckage and found that the external damage wasn’t consistent with the interior damage found
Yeah, i read up on it and saw that as well. Pretty bad ass if you think about it!
Great reaction. It's hard not to like this song. They also have many more great songs and videos. I think that the idea with Friday is a great idea. So I vote for Friday. Stay safe🤘😁🤘
I think Friday it is indeed. Only issue... I haven't had the time to record a new one yet and it is Friday!
@@VikingReacts for what I know, the Nightwish army is pretty patient when it comes to more reactions of this band.. The only thing.. Keep them coming because we love to see other people fall in love with Nightwish and.. În some way.. We are listening together the same song, so it creates a bond. 🤘😁🤘
Just found you as I love both sabaton and nightwish...Yaye! More kindred spirits haha
I worked with several Nordic soldiers when I was deployed to Iraq, maybe even crossed paths with your dad that you mentioned...especially if you’re Swede or Norwegian.
Subbed!
Well first of all...Thanks for the sub. I doubt that have crossed paths with him unless you have crossed paths with Dutch forces. Would be cool though ;)
Just in case nobody has mentioned this already the band has a awesome war history channel and they know quite a lot and they can speak about history in a way that is informative and entertaining. Thanks for the video and even though I am a og Nightwish fan I do like the variety. Have a nice Easter and stay safe.
The Bismarck sank the hms hood when it was supposed to avoid action, the hood was the pride of the British navy and sinking her made all other ships harass the Bismarck until she was sunk x
Just imagine that behemoth making it into open waters...
Duude....guess I've been under a rock, myself. I need to check some more out by these guys. Brings back my bad girl days of Van Halen and Iron Maiden. Great song, awesome video! ✌😸
Though I am somewhat in touch with Sabaton I had not seen this video before. It was fun watching it with you for the first time.
Yay. A double first :)
Nice video, you're fantastic. Keep going👍🏼
Thanks a lot for the compliment. I shall continue!
The Royal Navy gave no remorse when they finally caught up to “him” The Bismarck.... and the Bismarck was built so well that the Germans scheduled their own ship, rather than having it turned over to Allied hands... as a war trophy
The bismark was a behemoth of a ship had it managed to get into open atlantic waters then allied shipping would have completly ground to a halt as the bismark could single handly shred entire convoys escort and all
Yup, they did like to build just slightly overpowered :P
welcome to Heavy Metal History!
Thanks :P. You have no idea how many times I've listened to this song now :P
Let me help you get the historical facts straight, which you begin to outline around 11:25. Yes, there were two ships of the Bismarck class. Bismarck and Tirpitz. But no, not both of them were on this mission. it had originally been intended, but RAF bombing runs delayed the completion of Tirpitz's construction and also damaged several other cruisers that were supposed to participate in that mission. Originally "Operation Rheinübung" was supposed to be comprised of both battleships and i think 4 or 5 heavy cruisers. Just imagine what damage that battlegroup could have done to the supply convoys that kept Britain alive.... But it was not to be. The window of opportunity for the mission was rapidly closing, and thus high command ordered the mission to go ahead with the only two operational ships: Bismarck and the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen. Also, Prinz Eugen was not sunk in this operation - and in fact it survived the entirety of the war. After the war it was used by the US as target in nuclear tests at Bikini Atoll - and even then it refused to sink - at first anyway.
Tirpitz spent most of its time in various fjords around Norway until it was eventually sunk by the RAF. While it existed, Tirpitz was a constant and major headache to the British, because they knew from the Battle of the Denmark Strait and the subsequent effort necessary to sink the Bismarck, how much of a threat Tirpitz's mere presence in the area posed to allied operations - not the least of which being the arctic convoys.
Most people: bismarck was the largest warship ever.
Yamato and musashi: riiiiiiiight........
Can say without a doubt ive learned more about history from sabaton then all the
years in school! Sabaton
Proud Swedish , have seen them live they are awesome!
I am just slightly jealous ;)
@@VikingReacts i hope you get a chans to see them too !
fun fact about the Bismarck. In the song the bands refers to the boat as He, this is actually true, while nautical tradition gives ships feminine pronouns, the German Admiralty felt that the Bismarck was to powerful to be referred to as a female.
I noticed him singing that actually. Makes sense actually...
Bismarck was the first of two Bismarck-class battleships built for Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine.
Fun fact: they originally wanted to use the USS New Jersey as a stand in for the Bismarck, but due to the expense and red tape to make that happen, they decided to have Wargaming recreate it in CG. Also, there's a theory that the Bismarck was scuttled by the crew because video of it sinking shows it slipping beneath the waves and that the British couldn't actually sink it.
Since you are into facts about this. The "enlisted crew" were in fact volunteers from all of Germany. And maritime law dictates that a ship is called a She, not the bismarck the admiralty of the KMS didn't want to dishonor the name of Otto Von Bismarck (Germany's first Reichs chanceller) so they called this ship in male call sign. Therefore the lyrics, "HE WAS MADE TO RULE THE WAVES ACROSS THE SEVEN SEAS"
As you probably know by now, Sabatons drummer is married to Floor Jansen ❤️
This was a great reaction man totally loved it. Watched it earlier and subscribed just didn't have time to comment comment until now. Let me know about that Braai.
😋🤘😁🤘
Thanks for the sub! And yes... a braai has to happen even though it is snowing right now as I write this. Damn the weather and prep the food!
The lion of the north, the final solution, the last stand, shiroyama, heart of iron and great war are all amazing songs.
And they are indeed on the list ;)
My favorites are Screaming Eagles and Night Witches. Just great!
Sabaton are from Vikingaland - Falun , Sweden
Vikingaland... sounds like something i'd like...
In a way, it's kinda a good thing they didn't see much action. But could you imagine if the Bismarck and the Yamato had been involved with more fights; what a battle that would have been to witness?
Nice reaction 🤟 First song? You got 90+ of great songs to explore by Sabaton from passed 20y+ 🇸🇪. My personal favourite is "Screaming Eagles" official video ❤️
Added! You are the first to suggest it I think... Thanks :)
You would love Brothers of Metal. I suggest "Hel" (all around awesome song with a cool animated video) and "To the Skies and Beyond" (makes me want to get out my longsword and die for glory & Valhalla).
Haha, it is on my list. It shall happen!
I suggest Ghost Division by Sabaton. It is absolutely beautiful. I suggest the live version
On the list! Will be done :)
Tommy Johanson the guitarist does epic metalcovers on his channel.
His voice wauw😊
Oh I know. I LOVE Tommy and have done a few reacts on him already. Definitely more to come! I've started calling myself a Tommy fanboy after doing those reactions actually :P
@@VikingReacts yes he is also soo funny and nice,i hsve seen the sabaton tourvlogs and he is always joking haha
And his voice wauw.
By the way love youre reactions
Bismarck is scuttled on the bottom of the ocoean
Sabaton on Torsdag!
Hmm, that would make sense... Who knows... let's see if i can manage a schedule like that. I am trying to figure out this whole UA-cam thing as I go.
If you really want to go down the Sabaton rabbit-hole, I would recommend these:
(These are all from the Sabaton Channel, and they never block videos so it's safe to use)
[live at Woodstock 2012]: 40:1 and Uprising
[Great Tour Live Videos]: En Livstied I Krieg (make sure to turn subtitles on, Red Baron, Swedish Pagans, Primo Victoria, Fields of Verdun, Devil Dogs & Angels Calling
[Lyric videos]: Attack of the dead men, In Flanders Fields, 82nd All the way, Sparta, Shiroyama and The lost betallion
[Music Video's]: Fields of Verdun, Rourke's Drift, Screaming Eagles, Uprising & Seven Pillars of wisdom
[Animated History Video's]: Night Witches and No Bullets Fly (not animated music video's, the animated history/story video's)
[Covers]: Kingdom Come - Deliverance
and I'm sure people told you but in case, Sabaton have another channel (Sabaton History Channel) where they do a deep dive into the history behind the songs with Indy Nidell.
Then they have the Metal celebration trilogy:
Metal Machine (lyrics made up of out of song names) ua-cam.com/video/AvRZxn7e3hc/v-deo.html
Metal Crüe (lyrics made up out of band names) ua-cam.com/video/6bKwflpbCYk/v-deo.html
Metal Ripper (lyrics made up out of song lyrics) ua-cam.com/video/FQNVraMtNes/v-deo.html
Also check out the "3 songs from Wacken 2019" video althgouh this will get blocked, so just watch that one without making a video...
A lot of info there. I have used it to update my list of reactions to come. Thanks a lot for your effort :)
How about wednesday and friday 😂😍?
Haha, I would love to. Right now I can record almost as many as I'd like as I am recovering from burn out and work less as a result but I do need to be careful of setting schedules for myself. But no worries... Nightwish will have all my attention ;)
Thursday - Thor's Day
All day!!
yes wednesday is Odin´s day
How about Wintersun - Sons of winter and stars (official rehearsel)
Also a link with Nightwish, the current drummer Kai plays in this band and is murdering his drumkit.
A lot of people have suggested this. Soon...very soon ;)
Bismarck stayed behind so that the other German warship Prinz Eugen could escape as British were on them.
Actually Admiral Lindemann gave the order to scrample the ship they opened a hatch at the front of the ship and sank it,that's why there where nearly no damage to the hull
It sank like a uboat, it slowly drove under the waves and turned when it was nearly under water
btw wolfpack is a good song too
Yeah, I read that. I think I didn't explain that fully at the end...
I didn't know that last bit though...
@@VikingReacts btw if you think the Bismarck is big check out the Yamato
The tripiz and Bismarck were both scuttled bismarck and Prinz eugen (a admiral hipper class) were in the pacific they split up Prinz eugen got away Bismarck didn’t tripiz was repeatedly bombed at port by the British on the eastern front they eventually scuttled her after being converted to a gun platform since the bombing they scuttled her so the Russians wouldn’t catch her HOWEVER OTHER BISMARCKS CLASSES WERE BUILT AND NEVER FINISHED there were 5 total one of them was captured by the Russians but scrapped
Quite epic my Jarl!
Hahahaha, hello my friend :)
First things first, Nightwish Friday in honor of Freya. You should check out Iron Maiden's war epic Paschendale from Death on the Road. Maiden set the standard for putting you in the action with their storytelling.
Cool... i'll put it on the list. I know some Iron Maiden songs when I hear them but I am not sure of some titles. Let's hope I do not know this one :P
@@VikingReacts It probably isn't. It's not a staple of their live shows but is the spiritual successor to The Troop. It also has a very distinctive intro and is one of their most epic sounding songs.
SABATON 💪🤘💪🤘💪🤘
Hello from Belgiun. Great reaction, I would suggest trying some live performances, either from The Great Tour or Woodstock 2012.
Cool, thanks! And greetings to our southern neighbour :)
@@VikingReactsThanks, maybe you could react to Resist and Bite,from the Antwerp show,it was great,I was there🤘
History with a beat !
Amen!
the ship was name after
Otto von Bismarck the first chancellor or president for there country
Thanks for the info :)
your welcome
just a little detail to correct: bismark was called as a HE not a SHE and was just called bismark without any prefix. none of the Warships in the kriegsmarine had one
funfact: the second name of my second doughter is also freya and i am german. i love those nordic names
I'm here for the Sabaton! More of that! :-) Skål, mann!
More to come! The list is ever growing ;)
8:37 he*
Bismarck was actually known as he instead of she. I don't think i'm the first one to tell you this😂
Subbed
Great the first Reacter have seen the easteregg with this Guy on the Fisherboat
How can you not see that??
@@VikingReacts i don't know. But it is the Part i have "Gänsehaut" this proud old Man bring Sabaton to the Bismark as last survivor
You should react to Sabaton - Great War
On the list! Thanks!
Freja and Odin say do both!
Fun fact: Hannes from sabaton is also baby Frejas father
I am well aware by now ;). Cool right?
@@VikingReacts very. And as a born and raised swede i will take liberty to say i approve of your work, and thank you for sharing your love for my birth country's culture. Tack, må lycka och rikedom följa dig till valhall :)
You should react to Sabaton - The Final Solution, that song will definitly bring tears to your eyes.
It shall happen! Thanks for the suggestion :)
Every time I hear this song saw this video I had fucking go's bumps
Can't blame you. It is extremely powerful. To me at least :P
@@VikingReacts to me this song had a special meaning cause I'm from Germany and the Bismarck was our greatest ship ever
@@frostwolf40k Well technically I am from Germany as well. I was born there and lived there for the first 13 years of my life ;)
@@VikingReacts oh nice your welcome sir
Amazing Sabaton...Hannnes Van Dahl is marriend with Floor Jansen...amazing talents
Yeah, someone mentioned that. Nice bridge from Nightwish to Sabaton right ;)
It's amazing 99 percent of the people who REVIEW this song miss everything in it. The old Man is taking Sabaton Back in time to see the Ghost of Bismarck fight her Battles. He is the young Man who survived the sinking. He has the compass the Captain of Bismarck gave him. Their is a ton more info so go back and watch carefully. Thanks for noticing and realizing the Old Man was the survivor. That old Man just died recently. His Father was the Last living survivor of KM Bismarck.
It is somewhat of a challenge sometimes as I do not really investigate that much. I do NOT want to be spoiled before I check anything out. Maybe that is why I look closer than some others? I don't know... But how can you not notice the old man with the watch? The watch is in so many shots. I even looked up the coordinates on the watch and found out that they are very close to where the ship was found in 1989 ;)
@@VikingReacts Look at the Pictures on his wall at the start of the video. it's a compass, not a watch. The lyrics that say they lie bound by Iron and Blood. That was a reference to Otto Von Bismarck. His nickname was the iron Chancellor.
"been living under a rock perhaps?".... well.... you said it best XD
React to more Sabaton please.
Haha, well...i always tend to make fun of myself for being ignorant of stuff like this. But hey...imagine all the things I have yet to discover :)
@@VikingReacts also, react to Sabaton's latest live concert. They played Europe early 2020 before everything went to sh*t, and to give back to the fans who couldn't go to any more shows, they posted songs from their concert from different venues. Really recommend it! And about your reaction to "et livstid i krig" this is from their Carolus Rex album, which they made a two parter, one recorded in Swedish, another in English. The difference between the two albums are that the Swedish version follows the view of the soldier, while the English version follows the view of an observer, so you get a very different take on the song. You can check out and/or react to their English version, called "a life time of war".
@@NorseOkies I may just do that... there is so much to react to though ;)
@@VikingReacts now I got it in writing, so I'll hold that against you now.
@@NorseOkies When I commit... I COMMIT :P
Welcome to the brilliant band, hope you love Epica, within temptation and detain for starters 👍
I've recorded Consign to oblivion yesterday. YES! I love Epica!
Nice that you have best screen!!
It helps me achieve the best tribute a band can get in a reaction video. A full screen instead of tiny window ;). Glad you like it :)
Don't mind your hair, it looks great from here.😺
