Over 500 kills with a riffle and way more with a machine gun. That is a huge number. Thanks for this one ( again ).
Thank you
505 sniper kills and aboute 200-300 kills with machingun.
Submachine gun, not machine gun. The legendary Suomi.
And because he worked mostly alone, most likely the real kill count is couple of hundred more. To be a confirmed kill someone else has to see it, and Simo worked hard to not be detected doing his work.
And thats in the span of 98 days. He begged to get to the continuation war but was not accepted due to still healing from 27 surgeries.
When thinking about the amazing performance of Simo Häyhä one has to keep in mind that the Winter War only lasted 105 days and during those there were only a few daylight hours per day....
I will not take away the glory for the Finnish but as a Swede im super proud of how they resisted the might of the Red Army and that i can call them brothers!
do brothers invade and forcibly convert you to christianity? do brothers force you to speak their language?
swedes and finns are not brothers
@@deandingus6999 This might be the dumbest comment in 2022..
@@hex1c yet you can't even refute it, sad
@@deandingus6999I dont have to do anything. You're just a little troll
@@hex1c how am i a troll? just because i dare to speak the truth about finno-swedish relations?
The name you were looking for, of another Finnish soldier, is Larry Thorne - originally Lauri Törni.
Yes Thank You
@@TouchyReactions Lauri Törni aka Larry Thorne, fight in 3 armies... We Finnish are little
Today 6th of dec is Finland's Independence Day. 105 years old 💪
Typical Independence day is celebrated with litting blue/white candles on the windowsill it's an old tradition with multiple meanings. One is the candles will sign a safehouse for jaegers of white guard.
Evening tradition is to watch the Independence Day ball, which usually brings thousands of guests to the Presidential Palace in Helsinki.
Last week, the president hosted an early Independence Day celebration for war veterans and former members of the Lotta Svärd women's defence organisation to ensure their health and safety.
There are still an estimated 3,000 World War II veterans in Finland. Their average age is 97.
White Death has always been one of my favourites, the history behind it is just amazing, great reaction from you, and a pre-emptive congrats on 10k! (Very close to it as of the writing of this)
Creeping up on it. The SB19 fans are working on it today.
I guess it is said here already but i say it anyway. When a German magazine " Der Spiegel " interviewed Hayha what did he feel when he shot an enemy soldier, he said " The recoil". I read somewhere,
i don´t know is it true but he also said " a rifle kills, but fear paralyzes ".
And btw. ofcourse we know him as White Dead, but Finnish name of him is Taika-ampuja -> magic shooter.
Talvisota is another one about Finnland! Its a banger, reccomend it to be looked at
It's on my list
Soldier of 3 armies also
Hugin, I have done Soldier of 3 armies already. You can find it on my channel.
@@TouchyReactions 👍
A solid song about a solid soldier.
P.S. It's May the 1-st and channel has 10.5 k subs. Next station is 15 k, I believe.
The Race to The Sea Sabaton History video just dropped. Can't wait for your reaction to it!
What....sweet. I'm on it.
Petitioning for TouchyReaction and OldSkuleNerd to do a Sabaton reaction together. I'd love to see that!
Also, congrats on 10,000 subs!!!
That would be crazy
Lauri Törni Larry Thorne another Finish talent
Another great reaction! - And you've really come a long way on your Sabaton journey! I think it's awesome that you know so much about their different sounds and how they've changed and developed their style throughout the years. I remember back when you started; you asked whether you could call yourself a member of the Sabaton Army, and I think it's clear to everybody that you've definitely reached that point (long before today). You've developed a taste for what you like and what you dislike and have insightful and thought-provoking things to say about different songs and you know so much history now! It might sound strange, because I'm not sure if I'm the right person to say it, but I'd like to express how proud I feel that you've come so far on this journey and still choose to continue to explore, critique and comment on their music.
I know for a fact that you've gotten some of us Sabaton fans into other stuff you're reacting to. Thanks for letting us explore music from all over the world together with you! Congratulations to 10K subscribers and always: stay honest, stay classy - and stay awesome, because you are a really awesome guy, Touchy. Cheers!
Edit: It would be really cool if you did a celebratory livestream when you reach 10K, like a Q&A or something.
Anechka, you are so sweet. Thank you for making me smile this morning. 💕 might set up for a live stream this weekend for 10k. Saturday sometime.
Love this song. Always even one of my faves. And probably my fave Sabaton History episode. 82nd all the way and Attack Of The Dead Men are great episdoes as well tho, oh and Sabotaurs.
The Soldier of Three Armies was Lauri Torni/Larry Thorne
Yes, I forgot. Thanks
Amazing song. Amazing person. Means much to me as a Finn, obviously. Two great songs in a row now (Rorke's Drift is easily in my top 5, perfect song!), keep it up.
Also, congrats to 10k subs!
Thank you so much
You want a long intro, Sabaton's song Rise of Evil is 8 minutes long🤣
check our Meth Fueled Finn by Yarnhub, another legendary Finnish soldier but for slightly different reasons
Name was you were looking for is Lauri Törni aka Larry Thorne.
Sabaton - Race to the Sea history episode has just released on Sabaton History
I'm all over it. Reaction Drops next Saturday
They make songs from finnish war heroes, becouse sweden have not any in last 200 years ;) And we finns have saying...Sweden fights to the last finn, like allways. But i LOVE SABATON!! :)
Piscator has made some fantastic lyrics videos, plus put quite a bit of the history in the description
Sabaton loves when people do reactions to their music and they don't copyright😊
I wish UA-cam agreed with you. I always upload with no changes first. After it's been copyrighted, I cover it.
@@TouchyReactions Ooh okay, sorry
Yes!!!! I been waiting for this one
hello from Finland
Hello Paronen
Loved this one! Great as always man!
Thanks Sean
I don’t know if the english term is Bottling, but it is basically the tactic taught even in West Point, where you take out the first, the last and a few vehicles in a convoy (so the convoy can’t move) and then siege the burning lighted pockets in the darkness.
Invented in Finland and at best gave win against about 1:50 power. Believe me, we were pretty amazed too at the time!
Also, pretty much every technique taught to even US snipers about blending to environment and how to hide your shooting spot. Häyhä was the first sniper who didn’t have to move too much, since there was no way to see him.
And summer in Finland? No darkness for almost two months, so odds to detect Häyhä would have been even slimmer during summer. 🇫🇮
Thanks for sharing this with us.
Thank you🇫🇮!
You’re welcome 😊
I remember this being my favorite song off of the Coat of Arms album 🙂
Great reaction and congrats on hitting 10k.
FYI Sabatob history dropped a ep for race to the sea so you can finally do one from the new album lol
Thanks Terry. Yes I recorded it already. It will be on Patreon tonight and UA-cam on Saturday.
Can't wait for you to react to Coat Of Arms ! Great video like always !
Thank You
Name is Lauri Törni, later Larry Thorne in US army.
Ah, yes. Thanks
I'm a Finn and I didn't hear about him until through internet memes. Here he is well known but not praised as a "god of war".
We tend to see all of our heroes, nearly every adult in Finland at the time, as equal and own them our respect as they practically gave us our existence.
I'm sure if I dig up, I'll find multiple other ~100 kills counts as russian tactic was just to run against fire.
You pronounce Ä same way as you say A in the word Anger or Bag. Guy in the video butchered his name.
Sorry for butchering his name.
Simo also did not want to be a hero, he kept low profile everywhere.
"I only did what I was ordered to do, like everyone else."
Nice they are good!
These guys do more to our veterans than more in our politicians!! Love them and respect them! And what now happening our naighbor...we all know that we need to prepaire to russian threat!! SLAVA UKRAINI!!!!
Sabaton History has just released their video for The Race to the Sea
I'm uploading my reaction to Patreon right now.
You should check out "Metal Crüe" it's actually about the history of metal music, it's not their best (it was in 06) but it's a fun song that references other bands
Better yet, do the whole metal trilogy. Metal Crüe, Metal Machine, Metal Ripper.
All 3 are on my list
This is my own personal opinion about history every Nation should focus on their own individual history when teaching their citizens because I think it's better for the citizens to know their own country's history more than that of their neighboring countries and if they want to know more about those countries histories they can go look for that themselves
Here's an example they talk about how in America we don't know anything about how much the Russians have struggled during WW2 me personally it makes sense that we don't know much about Russians struggle during WW2 when we were focusing on our own struggles which we would put into our own personal history I think that's something that everybody forgets nowadays is that every nation and every person has their own personal history which everybody Can have a similar experience too but can never truly experience the exact same emotions during that time
@@corseeis482 The problem with the US way of doing it is that since you basically cover nothing about world history and at the same time ingrain in your people that you are always number one, a lot of you think that your history is something special. Your history is not any more special than any other countries. And as in the case with WW2, how many percent of the US population think that it was the US that won the war for the allies? While in reality, it was Russia that by far did the most heavy lifting.
Im very glad you are deciding to wait untill the history episodes drop to cover the songs, but i gotta ask, the songs you covered before we switched to this deep dive format, will you go back to react to the history episodes alone, or have you watched them on your own?
I'm going to redo them as deep dives, using the original videos for that piece.
oversimplified is a good channel to get started with history on UA-cam, its a very popular channel so you should get decent views for your reaction as well.
I suggest you add Into the Fire to the list of Sabaton reactions, it's about the Vietnam War and Napalm a bit
I've done it. It's on my Patreon channel right now
Lauri törni - Larry Thorne 😊
That's it
@@TouchyReactions Hello from Finland 🇫🇮 😊👋
You only have only one song left from the Coat of Arms album: Coat of Arms.
I second this.
🤘😁🤘🇫🇮❤️
This was just skimming the surface of Häyhä (say the As as you would in the word Ham, and you’re golden). Research and be amazed. I’m a Finnish pacifist and even I’ve got a hard-on for Simo. 🇫🇮
🇫🇮👊
Here's a debating question who would win if they were in the same war agianst each other ghost of the trench Francis a native canadian or the white death simo a finnish guy
Great question
Probably depends on the environment. Can't beat the white death in deep snow.
Putin: Finland, if you ally yourself to NATO, you will regret it. Military options are something we will consider.
Simo Häyhä, rising from the dead: BET
Nice
An unnecessary complications. For so long now borderlands lived in peace without any troubles . Open for trade and tourism both ways . This will be more negative development than its worth . What a shame.
I still say Simo although a great soldier who was a great shot, was not too impressive.
Primarily due to the situation.
The majority of his kills where soldiers barely moving if it all out in the open. Easy pickings for any soldier.
The only time he got to show what he could do was when the Russians tried using counter snipers.
Even still, the distances for his sniper duels was always in his advantage before he had anything to do with it. He had the iron sights & his partner had a scope. And you couldn't change the zoom level on those old scopes(have shot with it before. Very, very hard to hit anything inside of 600meters).
Simo was a great sniper. Unfortunately, he was effectively babied through & never got to be the legendary sniper he could have been. He was effectively a level 60 player in a level 15 lobby. He was great, but never got close to his potential.
Simo Häyhä says this is my sin list.
