@Jace James nice

Fun fact: George Lucas is a fan of these stories and movies about the Allied air campaign in WWII. He was inspired by The Dam Busters to create the Death Star trench run in Star Wars: A New Hope.
Came to comment about this. Beat me to it.
Yes and he actually lifted a lot of scene verbatim from the Dambusters movie into A New Hope
Beat me to it
Thanks for the fun fact
Thank you for this
Quick note: Those dams cost a lot to repair and took a lot of men to rebuild em also lots of factories below the dams were damaged, the germans had to take a lot of time resources they just didn't have much of. And the fact that they did repair it showed how important does dams were. Also, a few months of a lot less power is kind of a big deal.
Yeah A blackout for me is already bad
(especially at night) since there's no heat or AC
And Imagine that for months?
yeah you can understand why they targeted it
de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C3%B6hnekatastrophe
I am not sure if that was worth it
@@Feroce no, I mean bombing military targets or military production would have not been such a waste of resources
@@seantaggart7382 1. I feel bad for you, blackouts suck,
2. Thanks for the reminder, the german citizens really started to distrust and doubt the government, these were people just more brainwashed and this event broke it a bit.
@@Feroce Agreed war created more dead and sad then heroes, it really is bad.
Oh this is what my math teacher meant when she said you would use this one day. Having to figure out how to skip a barrel on water, The amount of backspin will need, The height of which it will drop, the distance it will travel, The angle of the spotlights to calculate the distance above the water, The amount of explosives needed to take out the dam, The amount of courage men need to do this sort of thing!
Maths, unless you have a lisp.
I swear every single animation gets better and better
You dam right
Ah ah
I agree
They definitely do man. Im sure its always been the aim. Whats impressive to me is how quickly the animation has improved
yeah, from 2d animation to untitled goose game graphic
yep
Imagine what the flak gunners were thinking

I love you
oh lol I didn’t know you liked these videos your videos are hella funny lol
This is one of the better explanations, but it still contains some errors.
1. The angled sight was provided, but most of the bomb aimers gave up on it and scratched marks onto the plexiglass instead.
2. It was the bomb aimer who "dropped" the bomb, not the pilot.
3. The bombs sank a good deal deeper than the animation shows. They were depth charges triggered by depth, and the raid was timed for when the reservoirs were at maximum capacity, so that the depth and water pressure against the dam surface were maximised.
Thanks for the extra info
My info says the bombs were set to explode at 30 feet depth.
Guy Gibson was only 23 years old when he led this raid. I turned 23 this year and haven’t accomplished anything at this magnitude. They truly are the greatest generation.
23 I’m already many award winners and mvps but this accomplishment is greater than anyone
"who you gonna call?"

There is something strange,in the german hood

As an Aussie I have to admit I didn't know there were Australian pilots involved in this famous moment. Thanks so much for providing such entertaining videos.
That's a shame but I wouldn't blame myself. The good news is that things are changing. We are becoming more aware of the vital role our servicemen and women have played in all the major wars since 1900.
Watch the film, mate! Help from Aussies, Kiwis, and Candians in particular was critical to RAF. We also had escaped Polish, Czech forces helping us in Battle of Britain - and that's another film you need to watch!
Read the book and find out.
It was never a secret... But the commonwealth rarely celebrates it's achievements... for there is nothing truly to celebrate about war.
The old films and books told the tales but it was down to individuals to chose to read or watch them.
Let's be honest you were more or less still Brits back then.
My great-granduncle was a pilot of one of the planes on the Dambusters. He even wrote a book titled "Bomb doors open" It's so cool to know that I am related to one of the legendary people who took part in this mission.
Tell us his name.
For who doesn’t know these bombs were made by a civilian when he realized his barrels were able to keep bouncing on water if its spinning at high speeds he shared his dam busting idea with the military.
That won't happen in today's climate!
So un civilised
Wow cool
Isn't that how most British war inventions were made?
@@jamesshaw3500 "That won't happen in to day's climate!"
Yeah, you'd bloody hope we don't have to go through another WWII this century! Wait... are you saying it's bad that people don't build bombs in their sheds for the empire?
*God "Dam" Those "Busters" Were Badass For Busting Those Dams.*
You beat me by 3 seconds
“Damnit”, your puns are so bad.
You are really "RUSSIAN" those puns out XD
WHO YOU GONNA CALL
Im "hungary" tho.
Wait theres norway theres food in the fridge.
well-
Props to the engineers who made the dam
It did not fall in a single hit
You had to get it EXACTLY right... in the film, Barnes Wallace explains that any water between bomb and dam will cushion the detonation. IF the bomb is against the wall, however, the water works the other way and magnifies the destructive effect. Hence the need for the bomb to skip over the torpedo net, hit the dam, sink AGAINST THE WALL, and detonate at 30ft below surface..... Oh gosh; I've watched the film too often, haven't I?
@@mikethecabbie8476 ha, I have a joke about the film, but if i said it I would be murdered,let's just say it involves a certain dog....
I have a question
Why are you guys sooo underated??🤔
This actually inspired the trench run on the Death Star in Star Wars
But when other media depicts something similiar they'd call it a bunch of copycats acting like Star Wars is original
Yes, though technically the film did, rather than the event.
Luke: Lining up the targeting computer then turns it off
Dam busters: going back to basics, lights and distance measure
Just goes to show how far away from thinking for ourselves. These blokes just went, " need a targeting device ...... fark it two sticks and a button hole works fine".
**boy skips stone on a river**
churchill : *insteresting*
When I was in second grade I lived in Germany and we went on a several day field trip to the area. We saw the Möhne dam and they explained this to us and showed us a video of how it worked in the museum there (I think). Totally over my head at the time, of course, but I always remembered snippets of the concept so this was really cool to see pop up in my feed!
Can we have a moment of silence for those who were lost in war. Allie or Axis let’s honor them.
@@crystxlzx6442 That goes without saying.
Legos and Weather Videos Thank you! Many only say that the allies should be honored or so. The reason why it feels better to read this for me is that my great grandpa was an gunner on Stab 1/NJG4(Ju 88G or Bf 110G). He died on the 13th September while he got in a dogfight with a british nightfighter. All four on the aircraft died. My great grandpa died from impact on ground...
Finland was a semi-axi country. Im from Finland :l
@@Entity282 Would you like to play war thunder Germany ground forces 4.3 with me? Kind of bored right now.
@@Entity282 that's because a lot of people think that all Germans were Nazi party members, while we know that is not the case.
I did a VR experience with this, it was very epic
Seen two Lancaster’s up close In motat in Auckland g for George at Australian war museum In Canberra and I also went to see an exhibit on the dam busters in the teauwamutu awsome Exhibits
That's why i like VR
It's amazing experiences that can allow us to explore the world
Germany: NOOO, YOU CAN'T DESTROY OUR DAMS
Britain: Haha barrel go *poing poing BOOM*
George Lucas: This is about to start my whole carrier
Lmao

That
Fun fact.....the 1953 movie of the raid the weapon was still classified as top secret so the weapon was portrayed as spherical in shape
RAF was one of the bravest air forces not discussed to that much extent,though they have hundreds of brave tales to tell. Good job Yarnhub! Salute to the British War effort against Nazis. Love from India mates! By India, I also wanna say Wing Commander Gibson was born in Shimla which is India during the time of British rule
Quite a few men named Singh have won the Victoria Cross. It is a name famous for bravery.
@@colindale5001 oh yes, a lot of soldiers from the British Indian Army's Sikh, Gurkha and Rajput Battalions have shown exceptional bravery in combat pre independence of India. The post independence army is as brave and skilled as well
Petition for Yarnhub to make a video on the "Battle of Osoweic Fortress" or better known as the ;
"ATTACK OF THE DEAD MEN"
Osowiec then and again
@Wesley Maxfield attack of the dead hundred men
@PBJMan hundred men, charge again , die again
Oh you mean ATTACK OF THE DEAD RUSSIANS.
I'll pay respect to you
Lmao we need another Sabaton collab
I regularly go for a walk on the Möhne dam. Your story telling gives me goose bumps. Feeling the history behind it.
Brave, brave men.
And this telling of their heroism is wonderful.
I just smiled like a child and went
‘Yaaa, yaaaaa!’
"Hahaha looks..! they mistaken dropping a barrel instead of bomb"
Said unknown enemy, second before disaster
Yarnhub and oversimplified are the best history channel
Thank you for acknowledging the Aussies in this
I clicked so quickly as Guderian went trough Ardennes.
Not as fast as The French surrendering
You had 18 days you know, Chasseur Ardennais, Resistand bite
I live in the near of the Möhne Dam and my Parents said to me that the Dam Busters crashed the Dam and they destructed it and then a whole Village was destroyed. Its pretty cool you made that because that is an side that not much say. Thanks for the Good Video Keep it up!
Cool ich lebe auch nur so 20min entfernt xD
Ich auch! Die Möhnesee ist aber auch super schön. Auch die Fähre darauf.
Man sieht auch in Fröndenberg, in der Nähe, das das Dach einer damals großen Papierfabrik einfach weg ist. Das Wasser hatte das Dach mitgerissen... Heute ist das ein Kettenschmiedenmuseum.
woah did you see the tallboys the ones who drop the barrels
Great animation. But there's a couple of factual errors. There was no anti-aircraft batteries at the Eder. Its difficult geography left the Germans to conclude that was protection enough, and they didn't install any flak. And the Sorpe was an earth bank dam, and had to be attacked parallel to the dam wall (not perpendicular) so there was no bounce at that dam, but otherwise, top class work guys.
I await the Sabaton song and subsequent video! 😉🤘
Not a single word about the 1500 civilians who lost their lives in the floods 80 years ago.
Well no more dams today folks , contact our regiment to recive a free barrel pieces and a water fountain plus waterfall
*dam has left the chat*
*dam buster has entered the chat*
Damn, that’s a good joke
I get it
**opening music for ghost busters**
"Theres somethin strange... in the neighbour hood. who you gonna call?"
"Dam Busters!"
The uncle of my grandfather was one of the Flakguys on the Möhne dam. He died
I must admit, that the mix of the animation, history and music used in this video is really good. It gives a "dramatic feeling" and makes the spectator get hooked in the video..
Thank You again Yarnhub, for making another amazing video!
The Lancasters send their regards
I'm Australian and I'm proud to see two Aussies in a legendary story
This channel I think epitomises everything that we love to learn about history. The detail, the use of past photographs and audio files. The narration is gentle and acts like a smooth finish to an already perfection of a recipe. It's a joy to watch these videos. History channel and discovery can learn alot.
Wow, thank you!
Newton: Apple falls on his head
RAF: Skips rocks
Last time someone called me by that name I had a baby 9 months later.
Much love, your friends at Rev Media!!
Speaking of the Dambusters, there is a really good book going into detail about the Dambusters called The Lancaster and the Tirpitz, authored by Tony Iveson, a Squadron leader in the Dambusters Really recommend it, A great book
Edit: Tony was the Squadron leader of the 617 squadron , Guy Gibson was a Wing Commander, sadly he died flying a mosquito later in war. Tony did survive and became a last witness(a person that had experienced fighting in a Lancaster before) and paired up with Brain Milton, a writer on the 70th anniversary to write this amazing book. It also has a special section where they talked about sinking the German army’s biggest battleships at that time, the sister ship of Bismark the Tirpitz
I was looking into Airfix's "The Dambusters 617
" 1:72 model thinking about buying it, now I will definitely do!
Great video as always.
Last time i was this early Germany still had a dam
I just want to say that I love the type of story telling it almost makes so you feel like your there
Let’s remember these people who risked their lives for us.
The brave men who flew that day also inspired the trench run in Star Wars in 1977
The Dam Busters, The Doolittle Raid and the Memphis Belle are the probably the most famous Flying missions of the entire Second World War. Could you all cover the Doolittle Raid?
no
@@pluslplusratio9273 understandable, have a nice day
Polesti raid
I will raise you a raid by canoe. Operation Jaywick
dont forget the
Enola Gay and Bockscar
Germans be like: Well "dam"
Ok listen
Face the wall, Bitte.
Take my like and go.
This is such an underrated, but beautifully captivating history channel. I greatly appreciate all of the work you have put into making all of these videos. The animation and storytelling are beautiful. Thank you for making these videos!
The last Survivor of the raid “Johnny” Johnson aged 101, has unfortunately passed on today
This channel is so underrated.
Yay heart
Its not underrated, people just dont have the mind to understand how good this channel is
in future, our yarnhub is going to be referred in the history classes for his dedication of accurate visual history telling
_"If there's something strange, in your river banks, who you gonna call? Dam Busters!"_
Brave brave men, what else can you say? I'm so proud of my country for doing the right thing during those dark times.
The dambusters should get a 'GOD DAM' Sabaton song
Subscribing to this channel was one of my greatest choices in life
Peter Jackson has been planning on making a new Dam Busters movie since 2006. He’s co-producing it with Sir David Frost, while Christian Rivers will direct it. And Stephen Fry will write the script. They also got some technical advice from Les Murno, the last living Dam Buster before he died in 2015.
This is such a good overview of the raid and really well animated. I’ve been reading a lot of books on the raid and 617 Squadron and this visualisation has been really helpful
Since you guys did the Dam Busters, I have another video idea: make a video on the three RAF Gloster Gladiator fighter aircraft that defended the skies of Malta during the Seige of Malta. They were called 'Faith', 'Hope' and 'Charity'.
The attention to detail in these videos never ceases to amaze me! Keep up the amazing work guys!
Bombadier: what is our target today?
Pilot: *whispers in bombadiers ear*
Bombadier: Dam.
As always, Yarnhub doesn't fail to give chills. I also loved the detail given to the faces, with jawlines and eye color.
That was a great movie
My favorite story from WW2
I really enjoyed this video. I liked how you named the soldiers, the animation that went along with it, and the great to-the-point writing. Very well done!
"To Live Eternally Skybound The Roam" ~Sabaton
Dang, RAF skips explosive rocks with aircrafts.
The Texture is Outstanding Here !
(Especially The Human Models And Faces)
There's a dam in England called Derwent dam where they practiced their low 60ft altitude flying, so they did have some preparation and practiced dummy bombs so they had some thought of what they were doing
I smile when you say ''The team is going to be famous to the name The dam busters'' this is my favorite part
*fun fact: the bouncing dam bomb was made at the NPL, National Physics Laboratory* 🧪 🧫 🔬
This channel is sooooo quick at improving
This story partly inspired the Trench Run in Star Wars A New Hope.
Every time, the animation gets better
I am glad your channel has been growing quickly. Of all the youtube channels, this one probably deserves every one of its subscribers simply due to the sheer quality of the work. I genuinely hope you can keep it up with these amazing stories. I'm rooting for you!

Amazing animation. This channel is getting better and better in every video.
Yeah
Great respect for animating this in Unreal!
Yet another incredible War Story shared with us by the fantastic team at YarnHub, thank you so much guys, absolutely stunning work! You do the individuals you represent with each and every tale told incredibly proud.
You Deserve more than 1 Million Subs. These Animations are Beautiful, and Narration? Bravo Yarn Hub!
only one inconsistency: the eder was undefended. even so, it was a damn good animation.
The force is strong with Lt. Maltby
Why is this channel under-rated...
this is the best visual history channel in my opinion..
You guys deserve as much recognition as kurzgesagt
You need to do another sabaton crossover and first
Im first
@@evosagara nein
@@nyxaerospace4319 you’re not first
@@evosagara you’re not first
My mistake evo you’re first
i like the bomber animation ngl the rotors looks real awesome
346, brown low martins moustache made all the difference, precision
Sad truth: many of the crew who survived this mission went on to die a couple months later, and even more before the end of the war. Maltby and his crew, the ones who breached the mohne, died 4 months later after a mysterious collision over the North Sea. His body was the only one found afterwards. Likewise, Gibson died before the end of the war also in mysterious circumstances. Most of them were in their mid to early twenties... scary to think.
What was the mysterious circumstance???
Fun fact: I live in the town where guy Gibson crashed his mosquito at Steenbergen.
I’ve seen his grave and everything..
Cool
The Dam Busters who Destory dams day and night for operation they Destory dam Buster's with more effort wonderful Animation & Tribute to the Dam Busters 👍👍👍👍👍
This channel deserves more attention they have amazing videos and the animation just gets better and better every time
