That really made it's way into my little mind. See Dad everyday and help him with his medical regiment. A few days ago he was watching a program about NAM war when I visited, which is odd and rare because he usually turns the channel or turns the tv off when that stuff comes on. I think I have witnessed a 4 decade healing of sorts, the level of pain and rage and uncontrolled emotion has been tempered over time, but I could feel a nervous, taught energy in the room as he watched that program about the war. Like the air was charged.

I am Vietnamese, Do you know how many innocent Vietnamese people were killed in the war of Vietnam and how much blood was shed to make our country independent and free as it is today?
I think people are just sympathyzing for the ones who fell for the brutal traps, a bullet wouldve saved them the pain. Of course we all know the US attacked Vietnam for no real reason.
No wonder my father never spoke about his experience from this war. I wasn't born yet but my mom told us when he got back home, he threw away all his Army gear. She went in the trash and saved his army coat which I have today. The only other story she told us was about an explosion near his mess hall that killed 2 of his friends. I thank God he made it back home with no injuries other than getting malaria. Maybe he will talk about it now but I'm so mad that these governments send our young men to fight these useless wars over nothing!!!
Often veterans dont talk about their war experiences because theyre not like the movies. Typically there are so many troops in any given war zone that only so many combat experiences can be spread to the whole bunch therefore limited stories. Even today only 3% of the US military is combat oriented.
The Viets are expert in their craft, when it comes to ambushing and guerilla warfare in general. Besides history lessons about them, a game called Age of Empires II while playing as the Vietnamese, gave me the idea their military defenses explains a lot
They also made mines against helicopters. A crude four blade propeller made in... bambu, of course, was set in a probable landing zone and attached to a hand grenade ring by a wire. When approaching the ground to land, the downwash of the helicopter main rotor would spin the bambu propeller connected to the grenade, and after a few turns the propeller shaft would spool up the attached wire, pulling the ring and detonating the grenade, hitting the helicopter underside where in a UH-1 the fuel tank was located. I must agree that's quite imaginative indeed!

I was taught many of these traps by the Malaysian Army Comandos during their Combat Tracking course. They haven’t even mentioned the really bad ones in this video.
We had been fighting invasion since BC bro 🤣 Chinese , Mongolian , French , British , American , Cambodian "You sir can come to the moon and go back , i'm not sure about that if you sir come to Vietnam" -Madame Binh😎
Most of the explosives we dig out of the ground in my hometown are bombs, not grenades or mines. Some times in HCMC we even found a huge bombs under the ground when we build a houses, fixing underground's pipes, roads, etc...
As a Vietnamese, I'm proud of my ancestors, the effort, determination and how much they love the country and never give up even when they're horribly tortured really made me respect them. I'm proud of the fighting, the bones and blood sacrificed by my ancestors to give us peace. I love peace. Many people lost their lives protecting their homeland, while the attacking ones also pass away. So why start a war in the beginning? I know there are many reasons leading to a war but this war is kinda pointless. No one benefit. So please keep this world peaceful and don't let wars happen. Vietnam has fought against China after 1000 years of invasion, fought agains the French army, the US invaders and then the Chinese invaders after Americans left. We fought to protect our homeland, not cause war. So why not just live in peace? That way, thousands of soldiers wouldn't have died! P/S: Didn't know our traps could be so deadly and dangerous...
Could you imagine walking around a live "battlefield" with a metal detector? The shell cartridges alone would set the thing off and the enemy could always seed the path with bits of metal to slow you down.
Silly kid, i think they make mine seeking drones with sonar for that. Send it ahead of troop and report back traps. Or if they don't they could, at least that's what I would do.
not to mention a lot of the traps can be made with natural material like woods and vines. they make sure you will never feel safe even with massive advantage of technology.
The video had it wrong, what was referred as the two step snakes was the tiapan vipers confirmed by veterans after the war working along with scientists in the herpetology field. But scary non the less as the venom is confirmed one of the worst land snakes anywhere. Many war vets still had PTSD of these snakes after the war. My uncle's were a few of these men.
We can argue all day about who was right and who was wrong. In the end, you have to remind yourself. It's not the common GI that starts and ends wars. It's the politicians in the government. If the men with suits and ties had to fight the wars they start, there would be no more wars.

My neighbor was drafted in Vietnam, but he injured his ankle in advanced training and was considered unfit for duty and discharged. He was supposed to be a tunnel rat. Probably saved his life. Edit: I originally had the story wrong. I talked with him again and have updated my post to show what really happened.
@@benlost1404 Well, those aren't his exact words, they're mine. I don't know a whole lot of modern military terms, most of my military knowledge is in weaponry and then mostly Roman/early Middle Ages.
@Syed Aman Looks like you got brainwashed too deep in America lol. None of what you just said is true in Vietnam, most of the people here don't even care about the government, most of the young Vietnamese don't even know who is the president and the leader of Vietnam.
The people in the military came from a poor background, mostly farmers, or get sent to do hard labour for the French or the US. They never got proper training. I am surprised of how they pulled it together to current day. They were called: "Quân Đội Nhân Dân Việt Nam", which means the army were from the farmers, I mean people, ain't any specialised personnels whose got training for thousands of dollars. Thank you for the people that fell down to make Vietnam an independent country like today.
Due to the pungy sticks, military members began wearing steeltoed boots. The toe poppers were the next evolution as the round would go through the steeltoed boots, this would cause more damage as the steel would deform making the damage worse
@Bernie Gores To clarify, steel toed boots protect from light falling objects. Anything heavy or with enough force will turn that steel section into a crumpled soda can... with your foot trapped inside it. Likely the 'toe' folds over and severs all toes. I almost learned the hard way working in industrial shops that had grandfathered safety policies from before OSHA 😒
i think this was one of the reason why the US lost to Vietnam. The idea of dying in a pit full of spike in the middle of nowhere, leaving behind your friends and families is really terrible.
The US government lost politically, that’s the only loss. Gen Giáp has said the North was days away from negotiations when Nixon stopped operation Linebacker 1 and 2. They were being bombed into submission. The halt allowed the north to double or triple their AAA defenses. Giáp said he never understood why the US stopped the bombing when victory was at hand.
There's another version of the door trap you didn't mention. This one instead of punji sticks it used the two-step viper. The way my grandfather told me is they would either nail or tie the two step to the top of the doorway that way when a US soldier would open it it would hit the snake angering them and they would immediately start trying to bite the US soldier. My grandfather told me about this as he encountered it on two separate occasions while he was in Vietnam. I found that out after I asked him why he was afraid and cautious to walk through his own door one day. Suffice to say I was a little disturbed by the answer but not surprised.
@@ucAnhNguyen-mx7nm I think there were a few typos you made but I got what you meant. But let's be honest if they tried to get every single trap that the VC made this video wouldn't be 20 minutes it would be 2 hours. Well maybe not that long but you know what I mean. And as much as I personally hate the VC for the trauma they cause my grandfather I still have to give credit for the clever ingenuity they used.
@Ray Jets You act like the troops wanted to be there. This wasn’t Normandy. They didn’t want to be in Vietnam. Attack the leadership of the US, not the Soldiers.
My great uncle Charles (who was my maternal grandmother's brother) fought in the Vietnam war, drafted as so many were. When he came home poor man wasn't the same. We shouldn't have ever gotten involved in that accursed war.
Idk which side was more scarier. On the US side your probably young in a different uncomfortable environment you’ve never been in. You had to watch every tree, every step, and even back packs for traps. On the Viet side Yk your outnumbered and out teched, the US is constantly bombing your home town and one mistake could get you killer by your buddy’s trap

Hornet traps were used during the vietnam war,they were trip wire box traps that released a bunch of hornets,and when the troops started running from the hornets,they would fall into near by pungi traps.

When i went to vietnam on vacation, the tour guide at cu chi tunnels actually said a lot of the traps were used by the VC mainly for hunting food. Particularly the punji stick trap. I suppose it could've served two purposes.

Watching this actually makes more sense as to why the U.S. did the "Desert Storm" in the Middle East because there were no trees for the enemies to use to their benefit. In one of the most recent contact reports by 'Billy' Eduard Albert Meier (BEAM) & the Plejaren, they said that a lot more US soldiers and a lot more Vietnamese people died than anyone realizes. I really encourage many of you to find the contact reports on the Internet. You are missing out on incredibly important information.
not actually, sand can hide people too if they know how. Iraq lost because they tried to draw a defence line against the US with proved to be fatal. Even in jungle, you just dont do that

@@frankfarmer7706 well a really good example is events like My Lai event or things like hill 192. The My Lai event were explained with really softened words. American media did censored things like what american soldiers did to girls as young as 10.
God bless all the Vietnam veterans. On both sides. The people that fight in wars are not the people who make the politics. The man on the other side of your rifle is just trying to get home alive . We should send the politicians on “ and their children of fighting age “ to the front lines. If it means so much to them let them die for it. Stop sending The poor‘s children. Send your own. Then I’ll believe it’s worth fighting for.
So, my folks, that's how Vietnam won the war and how US army can't fight the terrain fights, only airstrikes. Long live Vietnamese folk! Sending you love for your braveness.
No wonder Hollywood movies keep giving the impression that the Vietnam war was nightmarish. Fighting wars head on against people is normal, close combat, aerial etc. But taking every step with fear that you'd be impaled or decapitated is just insane.
Honestly America's involvement in the Vietnam War would had less likely happened if John F Kennedy wasn't assassinated, plus America failed to learn from their own history on how they beat the British military plus America at the time wasn't trained for jungle warfare
11:34 it scares me how i thought of something similar to the toe popper as a child, you rig a revolver cylinder to fire all rounds at once, since its just the cylinder and mechanism it can be as small and readily concealed in many areas, its only gonna shoot once so if rigged up in a ceiling or wall np meed to rig it to survive the shot.

See Dad everyday and help him with his medical regiment. A few days ago he was watching a program about NAM war when I visited, which is odd and rare because he usually turns the channel or turns the tv off when that stuff comes on.
I think I have witnessed a 4 decade healing of sorts, the level of pain and rage and uncontrolled emotion has been tempered over time, but I could feel a nervous, taught energy in the room as he watched that program about the war.
Like the air was charged.
maybe just maybe your old man uses his experience as a veteran in vietnam to excuse his anger problems?
Wouldnt be the first time. Like the myth of vietnam veterans being spat on when they came back to the US. Yep that never occurred.
You should hit him up with these traps on April’s fools day. Put a viper in his cereal box. Rig his fridge with a bomb with urine and feces and shrapnel permantely blinding him.he wouldn’t suspect. Only the vc.
@@titaniusanglesmith9690 Yes it did. Vietnam vets were told to off themselves and were disrespected to levels you can't imagine

No wonder my father never spoke about his experience from this war. I wasn't born yet but my mom told us when he got back home, he threw away all his Army gear. She went in the trash and saved his army coat which I have today. The only other story she told us was about an explosion near his mess hall that killed 2 of his friends. I thank God he made it back home with no injuries other than getting malaria. Maybe he will talk about it now but I'm so mad that these governments send our young men to fight these useless wars over nothing!!!
Often veterans dont talk about their war experiences because theyre not like the movies. Typically there are so many troops in any given war zone that only so many combat experiences can be spread to the whole bunch therefore limited stories. Even today only 3% of the US military is combat oriented.
your government and weapon industry owner want money (oils, use backlog weapon in ww2 and make vietnam to a backyard for money) Never nothing
The Viets are expert in their craft, when it comes to ambushing and guerilla warfare in general. Besides history lessons about them, a game called Age of Empires II while playing as the Vietnamese, gave me the idea their military defenses explains a lot

They also made mines against helicopters. A crude four blade propeller made in... bambu, of course, was set in a probable landing zone and attached to a hand grenade ring by a wire. When approaching the ground to land, the downwash of the helicopter main rotor would spin the bambu propeller connected to the grenade, and after a few turns the propeller shaft would spool up the attached wire, pulling the ring and detonating the grenade, hitting the helicopter underside where in a UH-1 the fuel tank was located. I must agree that's quite imaginative indeed!

Most of the explosives we dig out of the ground in my hometown are bombs, not grenades or mines. Some times in HCMC we even found a huge bombs under the ground when we build a houses, fixing underground's pipes, roads, etc...
As a Vietnamese, I'm proud of my ancestors, the effort, determination and how much they love the country and never give up even when they're horribly tortured really made me respect them.
I'm proud of the fighting, the bones and blood sacrificed by my ancestors to give us peace. I love peace. Many people lost their lives protecting their homeland, while the attacking ones also pass away. So why start a war in the beginning? I know there are many reasons leading to a war but this war is kinda pointless. No one benefit. So please keep this world peaceful and don't let wars happen.
Vietnam has fought against China after 1000 years of invasion, fought agains the French army, the US invaders and then the Chinese invaders after Americans left. We fought to protect our homeland, not cause war. So why not just live in peace? That way, thousands of soldiers wouldn't have died!
P/S: Didn't know our traps could be so deadly and dangerous...
I agreed with you
Could you imagine walking around a live "battlefield" with a metal detector? The shell cartridges alone would set the thing off and the enemy could always seed the path with bits of metal to slow you down.
Silly kid, i think they make mine seeking drones with sonar for that. Send it ahead of troop and report back traps. Or if they don't they could, at least that's what I would do.

Lol
The video had it wrong, what was referred as the two step snakes was the tiapan vipers confirmed by veterans after the war working along with scientists in the herpetology field. But scary non the less as the venom is confirmed one of the worst land snakes anywhere. Many war vets still had PTSD of these snakes after the war. My uncle's were a few of these men.

We can argue all day about who was right and who was wrong. In the end, you have to remind yourself. It's not the common GI that starts and ends wars. It's the politicians in the government.
If the men with suits and ties had to fight the wars they start, there would be no more wars.

The people in the military came from a poor background, mostly farmers, or get sent to do hard labour for the French or the US. They never got proper training. I am surprised of how they pulled it together to current day. They were called: "Quân Đội Nhân Dân Việt Nam", which means the army were from the farmers, I mean people, ain't any specialised personnels whose got training for thousands of dollars.

Due to the pungy sticks, military members began wearing steeltoed boots. The toe poppers were the next evolution as the round would go through the steeltoed boots, this would cause more damage as the steel would deform making the damage worse
@Bernie Gores In what way?
@Bernie Gores To clarify, steel toed boots protect from light falling objects. Anything heavy or with enough force will turn that steel section into a crumpled soda can... with your foot trapped inside it.
Likely the 'toe' folds over and severs all toes. I almost learned the hard way working in industrial shops that had grandfathered safety policies from before OSHA 😒
My uncle was a veteran of Vietnam and he agreed he saw many deaths by the traps
i think this was one of the reason why the US lost to Vietnam. The idea of dying in a pit full of spike in the middle of nowhere, leaving behind your friends and families is really terrible.
The US government lost politically, that’s the only loss. Gen Giáp has said the North was days away from negotiations when Nixon stopped operation Linebacker 1 and 2. They were being bombed into submission. The halt allowed the north to double or triple their AAA defenses. Giáp said he never understood why the US stopped the bombing when victory was at hand.
I hope humans will one day use their creativity to help each other instead of destroying each other
There's another version of the door trap you didn't mention. This one instead of punji sticks it used the two-step viper. The way my grandfather told me is they would either nail or tie the two step to the top of the doorway that way when a US soldier would open it it would hit the snake angering them and they would immediately start trying to bite the US soldier. My grandfather told me about this as he encountered it on two separate occasions while he was in Vietnam. I found that out after I asked him why he was afraid and cautious to walk through his own door one day. Suffice to say I was a little disturbed by the answer but not surprised.
There's 3 more booge trap that they didn't told about was door hole trap, fire oil door trap and the double foot smuch trap
@@ucAnhNguyen-mx7nm I think there were a few typos you made but I got what you meant.

Watching this actually makes more sense as to why the U.S. did the "Desert Storm" in the Middle East because there were no trees for the enemies to use to their benefit. In one of the most recent contact reports by 'Billy' Eduard Albert Meier (BEAM) & the Plejaren, they said that a lot more US soldiers and a lot more Vietnamese people died than anyone realizes. I really encourage many of you to find the contact reports on the Internet. You are missing out on incredibly important information.
