Most of the remaining "German" soldiers defending Berlin weren't German at all, but members of SS formations recruited abroad. SS Division Viking (from Norway, Denmark, and other Scandinavian countries), and the Balkans division.
Loads of anecdotes about Berliners taking revenge after the war on the Nazi roaming gangs that in the final days executed civilians who refused to fight or were outspoken against the regime. Particularly gruesome story about the hangman beaten taken into an alleyway and beaten to death. The roaming gangs left a bitter bitter taste and revenge was served by many.

I visited Berlin in the summer of 1995. The wall had been down for almost six years. My girlfriend convinced me that we needed to see the Reichstag wrapped in aluminum fabric by the artists Christo and Jean-Claude. We stayed with a friend and her German boyfriend in Kreuzberg, which had been on the East side of the wall. Everywhere we went you could see damage from the siege of the city from fifty years before. Window frames would have bullet pock marks all around them showing where a sniper had hunted and been hunted. There were buildings still standing that had one half simply missing, and the rooms exposed on the destroyed side either exposed or crudely bricked up. All around the Brandenburger Tor and the Reichstag turned into a party at night. There was a huge sense from the Berliners that by cleansing the building, having this art exhibition, and then moving the parliament there for the first time since the war, that they could re-enter the world. Our friends got us to bake bagels and sell them in this carnival while they played klezmer music. A man in the crowd pointed out to me that above the gate of the building it read "Dem Duetchen Volke" - To the German People. "For the first time in it's history those words will be true".
After years I have finally realised this boys parents did not commit suicide but they were executed by those guys leaving the building. One of them used to hang people on lanterns before.
@@ireminsel They were brainwashed groups of volkssturm or ss who used to eliminate all those who didn't want to fight or sacrifice their life for nothing. Many innocent people were executed whis way by fanatics just because they wanted to stay out of war. When allies came to first german towns people hanged on streetlights were a common view allies couldn't believe their eyes. It's also shown as an example in a movie "Fury"
Based on the armbands and pieces of uniforms those men appeared to be SA not volkstrum. And before anyone says the SA were ended with the night of the long knives, Hitler only killed some of the senior leadership but never disbanded the organization. The SA continued to exist right up to the end of the war but had become eclipsed by the SS which absorbed a lot of their members. Since the SA was a Nazi, not state, organization, it makes sense they would be tasked with these duty of eliminating was the Nazis would consider "traitors" (as a side note these groups were called flying court martials)

Downfall Collector's Edition: amzn.to/3X1INXy American superfortresses started using Lake Biwa northeast of Hiroshima as a coastal rendezvous point towards the end of the War. The city's air raid sirens had been sounding false alarms almost every night for weeks. Hiroshima and Kyoto were the only important Japanese cities that hadn't been visited in strength by "Mr B" (America's B-29 bombers). Hiroshima was reserved for a special demonstration and the people waited anxiously. B-29s had started making regular reconnaissance flights and the "yellow-alert" siren had become a morning routine. On the night of 5 August 1945, Hiroshima’s sirens wailed as two hundred B-29s approached the city from the south. People evacuated to their “safe areas” and waited for the napalm firestorm. The terror bombers roared overhead and then passed on heading north. People returned home but another warning wailed soon after midnight. The yellow alert sounded around 7:00 and the all-clear followed as an American reconnaissance plane approached from the south. People headed to work and thousands of school children gathered for morning work details helping to clear fire breaks in the lanes and streets. A lone B-29 passed high overhead at 8:15 and detonated a uranium bomb 1900 feet above the city. Two hundred thousand people were burned, blinded, disembowelled, irradiated and buried in rubble as the city crumbled beneath the nuclear flash, blast and shock waves. A turbulent column of heat, dust and ash rose miles into the sky shrouding the city in darkness. Neighbourhoods and streets were transformed into an unrecognisable wasteland of total destruction. Dazed survivors scrambled over mounds of wreckage and muffled voices screamed from the rubble. Tens of thousands descended on the city’s hospitals and the few remaining medical staff were overwhelmed. ‘More than 80 per cent of the city's doctors and nurses were killed in the explosion, their hospitals levelled or severely damaged. There were few medicines or painkillers. The shockwave tore through the Red Cross Hospital: ceilings and partitions collapsed; windows blew in, showering everyone with glass ... patients ran about screaming.’ Paul Ham, Hiroshima Nagasaki, 371 Ragged, gruesomely injured people filled hospital corridors and crowded the streets where many were vomiting from radiation sickness. Scattered fires grew into a conflagration and the hot air swirled with burning showers of cinders. Panic gripped the city and people herded into the corpse-filled estuarial rivers. Others fled to the blackened parks and huddled alongside the dying as they moaned, "Mizu! Mizu! - Water! Water!” Black radioactive rain fell from the mushroom cloud. Three days later, Mr B detonated a plutonium bomb above the Urakami Christian district of Nagasaki. America was now a nuclear power that ruled the sky and the world was shocked and awed. Britain handed leadership of the global capitalist system to America at the Bretton Woods Conference in 1944 and British imperial sterling was superseded by a truly international world reserve dollar regulated by the IMF and World Bank. Bankrupt Allies, West Germany and Japan fixed the exchange rates of their currencies relative to the US dollar which, in turn, was backed by a mountain of gold. US dollars were then shipped overseas as part of the Marshal Plan funding postwar reconstruction in the shadow of the Cold War. The Soviet Union became a nuclear power in 1949 and, by 1955, both the US and USSR had detonated a hydrogen bomb. Atomic bombs release energy through nuclear fission but thermonuclear weapons are driven by fusion reactions: the process that powers the sun. Hydrogen bombs can produce large multimegaton yields thousands of times more powerful than the "Little Boy" Hiroshima bomb and now represent the prevalent type... America built the first nuclear weapons during World War II and used them against Japan. Today, several nations are nuclear-armed including North Korea, Pakistan, Israel and soon perhaps Iran. The distinctive mushroom cloud of a nuclear explosion lifts fine particles of dust and ash high into the stratosphere blocking light and reddening the rising and setting of the sun. As well as radioactive darkness, a thermonuclear war would also produce huge volumes of ozone-destroying nitric oxide further lowering global temperatures and plunging the planet into an extended nuclear winter.

I cried my eyes out at the final scene. This tragedy: an entire generation was cheated out of their lives by politicians because of an ideology they believed in.
Indeed, an outdated ideology at that. Germany wanted to be friends and allies with Britain yet the British establishment insisted on it's "balance of power" ideology.
I once read in a book on the fall of Berlin that during the chaos of the street fighting a group of Russian soldiers came down a street searching the buildings for German soldiers. In one building they found a Jewish family that had been hidden by a German family throughout the war, in a top floor apartment. The Russians had no interest in the Jews, just German soldiers and so went on their way. After a while a group of German soldiers came down the street and the residents of the building started yelling at them that there were Jews in the building. The soldiers paid no attention, as they were only concerned about avoiding the Russians. I was amazed that, even during the last days of Hitler’s Nazi regime in the midst of Berlin rubble, these Germans could not forget the hatred that had brought them to ruin.
Of course the Soviets didn't bother the Jews, Almost their entire leadership and government was Jewish, Along with the political officers and commanders of the gulags. All over 80% Jewish. The very first thing Stalin did was make anti semitism illegal. By the time Hitler was the leader of a minor political party, The soviets had already murdered 30 million people, Mostly white descendents of ethnic Europeans and Christians. The Bolshevik revolution was entirely funded by Jews and Jews came from all over the world to take part in it.
@ I forgot about the Nazi’s prejudice, greed, jealousy, malice, anger; but yes lack of fuel, materiel, food, munitions, able bodied soldiers, etc. and Hitler’s megalomania to start a war he could not win. But I guess you are referring to something more intangible? But sincerely, please explain what you mean. (Also, although the writer didn’t spell out the point, perhaps the German’s in that building were still afraid of reprisals from the SS that had been hanging deserters and ‘defeatists’ the prior days, though by this time the SS was dead, captured or fleeing, those people probably would not have known that.)
@@fish9905these children had nothing to do with that. They didn't have a choice. They were raised under that fascist regime from their birth onwards, that ideology drilled into their brains like first class math. It was not their decision, nor their fault. You can be angry at a lot of people from that time, but children are not among them.
Rather it was the boy and lady combination that got them both out. He pulled her out of a nasty pickle. Together they'd be let through were alone she wouldn't have stood a chance.
And the German future unknowingly destroyed its-self, watching the last true Germans die in a futile war. From then on the German people would be replaced and destroyed.
As Bob Marley sings : “ there’s war in the East , there’s war in the West , there’s war in the North and there’s war in the South”. Man and war ? bacon and eggs.
A NORTH KOREAN flag? Is there something WRONG with you? Are you a pal of the fat pumpkin-headed sadistic psychopath? Or maybe just a COMMUNIST? If so, then: Communism: a system whereby everyone has a job doing meaningless work, for which they are paid in money which is worth nothing, which they take to spend in shops & stores which don't have anything. Under communism, the only ones who have anything are the rulers, the military & the police, secret & regular. The PEOPLE are reduced to the level of permanently hungry serfs who, if they dare to speak out, are thrown into brutal GULAGS. Communism killed over 100 million people in the 20th century, & it continues to murder people in the 21st.
They were just as barbaric of not more so than the Germans. The Russians pillaged and raped the whole way. Germans had the best treatment by the US and allies on the western front.
When the firs Americans got to Berlin, a few days after its surrender, they commented on the smell of decomposing bodies. Apparently, that smell persisted for months, as it was also noted by others , months after.
That smell was all over cities across Central Europe and especially Soviet Union. 40-50 millions of civilians and military deaths. Western Europe and US hadn't really experience that horrors. The WWII was basically a fight between Germany and its vassals against Soviet Union, all other fronts look like tiny skirmishes compared to scales of battle and genocide. Except, maybe Chinese-Japanese war of WWII
The same remark was made in the TV movie ‘Nuremberg.’ The place where the trial is going to take place is being cleaned up and Jill Hennessy asks an American officer ‘What’s that smell?’ He reply’s its estimated 30,000 bodies are still buried under the rubble.
For good reason. The Russians suffered 100,000 casualties taking the city. To this day, no one is sure how many German military or civilians were killed in the battle.
You never see the effects of shrapnel in films. Grenades go off 2 feet from a soldier, an artillery shell hits 10 feet away, and no one is cut to shreds by the exploding metal shell. The hit on the house in the first scene would have killed anyone within 100 yards, what with the concussion and debris flying about at supersonic speed. 😀
depends on the shell type and measurement even grenades had different uses not all were fragmentation. often times the high explosive rounds were deadly if nearby but if you had cover you wouldnt be as affected.
They don't call artillery the king of the battle field for nothing! Depending on the caliber of the gun 75mm, 105mm, 155mm or bigger the kill radius depending on terrain can be as much as 400 yds. The concussion if close is enough to burst ear drums bloody noses knock senseless or kill. Air burst increases kill radius. At least the movie showed some casualties. What's another misnomer is taking cover behind a block wall or wooden wall or a tree or a single line of sand bags. A battle rifle will easily penetrate these or send off chucks that wound. Cover is your friend. Yet it's all a roll of the dice if your stupid enough to put yourself out there dodging small arms & artillery....
ikr i just love reading about why the Soviets/Germans/Jews are terrible people and why they deserved their respective atrocity and even better there's a dude on another clip from this movie who agreed with the hangings

I lived in Stuttgart in the middle 80’s.. I lived in an old house on the outskirts called hedelfingen. The house owner said we could decorate a room me and my deutsch girlfriend were living in, we started by peeling off old wallpaper, what was under it on wall was German soldiers writings. We called the old women who came over and identified the writings. It was her brother and his crew who manned an 88 right out the house… They were all killed by an American bomber . All died at there post.. The sad thing was the war was over days later.. 2 days later.. In attic was her brothers helmet, luftshuelt, was wrote on it… But what I remember was the smell as we pulled the wallpaper away… the smell of 1945…..🧐
One commented, "we all know what Russian soldiers did to the German women in Berlin." Like any conquering army, rape and pillage is common practice. Their no honor in war. Every conquering army has unclean hands. To think otherwise, it would simply be naiveness 😢. Germany simply suffered from their own misdeeds.
I guess that’s why the Americans always lie about “winning Vietnam”, or making a difference in the Middle East, gotta make sure that narrative doesn’t make them look bad lol
Greatest movie from the side of the Germans I have ever seen...War was hell! Bruno Ganz acted his best int his movie and I have it on DVD....RIP Bruno Ganz.....Peace
An absolutely memorable movie. The acting of Bruno Ganz was amazing. His portrayal was chilling and unforgettable, serving as a stark reminder of the horrors of radicalism and authoritarianism. I hope the new German generation remembers the outcome of the war and makes responsible political decisions, far away from the radical far right that only brought them utter ruin. By understanding the devastating consequences of extremism, societies can prevent the repetition of such tragedies.
I'm thinking the lyncher is with them, and he's just killed the little boys mother and father. Word had probably got back that his father was defeatist, giving what he was telling those children at the flak gun..
Roving gangs of SS and I'm guessing some overzealous Berliner from earlier would have learned the kids parents weren't fighting, therefore they "support the enemy" and were hung for their "cowardice". -.-
My grandad was a german soldier in a recon elite unit, he gained a knight’s cross for bravery, when he was fighting in Stalingrad and suffering his sister was being tortured and killed by the gestapo for complain the price of bread is to high and this is because the war her body was never recovered. 😢😢😢
Can we take a moment to note that Alexandra Lara, who plays Traudl Junge, is the most beautiful woman in the world. Her father was the famous Romanian actor and director Valentin Plătăreanu, so she grew up (in Germany) immersed in a world of acting - reflected here in her mesmerising, gripping performance in Das Untergang. She does actually resemble the young Traudl Junge in appearance. Junge passed away in 2002, aged 81.

The American people will believe the populist felon because they are uneducated and find it easier to believe that a man can solve their problems instead of uniting together and leaving behind the status quo
Churchill was a misanthrope and was behind both the Lusitania story and the prevention of peace negotiations between Poland and Germany. Churchill wanted war, he hated the Germans and people as such. He was a completely disgusting character and without him the war in this form would not have happened at all.
Watch Soviet war movie "Come and see", 1986 , Mosfilm. The most horrible movie in the world. The director was 8 and lived in Stalingrad , when the war started. The scenario was written by Adamovich. He was a partizan of 14 years old. The movie is based on true stories of occupied people of Soviet Belarus. MASTERPIECE.
Actually no, though she didn't realise it at the time. I once read an extract from a memoir written by a German woman whose town fell to the Red Army in 1945. She said that the front-line Soviet troops behaved far better than she'd been led to expect. They were no angels - they stole as a matter of course, and could be brutal if provoked - but they did retain a shred of humanity. The real atrocities, the woman wrote, started when the front-line troops moved on, and the second-line occupying forces arrived.
@@GunggusRama-zo3ly Gentlemen? No. Nice guys? No again. Just a shred of humanity - which is more than could be said of the Party apparatchiks following on behind.
Those Russian boys had every reason to be as vicious as they were. The Germans tore through Russian lines with such violence that it was always going to be a nasty battle.
"Boys"? These were soldiers, many of them in their 30s or 40s. Are you one of these people who slies to the defense of every 20-something lunatic criminal by saying "He's just a boy!"?

Interestingly, this film did not address the violence perpetrated by russians against women in Berlin. There is no mention of the rapes of Berliners by the russians when they took over the city. I believe the screenwriter didn't want to touch on this topic for some reason.
Mostly because this movie was based on Hitler's secretary Tradl Junges point of view and she didn't personally experience harassment at the hands of the Soviets
@@planderlinde1969 I have read articles on the internet that say that Traudl Junge was sexually abused by the Soviets, just like Gerda Christian, who was captured with her in an attic by the Soviets on May 2, 1945, and repeatedly raped in a forest outside Berlin (it is in the Wikipedia entry). I find it unlikely that she was spared from the abuse. The fact is that the film does not address this issue.
Judging by your other comments here, you don’t even care about brutality against women, similar to what the Germans did on the Eastern front. Seems like you want to portray Nazi Germany as unprovoked victims in bad faith.

How'd it go for his mother and sisters?
I visited Berlin in the summer of 1995. The wall had been down for almost six years. My girlfriend convinced me that we needed to see the Reichstag wrapped in aluminum fabric by the artists Christo and Jean-Claude. We stayed with a friend and her German boyfriend in Kreuzberg, which had been on the East side of the wall. Everywhere we went you could see damage from the siege of the city from fifty years before. Window frames would have bullet pock marks all around them showing where a sniper had hunted and been hunted. There were buildings still standing that had one half simply missing, and the rooms exposed on the destroyed side either exposed or crudely bricked up.
All around the Brandenburger Tor and the Reichstag turned into a party at night. There was a huge sense from the Berliners that by cleansing the building, having this art exhibition, and then moving the parliament there for the first time since the war, that they could re-enter the world.
Our friends got us to bake bagels and sell them in this carnival while they played klezmer music. A man in the crowd pointed out to me that above the gate of the building it read "Dem Duetchen Volke" - To the German People. "For the first time in it's history those words will be true".
What a beautiful memory

What kind of monsters these Get and are?
@@ireminsel They were brainwashed groups of volkssturm or ss who used to eliminate all those who didn't want to fight or sacrifice their life for nothing. Many innocent people were executed whis way by fanatics just because they wanted to stay out of war. When allies came to first german towns people hanged on streetlights were a common view allies couldn't believe their eyes. It's also shown as an example in a movie "Fury"
Based on the armbands and pieces of uniforms those men appeared to be SA not volkstrum. And before anyone says the SA were ended with the night of the long knives, Hitler only killed some of the senior leadership but never disbanded the organization. The SA continued to exist right up to the end of the war but had become eclipsed by the SS which absorbed a lot of their members. Since the SA was a Nazi, not state, organization, it makes sense they would be tasked with these duty of eliminating was the Nazis would consider "traitors" (as a side note these groups were called flying court martials)

Downfall Collector's Edition: amzn.to/3X1INXy
American superfortresses started using Lake Biwa northeast of Hiroshima as a coastal rendezvous point towards the end of the War. The city's air raid sirens had been sounding false alarms almost every night for weeks. Hiroshima and Kyoto were the only important Japanese cities that hadn't been visited in strength by "Mr B" (America's B-29 bombers). Hiroshima was reserved for a special demonstration and the people waited anxiously. B-29s had started making regular reconnaissance flights and the "yellow-alert" siren had become a morning routine. On the night of 5 August 1945, Hiroshima’s sirens wailed as two hundred B-29s approached the city from the south. People evacuated to their “safe areas” and waited for the napalm firestorm. The terror bombers roared overhead and then passed on heading north. People returned home but another warning wailed soon after midnight. The yellow alert sounded around 7:00 and the all-clear followed as an American reconnaissance plane approached from the south. People headed to work and thousands of school children gathered for morning work details helping to clear fire breaks in the lanes and streets. A lone B-29 passed high overhead at 8:15 and detonated a uranium bomb 1900 feet above the city. Two hundred thousand people were burned, blinded, disembowelled, irradiated and buried in rubble as the city crumbled beneath the nuclear flash, blast and shock waves. A turbulent column of heat, dust and ash rose miles into the sky shrouding the city in darkness. Neighbourhoods and streets were transformed into an unrecognisable wasteland of total destruction. Dazed survivors scrambled over mounds of wreckage and muffled voices screamed from the rubble. Tens of thousands descended on the city’s hospitals and the few remaining medical staff were overwhelmed.
‘More than 80 per cent of the city's doctors and nurses were killed in the explosion, their hospitals levelled or severely damaged. There were few medicines or painkillers. The shockwave tore through the Red Cross Hospital: ceilings and partitions collapsed; windows blew in, showering everyone with glass ... patients ran about screaming.’ Paul Ham, Hiroshima Nagasaki, 371
Ragged, gruesomely injured people filled hospital corridors and crowded the streets where many were vomiting from radiation sickness. Scattered fires grew into a conflagration and the hot air swirled with burning showers of cinders. Panic gripped the city and people herded into the corpse-filled estuarial rivers. Others fled to the blackened parks and huddled alongside the dying as they moaned, "Mizu! Mizu! - Water! Water!” Black radioactive rain fell from the mushroom cloud. Three days later, Mr B detonated a plutonium bomb above the Urakami Christian district of Nagasaki.
America was now a nuclear power that ruled the sky and the world was shocked and awed. Britain handed leadership of the global capitalist system to America at the Bretton Woods Conference in 1944 and British imperial sterling was superseded by a truly international world reserve dollar regulated by the IMF and World Bank. Bankrupt Allies, West Germany and Japan fixed the exchange rates of their currencies relative to the US dollar which, in turn, was backed by a mountain of gold. US dollars were then shipped overseas as part of the Marshal Plan funding postwar reconstruction in the shadow of the Cold War.
The Soviet Union became a nuclear power in 1949 and, by 1955, both the US and USSR had detonated a hydrogen bomb. Atomic bombs release energy through nuclear fission but thermonuclear weapons are driven by fusion reactions: the process that powers the sun. Hydrogen bombs can produce large multimegaton yields thousands of times more powerful than the "Little Boy" Hiroshima bomb and now represent the prevalent type...
America built the first nuclear weapons during World War II and used them against Japan. Today, several nations are nuclear-armed including North Korea, Pakistan, Israel and soon perhaps Iran. The distinctive mushroom cloud of a nuclear explosion lifts fine particles of dust and ash high into the stratosphere blocking light and reddening the rising and setting of the sun. As well as radioactive darkness, a thermonuclear war would also produce huge volumes of ozone-destroying nitric oxide further lowering global temperatures and plunging the planet into an extended nuclear winter.

Imagine riding that bike through those trees just moments after the end of a 6 year war. Genuinely unthinkable.
I once read in a book on the fall of Berlin that during the chaos of the street fighting a group of Russian soldiers came down a street searching the buildings for German soldiers. In one building they found a Jewish family that had been hidden by a German family throughout the war, in a top floor apartment. The Russians had no interest in the Jews, just German soldiers and so went on their way. After a while a group of German soldiers came down the street and the residents of the building started yelling at them that there were Jews in the building. The soldiers paid no attention, as they were only concerned about avoiding the Russians. I was amazed that, even during the last days of Hitler’s Nazi regime in the midst of Berlin rubble, these Germans could not forget the hatred that had brought them to ruin.
Of course the Soviets didn't bother the Jews, Almost their entire leadership and government was Jewish, Along with the political officers and commanders of the gulags. All over 80% Jewish. The very first thing Stalin did was make anti semitism illegal. By the time Hitler was the leader of a minor political party, The soviets had already murdered 30 million people, Mostly white descendents of ethnic Europeans and Christians. The Bolshevik revolution was entirely funded by Jews and Jews came from all over the world to take part in it.
Survivors who escaped from the Sobibor Concentration Camp spoke of Polish farmers killing escaped Jews found hiding on their land.
It wasnt thier hatred that brought them to ruin, and as long as you think that you can never understand what that era was about
@ I forgot about the Nazi’s prejudice, greed, jealousy, malice, anger; but yes lack of fuel, materiel, food, munitions, able bodied soldiers, etc. and Hitler’s megalomania to start a war he could not win. But I guess you are referring to something more intangible? But sincerely, please explain what you mean.
(Also, although the writer didn’t spell out the point, perhaps the German’s in that building were still afraid of reprisals from the SS that had been hanging deserters and ‘defeatists’ the prior days, though by this time the SS was dead, captured or fleeing, those people probably would not have known that.)

So true…
When the firs Americans got to Berlin, a few days after its surrender, they commented on the smell of decomposing bodies. Apparently, that smell persisted for months, as it was also noted by others , months after.
That smell was all over cities across Central Europe and especially Soviet Union. 40-50 millions of civilians and military deaths. Western Europe and US hadn't really experience that horrors.
The WWII was basically a fight between Germany and its vassals against Soviet Union, all other fronts look like tiny skirmishes compared to scales of battle and genocide.
Except, maybe Chinese-Japanese war of WWII
That smell was all across europe
The same remark was made in the TV movie ‘Nuremberg.’ The place where the trial is going to take place is being cleaned up and Jill Hennessy asks an American officer ‘What’s that smell?’ He reply’s its estimated 30,000 bodies are still buried under the rubble.
@@mrobocop1666 Right!
For good reason. The Russians suffered 100,000 casualties taking the city. To this day, no one is sure how many German military or civilians were killed in the battle.
You never see the effects of shrapnel in films. Grenades go off 2 feet from a soldier, an artillery shell hits 10 feet away, and no one is cut to shreds by the exploding metal shell. The hit on the house in the first scene would have killed anyone within 100 yards, what with the concussion and debris flying about at supersonic speed. 😀
celna uwaga , każde Wojsko jest dobre , ale tylko na defiladach .Los żołnierzy to strach , głód i poniewierka
depends on the shell type and measurement even grenades had different uses not all were fragmentation. often times the high explosive rounds were deadly if nearby but if you had cover you wouldnt be as affected.
@@tehepicduck96 I disagree.
They don't call artillery the king of the battle field for nothing! Depending on the caliber of the gun 75mm, 105mm, 155mm or bigger the kill radius depending on terrain can be as much as 400 yds. The concussion if close is enough to burst ear drums bloody noses knock senseless or kill. Air burst increases kill radius. At least the movie showed some casualties. What's another misnomer is taking cover behind a block wall or wooden wall or a tree or a single line of sand bags. A battle rifle will easily penetrate these or send off chucks that wound. Cover is your friend. Yet it's all a roll of the dice if your stupid enough to put yourself out there dodging small arms & artillery....

It was agreed at the Yalta Conference that the Red Army would be allowed first entry into Berlin. Or so it has been told.
@@aidsskrillex327 completely false. There was no such agreement. Both raced to get there first but americans were slow

This film shows more empathy towards children in conflicts than the german gov has today with children in gaza
Along the movie, both the young boy and the Hitler secretary had their own story paths. In the end, their paths crossed when the boy grabbed the woman's hand and escape the place, even if they don't know each other. Beautiful
" Der Untergang" I saw that movie twice..it's very impressive and sad
Классный фильм. Говорю это как внук солдата прошедшего войну и дошедшего до Вены. К немцам в этом фильме даже какое то уважение испытываешь. Это сильнейшая армия мира которую мы победили. А любимый эпизод это русский солдат который протягивает ей кружку и отпускает. Лицо этого парня это и есть русский народ победитель. Суровый, слегка пьяный и благородный. Эх яблочко😊
Ничего и никогда у россиян не было благородного, это миф для самих же россиян. Для всего мира россиянин это туповатое лицо с пустыми глазами, дебошир, задира и пьяница

What start?
You have to start it right from the defeat of Germany in IIWW, humiliation born out of it alienated the ordinary Germans towards the national or patriotic fuelling (which didn't spare even the working people) and culminated in the rise of rightist forces whose leash put in the hands of Hitler. The rest is history.
Hate has benefitted German bourgeois...and in turn, US & UK fanned the heat wave dreaming about the destruction of USSR.

The officer in the window with he binoculars also stared in the movie Starship troopers in a similar uniform.
Majority of the remaining soldiers in Berlin where foreign division, French and Dutch, the rest where Wehrmacht soldiers from other divisions that were in strongholds outside Berlin that have been pushed into Berlin

The Germans fought against 52 Nations! If Russia fought alone against Germany Russia had 0 Chance!
They got a few miles from Moscow. If they hadn't of turned south to the oilfields, they could of had a chance.
Interestingly, this film did not address the violence perpetrated by russians against women in Berlin. There is no mention of the rapes of Berliners by the russians when they took over the city. I believe the screenwriter didn't want to touch on this topic for some reason.
Mostly because this movie was based on Hitler's secretary Tradl Junges point of view and she didn't personally experience harassment at the hands of the Soviets
@@planderlinde1969 I have read articles on the internet that say that Traudl Junge was sexually abused by the Soviets, just like Gerda Christian, who was captured with her in an attic by the Soviets on May 2, 1945, and repeatedly raped in a forest outside Berlin (it is in the Wikipedia entry). I find it unlikely that she was spared from the abuse. The fact is that the film does not address this issue.
@andreclayton5578 ah yes Wikipedia
Judging by your other comments here, you don’t even care about brutality against women, similar to what the Germans did on the Eastern front. Seems like you want to portray Nazi Germany as unprovoked victims in bad faith.

The people of Nazi Berlin thought it was great when the German armies ravaged other cities. The cities of Poland, Russia and England: to name a few countries.
The Nazis and the Russians were allies and together they tore Poland apart.
