Kind of like how one of Yamato's escorts _Suzutsuki_ managed to survive Yamato's final mission with her bow blown off: she sailed back to port in reverse.
Kinda reminds me of that scene in Armageddon. "This is how we fix problem in Soviet Navy, because I don't want to stay here anymore! I..." *whack whack whack* "Finally! Now we can go home!"
Really late here, but this story is true: The Gnevny-class destroyer Bezposhchadny (Merciless), built in Sevastopol, was stationed in the Black Sea, and lost her bow to a Stuka attack. She would later be sunk by (different) Stukas 6 October 1943: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gnevny-class_destroyer
Greek destroyer Adrias, a true story! struck a mine. The explosion tore her bow off,despite that, took on the survivors of Hurwort which also struck a mine and sunk,,sailed 730 nautical miles (1,350 km) ,of which 300 were within the range of Luftwaffe's,and she managed to reach Alexandria! check it out here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_destroyer_Adrias_(L67) και αντε γεια! :P
This story really happened September, 22, 1941. There is not much information available on the English Internet, but I've managed to find some information in Russian (if you manage to understand). This is the book written by the contemporaries: books.google.ru/books?id=lqBOCwAAQBAJ&pg=PT201&lpg=PT201&dq=%D0%92%D0%BB%D0%B0%D0%B4%D0%B8%D0%BC%D0%B8%D1%80+%D0%A1%D0%B5%D1%85%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B0%D1%88%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%BB%D0%B8+%D0%91%D0%B5%D1%81%D0%BF%D0%BE%D1%89%D0%B0%D0%B4%D0%BD%D1%8B%D0%B9&source=bl&ots=VgmGJFFwOy&sig=ACfU3U1wjZlfzv2ZObcF8UhK5C5cR-TFyg&hl=ru&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiCu-SG8NPlAhU6wcQBHR5qACcQ6AEwBXoECBEQAQ#v=onepage&q=%D0%92%D0%BB%D0%B0%D0%B4%D0%B8%D0%BC%D0%B8%D1%80%20%D0%A1%D0%B5%D1%85%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B0%D1%88%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%BB%D0%B8%20%D0%91%D0%B5%D1%81%D0%BF%D0%BE%D1%89%D0%B0%D0%B4%D0%BD%D1%8B%D0%B9&f=false Some data from the Black Sea Fleet Info Portal: www.kchf.ru/ship/esminets/besposhadniy.htm And some data on the main acting person, Vladimir Sekhniashvili: k-lvk.livejournal.com/184430.html forum.patriotcenter.ru/index.php?topic=83720.0 I know it's all in Russian but you still can use Google Translate or similar instruments to understand the plot. So, eventually this appears to be an original story and not a borrowing from the Greek one. Hope it'll clarify anything three years after the initial argument!
Yeah, I'd appreciate either a warning beforehand that it is a made up story or if it is not: sources provided please. A ship with no prow sinks faster than a mafia informant at the annual concrete boots festival.
the broken bow section was probably creating drag and risked flooding and taking the ship down with it, by cutting it off they probably saved the loss of a destroyer and potential crew.
I can't find any information about anything like this ever happening on google. Anyone have any source for this story? If not then this is just a fairy tale.
+IncertiOrdinis There are only two resemblances: the time period and bow destroyed. Not russian ship, did not get attacked by swarms of Stukas, survive through a miracle, have a lone sailor with an axe chop through hardened steel hanging from a rope in a storm.
that's the closest true story i know of,survived through a miracle when struck a mine, and sailed 730nm without a bow,in winter seas with its own power. if this is not also a true story but a fairy tale as you said, maybe it's based on it, with some salt and pepper added to make it more hollywood like,to show to us that Russians are as badasses as Americans are. if it is a true story,dont forget that things that happen in real life can be beyond anyones imagination! lot's of people from every country that lived that time period 1rst hand, made some pretty mindblowing heroic things. now,swinging arround tied on a rope in rough seas and try to chop somthing with an axe without bouncing yourself on the ship's hull its a bit...but you know, maybe Mythbusters could enlighten us!
Yes, that is true. Sometimes life beats the fairy tale :) But in this case it is stealing the original greek story, remaking 98% of it and adding Soviet toughness and glory to it.. And then calling it "actual naval stories" without a single reference to any of this ever happening. That is deceptive and shady as fuck. Why not just make the greek story exactly like it happened? Is that not a good enough story? Is it a coincidence that they, being a Russian studio, stole a piece of the greek story and added all that bravado and gave Soviet motherland the glory for it with fake names, fake stories/heroics, fictive medals being handed out and then "omg Soviet heroic country #1"? I mean, you are on point with heroic things happening. Just open a book and read about the para drops in for example Operation Market Garden, and you will find thousands of these crazy stories among the medal citations. Or battle of Kursk/Stalingrad/Finland if you want to find Soviet stories. Why make stuff up and steal the basic idea from the Greek? Why not just make a heroic tale that actually existed? Or the really epic hillarious real but totally unbelievable tale of the Naval Battle of Tsushima, Russia vs Japan.
I'm italian, i'm still waiting: in wot Italy exist only with a weapon 2 cm Breda (i) and so in wow with the 100mm dp on soviet cruisers, and we had an army an a navy a little bigger than yours but wg doesn't care about it
Zoltán Vári I know, we had only several destroyers and submarines. However, WG added one Polish premium ship, so now there are actual chances for a Romanian premium ship.
Lorenzo Nestori I totally agree with you. The Italian tech tree should be a mandatory addition to Wowp! However, it should come only after the British tree, as it was supposed to exist way before the mostly copy-pasted and paper Russian tech tree. The British navy was actually extremely important, designing and building ships for Italy, Russia, America etc. and having its own powerful one. About Italy, its navy wasn't small at all, having many war ships and even several dreadnoughts (that were all sunk in one day, unfortunately), but it had, so that tells a lot about Italy's relevancy in Wowp. Now about Romania, I wasn't talking about a full tech tree because we had a small navy that was mainly meant for defensive purposes; however, as they've added the premium Polish ship, there are now chances for a Romanian premium and it'd be nice to have at least one...
James Hardy no its actually true. Look at the Gnevny Class destroyers on wikipedia (the ship at the bottom i think). This stoey actually happened at least partially like this
Can we please have better map rotation and some new maps? im so sick of playing the same map back to back. I will unistall my WOT client and not recommend it to anyone and i have a bunch of friends who play and i spend alot on the game
Kind of like how one of Yamato's escorts _Suzutsuki_ managed to survive Yamato's final mission with her bow blown off: she sailed back to port in reverse.
But hardly anyone would speak of it, since she didn't serve in the allies. #smh
True
USS Pittsburgh did a similar thing when hers did the same
In Soviet Russia Men fix ship by cutting bow off with Axe
Da comrade!!
And…
Ok
Russian axes are very stronk
seth federoff he was georgian
Wargaming > History Channel
They mostly tell you about animals mating useless discoverys and america. Which is why i dont watch history channels
The animation is so great, and the stories fascinating please throw some more at us !
what a guy it was to get that thought through his head: Imma cut this damn bow with my damn axe!
He was Georgian!!
in soviet we cut ship bow using an axe
IN SOVIET RUSSIA AXE ARE STRONKER THEN SHIT (Oops, ship*) STEEL
Ok
He was Georgian!!!
this cool
Kinda reminds me of that scene in Armageddon.
"This is how we fix problem in Soviet Navy, because I don't want to stay here anymore! I..." *whack whack whack* "Finally! Now we can go home!"
This sounds like a propaganda film back from 1943... our brave troops are fighting the fascist scum on all fronts, we need your contribution!
Don't worry Soviet Destroyer so strong guy with ax can cut in half.
Brilliant!!! Please make more.Love the art and the story telling.Keep up the great work:)
In America ship cut you, in soviet Russia. YOU CUT SHIP!!
A Soviet Navy servicemember, awarded with a US medal?!
Now, that must be extra-rare.
He was Georgian!!!
@@lukagoginashvili8611 weird because his name is russian
@@michaelbooster2 he Means Georgia in Caucasus Region South of russia North of Iran East of Turkey.
That turned out better than I expected.
Yup
lul when you're holding onto the battle by 10 hitpoints
In Soviet Russia, axe chop steel

Will there be more of this kind of videos???I love it!!
That was more intriguing than I first anticipated!
yet no mention of The Sinking of the Wilhem Gustloff
I'd imagine those animation with the fighter planes and such would be so cool in 3d
Schön das man mit einer Axt auch was nützliches machen kann... -Als damit in nem Zug rumzurennen...
I'll like to have comic's like that
Yeah, and at least something aside from Russian.
Greek destroyer Adrias,
a true story! struck a mine. The explosion tore her bow off,despite that, took on the survivors of Hurwort which also struck a mine and sunk,,sailed 730 nautical miles (1,350 km) ,of which 300 were within the range of Luftwaffe's,and she managed to reach Alexandria!

What about an episode of the drunken sailors of Pola?
The first sound in background is for me familliar, but I forgot name. >.
*WE* SAWED THIS BOAT IN HALF
They are called Stukas
Videogame Matt but Junkers is the creator. Junkers Stukas.
Hey Wargaming, got any sources on that information? I'd like to give it a good read.
Yeah, I'd appreciate either a warning beforehand that it is a made up story or if it is not: sources provided please. A ship with no prow sinks faster than a mafia informant at the annual concrete boots festival.
+Garakh There are numerous cases of ships sailing without a bow. e.g., USS Washington, IJN Suzutsuki
Increible como un hombre corto con un hacha un barco!
vladimir sekhniashvili is from georgia ;)
like Stalin
Well done!
The hull is pretty solid but they can fix it!
WOW Amazing pro.
Nice
HAHA I GET IT CHOPPY SEAS LIKE CHOPPING WITH AN AXE

That’s actually a Chinese destroyer
what was the point of chopping it? i didn't understand much of it because of the pictures.
the broken bow section was probably creating drag and risked flooding and taking the ship down with it, by cutting it off they probably saved the loss of a destroyer and potential crew.
I heard this story before
Where you heard that before
Oh no......
so if i find the sunken part of that ship will i become famous? he hue hue

+IncertiOrdinis That is a greek ship called Αδρίας that ran aground in the 2nd world war and has nothing to do with this.
+IncertiOrdinis There are only two resemblances: the time period and bow destroyed. Not russian ship, did not get attacked by swarms of Stukas, survive through a miracle, have a lone sailor with an axe chop through hardened steel hanging from a rope in a storm.
that's the closest true story i know of,survived through a miracle when struck a mine, and sailed 730nm without a bow,in winter seas with its own power.
if this is not also a true story but a fairy tale as you said, maybe it's based on it, with some salt and pepper added to make it more hollywood like,to show to us that Russians are as badasses as Americans are.
if it is a true story,dont forget that things that happen in real life can be beyond anyones imagination!
lot's of people from every country that lived that time period 1rst hand, made some pretty mindblowing heroic things.
now,swinging arround tied on a rope in rough seas and try to chop somthing with an axe without bouncing yourself on the ship's hull its a bit...but you know, maybe Mythbusters could enlighten us!

"German and Romanian troops". Yay, Romania is mentioned for the first damn time in Wowp...
WoWs. Romania's naval forces were..not that important.
I'm italian, i'm still waiting: in wot Italy exist only with a weapon 2 cm Breda (i) and so in wow with the 100mm dp on soviet cruisers, and we had an army an a navy a little bigger than yours but wg doesn't care about it
WG doesn't want people to know that Italy built ships for the russian/soviet navy.

I'm willing to call bullshit on this story.
James Hardy no its actually true. Look at the Gnevny Class destroyers on wikipedia (the ship at the bottom i think). This stoey actually happened at least partially like this
That is seriously not how you pronounce Sevastopol! Great video otherwise
Let me guess...
