I'm an American and I have no shame in considering Yuri Gagarin a true hero. Looking back on history, he may have been on the right side of it all, and he gave us inspiration to go even further.
As an African, he really paved the way for all of humanity and opened the vast heavens for all of us. We owe everyone who has ever been into space a debt of gratitude. Hopefully much like jet planes, the ordinary person gets to also experience space.
17:20 I feel like this is so interesting, because I'm a twelve year old, in an American school, and I had created this internal ideation that Russia was the bad guy, that they had bad, violent intentions, and that the US was just trying to stop them. This is just really eye opening to me, because I honestly had no idea that they were scared of us. I saw a sort of documentary, where this guy went around and asked people in Russia(just normal people, walking around) what they wanted to say to America, and a lot of people said something along the lines of 'We just want peace, we want to stop fighting, we want to break the tension between us.' I also was on a sort of texting platform where you can talk to random people all around the world, and I met a guy(Around my age) from somewhere in Asia, I forget where exactly, but he said that they looked up to America because of our innovation, and how we move forward so quickly. This just really shocked me, because I look up to other countries in terms of their government, and economy. I have ADHD, so I think a bit differently than others, but I really think that the school system should start teaching these things from an early age so we have a better image of how people see us. I also really hate how, for a long time, I used to think that Africa was all just dirt houses, not enough food, and so on. But then I learned from a Ted Talk that Africa has thriving cities, and yes, some parts of the country are more poor than others, but not all of it. Same with Mexico, I used to think its all just immigrants, and homeless people trying to survive, again, not true. I'm not sure if they teach things differently in the upper grades, but they really should make sure that we don't have these opinions of these wonderful places. And thank you if you read this much, I really appreciate it! Have a wonderful day or night, ummm yeah!
I'm glad you're watching this at your age. Good on you. Definitely watch all 24 episodes; really good stuff. The younger you realize how important it is to see thru the bullshit, the further you'll go.
@@moodlampActual so true. i’m 13 now, but a whole lotta shit has happened 😅 i don’t like living through the times that history book writers will make a living on lmao.
Good on you!!! I'm proud of you. I've been studying this since right after high school in 1995 and I never get tired of it. You are going to be leaps and bounds beyond your peers knowing this going into high school and college. Remember this is an asset and you can go back to it again and again. You're one in a million, kid!
First words of the documentary. "The shock wave approach and knocked on the roof of the bunker 1, 2 as if a giny had free from the bottle patted us and thanked us for releasing him from his long captivity" You got to laugh or cry!?!
What kind of idiot General would practice "storming" an area that has just been annihilated by a nuclear explosion? What kind of resistance could he possibly be expecting? P.S Had to feel a bit sorry for the press secretary when he had to read out that the U2 was a civilian aircraft!!! No wonder he looked so horribly uncomfortable!!!
Yuri Gagarin was a man to behold for many, but what he achieved was certainly something mankind could still strive for in the future. Imagine if mankind had invested on space rather than nukes?
sadly, the space race was initiated to develop ICBMs and spy satellites, because the trajectory you have to send a missile on to hit russia from america for example means it has to go into space. sputnik was fired up on an ICBM, and if you make a venn diagram of countries with nukes and countries with a space program its basically a circle, even if the money would probably be better spent somewhere else (take india, for example). the investment in "space" was an investment in nukes as depressing as that is. I hope they one day find a better use for the technology, but colonising mars or the moon seems pretty far off even with all the developments they made.
Fortunately, the Soviet Union and its Warsaw Pact puppets economically collapsed, with no nuclear war. It was Nikita Khruschev that said, "we will bury you."
@Big Lurch Aka Looney2 ECC Lol behave. I would be looking at us Brits and the rest of Europe first before Trump. At least he isn't dumb enough to fall for the scaremongering stories that are flying around in Europe. Britain has said many times that we should get ready for the Russians, and in a recent story, we are capable to take them on.
That was bluster on Khrushchev's part. Compare nuclear arsenals, compare war losses 27 million! , more dead in Leningrad that the empire and yanks put together! The Yanks had jupiter missiles in turkey, 10 mins flytime to russia. the russians wanted a buffer to stop another invasion like napoleon, hitler, teutonic knights, kaiser in 17, crimea, they were usually the victims first.
@@grahamlowe7388 Those Jupiter missiles in Turkey were already obsolete, had previously been slated for removal, to be replaced by Polaris SLBMs launched from subs in the Mediterranean, which did not justify the covert Soviet attempt to place nuclear missiles in Cuba. The "decadent" West wanted a plausible deterrent to prevent a potential attack from Soviet/Warsaw Pact forces that outnumbered NATO forces 3 to 1, which were poised to immediately seize West Berlin and western Europe.
@@Giruno56 Khrushchev said this at a meeting with diplomats from Western countries at the Polish Embassy in Moscow in October, 1956 -- and it came from *his own translator.* Later, he corrected himself by saying _"your own workers will bury you."_
The reason the USA fell behind in space is simple. The USSR had trouble "miniaturizing" their nukes, thus, a very powerful booster was needed to loft their heavy warheads. This ended up in being able to orbit Sputnik, which weighed maybe 1/500 what a nuke weighed. U.S. boosters didn't need the power; US nukes were lighter. Thus, early US boosters could not achieve orbit.
Probably the best documentary series on the Cold War, thank you much! 27:42: In somber, horrified face: "We can only pray for mercy that God will speed the end . . . reminder of the torture the animal world must go through", then with maniac, happy face: "there's a female up there!" It's a great documentary, but what was the matter with this person?
There was a gap alright but the us was on top. Eisenhower like all good commanders didnt want the soviets to know lest they do a real buildup. Fact is ussr only had one icbm operational at that time. Yuri gagaren wasnt first russian in space, his predecessor died during a 300 mph re-entry. We werent to know that for 50 years
Disgusting g statement by he physicist Harold Agnew about the Japanese fishermen who were hurt by the fallout from the Shrimp bomb! A foul way of looking at the consequences of the nuclear race...that accidents just happen.
19:13: Real _Shock_ about TU-95 is, other than a few visual things, it's a carbon copy of a B-29 Super Fortresses. 4 land in Russia during WWII Stalin "forgot," to return. Pretty obsolete for jet age though. See" _Stealing the Super Fortresses"_
Nope, the Tu-95 is not a copy of the B-29, the Tu-4 Bull was the copy. Stalin didn't forget to return any of them. Three of them landed in the USSR after attacking Japan. The problem was the USSR was not at war with Japan and under the laws of war at the time the Russians were well within their rights to do what they wished with them (they could have kept the crews interned as well, but did let them 'Escape' into Iran so that they could go home. The pity was had the US aircrew who didn't pay attention at their mission brief, paid attention to the order "don't land in the USSR as they are Neutral as regards the Pacific War", the USSR would never have got their hands one.
If the money wasted on the Cold War had been spent on beneficial matters, such as health, education and safe water supplies, then there would be very little serious ill-health and poverty in the world.
27:30 Just like my fellow americans , all upset about the soviets putting a dog into space . Till this day , They are more concerned about cruelty to animals than they are cruelty to human beings . I read several studies that the well being of the family or single owner of a , pet dog was more important to Americans than a relative (cousin , aunt , even brother or sister ) who became jobless , homeless or ill .
1. We have a lot more contact every day with out dogs than with our cousins. Making our hurt rogue a lot more real to us. 2. Dog dies in space is a lot more ridiculous and therefore memomarable than fishermen die because of idiocy.
@@jorenvanderark3567 a fisherman died from idiocy? For simply being in the wrong place at the wrong time? Im sorry but no one should care for a dog more than several peoples lives and well being
Race in space between capitalism and communism? At that time more of a question who figures out where to go from in the future from those 40's developements.^^
From what ive learned i believe we helped build sputnik to convince americans to find United States space program. We kept the soviet union alive. The military industrial complex was the big winner in all this.
how did you learn this? years of study, or a few afternoons on the Internet reading about what other people "learned"? The military complex did benefit, but to blindly state that they invented sputnik, the cold war etc. is boring and ignorant.
Yuri wasn't the first man in space, although he was the first to return...... many died in space as there were many failures which couldnt be reported...... Please dont ask me for proof, as its out there somewhere, i just remember reading that and was quiet shocked at the time. R.I.P, all those that had gone (died) before Yuri in the name of spece exploration......
We should feel sympathy for both equally. However, it does concern me that a lot of people would choose saving a random dog than a random person. I saw one of those polls here on youtube. Wtf?
American approach to whole situation. Let the Russians screw and bankrupt themselves. Astronaut: “Houston, we have a problem.” Houston: “What?” Astronaut: “The Russians painted the moon red!” Houston: “Well, do you guys have white paint with you?” Astronaut: “Yes. Why?” Houston: “Write Coca-Cola on it.” Putin does not make same mistakes.
The Russians achieved every single major space-race goal, except for landing on the moon. The US got slaughtered in the space race, and they just barely landed on the moon at the end.
If the Soviets had beaten America to the moon, America would have just moved the goal posts and said the space race ends at Mars, or the asteroid belt, or however far they needed to go to be first. It's a testament to American propaganda that most people think America won the space race when we only really had one achievement to our name.
The soviets lost the war from the very beginning. A rocket in space? how about 80 million of your own butchered and murdered by dictators, how about a constant rule by fear, constant disappearances, lies propaganda and chains. Freedom and democracy win, and will always win.
Humanity lost the cold war. We celebrate the fall of the wall, but time is on the side of the bomb. Religion loves the genie that left the bottle. Strategy be damned, ideology could still kill us all. But I hope I'm wrong.
Zzyzx Zee you’d be begging God like a little bitch if you had an immediate nuclear strike warning wherever you live. I love tough guy comments like yours. I know you’re full of shit.
If you stop & think about it the Russians beat the Americans in every major achievement (missiles, satellites, cosmonauts and space stations) during the space-race. By the time of the moon landing(s) the Soviets had already declared them a waste of resources.

Even the documentary itself, seems to be more comprehensive to the "American failures", rather then the "Soviet Atrocities".
Starting at 19:23, the wreckage behind the old general is Article 360, the U-2 Frank Powers flew over the Soviet Union on 1 May 1960.
I'm an American and I have no shame in considering Yuri Gagarin a true hero. Looking back on history, he may have been on the right side of it all, and he gave us inspiration to go even further.

It's a testament to American propaganda that most people think America won the space race when we only really had one achievement to our name.
The US has 3 rovers on Mars. How many does Russia have? The US has satellites that reached the end of our solar system. Russia?
The soviets lost the war from the very beginning. A rocket in space? how about 80 million of your own butchered and murdered by dictators, how about a constant rule by fear, constant disappearances, lies propaganda and chains. Freedom and democracy win, and will always win.
@David Lamont and they got there on Russian rocket engines
We also only lost two men,the soviets lost hundreds.easy to be first if you dont value human life.
Always the quiet ones
Flopnik hahaha!!
Humanity lost the cold war. We celebrate the fall of the wall, but time is on the side of the bomb. Religion loves the genie that left the bottle. Strategy be damned, ideology could still kill us all. But I hope I'm wrong.
Shawn Crawford oh yea,just a matter of time...i cant wait!
Zzyzx Zee you’d be begging God like a little bitch if you had an immediate nuclear strike warning wherever you live. I love tough guy comments like yours. I know you’re full of shit.
If you stop & think about it the Russians beat the Americans in every major achievement (missiles, satellites, cosmonauts and space stations) during the space-race. By the time of the moon landing(s) the Soviets had already declared them a waste of resources.
They also killed hundreds of workers and cosmonauts. Yuri gagaren wasnt the first cosmonaut in space, just the first one that lived!
