Imagine having to explain to your superiors that the prison you oversee had a massive reinforced railway tunnel built under it by prisoners without anyone noticing.
Hans Wilsdorf (Rolex founder) sent watches to this prison (and others camps, 3000 watches total) for the troops to time the guards for their escapes. If they survived, the troops were to pay him back. After the war, Hans said he wasn't in a hurry to receive payments from the troops. A class act by Rolex!! I've never heard of this in videos featuring the camps, only in articles. Even in the movie, they don't show using a watch timing the guards that i can remember.
Very unfortunate that they found the tunnel that quickly otherwise the escapees would have had a day or more to make their way through Germany before their absence would've been noticed
I thought about that also, but the last person out would have had to cover up the exit otherwise the guards would have still found it in the daylight. Then how often did the camp do a "Roll call" Otherwise, this is an interesting video covering some information that the film only hinted about.
In the end I think the factor that mainly doomed the operation was the fact that they were BARELY short of the treeline. If they went just a bit farther, they would have been in the trees and virtually undetectable as long as they weren't loud, and potentially still had a watcher for sentries. Even the screw up that busted them wouldn't have mattered if they had the tree line to cover for them
@@lordmanatee439 they would definitely notice 76 prisoners missing. But in an escape like this the difference between being discovered at 4:55 or at lets say 8:00 in the morning is 3 hours and in 3 hours you can come a long way. It would be much harder to track them
Unsurprisingly the only ones who made it were non-native english speakers from countries with Germanic languages. As an American or Brit travelling that deep inside German would have been basically impossible. They were doomed
That point was certainly not lost on them either, they put the German-speakers and those who had experience with escapes first as they would have the best chance of evading capture. And on the other hand a pair who spoke a little Spanish evaded capture for longer than most specifically because their broken German was convincing enough to sell them as migrant laborers.
The 2 netherlands and 1 dutch guy were probably scared shitless still. I agree its no suprise the others were caught. Especially in Germany with no support network.
I just have to say that not only is the storytelling very captivating and well written but these are really some of the best visuals on RUclips for this type of content - from somebody who works a lot with 3D visuals. Kudos!
5:34 @IMPERIAL ide like to point out that Australians, New Zealanders, Canadians, and South Africans also participated in this. In fact some played huge roles; like Wally Floody who helped design and engineer the tunnels.
Life is war and war never changes. One could just as easily argue how many peoples lives were improved from the jobs constructing, supplying, and transporting the prisons. Someone with less moral scruples will always be there to take the money and build the thing
@@IMPERIALYT You obviously did not research this very well if you did not know that Canadians, Australians, New Zealanders, and South Africans were also at the camp.
Man... WWII was horrific... just absolutely horrific... I can't even begin to imagine how horrifying it must've been to be at the camp, to do these operations trying to get out, to get caught, or to be on the run. And the ones that did get away, walked for an incredible amount of time. It's just... horrifying...
@@magnumxlpi I think that's correct and why the Geneva convention (or it's precursor) was developed for the humane treatment of enemy combatants. The Germans did largely follow that during WWII (with the exception of the Gestapo) as did the Allies with German POWs.
The Great Escape movie was partially based on Ken Rees. I actually live in Ken Rees’s old house in North Wales. An absolute legend with wit that was beyond comprehension even into his later years. A real hero who I was honoured to meet and get to know.
Amazing video. The production quality is always impeccable on this channel. One comment I have about the American flag seen at 5:43 - it was the 48-Star Flag during WW2, which could help with historical immersion :) but it takes nothing away from the video
I have been to this site, stood next to this tunnel and felt extremely proud of these men.I am a Kiwi and honoured to see Kiwis remembered at this site.
One of the Norwegian escapees Per Bergsland, is related to my family through my grandfather, my father was visiting Per Bergsland quite often and he told me stories which Per told him from the camp, it was terrifying and absolutely horrific. But I am happy to see such good videos about such topics.
Don't care about the video, just saw the thumbnail and came to the comments to see how far I had to scroll to find someone with the same thought as me.
Absolutely amazing bro this is the type of story that i want to watch i do appreciate your immense effort cause i know it's not easy at all so again thanks.
The penguins’s role reminds me of Clint Eastwood’s character in Escape From Alcatraz. He did the same, but with dried clay. Stellar production. New sub.
Great video. Bram (Bob) van der Stok was the Dutchman who escaped. His autobiography is called: Oorlogsvlieger van Oranje. In the book he explaines his flight from Stalag Luft II.
In the neighbouring camp, there was another escape. This one, only 3 got out. 3 got home. Same number as got home from the great escape. The story is told in The Wooden Horse. (they used a vaulting horse to conceal the tunnel entrance)
2:43 and 10:13 German soldiers admired airmen and some were sympathetic to them. My FIL was a bombardier shot down over N Africa. He was taken by the Italians (who beat him mercilessly) and turned him over to the Germans. He must not have been in an "airman's camp" but mixed with other soldiers. A camp guard saw his airman's tattoo on his shoulder, developed a "relationship" of sorts with him, admired him and then helped him escape. He was shot down 2x and escaped both. He was sent home and met my MIL at the VE Day parade in our downtown area. He suffered from PTSD and would wake her up at night, shove her and their baby in a closet and stand guard, armed, all night. He died of cancer when my husband, his last child, was 3 years old. I never got to meet him but I think about him and the stories I've heard. What an absolutely brave and FEARLESS man to have escaped twice. He wasn't the only one who did it either. They weren't given two POW medals but were given one with a notation on it that they were taken prisoner more than once. His grandson looks just like him with the same square, determined jaw. I tell him he's lucky to have such a hero to look up to in his own grandfather. God bless these men. Give them rest and comfort now.
There is movie about this escape from 1963 with Steve McQueen, called The Grat Escape. I guess 3 of them who survived knew german, and that helped a lot.That's why americans and british are caught.
No Americans were caught because no Americans escaped because all of the Americans had been transferred to another camp well before the escape ever happened. Movies are not documentaries.
They did that because those were really common names and made it a lot easier to talk about the tunnels when the guards were basically watching your every move.
They should of postponed until they extended the tunnel past the tree line. So much hard work put at risk, probably overruled by the first few soldiers who were going to leave ahead of everyone else.
There is a old movie about this, my dad and I used to watch it and I really love the movie, the whole Intricate way the POW strategized the escape was amazing
14:43 This section is inaccurate. 50 of the 73 prisoners recaptured were executed, not all of them. 17 were returned to Stalag luft III, 2 sent to Colditz and the last 4 sent to Sachsenhausen concentration camp, but luckily survived, even managing one more escape attempt before the war ended. The prisoners still in Stalag-luft III were told about 41 men being shot "while trying to escape" in april 1944, so they knew they were dead, just not how (although most guessed correctly). Their fate was only unknown for a few weeks, after that it was only the details that needed to be sorted out. The German Prison commandant, a Lufwaffe officer was so appauled by what the Gestapo had done he permitted the British to build a memorial to their dead, in 1944, with the war still going, he even contributed to it himself. The senior British officer in the camp, repatriated due to poor health by the red cross informed the British government and an announcement was made on the 23rd of June 1944, at which time foreign secretary Anthony Eden promised those responsible would be held to account once the war ended.
The Great Escape is undoubtedly an iconic movie though much of it is pure Hollywood. I've visited the actual site at Zagan and immediately noticeable was the sandy earth. How they tunneled through that was nothing less than a miracle. Just the foundations of some building exist though the pool they used to swim in is in reasonable order. What is correct in the movie is the camp commandant who was replaced after the escape, Friedrich Wilhelm von Lindeiner, treated the POWs as fellow officers and at his trial they testified he had followed the Geneva convention. There is a small museum nearby which is also well worth visiting.
You never really covered how they got around the barracks being built above ground, but the presentation and narration was excellent. The supply officer and leadership there must have been really ignorant to allow that much supply be brought in without accounting for everything. That should have been a clear indicator.
So I tried to find out how they did, I assume they camouflaged the tunnel somehow - but I wasn't able to confirm unfortunately, that's why there's a bit of a hole in the explanation. Happy to add it to the corrections section of the script if anyone finds out
It'll make a return sometime next year! I wasn't happy with the intro in the end and decided to take it down completely, didn't want it to sour an otherwise good video
The tunnel entrances were out of a shower (concrete section with drain), under a furnace (went through the brick stilt into the foundation), and from the kitchen (also a concrete slab with a drain). They simply chose the few spots where there was no gap under the floor. Ironically the Luftwaffe believed tunneling out of such a camp would be impossible, and even after discovering the first tunnel, foolishly believed that there could not be another (let alone two others!) since digging even one was nearly impossible. I highly recommend watching The Great Escape (1963). It is my favorite film of all time and it is a retelling of this exact event.
I've always wondered at the wisdom of working on multiple tunnels simultaneously. From the standpoint of time, materials, and risk of discovery, one tunnel built quickly would be the better idea since only one would be used for escape anyway, assuming the partially completed tunnels would be discovered after the escape, plus the anticipated lock-down that would be a result of the escape.

@@lordmanatee439if the tunnel hadn't been discovered it would give the escapees a 10 to 12 headstart on the gaurds

There's a promising young actor called Steve McQueen that would be perfect for the film.
