    At least this B-24 bailout was easy enough. A much harder one would be from “The Luftwaffe’s Dealiest Mission” from ‘Dogfights’.

    Cool reconstruction, but I believe the crew dropped the entire bomb load after taking damage. 😄

    I didn't know the Germans had an 88mm Flakwagen on a truck chassis. Tamiya and Trumpeter are slacking lately...

    Really enjoyed this. It was fun playing along and trying to decide which choice was correct.

    I've been a paratrooper and have free fall experience as well. I completely missed the appropriate jump posture.

      Very different than today!!

  • @davidcox4544
    @davidcox4544 19 часов назад

    You taught me something new TJ3 History. I was unaware of proper procedures for free falling during this time line. I thought for sure arms and legs spread belly first. Just shows more bravery of the airmen to free fall HEAD FIRST! Thanks for the great video sir!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

    I got the first answer wrong, but the other 4 I got right. Love these real story videos that I can participate in on making the right decision.

    Try bailing out of a small hole, at night. That’s what the British + Empire had to do

      I do not envy bomber command.

  • @capnsalty0200
    @capnsalty0200 17 часов назад

    I got the first one wrong but the last one on how to jump I would have done the skydiver route. So 2 wrong.

  • @lil2nerdy645
    @lil2nerdy645 15 часов назад

    Got the first and last one wrong. I got the 3 rings of the bell right away thanks to Masters of the Air. Oh hey TJ just a friendly reminder that this Dec 16 will be the 80th anniversary of the start of the Battle of the Bulge and right now it's the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Hurtgen Forest.

    @Barhead-y5x 19 часов назад

    Hardest decision. Sometimes WW2 bombers would take a massive amount of damage amd still return home, others would take what could be considered "light" damage and the aircraft completely explode upon taking fire.
    Hard to truly know what we would do...

    • @TJ3
      @TJ3  19 часов назад

    I got the signal and jump technique wrong, though I did a horizontal fall, so I can always say I was falling ass-first and belly up.
    I believe I'd survive, but my back would NOT be happy with me.
