To be fair, both the Allies and the Soviets were already actively preparing for the Cold War before the Hot one was over. And racing against each other to collect interesting and useful Germans was a big part of the preparations. Not much of a stretch, this.
I don't think I've ever heard yahtzee laugh before today.
Medal of Honor warfighter he laughs a lot
@@platypusking5426 PFFHAAA, Warfighter.
"Nazis are like Skittles in that; you can rid the world of as many of them as you want and never get a bad taste in your mouth." I've used that line far too often lately.
How many opportunities could you possibly have had to use that line
@@jerrodshack7610 I'm gonna put my tinfoil hat on and say he reffers to right-wing conservatives as nazis or he talks a lot about history.
The thing in Russian reads "I hate you" lol
It's more like "I can't stand you".
stars111535 I'm from Russia and you're wrong. It's precisely as I have translated it. I can't stand you would be the following: "Я тебя терпеть не могу".
Dakota Fanning
he used Google translate :P
I gotta say... that made me roll on my back from laughing xD
it caught me off guard.
Dakota Fanning
Affirmative, comrade.

At that time Russia and America were only allies because of a common enemy. They still hated each other.
Also FDR was dead by the Siege of Berlin so Harry S. Truman should be in that place.
Bi$harp i've said this before and you're completely wrong. possibly there were officials of the US diplomatic section that had good reasons to not trust th sovyets but they still never went to the trouble of checking their rooms allotted to them in Moscow for hidden microphones. it was under rooseveldt's strictest instructions to be as pleasant and amiable with the sovyets as rooseveldt fully trusted stalin and his intentions re europe. it was his one true waknes.. he was shockingly naive when it came to foreign affairs. but i agree the sovyets hated the americans as they demanded UK and USA land on the shores of France in 1942-1943 at the latest. stalin's conclusion was that the UK and USA were waiting until Germany and USSR had worn each other out militarily when it was simply a case of USA had enough trouble dealing with the Japanese and the UK was spread thin in the Pacific and Burma as well as North Afrika.
but back to microphones - British diplomats discovered them very quickly in the light fittings, switches, etc..
the sovyets - well, obv under stalin's instructions - had hidden mikes placed sometimes 10 to a room! the americans never once checked and many of the interpreters were asked by stalin personally, "do you REALLY think they are completely unaware of the microphones? surely not? they speak far too openly for them not to be aware.. it's almost as if they are putting on a show for us".
the Brits simply made rude noises into the mikes then ripped them out and made thorough searches of every room, cupboard, ceiling, plaster fittings, everything... [because the Brits had used 'miking' rooms to monitor German captured Colonels and higher officers to determine 'approachability', etc]
@@narreddarr8092 tbf Soviets have good reasons not to trust westerners, considering that 20 years before that entante forces supported White Army in the Civil War
@@JohnDiGrizUkraine And Russia got completely screwed over in the treaties following ww1, although that really wasn't America's fault since the prez at the time (can't remember his name) argued for better treatment of Russia and Germany, which the rest of the allies ignored. I'd imagine the us and ussr problems started out as mostly ideological and evolved into a pointless dick measuring competition during the cold war.
Only just finished this game and I come back to find that Yahtzee is spot on.
Especially about spotting opposing snipers.
Bullet drop + wind + holstered grenade + multikill = Satisfaction
Random Welsh Flag.
Seriously, though, the last time Wales invaded anyone was... well... the Welsh have never invaded anything except foreign-occupied Welsh territory.
Wales had some of the more deadlier vikings in that time!
2:59 "Especially when you get to watch a well placed bullet zoom along in slow motion and tunnel through Fritzs brain pan tearing up all his cherished memories of eating schnitzel as a boy" Cracks me up every time.
Schnitzel is fucking delicious.
It is indeed.
The only kind I've ever eaten is fried and breaded chicken breast.
The traditional (Wiener)Schnitzel is actually made with veal, but the one with chicken is called Huehnerschnitzel, while the one with cheese and ham is the French Cordon Bleu. There is also Schnitzel with pork but that can't be called Wiener Schnitzel, instead its "Schnitzel nach Wiener Art". Also something that Yahtzee missed is that Schnitzel is not German, but Austrian :)
TheIIDarkshadowII Whatever type it is, it's delicious :)
Damnit, now you made me hungry.
Haha - for the next Schnitzel, try adding some potato salad with pumpkin seed oil as a side dish. Bon Appetit my friend! :D
0:56 - Easily one of my favorite ZP quotes :D
"Your task is to assassinate a bunch of German V2 rocket scientists"
*laughs in Operation Paperclip*
3:44 Jesus Christ, nice resolution on that pic of Rommel
Ah, the first Zero Punctuation video I watched. Always nice to revisit
that closing sentence gets me every. single. fucking. time.
if you read the end quote you will get this. actually there is a dlc mission that is pretty cheap and you do get to kill Hitler.
If you shoot him in the crotch, he will have 2 testicles. Which is inaccurate has Hitler only had 1. That is one weird fact to know from the top of your head...
FeenecksChompski No.
Hang on, how are you able to snipe the nutter when he's in an underground bunker about to partake in his daily lead?
it's a trap!!!
Drakeborn
:O
What if by killing Hitler, we make room for his generals to do whatever they want, and when they are no longer hindered by Hitler's incompetence, they turn the war around Hannibal style with the result that we would all be forced to wear leder hosens and eat Sauerkraut everyday today!
3:44 you mentioned my favorite general, and made fun of him in a way that I still laughed my ass off. This is why I love these videos.
I love the fact that you can shoot the testicles of the enemies in this game. And watch it in slow motion. And it's especially satisfying/painful if you get both with one bullet.
for some reason, I never got that to happen, even when I shot directly at an enemy's crotch...
Heir_of_heart See now the only time I got that to happen was when I accidentally hit a lamppost.
reading that made my nutts ache
That happened to me, and that was the only time I ever felt bad for killing a Nazi. Also, ***** nut explosion, good god, the sympathy pains... DX
jtroopa did you just say you felt BAD for killing a NAZI?!...the only nazi that deserves respect is Rudol Von Stronheim (a character from jojo's bizarre adventure)
And even in the sequel, nothing will raise your blood pressure quite like realizing there are ghillie snipers on a vantage point somewhere. Seriously, they are some of the most frustrating enemies I've ever faced, because they *will* see you before you see them.
Every.
Damn.
Time.
+Thenextworldwar They're nowhere near as bad as in V2 though. Remember that bullshit mission where you have to climb some buildings and then run along the rooftops after something like 15 snipers spawn into position the moment immediately after you could have reasonably spotted them and avoided becoming a human wiffle ball? That was pure concentrated bullshit, at least in 3 they give you a small degree of warning.
Don't... don't remind me...
+Thenextworldwar Call Of Duty. Those Spec Ops missions were a nightmare with the Ghillie snipers every fucking four meters.
Hidden wasn't so bad... until the second half...
I remember just barely beating it, killed the last sniper with my last bullet. For a good five minutes, I kept moving around, just waiting for the next one. Then I just made a dash for it. Made it.
Total time: 16:32
@@Eon2641 I remember a particular bs moment on a mission where I was leaving a factory in a bombarded city. Not only the damn sniper saw me the exact second I left the building, he shot me through 2 windows, of two different buildings, that perfectly aligned with the exit of the factory.
So many years later, and I finally get the visual 'money laundering' gag. XD
"and you couldn't fire a gun in a video game for more than 5 minutes without hearing someone yelling about things being Schnell."
Schnell = Fast.

"Nazi's are like skittles in that you can rid the world of as many as you like and never get a bad taste in your mouth."
Ahh...those were the days...
Has that changed somehow?
Why Name? Right wing fucktards think Nazi should be respected like decent human beings.
@@felisasininus1784 then I guess I agree with them on a grand total of one subject. For the most part the Nazis you kill in ww2 games are just poor sods who got tricked into fighting for their country.
Never seen a game where you actually only hunt down the fucked up war criminals, though that might be an interesting concept.
what about the ones who were forced to become Nazis and didn't really support Hitler.
1:24
"Allies"
My english teacher knew Yahtzee from an old job, just wanted to get that off my chest.
To be fair, even if Russia and the US were allies that didn't mean they really Trusted each other.
Stalin did trust Roosevelt, but when Truman came to power relations soured. That being said, Stalin even trusted Hitler prior to Operation Barbarossa. And yet Stalin was paranoid of his own population... How that man's mind worked we'll probably never know.
Papercut337 patton would never drink with a russian
I was talking about the US and the USSR, not Patton and a Russian.
Frederik sh Stalin didn't trust Roosevelt for shit, the Americans never liked the Soviets and it was viceversa.
Stalin also didn't trust Hitler, their entire pact of non-aggression was built upon the fact that they knew one was going to betray the other eventually.
Patrich Urso you got that the wrong way around. rooseveldt - altho a great president - was shockingly NAIVE when it came to the sovyets. in the foreign office buildings for the sovyet allies, EVERY sov ally's room was bugged in several places and everything was recorded and typed out for stalin's perusal.
now, rooseveldt and churchill got on like best buds until the sovyet Orel counter offensive after Kursk in summer 1943 and it was more than obvious that it would be USSR and USA reaping the benefits of winning WW2 w UK and France very much left bankrupt and wo their colonies and FUCK ALL THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT!
as such, whenever stalin made personal jokes that offended churchill [such as shooting 50,000 german general staff or hanging them all publicly and chuckling loudly] churchill flew into a rage and stormed out the room, furious that Rooseveldt actually went along w stalin's joke [wel, prob not a joke considering it was stalin] and from that point on the 'meeting of the big three' was realy the meeting of the big 2 with a little cigar puffing churchill looking around sheepishly as he knew his bond with rooseveldt was swapped for his totally trusting of stalin [it's in his memoirs] tho he
'never did trust the british when it came to europe as the brits are always trying to get a foothold in europe. europe needs fresh blood in its veins and what better than a true genuine powerhouse such as the USSR'.
this is prob hard for you to believe but rooseveldt really was THAT FUCKING NAIVE... he totally trusted stalin and the yanks even had a movie made about how great 'uncle Joe stalin truly was and how he had motivated a backward tsarist nation of peasants into an industrial powrhouse ...'
and the fucking yanks believed every fucking word!!
in effect? the cold war can easily be blamed upon the naivete of roosevelt's foreign policy in utterly trusting the sovyets. great president of USA.. utter fucking mongoloid when it came to foreign affairs. guy didn't have a clue about the world outside of amerikuh.
i fank yew! i fank yew!
Used a T28 Russian WW2 tank, yet used B52 bombers in the "WW2" scene.
God damn it Yahtzee get your shit together.
The scary thing being that Rommel did use the "round-the-corner murder queue tactic" in that he tended to push forward until engaged by the bulk of the British forces before starting a "fighting retreat" back into his static 88mm gun positions that then beat the Allied tanks senseless.
AVP 2010 is a pretty good game actually, grew up with that one. Still looks pretty good to this day, worth a look if you can stomach the generally mediocre campaign
Okay I cannot give you enough high brow points for the Rommel joke it was brilliant.
*Understands the Russian*
Cool, I'm gonna write in the comment section what it means.
*Scrolls down and sees someone has already done it*
...Darn.
+Keichwoud357 lol same
+Keichwoud357 yeah, i thought that russian class i was forced to take was finally about to pay off.
same.
+Keichwoud357 What does it say? I looked at the comments and I can't find anyone saying what it says
Nickolas Marchuk i havent watched the video in a long time but she basically said something along the lines that i cant stand you\hate you
Still play it from time to time. Opening someone's brainpan as a jet-black stealthy as hell murderalien is satisfying as all hell.
I like not being able to tag enemies through the scope. Makes it more interesting. You either shoot or scout but not both at once
Ah yes back when saying that nazis are bad wasn't political
I do wish they'd make more games where you can play AS the Germans in WW2. I played Hearts of Iron and Company of Heroes and you can play as the Germans in both and both games were GREAT. Its almost like its some sort of law that the main character HAS to be an American if your making a WW2 game.
Because american is the greatest country in the universe and freedom, so on.
+Arthas Menethil It's kinda like Assassins and Templars in Assassin's Creed. In AC, I always thought that the Templars were the anti-heroes and the Assassins were all misguided villains who didn't realize that their ways would only result in more chaos. I think for a WW2 game where you play as a Nazi to work, it would have to be something along the lines of "Nazi fights with other Nazis. Nazi realizes that he's helping to kill innocent Jews. Nazi then becomes undercover agent for U.N. forces." You'd have to work for both sides and avoid raising suspicions, and in the final mission, you make the decision whether or not to betray the Nazis or to betray the Allied Forces.
Al Kills All sounds good. I always thought it would make a great game if you started out as a recruit in the early 1930's, believing whole heartedly in the cause, then you get to invade Poland as a proud patriot before joining the blitz across France. At this point you'd get a parade as a war hero before being flown into africa to fight in north africa with romell, as you watch friends dieing in a fight you have no stake in and start to second guess your cause. As the casualties mount you get shipped off to turn the tide in Russia, where you lose the last of your squad mates who became your blood brothers in training. You're eventually evacuated to try to help stem the tide of the Allied advance as they try to push into germany. Your tasked to guard an important base, after holding off the Allied advance you pull back to the base to evac the staff before the allies regroup and attack. When you enter the base you find that it was actually a work camp filled with Jewish slaves. When you arrive you see the SS finishing off the last of the slaves to prevent them getting captured by the allies. At this point you lose all faith in your cause. As all the staff of the base have already left and your own men have all fallen to the allies or evacuated with the staff it just leaves you with a skeleton crew of SS troopers. You turn on them and kill the lot before defecting to the allies and leading them around the Wehremach defensive line to spare your comrades and lead the allies to an SS base just outside of Berlin where you fight your way to a climatic final battle against the SS commander who ran who the slave camp and ordered the execution.
Arthas Menethil I want you to do me a favor. Please go apply to work for Activision and make this game, because I swear if you do I would start buying FPS games again. That's ingenious dude. It takes a lot of creativity to be able to come up with that. You ought to be a writer for video game stories.
Al Kills All thanks, the only problem is, as Yahtzee put it "creativity is a black market good in the video game world"
Back in mgs3 they had a neat binocular trick i still use :D you can switch between binocular and gun easily for a perfect headshot if you're fast enough.
Ah, these never get old.
Hey past Yahtzee, Russia heats up the cold war a little bit in the future.
You know, despite Yahtzee's usual grumbling, from his description, the game actually sounds pretty alright. Not a masterpiece, sure, but a fun little timekiller.
While it has plenty of flaws, the story is terrible, and the main character couldn't possibly be more generic, as a stealth/sniping game it's actually really, really fun. It's one of the only games I have ever played all the way through on the hardest difficulty. Lining up the shot while compensating for bullet drop and wind and watching the bullet fly in slo-mo to and through your enemy's head is insanely satisfying.
Indeed more people should remember that games started as a nice little time killer for some gloomy engineers and hacktivist techie enthusiasts, and in the end, at the very least, if nowadays they so, so often fail to become more and grow into something of a semblance of an inmersive story, so miserably, to remain enjoyable, worthwhile(and worth the exorbitant money we're forced into paying), and entertaining regardless of how serious, overtly or covertly they're trying to take themselves
3:43 the Battle of Kasserine Pass
5:09 The most relatable statement I've ever heard
Fuck sake everyone rambling on about history and politics. Not one person has mentioned the fucking genius of the Catfish playing a trumpet line. You are all here for the wrong reasons.
Ah the glory days of five years ago, when nobody questioned the moral qualms of shooting nazis
@@sthcproductions Dislike for being nazis.
@@sthcproductions Haha found the Nazi simp
Hitler's last words killed me
"Ach, Vell" BOOM HEADSHOT!
the Sniper series games truly are my Favourite series of games
and for All the reasons Yahtzee mentions, glad I was not mistaken in the good parts
As much as you'd want to argue otherwise Yahtzee, considering the sheer amount of soldiers Germany deployed at the time, there bound to be some human beings trying to serve their country and nothing more.
Not to mention membership with the Nazi Party was required by law; children _had_ to enroll in Hitler Youth programs, all administrative positions (civil and military) could only be held by members, and soldiers were required to take a personal oath of loyalty to Hitler himself. It's basically the same as what living in Stalinist Russia was like, right down to the death camps for those who disagreed with the system. =/
***** Your grandfather was a braver man than I. God bless. =)
All of you deserve thumbs up from me. I'm so tired of demonized Germans, Japaneze and Russians and overly glorified Americans in these games. There are no heroes in war, only survivors.
GrandElemental If you want to find a selfless humanitarian who was also a Nazi, look no further than John Rabe, the "Good Man of Nanking." During the "Rape of Nanking" by the Japanese in the 1930's he worked as a businessman in the Chinese capital. During the Japanese occupation he established the Nanking Safety Zone in foreign embassies to shelter civilians; additionally, he housed some 650 refugees in his own property. He used his party membership to delay the Japanese while the civilians were evacuated. Most sources credit him with saving between 200,000 and 250,000 lives, and those he protected declared him "the living Buddha" for his efforts.
Look him up-and thanks for the thumbs. =)
***** True, but everybody knows about Schindler; Steven Spielberg made a freaking _movie_ about him. I never heard about John Rabe until I happened to flip through a specialized World War II magazine in a bookstore.
Holy fuck. Rebellion made AvP, Rogue Warrior, Shellshock 2 bloodlines, AND Neverdead?? That makes them like the go-to devs for absolute piss! Cool!
Best conversation i've ever witnessed
Catfish playing a trumpet looks like a star wars speeder bike xD
0:47 yeah, I don't really like playing as the British Empire either
The Welsh Warmachine XD

There are litereally DOZENS OF US!
There are at least two dozen of us
Was that a Simo Häyhä reference at 4:46 and beoynd?
Though that was when weapons like the M1911,Thompson submachine gun (which came just after the end of WW1),Browning automatic rifle,Browning M1917 and the Lewis light machine gun had just been invented and of which all are still highly regarded.
All Nazis were German, but not all Germans were Nazis. I'd like to see a WWII game that's like Spec Ops: The Line meets the first three Call of Duty games that teach this moral lesson everyone seems to forget.
Not a bad idea. There was that movie All Quiet on the Western Front, but that was WWI.
You could do it with the classic "Heart of Darkness" setup: whitebread murican hero goes out into some hidden Eastern European hellhole where some combinations of madmen in charge from the different factions are fucking everything up, war lines be damned. I dunno.
Actually there were a number of french nazis and nazis from other countries. Hell, Hitler was Austrian.
My fellow profile picture man has one of the best ideas I have ever seen.
@@TheBellman i realize this is a 5 year old comment, but there was a great movie exactly about this part of history called "Das Boot" (german for "the boat" iirc). great movie -worth a watch
See he got the Cold war wrong, any history teacher will tell you the cold war really started in the early to mid 1930's when Communism became a thing. It didn't take off until after WW2 because Russia and America were like "The enemy of my enemy is still my damnable enemy but they are less of a threat. Then we found out Russia wanted Nazi scientist to make Nukes. So we were not letting that happened. That's when we actively started stopping them and fighting them.
Also, to a comment I read below. Mein Kampf was quite a delightful read as a psychology student. It allows you to delve into his mind. It wasn't as laden with crazy as most would think. It was well written and actually interesting. It focused more on the ideals that were positive rather than the homicidal/genocidal ones.
You certainly aren't going to lose brain cells reading it.
Thanks Teacher
The thing about history is that most things lead to one another. For example, is Arch Duke Ferdinand assassination the beginning of WWI or is it officially when all of the countries declared war on each other? One caused the other but a day after Ferdinand assassination wasn't exactly WWI.
Same for the cold war. The day after communism became a thing, did they actively see the US as a threat? Was there proxy wars with the US all over the world?
No, they were too busy fighting Nazi Germany.
*****
Exactly, but we weren't buddy buddy with them. We simply agreed to not go at each other while the Nazi's were busy. However during it America Actively worked to make sure Russia benefited as little as possible from them getting to take Berlin. Many assassinations were the result of our OSS agents.
Yo McMinerTron
As a history Minor and Education Major in college; I'll take that as a compliment. *tips my hat* thank you and good day.
Jamison Parsons Both sides being preoccupied with Germany is exactly why it doesn't seem the cold war started until Germany was no longer a problem. There was no cold war during the early to mid 40's, only one big giant world war. There was tension sure, but the realization that America was "balls-deep" into Europe and Germany was "balls-deep" into Russia made all of that irrelevant.. So when Germany was no longer an issue...
'like a badger watcher with anger management issues'
"AH-HAH! I have indeed seen what they did there!!"
lol
As satisfying as the game can be, i actually got the "Spec Ops: The Line" effect from playing Sniper Elite V2. After the first play-through (where just trying to negotiate the levels and anticipate the enemy spawn points was nerve-wracking enough), i started to feel real sympathy for the enemy soldiers.
Near the start of one level, i saw two of them smoking and having a conversation, and i couldn't bring myself to kill one of them because the other would feel sad and terrified (in the brief moment before he too was killed). I spent 5 minutes just watching them through my scope, unable to pull the trigger.
In the end i shot one of them in the shoulder, and the second one in the leg. After that, i aimed only for realistically non-fatal take-downs (even though the game counts them as kills) on all subsequent soldiers. In the end, i just put the game down because i felt so... awful. The German soldiers don't look older than 20. They scream for help when they're incapacitated. They idly talk about their former lives. As bland as this game can be in its presentation, it still portrays the enemy soldiers as real people. Not very well, but it's enough of an illusion to give me pause.
As much as the game deliberately downplays the suffering of the enemy soldiers, the experience just ended with me feeling sick and exhausted. I haven't played it since.
8/10. Would recommend.
Honestly, I felt worse about being forced to attack the Red Army, since they're in Berlin, after 4 years of fighting a brutal war to the death with a bloodthirsty invader, facing attrocities and death due to the invasion and genocide behind the lines, having to sacrifice 24 million people to push them back all the way to their capital, the Fascist beast's lair.
This is supposed to be their final moment of triumph and victory, their day of glory, but here I am, the random American who's been sent in to pre-emptively fuck them over before the start of the cold war, spoiling their victory, taking away the lives of people who were so eager to go home after this final battle that would've seen them with their comrades, cheering in the streets later if I didn't have to open fire on them.

Well as long as it isn't some kind of religious theocracy I'm in.
SinerAthin After a quick lookup on wikipedia, a technocracy is exactly what I've always imagined would accually work.
Frank J maybe, but the problem is that that any kind of leader is open to some form of corruption, in other words, It's impossible to get the perfect Unity, but you can still get Damn close.
I don't know about catfish trumpeters, but I loved Swordfish trombone.
BEST Ratchet & Clank game.
I love how Crack in Time does so much right. It still plays pretty much the same as other R&C games, but what made it so great was the backstory and the free-roaming space hubs.
My biggest complaint, though, is that there wasn't enough of the space areas to really satisfy my desire for exploration.

0:56 Actually, if you do eat enough skittles, they taste horrible.
Damian Lilley Well, just get a small-ish packet of the stuff, and try eating them all in 1 mouthful.
I know someone who did, he spent like 15 minutes at it, and was crying through it all!
Double - N
Well that's different. That's the equivalent of a game having enemies lined up in a perfect line and doing the Sniper Elite gore system. It gets old very quick, but if you don't do it all in one shot, it's at least decent.
Tubbier Wombat What, you mean like you squash all these skittles together to form this large pillar (I know I'm not the only one who squashes them together) and eating that?
Sniper Elite gore system of chewing them really slowly would be AMAZING advertisement though.
Out of curiosity, what has that got to do with skittles, did you reply the wrong comment or something?
Double - N
You said that if you try eating them in one mouthful it would get old quick, just like seeing the same kill animation over and over and over.
Tubbier Wombat Eating to many skittles would not only "Get old quick", but it would be horrible.
The analogy quickly breaks down there because these animations do not cause physical pain...
Well, this didnt age well...

Was that a Goliath Birdeater there at the end?

because it was mostly just guys hiding in trenches for weeks and then charging and dying. it would not be very fun.
There is actually one, "Verdun".
lockonjunkie also both Necrovision games, but they take a bit more of a freewheeling approach to historical accuracy.

Play a game called Verdun (It's on steam greenlight) it's a WW1 trench warfare infantry based game. It's in beta and they will be adding new things.
these are awesome
There is Battlefield 1918, a TC for Battlefield 1942. There's also Verdun and, upcoming, The Trench. Most WW1 games are flight sims, though.
Ok, none of the games I mentioned are "big" titles.
Like the other guy said, all the videos are on The Escapist Magazine... Zero punctuation has been quite a popular show for a very long time and has only recently been ported over to RUclips ^^
One of his best reviews! lol
agree with most of what you said, but to forget what we did wrong is how we doom our selves to repeat it, I instead suggest we forgive and learn from our mistakes.
Note that that is an M5 Stuart, an american light tank, not a german one.
i played the game and after some time of gameplay i noticed that i hadn't used the rocks after the tutorial
2:19-2:24 sounds like Slippery John.
***** Slippery John doesn''t have a hilarious Seuth Efriken accent, though.
You are right, though I feel it is worth pointing out that many German soldiers were doing things like stuffing pillows with human hair (ummm...), making lampstands with bones (I think you know where this is going), and human hair to make certain components of their uniforms. I'm not saying that all Germans during WW2 were one-dimensional cartoon villains, but they were known to do some simply horrible things.
