Wtf everyone talking about american snipers... "the white death" is an actual person, Simo Häyhä, a finnish no-scope sniper in winter war. That's what the song is about.
Simo Hayha got 505 kills with his sniper rifle and a further 150 or so with his SMG and his knife. The russians sent everything after him, the shelled him with artillery, it only tore his jacket and he laughed it off, they sent commando and counter sniper teams after him, he killed them. They even tried carpet bombing areas they thought he might be, he was not there. in the end he got shot in the face with an explosive bullet, that stopped him for about a week, then the war ended... this guy is one of histories true bad-asses.
i agree...different type of war...different type of tactics used...that is why i said it depend of point of view...ww2 is when use of sniper is in rise...so it was a bit harder when you know that Germans also got pretty good snipers as well so Sidorenko had to watch out not to get in their scope...
What makes me smile is that all the guys in this film are nowhere near as badass as the dude the song is written about. He made hundreds of kills and scared the russian military shitless with nothing so much as an iron-sighted bolt-action rifle!
hopefully they think we still have that kind of war borns in our ranks. might keep them away from our lands if they are not yet satisfied after Ukraine. tho like we would not be watching over the east border. their movements are well know. sure some want to join NATO. yeah sure, than we would have to give them our last coins and they would have troops in our country. what happens if we dont pay? do they attack us? most likely. and we have survived with out NATO from earlier wars and back than we had even less men and heck we only had 32 tanks back than. now we have far more military force if russians decide to attack. at least we go down fighting for our freedom.
The trolltastic gamer bros guess they found oil or something from there. and either way, they would be against russia. if putin wants so, russia would destroy them in an instant.
MrAnimepredator not likely.its about Ukraine wanting to join UN and putin not letting them.still I doubt there will be a war.if so.grab your homemade nuke shelters go underground and pray!
Simo Häyhä -movie is in the making and its coming out in 2017, when Finland turns 100 year old country. It's gonna beat this movie just because it's Häyhä movie (not documentary, a movie based on real thing).
+rodgerdodger1897 i would guess scandinavia to, they will make an english version of it though i think :p would be weird to make a great movie for just 1 country to enjoy :)
Thanks for all your comments! I know that many of you complain that it is not true to the story, which I think is very clear :) If you look around, there has already been made nice videos about the original story, this one is only made for fun, since both the song and the movie are (and I think many agree) pretty cool!
In this move the guy is called a badass for killing 100 guys Simo killed over 500 with his rifle alone. In fact a lot of fictional badasses can't compair with simo's kill count.
it all starts with that first step we may stumble along the way but a dragon in training i do see. keep up the good work bro and breath fire on the ignorant comments .
Sadly there are no fucking GUNCAM clips from the real white death...and no other HISTORIC MATCHING SNIPER Videos from the WW2...and I have respect for your Wikipedia skills...
JayKayRQ Probably because having an extra guy to film it would make him more visible, since they didn't have small camera's you could put on the barrel back then.
TheLuckyday11 probably because no one would give a fuck about filming sniper footage in the fucking world war while everything around you was dying and falling apart? And you barely had any resources to sustain yourself, you'd not be able to make any filming footage form infantery/sniper soldiers and i dont even think that they really thought about that
But nobody said that this video is related to the happenings in 1940, you, R elm, wrote in the description, this is fictional, it's not related to the Winter war, so why do so many people have a problem with it?
Thanks for reading, think many missed this part, plus, there is already a ton of WW2/Sabaton (really good tho) related stuff made. It's actually a shame they did not make an official video for such a good song! :-)
+-T-X-M- I don´t think R Elm ment the video as an insult to Simo... And do you really need to hate the americans so much? It´s just a movie (and a great one Imo), so just enjoy the music! R Elm: Awesome video Imo!
Man i can just give u positive critics.This is great song and video also.I didnt love this kind of music but when i heard Sabaton last few days i just listen them.
SicknessNfilth Have you ever been here? Its even more common in north. Ja teille suomi sankareille syy siihen miksi se ei käyttäny tähtäintä oli se että sitä vitutti kun linssi meni huuruun pakkasel.
I actually didn't really like that movie, it was again one of those "super soldier" movies. which america keep making. they are quite annoying in my opinion.
He had snow in hes mouth to cover hes breath and iron sight is better in winter warfare because it dosent give reflection and scope is not gonna get foggy. 505 kills with rifle and 200 more with smg. Only thing he said after war was "Tein sen mitä käskettiin niin hyvin kuin osasin." (I did what i was told to do as well as i could.)
Around 70's if i remmeber right. You may find that news article from finnish librarys. And what comes for his injury, you got only one part right; he survived. He did not kill guy who shot him. Häyhä's face was blown away, and he did not walk away from there, his own troops carried him away. He was in coma
Decent music video. By the way, white death was a Finnish sniper in the Winter War, his name was Simo Häyhä. He set some records with his Mosin-Nagant 7,62/43R rifle.
A sniper is originally someone hunting for snipes (birds), later someone firing from an ambush, now usually someone shooting with high caliber at longer distances is perceived as sniper. Thus the term "Sniper rifle" initially refers to a very precise, long distance weapon that fires high-speed bullets, now basically a precise high caliber rifle, but scope is not neccessary. He (Simon Häyhä) preferred iron sight so the sun doesn't glance off the lense and reveal him.
It's the cheytac Intervention, a .408 rifle designed for antipersonnel sniping (as opposed to the barret line which tend to be Anti-materiel that are occasionally used for long distance AP sniping.)
In military and law enforcement terminology, a sniper rifle is a precision-rifle used to ensure more accurate placement of bullets at longer ranges than other small arms. The term is often used in the media to describe any type of accurized firearm fitted with a telescopic sight that is employed against human targets, although "sniping rifle" or "sniper's rifle" is the technically correct term for such a rifle.
You are indeed correct, for all I know there were no vikings in Finland aside from maybe a few individuals that travelled abroad. "Among the Finns' western neighbours, the Norse of Scandinavia, it was a common belief that the Finns were wizards. In the Norse sagas, inclusion of a Finnish element almost always signifies a supernatural aspect to the story." Taken from wikipedia. Not the most credible source I know but still.
In military and law enforcement terminology, a sniper rifle is a precision-rifle used to ensure more accurate placement of bullets at longer ranges than other small arms. A typical sniper rifle is built for optimal levels of accuracy, fitted with a telescopic sight and chambered for a military centerfire cartridge. Sniper describes a rifle AND/OR person.
Häyhä used a sniper position on civil guard weapons, M/28-30 "Spitz" rifle (serial number 60974), and unlike the Soviets opponents he preferred iron sights rather than telescopic sight. Lege, it was possible to obtain faster than the variable scope sight picture, in addition to having a glass fog up readily in the winter. Scope also sometimes reflected the light, revealing the location of the shooter at the same time.
Isolated people of hunters and farmers, who occasionally trade and other collaboration with people from both east and west. People mostly lived in small communities, but some bigger, city-like communitiea were formed as trading centres near baltic sea coast. As a location, Finland was somewhat important to vikings, as their trade route passed through there, but Finns as people werent important.
Simo was a finnish sniper in the winter war in WW2.He got 500 kills with his riffle and 200 with a automatic gun.Simo used no scope cuz he was to short and the sun reflected in the normal scope and that would give out his location.He had snow in his mouth so the enemy couldnt see his breath.Simo was hit by a bullet and he fell in a coma.......Two weeks later he woked up and the winter war was over.Simo died in the age of 92 years old in Finland.Finland FTW...PS sorry for grammar mistakes :)
Aye you are correct. A Sniper is the person using the weapon. and the type of rifles are "commonly" called sniper rifles. Same way Marksman rifles are used by Marksmen. The kind of weapons themselves vary. and Simo is a sniper indeed. using a Mosin-Nagan M28/30 without scope. as the russians would otherwise see the light reflection of the scope. hes an amazing man. All Finnish are imho!
Should point out that this man was virtually unstoppable to the point that the soviets feared specifically him, and even tried counter snipers and carpet bombings (both of which failed) his record is 505 confirmed kills in a little under 100 days, 200 unconfirmed.
espacially it's about the sniper "white death" a finnish marksman with about 800 hits, 200 of them confirmed. when he was asked, why he was that good he just answerd: pratice!
The M-39, M-28/30, M-28, and M-27 were all Finnish designed Mosin-Nagants. Several different variations were used bu the Finns, but the M-39 was not widely used in the Winter War. The book I have says he maid most of his kills with an M-28/30 with iron sites.
That could be a reason another reason is the scope can give away your position with a glint, he also packed the snow down around him so the gun blast didn't throw up snow and even kept snow in his mouth so his breath did not give him away
He had a self modified hunting version of a Mosin Nagant. :) He also had some kills with a Machine Gun but i dont remember how many.They were more than 100 for sure :) We can say he was a BADASS PRO!!!
@sk8teboardElement Don't forget that he used M/39 ''ukkopekka'' rifle, it's less lethal than that rifle in vid... Also he did put snow in he's mouth to hide he's breat (when it's freezing cold, your breath is kind of mist near your head and it's deadly mistake...)
"In military and law enforcement terminology, a sniper rifle is a precision-rifle used to ensure more accurate placement of bullets at longer ranges than other small arms." Stop talking.
Wtf everyone talking about american snipers... "the white death" is an actual person, Simo Häyhä, a finnish no-scope sniper in winter war. That's what the song is about.
He also has the world record of sniping, about 500 confirmed kills.
Kettumaki12 505.
SUOMI PERKELE!
kananas yeaah
Kettumaki12 and 200 kill with a submachine gun
Kettumaki12 Oh wow tell me more! He broke the hearth of over 500 parents, what a fucking hero.
Simo Hayha got 505 kills with his sniper rifle and a further 150 or so with his SMG and his knife. The russians sent everything after him, the shelled him with artillery, it only tore his jacket and he laughed it off, they sent commando and counter sniper teams after him, he killed them. They even tried carpet bombing areas they thought he might be, he was not there. in the end he got shot in the face with an explosive bullet, that stopped him for about a week, then the war ended... this guy is one of histories true bad-asses.
Just the fact they carpet bombed areas and sent artillery for the sole purpose of trying to kill one person just proves how fucking beast he is.
And he didn't even use a scope, it was all with iron sights.
Not to mention the bugger died of age... Bloody hell.
I'm from Finland and that's true what he says about Simo Häyhä
I expected nothing less from a Finn. If Soviets bombarded his positions with Nokia phones...
btw this song is about a finnish sniper during the winter war, Simo Häyhä
Simon Doge simo häyhä is world best sniper
it depends from point of view... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivan_Sidorenko
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simo_H%C3%A4yh%C3%A4
i agree...different type of war...different type of tactics used...that is why i said it depend of point of view...ww2 is when use of sniper is in rise...so it was a bit harder when you know that Germans also got pretty good snipers as well so Sidorenko had to watch out not to get in their scope...
We all know! They used this video because there is no movie about Simo
What makes me smile is that all the guys in this film are nowhere near as badass as the dude the song is written about. He made hundreds of kills and scared the russian military shitless with nothing so much as an iron-sighted bolt-action rifle!
hopefully they think we still have that kind of war borns in our ranks. might keep them away from our lands if they are not yet satisfied after Ukraine. tho like we would not be watching over the east border. their movements are well know. sure some want to join NATO. yeah sure, than we would have to give them our last coins and they would have troops in our country. what happens if we dont pay? do they attack us? most likely. and we have survived with out NATO from earlier wars and back than we had even less men and heck we only had 32 tanks back than. now we have far more military force if russians decide to attack. at least we go down fighting for our freedom.
MrAnimepredator as far as I heard America has moved a lot of men and equipment to Romania so they are preparing for something big
The trolltastic gamer bros guess they found oil or something from there. and either way, they would be against russia. if putin wants so, russia would destroy them in an instant.
MrAnimepredator not likely.its about Ukraine wanting to join UN and putin not letting them.still I doubt there will be a war.if so.grab your homemade nuke shelters

They bombed and shelled his position for days and still didn't kill him
Simo Häyhä -movie is in the making and its coming out in 2017, when Finland turns 100 year old country. It's gonna beat this movie just because it's Häyhä movie (not documentary, a movie based on real thing).
Have to check it up!
Will it only be coming out in Finland or do you think the states also?

Thanks!

he rarely used his smg bt had with it some confirmed kills
Took me years to find this again one of the best amvs I know

The song is about Simo Häyhä
There is no men like Simo Häyhä anymore in Finland, but I truly must admire Simo Häyhä, how skilled man he was! Excellent shooter!
The song is about finnish mlg no-scoper. His name is Simo Häyhä. The description is false + you can check the lyrics if you dont believe me c:
You did just lovely writing that. And you gave great information. And I am not surprised that he lived to 92. That man was one hell of badass.
9/11 2001, one of the best days in my life, everybody joking etc.
This video is awesome, for an awesome song! Great work...
This video just makes no sense with the song. He only used ironsighted sniper and a submachine gun. He also never fought in other than winter.
Sadly there are no fucking GUNCAM clips from the real white death...and no other HISTORIC MATCHING SNIPER Videos from the WW2...and I have respect for your Wikipedia skills...

Man i can just give u positive critics.This is great song and video also.I didnt love this kind of music but when i heard Sabaton last few days i just listen them.
He used iron sight cause using scope he would have to raise his head too high thus making him easier target for enemy snipers.
And because of the sun glare

it´s all about the scopes ;) they shine nice and bright on a sunny winter day
If you click 4:08 You can quietly hear the music, however if you watch up to that point there is no music.....? Am I going crazy?
