    There is a lot of debate among the fandom as to what Joakim's legs are actually made of. No natural human knee should be able to survive the ammount of punnishment he pounds into it. My bet is either mithril or orichalcum.

    One of the reasons why the Bismarck was so swiftly hunted down wasn’t just because it was one of the few German battleships in the Atlantic but also because the HMS Hood was the Pride of the British Fleet and a whole task force was assembled to hunt it down and sink it in revenge

      When an 1800lb shell explodes in your Main Powder magazine for C -Turret, and a magazine of 4" AA shells, any ship is going to have a bad day. Not to mention Hood had all of her blast doors open during the Battle, to move shells faster throughout the ship, but it doesn't matter if don't have time to close off, and flood the entire turret. Only 3 men survived, and their is an older Interview with one of HMS Hoods 3 survivors, and 2 survivors from Bismark. If u can find them, it's worth watching.

    • @Nyx_2142
      @Nyx_2142 Год назад +7

      It still amuses me that Hood was considered the "Pride of the British Fleet" when damn near every sailor I've heard or read talk about their time on her only had bad things to say about the ship itself and the state she was in (rusted and machinery was worn out and broken nearly constantly), and how she was obsolete years before the war was even on the horizon. I've heard from relatives of sailors that served on her years before the war, and luckily got transferred, talk about what a shitty state she was in. Feel like "Pride of the British Fleet" could've gone to many other ships that weren't an obsolete, rusted, and breaking down Battlecruiser from 1916.

    • @Prankester6856
      @Prankester6856 Год назад +6

      The main reason this task force was even assembled was because the Bismark was heading towards the Atlantic to reck havoc on the allied supply lines from the Americas the sinking of the hood only fuled the anger and determination to hunt it down, They literally called ships like the Rodny , the ark royal the aircraft carrier in the video from Gibraltar and probably 5 more ships from Scotland it just shows you how big of a threat this ship was

That ship took a 10,000 lbs bomb on the bow...and they patched it with a piece of steel and went to another harbor. These ships were scary! Awesome video Tank! I'm all about this!

    I guess you could say Sabaton fits one of the themes of power metal; they are akin to bards telling a story.In the case where other power metal bands tell often fictional stories of knights and elves, Sabaton tells the stories of people who lived, things that actually happened. They tell stories of impressive acts of valor, of behemoth war machines with a deadly reputations, with men who's strategy, about events, about people who shaped history for all time. I feel there's something deeper about that.

    Just found your channel (stumbled over your Blind Guardian reaction) and what I really really like about your reactions is, that you wait for a specific part of the song to be over before you pause the video. There are just so many reaction videos where the people pause the song during a solo, the chorus or a breakdown and that is hands down the worst thing you could do.
    Also the "tank facts" are awesome, it shows that you don't do the reactions just for the views, but also because you are interested in the music, the songs and the bands.
    Easily one of the best if not THE best reaction channel on youtube. Subscribed! Keep up the great work man \m/

    Fun Fact about this Bismarck video... Wargaming (A game developers known for World of Tanks and World of Warships) was in collaboration with Sabaton on this one, they are the one who made the CGI for the ships since the Bismarck itself was sunk during WWII and sits VERY deep on sea floor, so deep in fact that sunlight does not travel there anymore and the pressure is inhumanly high at this depth, so they ended collaborating with Wargaming so they could have great, realistic CGI of the Bismarck even though it was sunk so long ago.

    I love how, with Bismarck specifically, the music has those perfect shifts between what's going on. After they set down the sound for the song in the first minute or so, the torpedo hits the Bismarck's rudder, the beginning of the end, then the melody shifts at the bridge during the pitched battle between Bismarck and the Royal Navy task force, the guitar solo following the final torpedo sealing Bismarck's fate and the thudding intensity of the following section as the surviving sailor struggles to escape the sinking ship and get to safety and then a final temp shift as the young man is picked up by a Royal navy ship, carrying his Captain's compass carrying the last co-ordinates of the Bismarck. As a history lover, the details in this song and video bring a tear to my eye.
    I've seen Sabaton, lucky enough to see them in London before the Pandemic lockdown happened and they were AMAZING live. Other recommended tracks from both a musical and historical standpoint: 40-1, A Lifetime of War, No Bullets Fly, Shiroyama, Attack of the Dead Men and Seven Pillars of Wisdom.

    Whats up Tank, first time seeing you and as a Stagehand myself its nice to see someone who understands what it takes to make a music video/ show work react to something like this. On that point their stage shows when they are at something like Wacken is astounding, drum risers being made to look like tanks with firepots in the barrels and hazers in the Defensive smoke canisters of it are great, Animated planes flown above the deck with flashpots in the wingmounted guns. You start to wonder how much power and set up these guys need, also they all do movements and "hype" creating acts in time with the song and each other. These guys are truly stagemen for the ages.

    I’m glad you ended up really digging their sound. After listening to so much Nightwish, at least for me, it’s hard to fairly judge other vocalists cause Floor is superhuman. I’d recommend their newest live performance of “Attack of the Dead Men” if you want to see them do awesome stuff live. Equal production value when they play live as in many of their videos (And Hannes has a tank around his kit)

    They are awesome live. They were on tour with Nightwish in 2015. The lead singer for Sabaton was interacting with the crowd before the music even started. By cracking jokes and just firing up everyone there. One of the reasons why I love both Sabaton and Nightwish is that they are vary humble to their fans.
