This story is false. Not sure why it keeps getting pushed around, the real story is that the footage was taken to England and got over exposed and sadly they got destroyed. What's left is all that survived
The earliest, most graphic CBC D-Day landing craft Canadian soldiers struggling ashore movie clips were rushed back to London for processing, then promptly misfiled. They were relocated decades later, probably when all material had to be recopied onto more stable film stock.
Bet it wasn’t a “accident” during ww2 they didn’t want people back home to see the footage and show what they were actually going through the only footage they showed civilians back home at the time was pictures of soldiers smiling at cameras which they were told to smile.
@@anthonypolaczuk5047 😂😂 whatcha talking about? Officers are KNOWN to lose important paperwork all the time. 😂 Ask any active soldier how often their LES, ERB, promotion paperwork, BLC, JKO/AKO certs, or DA31's go missing and they have to go print or re-do it a bunch of times.
it is also pretty hard to record when your trying to land on a beach the ramp drops the people in the front get torn to shreds by the mg 42s and your running up a beach under heavy fire and some artillery
Robert Capa was the only photographer to land with the first wave on Omaha. After the battle the technician developing the photos was so excited by how they were turning out he got distracted and melted almost all the negatives Capa took of the first wave. That's why the 6 photos that survived were so blurry and it actually served as inspiration for the landing scene in Saving Private Ryan.
Was far from an accident, some was also burned by Ford if I remember correctly. That day messed up alot of the young and even older guys mentally specially the directors hired by the army to film the war.
Captain Ford is John Ford, one of the most famous film directors of all time, and there’s no account that he just dropped it in the ocean. There’s a myth that a Major associated with Ford dropped the tape, but historians don’t think there’s much validity to that. People really have to learn how to use google.
Ok when my son its 50 or 20 it will be the future advance technology i will tell him to make a time machine to catch the footage and bring it to the dude who film it
Just watch Saving Private Ryan for the amphib perspective and BoB for the airborne. SPR had veterans of the landing walking out of theaters because it was too real. Probably the most realistic depictions of those operations ever made.
Well the battle wasn’t over. It was sent while the fighting was ongoing. And that was just the American beaches. Lots survived from the British and Canadian ones.
at least thats better than the situation in egypt where even historical footage for the most basic things like army training , maneuverers and even news reels is hidden from the public
all you would see is a lot of people running on a beach or sitting on a hill getting their limbs and bodies completely torn apart with their brains and intestines getting blown out while struggling to push towards the hill with a shitload of bombs and gunfire going off everywhere trust me you probably don't want to see the actual footage
That is messed up man because many lost their lives on that beach and all we would see is men screaming in agony limbs and intestines all over the ground and that would mostly be traumatic for us to see or hear
Christ people maybe the man just wants to see the actual reality of the battle or just more footage from more people in the battle rather than just a few scenes that have been replayed over and over. I doubt the guy wants to see it just for the gore.
"choose a superpower." Me: *timetravels* Captain: "Who are you and why are you here?" Me: "I came to beat the heck out of you." meanwhile im beating the captain:*You damn irresponsible fool! why. the. heck. you. irresponsibly drop the damn frigging footages in the damn OCEAN!*
General macarthur didn't want and soldiers to watch the footages because of how gruesome the landings were. I forgot who it was, but one of the director who became a soldier to make war films was drunk because of how much soldiers were killed and was forced to go back after the landings.
and thats why in all media its always the same Boats get destroyed The MC survives to the shore MC rushes from cover to cover behind the X shaped metalic plates. MC gets to the wire fence and uses bangalores to destroy it. Then goes past some defenses either snipers or turrets or both. Then into a bunker and trough it. There it kinda ends unless they get like an objective to go destroy some Anti Air guns or even more bunkers
You cant really be casual like "you have one job" even though the Germans shot machine guns and your teammates head goes under his feet. You can't say "you have one job" when you have to jump off your landing hip, crawl in th ocean neck deep with 30-60 pounds of equipment on your back.
This feels like one of the things that time travel would be actually good to us, having footage of one of the greatest feats of war in mankind's history is something we just need
Actually, it wasn't dropped in the ocean. It was ruined because it was developed in too hot of a developer. That would require a shorter time in solution. In this case, the overdevelopment turned the film to black. FYI, normal development is 28°C/68°F. The film was Kodak Super X. The slower brother of the iconic Tri X that is still made today.
If they have given that footage to a private then it would have actually made it to the destination. Not surprised an officer dropped it into the ocean lol
I thought it got to the developers and they overdeveloped and destroyed most of the footage and photos? I know Robert Capa, famous war photographer, lost like 80% of his photos due to a mess up during development back home.
Yo dude way to bring that back up Jesus man I'm sure his family was relieved when. You brought that back up like phewweew man people almost forgot thanx pal awwww man there prob mad as hell buddy but thanx for the info
