Gotta love how almost everything that could go wrong did go wrong
Sad..
@@nytp2822 why is it sad?
On both sides. The Coast Guard had a little more luck, but higher-ups and the FBI almost dropped the ball.
@@Wosp-does-stuff sad as in disappointed of how embarrassing the defeat was.
@@Ulaanbasaar he doesn't ask you. And you answer is no brainer type of answer.
Can we all agree that this guy's voice really make these videos that much better👍
Yes
yepp
Yup.
Yep. Better than the other guy
@@jbalvinfan2762 get out
Less than 10 men vs the entire American industrial complex. Flawless plan.
Germany did not see what happened to Japan yet did they
It only takes one man to destroy our electrical grid and throw us into chaos. Our enemies know this and they have tried several times to destroy our electrical grid. Weve shot down drones, arrested folks, were lucky we have a smart people working hard everyday to stop terrorist attacks.
Call of duty missions
The point wasn't to entirely stop it genius...just to hinder it and weaken it wherever possible...
It just seemed destined to fail. Little recon, shoddy logistics, and questionable personal selection being key failings. While small forces can be successful these where really just guys let loose with abysmal chances of success.
I love how mutiple governments constantly prove their incompetence, over and over and over again. Yet people still believe in these same governments to keep us safe and have our best interest at heart.
This was 80 years ago. But nice try though.
@@reesesmith1535 Umm... It still happens today?
Things aren't always so simple and black and white.... id trust the government before id trust a small groups screaming its incompetent... anarchy would be much worse
@@S3NDP13 how
@Balto the Wolf ?... cause that's the only options... believe it or not
That is so unfair. The guy literally confessed the whole plan and still got 30 years in prison
Those poor, poor Nazis :(
bruh 30 yrs is still good given he's the enemy of the state
@@MegaAwesomedude234 sarcastic right?
@@Hello-tg1fz of course haha
he was released in 1948 sooo yes he was sentened to 30 years in prison but only served about 5 years
With the amount of WWII movies coming out in recent years, I'm surprised this hasn't been made into a movie yet.
There's so much interesting exploits of ww2 that could be made into movies. But a majority tend to focus on the Holocaust or Americans in Europe
@@Sean-bz8ri it’s disappointing that they can’t make a WW2 movie without it being Holocaust focused.
Is there a movie about nazis being in the antarctic?
Starring the rock and kevin hart
So the lesson here I guess is if you’re in a horrible situation and can’t escape it don’t go to the government because they’ll still give you 30 years and take all the credit for your help lol :)
and if you feel patriotic dont feel it towards a government because they are all evil just some are able to get away with less then others.
Spy's landed in Maine too and were quickly arrested. My grandfather knew someone who worked at the black point inn in Scarborough Maine and she said two men wearing heavy coats with German accents came in one night and got a room. The next morning they were gone and she had said that she had been Told not to tell anyone who they were and what happened to them and not to talk about it. So nearest we can figure they landed and tried something similar
There were 3 targets these men were going to destroy which included Grand Central Terminal's sub basement which had massive generators for electric trains that could be destroyed using sand, The horseshoe curve near Altoona that used for mainline railroad traffic, and the Hellgate Bridge which also used by the Pennsylvania Railroad for carrying passengers into New York City via Penn Station.
Kinda of dumb, they would have repaired all that in Weeks. The Whole US was firing on all cylinders at the Time. It was a working machine
Well as an American, I see Dasch & Berger as heroes. Thank you for doing your duty to protect this country more than the FBI did.
...
They were traitors to their race, and contributed to the mess we are all in today
Exactly! They showed their Loyalty to the United States.
Infographics. I cant express how much I love you guys.
Area's they wanted to target:
New York, NY: Hudson Tunnels (Amtrak today)
PA, Horseshoe Curve, Altoona shops (Norfolk Southern today), Bethlehem Steel (& others)
Ohio/PA: Ohio Railroad Bridge (CSXT today)
Ohio: Erie Canal (And Neil Armstrong would have never made it to the moon), the city of Lima (Lime-ah) (for locomotive & tank production)
Chicago, Il: All railroad hubs, & shipyards.
How were only 9 people going to sabotage the entire industrial capacity of the US?
I thought the same thing, my first thought is it might have been a test run to see if it was successful before committing more resources. But even just blowing up a few places would force the US to use resources defending factories and other locations while causing fear in Americans maybe decreasing the publics support of the war. So maybe that was what they were really hoping would be the outcome.
You would be surprised at what people could do back then, even without 21st century technology.
the fundamentalization come from the WWl where the germany send agents to the middle east to spread the idea of the big war was a sacred war of the islam, the plan was not really succeful but not a total fail.
of course the Germany were extremely arrogant to suppose the organization of America were so basic as the middle east.
@@andrewyerian214 9 people couldn't have made a dent in the US industrial capacity during WWII even with 21st century technology.
Of course, that's excluding modern weapons of mass destruction.
9 men with guns and bombs
This should be a movie!!!
Yes
It is. Watch the German Series "Das Boot".
10 episodes I think
Those two who confessed should of been let go or turned into double agents
I like the idea but saboteurs aren't spies, so they don't make very good double-agents. You can't send them back to counter-sabotage, you can't feign sabotage to convince the axis their saboteurs are succeeding, and you can't use them to send back disinfo because they're not spies. Could've kept the two guys and used them to train counter-saboteur intelligence tho
So many things went wrong you’d think this was satire instead of a true story
Why no one made a movie on this??? Fascinating!
The mafia was protecting the NYC docks and nothing happened
Makes me laugh everytime you hear how crooked and despicable our government is lol
*was
@@lazerbeamAndCo Still is and always will be.
@@lazerbeamAndCo nope still IS*
@@lazerbeamAndCo was? You mean our government today isn’t crooked ?
I think its all governments not just the US. Its why ill never understand socialists. Do you really want to give the government even more power over your life and trust them to be fair about it?
I love infographics such great content and super entertaining I learned more watching these videos then all highschool keep them coming great job
25 seconds dam that is my record
52 secs .. my personal record.
I Feel it. 💯🤘🏻
My great grandmother actually was there in Ponte Vedra Beach when the men came ashore, she was out with one of her best friends and hid under the boardwalk when she saw men coming. She later reported it to the Jacksonville sheriffs office and The St. John’s county sheriff
Wow. Awesome
@@SpringfieldProductions in college it was cool to tell the full story when we went over WW2 in the history of Florida class I was taking, essentially she was on a walk while staying at a friends house who lived in south jax beach, she saw a weird looking shape on the horizon that looked a little darker than the ocean did. The SS Gulfamerica sunk a month or two earlier cause of a uboat so they waited to see if they could get a better look, when they saw a rowboat come ashore they hid under the boardwalk in the dunes and they said that when they landed they hopped in a black car and drove north.
There was ,and still is a big german ethic in the US ,so it's amazing that actually nothing happend on american soil .
What do you mean? The US is literally filled with undercover, and open nazis. But hey, what do I know
Idk I doubt that Germans would take up arms against the country they’re living in and most likely have their whole late based in just because they were born there or have family who was. People knew that Germany were evil and if life is good for you and you’re not an extremist you most likely wouldn’t risk and most likely lose your life for something like that
You forget that the Nazis terrorized the German citizens too. America at the time was heaven.
@@borisquince6302 yeah, a heaven for people of a certain color complexion. Japanese-Americans were in internment camps, Mexican-Americans were being attacked by Navy sailors, as well as being misplaced and forced out of their homes by the US Government, to build said internment camps, and were being sent to Mexico, while being stripped of their citizenship. African-Americans, and Black Americans were still facing harsh segregation as well as racial discrimination. But you're right, America was a haven, for a select group of people.
@@milehighgambler I think the conversation was an inquisition into why the German immigrants did not ally with the Nazis against America domestically. In that case, we are comparing their life in Germany, to that in the US 🤔
You should do a video on the german spies escapades in Ireland during the war
Faxs
I am from Long Island and I have been to the Montauk Lighthouse, the farthest east point on the island. They have little shacks still there from WWII to prevent naval attacks as well as a huge radar
I'm from Long Island too. It's so interesting how many WWII relics are all over the place. I live near old Grumman hangers that use to build war planes. Now they get rented out by movie studios. One of the spider man movies was filmed in there.
-reads Nazis- OK TIME TO LEARN ABOUT MY GERMAN CULTURE
Your videos are awesome ❤️
well that plan worked on wolfenstein 😂
When your own spies start defecting, usually it means you're fighting for the wrong cause.
How about the time japanese dropped incendiary bombs in California trying to create massive forest fires? I would love to see you guys do a video on that topic
Yes I'm interested
Ah yes, the attack that killed about less than a dozen people. Noteworthy…
I love these WW2 vids
Congratulation on getting 11M subs
Are we gonna ignore how one of them is named Ernst Peter *Burger*
Crazy to think there was a U-boat close to where I'm at years ago (Jacksonville FL)
They really just sabotaged themselves 🤣🤣👏🏼👏🏼
It's like when you and the boys do something bad and the whole group agrees not to tell on eachother, Dasch is that one boy that tells on everyone hoping he won't get into trouble.
Sounds familiar right now. Don't talk Don't tell no matter what.
And then Burger is the other kid that doesn’t want to get in trouble
I read a fun story a while back about nazis sending agents to Gaspesie to make their way to montreal.....all without speaking any french and very little english lol
I ❤️this channel
I love this channel! ever since the smile dog video I've loved it since.
I love your channel keep up the great stuff
This needs a movie
6:16. The u boat soldier has SS bolts.
I'm subbed at the start of your vids I was there I hope everyone enjoys your channel as much as we do
Dash and Burger sound like heros. The FBI took the credit and still dogged them.
They were our enemies!
Saboteurs with the heart of gold BRIBES enemy soldier and thinks everything will go just fine.
I’m from Jacksonville and that stories interesting because it’s a little known thing
Wish they would make a Netflix series of this !!! LOLOL
How is this not a movie yet
I’m born raised and currently live in south Jamaica queens and i never knew this and i pride myself on knowing my hoods history
The statue of liberty is kaput :)
00:29 to about 00:40 seconds in:
I love how what looks to be a friggen Maus is being portrayed in _1942_
If uk wasnt fighting germany. And it was legit germany vs usa in ww2 America would've got steamrolled
J Edgar Hoover was just the worst
Know there
Hitlers voice:
UH UH HUH HUH UHHHH!!!
I choked.
3:24 why is Iran and the Caspian Sea missing
this should be a Movie.
The U-Boot on the thumbnail looks like it's angry
Current like to dislike ratio:
👍8K 👎121
Wait! What happened next! How do we know all this? Did he write a book or go to the press?
This video, but every time you hear Burger, you exaggerate about it
Ah, the good ol' "fake an STD to avoid work" excuse!
It is awesome to watch infographics show on youtube I like what would happen if you didn't brush you're teeth for 1 week
If done right, this would make a fire Netflix series 🔥
This was a very interesting video.
Well sometimes when you plan something it does not always work out
I’m from Long Island me and my family Have been to that exact spot.
1:25 why is the caspian sea land and Iran is a sea?
Thanks for the tutorial bro
They used to draw swastikas all over elevator walls back in the early 80’s in Lefrak City
What a waste of manpower. Steiner could have used those men
Don’t mind me a ten year old watching this at 7:06 in the ‘mornin
This would make a great movie
Nice video
4:27 sabotage the sabotage 😂
These are the best videos they post alongside the serial killer ones
What about the ones they didn’t catch
is there a subtle bell ringing in the background of this episode?? its making my ears flip out//// guess i cant listen to this anymore, made it almost 7 min in before it gave me a crushing headache
This voice actor really gets around.
How many times did they say “sabatours”?
What year was this?!? I think I have a news paper article from it
The background music makes no sense in this one 😭
Have a great day God love y’all
That station master was low key sus for just incinerating mysteriously discovered wet clothing
I have a book about this exact subject
Imagine because of being late you do a better job than your co-workers
I'm here because this video was spamming my notification to watch it
Legit same
The Nazis real plan we did not know about but was right under our noses. Here we are today significantly more divided as a society.
Sup
Sup
Sounds like the plot of a comedy film!
XD everything gone wrong
Jesus imagine faking an STD just to not go on a mission you volunteered for and honestly they would've had a better chance if they'd all gotten jobs working in factories. They would've been closer to the US war effort and could've actually done some damage. Thank goodness some of them never wanted to go through with it.
Crazy that it's still working huh
*Whole Lotta Abu Hajaar Activity*
This would be one funny movie
how did this plan go over so badly💀
I did a book report on it this yera
1:34 what happened to iran?
Hoover ego is disgusting.
Let supoort world war 3
I was sad that it did not worked, so fixed it.... in HOI4
