For anyone who does not get it: Many of German tanks in WW2 had to be started via a crank at the back side. It was more of a failsafe when it could not be started electronically
Some WW2 aircraft had this as well. They were called inertial starters, basically a bunch of weights that you'd get spinning really fast using mechanical advantage. All that force you put in over a few minutes of vigorous turning would get stored as spinning motion, then when they started the engine it would all get released at once. The tool made it look like it was a wind-up toy. Some aircraft were light enough that they would be started by a mechanic literally spinning the propeller really hard. This did have the unfortunate consequence of breaking knuckles or even removing fingers if done incorrectly though, as well as getting more difficult to do as engines got more powerful and bigger. Granted, I'm not too familiar with WW2 tanks, so this could be a different mechanism such as a ratcheting spring arrangement.
Germany:*starts his old Tiger I and proceeds to invade france. France: "wtf germany?" Germany: "sorry, old habbit." Edit: sorry, I missed identified it
The first time I saw the original, I 100% believed that this could be real, you know, the whole music when handcranking thing. The panther (the tank shown in the video) and the tiger both had field manuals specifically written in a comedic and laid-back way, so I genuinely thought it was just an extension of that. “For a fun Easter egg, try starting your engine using the hand crank sometime!” Type thing, or maybe as an incentive to try and do it instead of leaving the tank for scrap. Only a few minutes later did I realize that playing a Prussian marching song in Soviet territory when your tank is not currently on and you are outside would be a horrible idea, regardless of if it was meant to keep the crew happy.
As a german, I will say, that I enjoy the enthusiam from the ball, as it perfectly reflects my own. And the Preußen Gloria is just phenominal. Love it. Such class and tradition from our wonderful country. Nice, little animation. I approve of it.
As an German....... 50 - 60% might go to restart the Vehicles in the storage hangars as we have just..... "Sparprogramm'd" our military. Not to forget we might atleast one Gepard to be a threat to Russia's helos but we had disbanded it. Soooooo..... Don't worry. It might take a while.
Russia invades Ukraine, the direct neighbor of Poland. Germans: "Aaah, it is time now..." *adds 100 billion to its military budget. *start reving up their tanks. *Poland is sweating nervously.
