Baron Jean Michel de Selys Longchamps was on a mission with his Wingman Sergeant Andre Blanco. The Baron was a Belgian aristocrat. When the mission was done, he sent his wingman home to continue on a personal mission alone. The Baron had heard that the Gestapo had captured and ended the life of his father...and now he was out for revenge. His plan was exceptionally daring. He was to fly over the rooftops of occupied Brussels and shoot the Gestapo building with his Hawker Typhoon. This was a personal vendetta unsanctioned by the Royal Airforce. A brave action that was to lift the spirits of the citizens of occupied Belgium and strike fear into the German oppressors.

I can’t play it because I’m on mobile
Nice
I'm so happy you came out with a new video just made my friday!!! I really missed the new videos
Yes another free bonus pack in warthunder thanks yarnhub
Lol level 40 major war thunder ranked player is here!!!!
He not only got his revenge and disrupted enemy operations; he gave hope to his people that one day they would be free again.
Giving hope to a conquered people is more valuable than killing 4 German generals. Incredible flying skills with Incredible bravery.
@@joeverna5459 at least 4, but I doubt it was just 4.
Hope can be the best weapon people can have. It allows for smarter decisions, perseverance, etc. Even if 3 people have RPGs, if they have no hope, they are much less likely to succeed. Someone with only a pistol can be giga chad because they have hope, despite being out gunned and out numbered.
@@Panzer_links.
But remember.
Never have a Hope of Survival.
Always Prepare for death in War.
Because those who let their guard down and had hope for survival.
Almost always died.
The africans that Belgium massacred: yeet
The absolute dread and deafening scream that a typhoon would instill in any knowledgeable gestapo officer if they identified it, plus the sight of it slowly leveling off into a perfect strafing run would be just stunning. Always great videos from the Yarnhub team.
I always thought: "Why did they remain at the window?"
Then I remembered that the whole thing should have taken less than half a minute from his last pass by to the rounds being shot, and out of these, one would need about 20 seconds to get out of the building.
So the nazi scum was dead the moment they decided to investigate what was making all that noise instead of running for their worthless lives.
Sadly, there were some civilians (germans and belgians) on the building, even if very few. But if anything, the nazi were never entitled to recruit people to aid in their sick activities, hence any civilian killed in the responsible and calculated pursuit of neutralizing nazi officials is something the bastards themselves are to be held accountable for.
That's the moment you realize you're about to die, and deep down you know you deserve it.
Imagine if he'd been able to get that approved as a target.
@@bcwoodell Then it wouldn't be so amazing
@@bcwoodellt’s what I call “Ultra” Top Secret. When you’re the only one that knows information leaks are unlikely…
I'm pretty sure going like "fuck it" and destroying your enemies's base is the dream of everyone during war time and the madlad actually did it. He must have had the biggest grin of satisfaction on his face when going back to base
The most dangerous type of person is an individual with nothing left to lose.
@@c0ya1 joint dangerous is those with no escape. A cornered rat fights hardest
the animating and story telling is so _immaculate_

A round of applause for Yarnhub!
With a resounding yes. Someone get yarnhub a much deserved honer. The story was well told. Much respect is here. Well done yarnhub.
Flying past the building to draw the Gestapo to the windows, and THEN lighting up the building with cannon fire was a brilliant move!
Too bad he didn't have rockets-!
Oh crap I just realized that! Using the noise as a distraction!
@@ltcarlsen2152 nah not as a distraction, as a means of drawing attention. He wanted the officers at the windows rather than deeper in the building as they likely were initially so that he would be more likely to kill them.
Not just that, but also checking out if it was really used by gestapo or a civilian building.
Such incredible animation! You guys helped to get so many people interested in history! Including myself! Thank you all! Love from Canada! 🇨🇦

Noice.
Like your picture.
@@dinoroar12 haha! Well thank you! I never really get this many likes! Have a great rest of your day!
@@PetterVessel thanks! It’s a Norwegian flag on a shield as I am also Norwegian! I like yours as well lol!
I already knew this story (as a belgian myself from Namur). I'm glad that my country is put into the spotlight. 'Cause we don't speak enough about bravery of our ancestors in the WWs Thanks a lot Yarnhdub !
If you enjoy that bravery being celebrated, you might enjoy the songs Race to the Sea and Resist and Bite, both about Belgian valour in WWI and WWII respectively!
Do type here where we can visit and honour this pilot's statue. Thanks.
@@pogotst5359 Brussels
same here bro im from west-flanders and visited that building 2 years ago on a familly trip
There's also the great WWI song 3 Cheers for Little Belgium! A great song for a brave nation!
As a belgian I highly appreciate this video!

Ik ook
me too (im not belgian)

I keep watching this over and over but never stop loving it more and more
I'm Belgian and this sent shivers through my spine. Thank you
I didn't know about this event such a brave man to show his love for his country. No wonder you are so proud.
I am NOT a Belgian, and it STILL sent shivers through my spine
Yarnhub's graphics are so realistic man 🔥🔥
5:43 goosebumps 😱
Sarcasm?
Let's go Belgium! May his patriotic, Belgian blood be forever among us and forever be respected by your fellow countryman. 🇧🇪❤️
imagine the feelings of the father. Like your son tought you are dead and he avenges you by litting up an entire building of gestapo officers.
Proudest dad on the planet. It's just such a shame that the man didn't survive the war!
So sad that Jean was killed 8 months after this wonderful solo sortie. He was obviously chock full of courage.
Word is after they widened the fuselage of his Typhoon (to properly accommodate the man's enormous balls) the plane wasn't as good in flight...very sad.
I restored the entrance door of this building when i worked in Brussels in 2017. And every day i passed by his statue on Winston Churchill Avenue. We Belgian are little rebels. It's terrible that he died. But freedom has a high price that sadly no one remembers. But thanks to you keep up the good work! The past is our present and our present build the future, we have to know our history if we want to advance and evolve!
Seeing how good you guys do work like this, the movie was SABATON is gonna be so good. I really can’t give you guys enough praise for the amazing animation, storytelling and historical authenticity of your show. Amazing work Yarnhub!
What a legacy he left behind! A true patriot to remind the citizens what country they lived in and who they are. The flag was a excellent touch. He reminded them that it was still their country and the only way to get it back was to fight for their home. Damn, this guy was a true inspiration.
The Typhoon was a crazy hard fighter to fly and filled with tons of issues. You had to not only be a insanely good pilot to fly one but also insane.
But his op played to all the Typhoon's strengths - speed at low level and big payload.
Brilliant animations. They keep getting better every video. Fantastic work.
The fact that he did not survive to meet with his father after the war almost made me tear up :'(
He raised an awesome son.
Such a heartwarming story. Only wrinkle was the fact he didn't survive the war. But excellent animation & superb storytelling nonetheless!
Near the end when his CO is dressing him down, he has the most perfect "I apologize for nothing" look ever.
There were so many REAL heroes in those dark days. Another amazing video! Well done Yarnhub!
Thank you for the support!
That was beautiful. Not only did he rip the gestapo a new one, but he also rallied the Belgians to stand up against those tyrants.
"Hello! My name is Jean Michel Longchamps! You killed my father! Prepare to die!"
First chuckle I have had for a long time. Thanks
The “good job man” killed me lol
As a Belgian, I have never heard of this story before. Thank you for sharing this. That Baron, what a man.
Respect to this man! Too bad he didn’t get to live to see the end of the war. Or find out that his father was alive.
Seems like the kind of pilot superiors hate, patriots love, and enemies fear. In short, a good man
You want aggressive, sometimes that strays into "loose cannon" country.
Good summary
As usual, amazing story. I know this story but the way you render these stories in this channel is second to none. Keep the amazing work!
I swear, the videos are like getting to watch a movie, the animations, the camera angles, everything. I finish watching the video learning more than what my history teacher teaches me (but to be fair he usually gets really off topic but still) thank you for these videos!
These animations are like small budget movies and seem even more realistic than the CGI that marvel has used in its latest films. Thank you for this.
One of the things my grandfather left to me was his book, Le Livre d’Or de La Resistance Belge, or The Golden Book of The Belgian Resistance, of which he had been a member of during the war. The baron’s story is in the book and I read it as a child. An amazing feat.
6:22 hope he took out lots of Gestapo.😊
Credits to all the brave Belgians in history! People always look at the brits, soviets, americans, and germans, but we don't hear enough about the stories of Belgian bravery in the World Wars. Good day to all of you here, and may your country never see war again.
Three is enough, but if we need a fourth, we're ready.
Given the unbelievable incompetence the Belgian government exhibited in the first days of WW2 I am not surprised people forgot about them... Belgians...
@@theotherohlourdespadua1131 Eh, people just forgot us in history. Nobody know that without us, the German would have won WW1. The story of the Soldier King. Nobody know for the Chasseur Ardennais, that gave another opportunity to the French Army (we got the plan of invasion, the French just not believe us).
People forget all the time that we where the second most powerful economy of the world for decade.
Nobody know us, because all Belgium is focused around is herself. And, frankly, that's not bad.
@@gameknightjek2640 No, because Belgium it's small European state.
It can't seriously influence on whole European and world politic.
@@Leantenant *is the headquarter of NATO, EU, EU leader (charle michelle) is belgian, 7nd economy of europe, but yeah we probably have no influence on EU. *
Mate, respect us a bit, we are not a great power but we are far from a little state with no economy or diplomacy.
May his heroic action be remember even if another war broke out. I salute that man for his brave action for his home.
3:58 Such poetic wording
The hawker typhoons needs more videos.
These videos always feel expertly crafted, keep up the good work and great videos
That is some down-home heroic inspirational shit right there...great work by all concerned, thanks.
2:50 Is.. that a computer telling him he left the target zone? 👓
When I read the title of the video, it got my attention. Coincidentally, this happened on the same day that I was born which made me wide-eyed because I never heard of this event until now. This man had a goal, and he was determined to get his revenge whether if got in an honor or in trouble. Either way, he was prepared for the consequences. Thank you for sharing this video.
The two 15 second unskippable ads before the video started was very worth it.
Now that’s a real hero. God bless this brave man.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
YASSS I ACTUALLY GOT HERE ON TIME!
Great story and Animation Yarnhub! You never fail to deliver!
Honestly,Your videos never get old.No matter how many times I watch them I never get bored, It's amazing !! same can't be said for a lot of other RUclipsr's videos according to me. I really like your videos by far my favorite youtube channel.
old.no is not meant to be a link
yeah it does that like.this
@@thewhitesloth9408 i know it's unintentional but the website is kinda cool, thanks for introducing me to that
07:33 „Scheiße! Gott im Himmel!“ lmao
We used our best Commando picture book German in this one....
@@Yarnhub haha the accent is a little unusual but you definitely nailed that saying
So wonderfully narrated, animated, and scored! Moving, stirring even - happy and sad and happy and so on - bittersweet.
4:20 literal meaning of ‘did I ask’
Baron: I wanna shoot at the Gestapo building!
Officer: Baron, no.
Baron: Yes.
Officer: No.
Baron: Yes.
Officer: No.
Baron: Too bad, I'm doing it anyway!
*Many bullets fired and Beligan flags tossed later*
Officer: Are you crazy!? You're demoted!
Private: Hey, sire, look at this! *Hands Officer newspaper*
Officer: I- Wow...
Baron: Told you it would work.
Officer: Just take this Distinguished Flying Cross and shut up before I lose my job!
Great video, btw!
i don't know if this info is written somewhere else as a fact of war,
but a french historian/youtube creator "l'odieux connard" told this story at a convention and added
"After the incident, the gestapo had to replace the building AA defense because it was wreck in the attack. And they had to increase the security + create a secure perimeter around the building because half of Brussel was happily passing by to trash talking them about their defeat by a single aircraft."
Shame he didn't make it through the war.... Good man. 🤙
Makes you feel proud to be Belgian, despite not being a Belgian.
Another of my ancestors earned the soubriquet of being the original tire-dents of Waterloo. Beware!
I am a belgian, and i love this vid, little countries like belgium are mostly ignored if people talk about WW2
@@victory9161 Not by me, I'm the mind behind the Watermael takeover ten years back and a descendant of Louis Nestor Guiot, who won the Chevalier de l'Ordre de Léopold with Oak Leaves, twice, at the First Battle of the Yser in 1914. It bought the time needed to blow the sluices at Nieupoprt, and if he hadn't succeeded, French would be a dead language by now. He's remembered most as the Mayor of Oostende who got seaside tourism started in a big way in the interwar years.
IKR
@@JelMain Respect.
Several times, my wife & I stayed at a hotel just down the street from there. I recognized the building in the thumbnail. Seeing that place made me smile, knowing what happened in '43. Nice video!
Its really obvious when faces are shown, Man your animations have improved a lot!
This one might be my top 3 Yarnhub videos for sure. In terms of animation it's your guys best work yet. You guys do these stories so much justice, keep it up :D
The end was a plot twist.
He flew to revenge his father but turn out his father was alright.
Perfect timing for my chaotic lunch period, wonderful job guys! Also looking forward to the upcoming movie!
Bien que je sois un spécialiste de la seconde guerre mondiale et spécialement de l'aviation, je ne connaissais pas cette histoire. Beau travail, audacieux et avec un peu de chance, car il n'a pas été intercepté par la chasse allemande.
I love this story. I didn't know that the Baron's father was actually alive, though. Wikipedia didn't mention that.
This was one of the best videos of yarnhub, it's so cenamatic.
Man, the way they animate his officer was hilarious. Definitely a roller coaster of emotions right there.
As a Belgian and long time fan of this channel, thank you for this
An absolutely lovely story. Yarnhub tells these magnificent tales so well. This is one of the many reasons I absolutely love this channel.
Your videos just get better. Keep it up. The animation is just awesome. And you gave Brussels the animation it deserves. I have been watching you for years and every video is better. As a history buff I cant get enough. Good job.
How to know That someone is a great story teller?
1-British identity
2-Correct facts
3-Having so much people loving him ❤❤❤❤(i love him too lol)
Your awesome "mini movies" keep giving me chills, another masterpiece!
Yet another amazing video, I've heard stories of this before but never to this detail, well done, Yarnhub
The suspense I felt watching this is really something else.
I like how he says "And if u want to embark on a bombing run" so casually.
That dolly zoom & fade to black at 3:32 was just perfect at conveying the emotion of the moment. Well done Yarnhub, if I could subscribe again, I would.
This content is too good for RUclips. History Channel hardly makes anything this enjoyable. Every episode leaves me wanting more . . . CAN'T WAIT FOR THE FULL LENGTH MOVIE
8:02 ANGY SATISFACTION
good animation + good technical codes and camera technique + good story telling + digital literacy of the channel and the creators behind it = good content
The directing here is amazing! Even though, It's animated, you really feel like sitting next to Jean Michel in his furious flying just above the rooftops. Amazing story, that's amazingly animated. The Yarnhub team has my bow!
The quality one this one is amazing
I really love this channel i joined you guys when you had 25k-15k subscribers and i really remember when your videos were so informative and now you have like 600k more subscribers and yet i never get board. you really do a amazing job on these videos. Keep it up!
Agree, if i knew my family was killed i would do crazy things too.
PD, of course now im gonna play with the Typhoon in WT
One of my favorite stories from the war. Thank you Yarnhub for the excellent presentation!
7:44 i love how the "scheisse, Gott im Himmel" sounds
its really funny if u hear people taht aren't from germany trying to speak german it has a funny accent
The story telling and the animation amazing i appreciate the hard work u guys put in these
A few small corrections to the comment: the RAF always forbade de Sélys-Longchamps to carry out this mission, because a member of the resistance had infiltrated the Gestapo personnel. This man was killed during the attack and the Gestapo found on his body a list of a resistance network in Belgium. Most of the people on this list were arrested and killed... On his return, de Sélys-Longchamp was blamed for his disobedience, and demoted, despite the medal he subsequently received. And didn't die in combat, but while landing, when the fuselage of his Typhoon broke in two.
Well done! I would love to see a "remake" in the Twilight Zone with myself and the Great Baron flying a pair of F4 Phantoms into Brussles to make those jackwads wearing skull hats into fertilizer. My 'time machine" is currently on the Fritz .... yeah, bad capacitors ..... one can dream of glory? "Afterburners through town!" I love the story.... the Baron was / is a true hero .... the world needs more of these folks! Thank you for creating! Well done folks! I now know why I need to admire this person, and their great contribution to the "race of human beings"! I love you guys for sharing!
It looks like Sabaton has another good song to write!
It's amazing on the graphics, its like the real thing
Thanks A LOT Yarnhub for setting this act of bravery into the spotlights ! Amazing video & storytelling ! As a Belgian myself, from Brussels, I deeply appreciate. I knew the story of course, from my grandfather who fought alongside with the Belgian armed resistance, but I never heard of the part with the flags spreaded in the streets &/or dropped onto the Palace of Laeken's rooftop... Thus, any intel about your sources concerning that precise point would be appreciated !
Now this, is a well-done documentary, cinematic style. 💯
Great narration, great animations.
I truly wish I had a PC able to run UE5... I would finally be able to edit/create videos like this video.
AAaaaAAaaAAnD We're back! Welcome back you beautiful folk. Looking as wonderful as ever.
Keep up the great work and riveting tales! I hope you got the break you deserved!
You have my unwavering support as always.
He should have gone round for another run.
Ah yes another legendary video made by Yarnhub! I always watch every video and dayum it seems like I can't stop to like it!
Awesome story and animation. The whole thing sounds like a movie plot but it actually happened. Respect to the Baron pilot.
Each and every episode tops the last one...and I keep thinking "There's no way to top the last one..." G R E A T J O B !!!
I LOVE stories of patriotism and people standing up against tyranny. One of my favorite patriotic stories is that of Witold Pilecki and the what he did to undermine his enemies. It needs to be told. You need to tell it. Welcome back 😉
Damn, these animations are getting amazing
3-4 more vids and we might get photorealistic
Keep up the great work 👍
Im learning far more about war and tank cannons and ship cannons than I would in my history classes. Well animated video, beautiful narration, and just an amazing video over all. Looking forward to more amazing stories to immortalize the heroes of war.
Another masterpiece by Yarnhub.
The typhoon is my favorite plane ever and I play war thunder. I love this vid the animation is amazing but what a mad lad
You've left the target zone
Finally the legend uploaded
