Amazing. My wife used to metal detect and says great finds always came out after a tree fell, from the hole or roots, on battlegrounds. Be nice you were able to get that brass 20mm deactivated ! Thanks for taking us along !
Participated in the recovery of a P-47. Struck by AA fire killing the engine while straffing a train, it flew through a telephone line before the pilot climbed to 500 ft and baled out - survived to evade ca 6 mths in Belgium before capture then liberated on the 'Ghost Train'. Pilot jumped at max height of climb - so P-47 did a nose dive from there. First things found were wings (ca 2-3 ft) then machine guns/ammo (ca 4-5 ft) and finally, the engine, cockpit and tail section compressed into a single block about 5-6 ft long. The 'Pit' dug to recover all was ca 15 ft deep. Recovered the pilots First Aid kit. The bandages and all else in it were still in perfect condition.
Very nice finds HH and EE. Sounds like EE is growing up. His voice has gotten deeper. Time flies HH. Glad to see you are able to spend lots of time with your son. Looking forward to more adventures. 👍
what you found is probably parts of the wings, because the 20mm cannons were located in the wings. maybe they got cut off while the plane went through the trees.. parts of the hull (and maybe the pilot) could be not far away then..
Remember though that 82 years ago these trees hadn't even started growing. Probably no way of knowing if there were even any trees in that area back then. There more than likely were but not these ones.
That was amazing. You actually found such an elusive crash site with great research and persistence. I'm quite surprised that the main thing that was left behind was the ammunition, as I would have thought that ammo would have been quite valuable to the Germans. Nonetheless I'm so happy we got to explore this place with you, and that you were able to pinpoint so many pieces. Can't wait for what you have coming up as well! Thanks 🙂
You definitely found proof of the tragic 1942 FW190 crash. The research and travel to the site paid off. Success yet again. Those plane parts will make some awesome shadowboxes. Thank you, EE and HH for sharing. ❤❤
Research, hard work, and persistence pays off again! That was a great find in the tree, who would have believed it held so many 20mm rounds! Great work guys! Thanks HH and EE for taking us along on another history explore!
Definitely a great find thanks to all the research and the hike in! Those 20mm rounds were really something else. Great find especially finding the ones that were in the tree. Will be looking forward to seeing the other part that will be coming.
We totally agree my friend and even though it was raining all day it really was worth the time. Glad we could share that with you and thanks for your FANTASTIC support :)
Hiya HH team 👋🏻👋🏻🫵🏻🫵🏻 Amazing find you guys, you should be employed as crashed aircraft locators 😂 See you soon for more of your outstanding 5 week trip 🇬🇧🫶🏻🇳🇴
Great job, mates. Betting it plowed the ground really well. They more than likely salvaged the armament and instruments. The findings are tremendous and proof positive of the crash. Stay safe and well.
Great job locating the crash site. Most of the plane must have been salvaged. I think the brass rounds are probably the tracer rounds, which might explain the 4g stamp. Thank you and EE for taking us along. Can't wait for more of this trip. Stay safe and keep smiling. 😊
The research and hard work certainly paid off! This was an awesome adventure. You both usually do find evidence of whatever youre looking for. I do enjoy it when you find find it in a big way. Take care and stay safe. 💖💯
Great work guys! Glad to see all that hard work finding the crash site payed off! It's obvious the Fw hit hard from the way all those 20mm are scattered about, with bits of the belt still attached. Finding that bakelite piece was magic. That piece you found is most likely part of the electronic gear from either the cockpit itself or just behind it in the fuselage. And well done finding all those 20mm in the tree trunk! That was a great find! Wonder if they were placed there during the initial clean up and forgotten, or maybe it was a section of the 20mm ammo belt that landed there, and the tree grew up around it. Still, an amazing find, and awesome proof all your research was spot on. Fantastic work as usual, and another fascinating location with some amazing finds! Really looking forward to more amazing locations from the Tour! Cheers to you both! Stay Well!
Yes my friend , what about that. That was so much fun and so interesting to find. Strange actually that we found both brass and iron casings.. Great explore and thanks for your great support :)
CONGRATS on finding the evidence in the Focke-Wulf FW 190!!! Great investigation in picking this mystery. So glad you and EE found it. It was like looking for that "needle" in the hay stack and you guys found evidence in it. Great adventure!!!
I used to live on the south west coast of Norway when I was a kid. There was German bunkers behind my old house which was also the former site for a camp for Russian POWs held by the Wehrmacht. There's history everywhere, even though there was no major battles fought there by the allies.
You found a super rare bullet tree :D Such a cool find, and was well worth the effort of searching in the rain. Can't wait to see the follow up video, no idea what else you have there.
Thanks! In your opening dialogue you asked if we thought you would find any proof of the FW 109 crash site . I answered yes. And of course you and EE did.😊 You must get such a feeling of joy bringing it up from where it layed since the crash. Congratulations my friends.
I can see why the rescue mission would be extremely difficult. Imagine the fear the pilot felt. Of course, you found airplane ✈️ parts. You usually do. You brave all sorts of weather conditions. The birds did sound like baboons 😂. I bet there is much more to discover there. You are so good with your son. He is safe with you. Thanks for taking us HH & EE. ❤❤
I would have to agree with the person who said this must be close to where the wings and body ended up. The 7.92 pieces still having portions of the belt on them is amazing along with teh tracer 20mm rounds that was a jackpot. Have to wonder why they didn't recover all the ammo too, though I suppose at that time, while they were hurting for brass, they were not yet thinking the end was near. Congratulations for adding a 190 to your list of found planes. Great hunt and looking forward to the part 2 from this site. Stay healthy dear friend.
Agree JuleyC , this was a fantastic explore and the research did pay off and i loved that. Tons of rain but well worth the time. Thanks so much and more to come :)
I'm surprised those first bullet rounds were so close to the surface after so many years lying out there. I figured after this many years they would be at least 1ft underground
Thank You for all the great videos, guys. I feel guilty not being able to help you out at the moment, but soon I will. Be safe, and once again Thank You
The research you both due seems to always pay off. Did the pilot survive? Who witnessed the crash to be able to tell what happened? It’s just amazing that after around eighty years, you are able to go out and find these pieces of history. Your mother’s philosophy of never surrender, never give up pays off again. I love seeing these pieces of history being discovered.
Another great exploration you guys really found a lot of history thanks for sharing it with us as I told you the other day I'll continue to fallow you guys no matter what you decide to do with this Chanel I look forward to seeing what you guys do and as soon as I find a job I plan to become a patron team member become I really enjoy your content and I really want to support you and your history hunting family
I love and have loved watching you and your son and daughter since your earliest works. Some might say that what y'all do might seem trivial and maybe glorifying the Germans of the WW 2 time period. These are the people who have been programmed to find offense in any and everything. What they don't take into consideration is that y'all take the political aspect out of it and focus on, 1. The historical significance of these things. 2. The human aspect of those who literally LIVED it. After all, when the all uniforms, ranks and weapons are taken out of the picture - the only thing that is left is - HUMANS , all of the same rank and basic needs and desires that want nothing less than Love, Peace and Harmony. I think that what you and your family and all the contributors to your channel are doing is a very wonderful thing for humanity. You are documenting history and remembering with respect, all off the wonderful people who lived and died this part of history before the memories and all evidence fades to the ravages of time and the minds and memories of first hand experience. Your building and recording an untold and unrecognized tale of history rarely told much less documented. I commend you my brother for such a selfless act. May all blessings of Health, Wealth and Wisdom come to all aspects of your life! May Love , Peace and Harmony come to this whole earth for we are all one. Tim.
Glad you found traces of that FW 190. Pulling on that 20mm ammo made me nervous because I don't know if that ammo was just solid metal projectiles, high explosive or incindiary that could still be live and could take a hand off if it decided to burn or explode .
Well we dont tend to think to much about items or such rather say that the best thing we have found is time to do this and time to share this :) Thanks for watching.
Wow , how kind of you my friend and we greatly appreciate that. We are already saving up for the next tour and we thank you for your kindness. More to come soon and take care :)

Loved finding the 20mms in a tree. Mother Nature was keeping them just for a determined hunter: you and EE! Great hunting!
Yes how very strange. What a great explore this was. Thanks Stephanie :)
I knew you'd find proof, HH and EE! And you did! Those 20 mm rounds were awesome to find in the old tree. A very interesting explore!❤
this was a big surprise to be honest. Who would have guessed that they could be under there :) Great explore and thanks for you FANTASTIC support :)
Very nice finds HH and EE. Sounds like EE is growing up. His voice has gotten deeper. Time flies HH. Glad to see you are able to spend lots of time with your son. Looking forward to more adventures. 👍
Yes his voice is breaking , actually several times the last months.We had a blast and thanks so much my friend for being here :)
what you found is probably parts of the wings, because the 20mm cannons were located in the wings. maybe they got cut off while the plane went through the trees.. parts of the hull (and maybe the pilot) could be not far away then..

You sir are correct

@@brianball2002 well seeing as some of the 20mm shells were actually found inside a dead old tree.. you know where i'm going lol
Amazing work to find parts from an FW190 today. Love watching your adventures. Looking forward to seeing more. ✌️😎❤️👍
Was a great explore and so glad we did find it. Thanks Robert :)

That tree root was a veritable ammo piñata! EE saying "I think Hans lost his ammo" indeed!
There you go and so glad we found those there and we loved it. Thanks.
Great set of finds. Amazing how the cartridges had become imbedded within the tree route. I wonder what else is lying out there waiting to be found?
I agree , how strange but well worth the research and time spent out there. There is more for sure out there.. Thanks my friend :)
A great find. Respect for research.
Appreciated my friend :)
Hi HH & EE,
A location where you get the best search results with a metal detector.
Again great results.
Thanks 👍
Great finds metal detecting live ammunition 792's and 20mm stunning.
Great explore and thanks for watching.
Its a shame youtube is messing with your channel. I wish i could donate. I love your content.
Thanks for that my friend :)
Once again your meticulous research bears fruit or in this case 20mm rounds! That tree gave you a rich harvest of ammo,well done EE and HH.😀👍
Yes it did and this was a special and great explore we think :)
es ist ein erlebnis und danke furs mitnehmen bis zu nachsten mal und die grusse.
We thank you Mario for your grat support :)
The live rounds are smaller and dense, might be the furthest thrown from the wreck site.
Could very well be. Thanks for watching.
Amazing!
Thanks!
Very cool finds
Thanks you for that.
The effort in the videos shows and it’s amazing! What is the craziest thing you have found in your visits?
Well we dont tend to think to much about items or such rather say that the best thing we have found is time to do this and time to share this :) Thanks for watching.
Hi hh and ee i would just dug down a few feet when you found the first 20mm the rest of plane may be deeper in the ground
Thank you for your hard work. Here’s some gas in the tank…cheers!
Wow , how kind of you my friend and we greatly appreciate that. We are already saving up for the next tour and we thank you for your kindness. More to come soon and take care :)
Were do u get ur research info from I love what u and ur son do ,and I'm curious about ur source for research
To be honest , research can be found almost anywhere. In book stores , on net , by talking to people , almost endless sources. Thanks for watching.
Brass could be tracers?
it could be yes. Thanks for watching.
EE needs his own metal detector. Christmas or birthday?
Well i have been thinking of that but we have to save up some funds now as the Great WWII Challenge Tour scraped us empty :) Thanks for watching.
