Digging up old mines while wandering a minefield, burning an old flamethrower in a fire pit, and climbing a rotted 80 year old ladder are three of the most obvious “don’t do this” things I’ve ever heard of, yet, here we are. Thank you for doing it, so I don’t have to.
i would do it
Crazy how well all the galvanized barbed wire in comparison to non galvanized metals held up
Please do not go into the cave. It is dangerous for many reasons. Your safety is more important than anything else. Thank you for sharing your experiences and world with us.
Incredible find and high dangerous place! well done, from Italy.
No one has been there before.... Immediately finds Bouncing Betties sitting on a rock and says "Here's some mines that someone has already dug up". 🤔
that's the second surviving 80 year old flimsy ladder I have seen tonight. amazing.
German steel and products made then was the best in the world. They was really the best u can get. Now it's China, not the best but no matter what u buy flip it over and says Made in China. If China said FU USA wed be so very fucked so very bad. Over 75 percent of all we use comes from china. Scary and sad. I was born in 80 and I remember helping dad work on things around the house and buying wear items and fixing it, not throwing it out and buying new. Miss those days. Shit lasted then. I have a blender, mixer and a microwave, all ugly colors, very heavy but works almost 40 years. Made in USA
It looks as if it was a German position that was overran or left in a retreat before they could deploy the rest of the mines…Very very cool.
Cool video. It must be an awesome feeling finding those places just as they left them. What do you call that off road vehicle? That looks like a lot of fun to drive.
Can you give us coordinates where that is located? Maybe we can find out which unit was there
great finds and love from the US
How should we start our campfire?
US: Matches + Lighter Fluid
Russia: Matches + WW2 German Flame Thrower
Great work. Where abouts are these woods exactly?
You’re doing good work getting the mines out of the ground and taking the flamethrowers. People who don’t know what they’re doing could get hurt.
Now what I’m interesting in is that Russian ATV That thing is amazing
Good old German Engineering. Good finds! Good luck and all best from Germany
Wow, just wow 🤩
Incredible work......and.....I love that 4 wheel tractor......Peace!
Woooow..qué buen hallazgo después de 80 años, genial vídeo ok.
No you can definitely see how that wire would Significantly slow down incoming infantry
Sons of men and women dammed in war, I can imagine the pain the victims experienced.
Use the mesh for a German hemet
Fantastic find guys. Do you think any of those land mines are still explosive , have you try to detonate any of them ? Thank you again. Job well done. Looking forward to new videos.
Marcio, l was about to say the same thing 😜😜!!
All of that is worth money on ebay. Take it home. Just don't label the package as a landmine I guess lol
I am guessing you are in Russia. How about a video of the all terrain vehicle you are using, I have not seen it before.
I'll bet them soldiers stunk to hell and back. I've been Told that German soldiers could be smelled from 4 to 5 hundred feet away downwind especially while airing out their boots. Many allied soldiers have said they could smell a Fritz or Krauts from hundreds of feet away all of them had this extremely pungent sweaty leather smell, combined with pungent foot and boy odor and tobacco smells, they said it was a very distinct smell.
Исторические реликвии не должны ржаветь в лесу, отнесите их в музей
Imagino a quantidade de coisas que tem nessa região ☹️👍🇧🇷
Interesting ... I just wish there was a translation to English so I could understand what these guys are saying ...
I presume they're in Russia. I'd be curious to know whereabouts, or at least what timeframe of the war the Germans occupied these positions.
😱
S-mines
Jurassic Park
Can’t believe that ladder is 80+ years old, more likely a recent ‘hunter’s ladder’!
next fast 😼
It's incredible that a german jumping mine that have sat in the ground for atleast 77 years got less rust than my Chinese motorcycle from 2016 :D
keyword here is chinese. its junk
Bouncing Betty’s
It’s quite mind boggling the amount of resources put into being able to kill people. Imagine all that used for good instead!
Awsome! What a place thanks for keeping the past alive!! I bet there is more places like this out there. Thank you for sharing and be careful✋👍 from new york
We are going to be finding WWI and WWII relics while WWIII is being fought.
I know you are all very careful and the mines are old, but "Bouncing Betties", S-mines, are scary dangerous. Be safe.
The “bouncing Betty’s” used black powder as a propellant - any water ingress and they become inert other than the fuse. That was because the Germans ran out of the materials to make more advanced explosives at the end of WW2.
@@allangibson2408
Do you want to try reading the manufacturers date or bet on all the contents being wetted😬😉
The battle fields of the First ww are still littered with devices that can and do go off....and as one writer has also stated even US civil war mines have exploded 😬
@@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665 The Betty’s were not particularly water proof (even when new) as a function of their design.
Modern chemical explosives are generally far more water resistant.
A WW2 Teller mine would be seriously scary (particularly as they included anti disturbance fuse provisions as standard).
@@allangibson2408 and yet the Russian War Diggers aka Yuri Gagarin people eat them for breakfast.
Amazing at the condition of every thing that's found , scary though as some of those mines looked like they could have gone bang !!!
Those mine could have gone off. He is very lucky. The Germans galvanized everything.
There have been instances of American Civil War mortars blowing up and injuring, &killing people in recent history. So yes,these mines could have some potential, if conditions are met.
@@necosimpson6225
Legacy mines and munitions are one of the greatest threats to life and limb over huge areas of the world, not just on land either .... these tend to stay put mostly sea mines are complete wild cards when they break loose.
There is a ww2 munitions ship sunk just outside London...in the industrial zone .... Its so dangerous they have never attempted to remove the cargo or nutralize it.
Yeah, I was thinking when I was watching, is that land mines? Is he digging them up by hand... And yes he is, WTF.
Some of those mines had already been disassembled and emptied. Seems someone wanted the stuff that goes bang lol.
Danke für's zeigen und hochladen ! Super Informationen zu diesen stationären Flammenwerfern - live leer gebrannt habe ich sie nie gesehen !
👍🏻
Looks like the Germans definitely built their equipment to last!
german engineering were on of the factors that allies had trouble with, though they still tend to overengineer stuff
You should not be so casual with those mines. They can be very unstable and it only takes one to ruin your day in a big way.
i am always blown away with how casual they handle ww2 ordinance...you're right with the whole, one unstable one handled wrong and you're done for.
I would be paranoid as hell picking one of those up I've heard too many horror stories but they act like they don't care lol
@@solidrockofjesuschristmini2423 Meanwhile in Russia lol
I'm watching this just shaking my head. They have NO IDEA the danger they're in right now. It's a PERAMETER WIRE...AND A MINE FIELD BEYOND IT...🙄🤯💀
Luckily a lot of those mines doesn't have the detonator so the explosives are open to the elements. The explosives (mainly TNT) can 'sweat' when it's old and then it's very unstable. But we got natures finest bomb disposal unit available, ants. Ants like the sweet taste of most explosives, so they litteraly eat the explosives and make a bomb 'safe'. Although the mine at 11:15 i wouldn't touch with a 5m long stick behind a concrete wall. It got an intact fuse, no holes for ants and looks like it got some weight when he lifts it, meaning there's most likely still explosives inside.
That's really amazing to see & one can only imagine the overwhelming fear any soldier wud have upon realizing they were walking in a minefield!😨🇺🇸
That was very dangerous, if that mixture exploded you would have had a bad day.
This is scary as hell. Digging up old WWII mines like its just a nature walk. Oh in a mine field no problem, well camp here.
hahaha you fellas make me laugh..."German jumping mines....very dangerous.....we need to be careful...." Chuck. Bang. Prod. "We're in a minefield..." Stomp.....
What strange woods you have there... So little decay in so many years...
Awesome video 😉👍 keep making awesome WW2 history videos 🔥💯🔥
I have found such a field in the Netherlands, 70 pieces of that mines.
Love the ATV's They appear to be a relatively inexpensive model. What is the brand name a model please:)-John in Texas
if you ever find out, let me know. Maybe those are just Lada's with big wheels? lol
Amazing to see an 80 year old german flamethrower still breathing fire ! Thank you for doing all this excavation. Those Sprengminen are still dangerous though, please be careful.
Fuck That...yes they are old..yes they are rusty. yes 99.999% they are inert. but it only takes one to fuck your day up. having said that, this man has balls of steel and bouncing betties would probably just bounce of him
Please tell me what those machines are that you drive? Look like a open log skidder or off road truck that articulates in the middle and from side to side. Ultimate 4wd. They look bought or maybe just made well at home either way what's the name of them? Thank you from Pennsylvania. USA
those are simple version of the sherps which are seling in the US as well
love war history I wish I had enough to join and become a member
Спасибо за сохранение исторических артефактов. Я надеюсь, что когда-нибудь не будут те кости, которые когда-нибудь выкопают наши дети.
Do you worry about the stuff blowing up? Do you get to keep the stuff you find or what happens to it? My dad was in WWll so I find this fascinating.
Please do away with the computer voice at the beginning!!
Awesome ... is this Karelia perhaps ... finland front?
Amazing - and Beautiful. Perhaps some of the incomplete mines missing trigger mechanisms found unburied were not dug up by someone else. Perhaps those are surplus the Germans had planned to put in the minefield but did not.
Those fitted with the 3 pronged dets were risky and so easy to set off back when first put in place, never mind now, still live !!
thanks for the video and respect for your dangerous work.
спасибо за видео и респект за ваш опасный труд.
Фугасный огнемет Abwehr Flammenwerfer 42
Одноразовый, оборонительный огнемет Abwehr Flammenwerfer 42 (A.Fm.W. 42) был разработан на базе советского фугасного огнемета ФОГ-1. Для применения, он зарывался в землю, на поверхности оставалась замаскированная труба форсунки. Устройство срабатывало либо от дистанционного управления, либо от контакта с растяжкой. Всего было выпущено 50 тысяч единиц. ТТХ огнемета: объем огнесмеси - 29 л; зона поражения - полоса длиной 30 м, шириной 15 м; максимальная продолжительность работы - 3 с.
Thank you for allowing us to tag along on your dig. Great to see history in and on the ground! Russia did most of the fighting against the Germans. Great to see the evidence of your sacrifices. Well done
more like did most of the dying.
russian command didn't care how many of their troops died unfortunately.
Exactly Darren. You just need to look at a map, see how huge Russia - back then - and Europe. Russian front absorbed well over half the german army, and war effort. Not down playing allied war effort,
but, yes, Darren, if it wasn't for the Russians...the war would have dragged on. Just so terrible that Stalin, near doubled the entire casualties of ww2 - on his own people.
@@sking3492 And the Russian winter help.
Great video, thank you for sharing, great history lesson
for sure i will never touch landmine like that ;)
Very interesting places you come across huge fan from new Zealand
Great video my frind, greatings from Brazil
You guys find some cool stuff ! TOTALLY AWSOME
🤣🤣🤣🤣 only a russian would be crazy enough to go wandering around a mine field 🤣🤣🤣 dont die man
Amazing video. Thanks for posting!
Your so sure that mine won't explode jerking it out of the ground like that 😂😂😂
in my head id imagined an scp situation where with every burst of light from that frying flamethrower, you see more and more outlines of ghostly soldiers both german and russian, standing between the trees in the darkness, getting slightly closer and growning in numbers with each new puff of light.
Seems like a waste to make galvanized barbed wire and road drums, since the barricade was not meant to last for long. Probably peacetime production line. The picture of two German soldiers sitting down around their camp stove gives a terrible feeling of reality. Two descent lads having a nice day in the woods, making lunch. Thrown in a war they did not ask for. Flamethrower in action was quite a blast from the past. But I think it should be in a museum as it was. A historic, place important to preserve as it sits, but mines has to go. We can not have mine fields in a public place. Maybe also the barbed wire. Wildlife and maybe dogs really do not need those traps.
Please tell me the name and fabricator of this coolest vehicle on water & earth... !?!
What are the vehicle s called you drive,
Hmm..Love it. Descendant of Soviets, digging up Nazi mines...Wearing German Camo....
This kind of stuff is really crazy!!!. Even if the main charge is not viable!, If the fuse is, it will kill!!!.
All the safety sallies worried about mines that have spent the last 80 years alternating between soaking and freezing….. LOL
Until you find one, where the fuse isn't rusted in place....
Perhaps melt the TNT out of it and have some fun?
BLOODY GOOD GERMAN ENGINEERING THAT ITS LASTED SO LONG TILL NOW THANKS 😊.
How did the Soviets not find this mine field back in their day? Was this battlefield forgotten since the end of World War Two?
het is ongelofelijk wat er nog gevonden word na bijna 80 jaar ,wel gevaarlijk , mensen doe voorzichtig , ga zo door🤘
Very cool find
Burning the flamethrower was pretty cool whis I could have seen it in person drunk that would be awesome tho
I want one of those Russian off road vehicles so bad!! It's like a argo on steroids!
I don't think I would be touching them....Not a good Idea...BOOOM
i love your videos! =) very strange that no one has been there for such long time!
and i wonder what is this beautiful offroaders you guys drive! =) i would love to build this myself!
This is gonna be great!
Absolutely amazing. To think of the things these objects have seen.
Those S-mines are full of jagged little chunks of metal. I can't believe he's just picking them up after they had the TRIGGER installed, that works on TRIP WIRES.
Believe me, was thinking the exact same thing. But these are Russians, and they don't like to be "Beeches" about things like this lol
That flamethrower still spitting fire is incredible!
Love the all terrain vehicles
Did the flamethrowers make it to be preserved and displayed?
How come those ball blastin Smines are so safe to handle - Now ? The 3 pronged items were so delicate when first buried, really lethal... I'm surprised you find them apparently inert today....
Primer / powder degraded with moisture
Life expectancy buried in the ground to preform as manufactured is 3 months, these mine were tested by the Allies in North Africa, as mentioned by PVD all primer/ powder black powder based is prone to moisture. The only dangerous content is the three dets under the three screws at the top, which should just drop out when unscrewed.
I'm surprised the flamethrower didn't explode.
Are they not still active 🤔
Very dangerous to dig.
Tolles Video.
Ay man why don't you let the soldiers rest in peace? My guy your disturbing their finally resting place to steal what's left of their kit. Your know worse then a grave robber
No*
Awesome
Sad to see the flamethrowing getting burnt after so many years of beeing preserved. You should have just shoot some flames with the pump for fun and send it to a museam after. Also it was dangerous because it could have exploded.
