  • What a remarkable man!

  • loved the movie, it's like your there with him

  • What a great film,What a hero..DEA

  • whys the screen all weird sized

  • Great film, what a hero Dieter was. Herzog is a brilliant documentarian.

  • I actually am best friends with a relative of this man.

  • why would you type that on youtube?

  • This guy was truely amazing. I wish that I had known him. His story is remarkable and I was honored to know him this way. He reminds me of a friend of mine, Jack Sprat...thats his real name...who was a WWII gunner, bottom turret, on a bomber. The stories he tells are equally amazing. Both of these men have and had strong character and wills of iron. I admire the courage they both have and had. Rest in peace Dieter.

  • This was worth the time to watch. His story of his life is unbelievable and raw.

  • LOL how did this guy get all that stuff under the floor with all the pipes and wire

  • damn gooks.

    how could they treat dieter in such a way.

  • OMG RACIST I"M TELLING.

  • my parents are from there :D

  • because they viewed him like you view them. Hatefully. The only difference between you and them is real estate

  • i was joking dork.

    my parents are chinese who grew up in vietnam.

  • you chose to watch this movie. no one told you to. some people are just too stupid to understand documentaries. not everyone knows that its there to teach you something. nor do they want to learn from it. youre one of those dumbasses. when you say nobody else who are you talking about? speak for yourself. considering the thumbs down you are on your own there buddy. no one is with you.

  • amen.

  • Cool...(:

  • Huh, Herzog used the same passage from Revelation in "Lessons of Darkness." Perhaps it's a personal favorite?

  • Ephesians 2:8

    For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

    For further study - Ephesians 2:1-10

    What a truth - the message of our key verse in our reading today, verse 8. It is the grace of our wonderful Lord and Savior Jesus Christ - it is the grace by which we are saved. There was no work that I could do to be made pure, only the blood of Jesus Christ could cleanse me, and you, and make us whole.

    Thank you Jesus.

  • Damn Youtube putting movies on... I want user-created content dammit!!!

  • amen

  • This man's stories are the stuff of legends. He is a living Aeneas

  • because he is your father

  • He had to suffer that miserable experience after being shot down while flying in service to his country. He chose to join the military and be useful. Unlike some people, who just sit around posting comments on YouTube.

  • Gee, I guess that would not include you, would it?

    It was a serious question.

  • people like, asshole.

  • people like YOU, asshole.

  • Dieter Dangler was one of the biggest badasses to ever walk the earth

  • As long as I live I will never ever forget what I have just seen.

  • this is one of the best documenturies you will find.

  • Rest in Peace Dieter.

  • This is one of the most amazing movies I've ever seen

  • he wasnt drafted and he didn't do it out of a sense of patriotism. he volunteered to bomb towns and kill civilians just because he wanted to fly. After living through the horrors of war and seeing the destruction caused by warplanes he decided to do the same to others. How would Americans treat a downed enemy pilot who had just tried to bomb their town. he deserves his nightmares.

  • "deserve" is not the right word. both sides do their duty. civilians are their just to complete the ugly story.

  • mnb, what a meaningless comment. Jackthemeat is 100% correct. How many people did this guy murder? Perhaps mnb murder bothers you less if it is not you or yours but rather some other people different you on the other side of the world.

  • Jackthemeat, what is amazing is how extensively after the war Vietnamese expressed genuine forgiveness of their American murderers.

  • hes one of a kind...

  • i've wanted to watch this for ages, and i'm thrilled to see it available on youtube.

  • the advertisements are way too freaking loud compared to the audio level of the movie.

  • it was great but, it didn't get my attention that much not saying what he did was bad or anything... my uncle serverd in Vietnam and was captured...But didn't live to tell about it...

  • very brave man

  • this is the guy rescue dawn is based on right

  • Interesting guy

  • thank you for sharing your story Dieter, my Dad's full blooded German who served to Vietnam in the airforce. He too flew long after retirement. Your story touches my heart.

  • this documentary is okay but that friggin wierd ass music has got to go! at about 20:13 i needed an aspirin!

  • this man struggled to survive since birth.

    did you watch w/volume off. he ate

    WALLPAPER because they were starving.

    he survived capture and lived to tell

    his story. and you comment like some

    spoiled little asshole!!! get a life

    trekkie wannabe

  • There are Lots of 'Crappy New Films' too!

    Many people appreciate Documentaries like this not only for their historical content

    - but also because it helps some of us realise just how lucky we are to be living in a Country that isn't being attacked and bombed every day. Sometimes it can take

    a 'Crappy Old Movie' like this to make one

    realise just how Lucky we are ! If you spend a year living in a 3rd World Country-

    you'd know what I mean.

  • Werner Herzog is a film maker of genius. Explore his early works: The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser, Stroszek, Heart of Glass, Fata Morgana, Lessons of Darkness and Even Dwarfs started Small. Stroszek, in particular reveals the unrelenting poverty of Railroad Flats in Wisconsin in the fifties.

  • How can you leave out Aguirre: Wrath of God?

  • is this the beginning of the end of youtube?

  • It's a very good film.

  • What's so boring about it? If you don't enjoy the film, don't bother commenting.

    Of course, I'm not trying to muffle your opinion, Klingong, but judging by the standard of the videos you watch (and have created) you lack the intellect required to enjoy such historical work.

    I'm sorry, but that's just my opinion.

  • Klingong, it would be foolish of me to criticize you any further, since I may instigate an internet "flame war". However, I feel that your opinion cannot possibly be complete and acceptable if you did not watch the piece of work fully.

    I shall admit, the film is slow to start, but it does become interesting after a short while.

    I urge you to watch the film once again and to gather a proper opinion. I am sure you shan't regret it.

  • And judging by your plethora of video's i hardly believe you can talk about mine.

  • Klingong, your sarcastic remarks are clearly ineffective.

    My opinion is just as valuable as that of any other YouTube user. Except, unlike you, I back up my arguments clearly.

    What reasoning have you provided for your hatred of this piece, which I might add, is a true story?

    I will appreciate and accept your opinions if you can provide sufficient reasoning and justification for your arguments.

    Thank you.

  • I saw Rescue Dawn before seeing this documentary and wondered why Christian Bale didn't have a German accent. I thought that perhaps Dieter didn't have one. Now we know he did.

  • the commercials are SOOOOO LLLOOOUUUUUUDDD

  • i agree. i can understand the commercials but they are SO LOUD it's startling!

  • i have no comercials in it..

  • R.I.P Dieter

  • I dont know why they put commercials in the movie. It only makes me HATE them.

  • can they get HD goin couse it like watching color when it first came out ...no pixels here i d rather rent for good quality

  • 8 ads ...wow watta whores

  • I love this film, Werner Herzog is a genius.

  • whats with the ads??

  • Would you rather pay?

  • I don't need to watch movies on youtube, when I can download them for free on Demonoid

  • And get caught?

  • What are you talking about? It says under canadian law that it's legal as long as it's for personal use

  • Your so smart.. except the fact this isnt on Demonoid.

  • Don't watch it if you don't like it.

  • david its his opinion and all you teabags just leave him alone

  • interesting insight
