wolfkills920 "That is NOT an Oshkosh!!!"... mate when read the badge on the front after I watched it fall off the trailer, it definitely said OSHKOSH! Were you there? No, didn't think so...
My brother Markus Bott had been tortured during 5.5 years by the German BND,the former GESTAPO. I recorded more than 100 videotapes which ended up in the legal system. My brother was tortured during 1.5 years despite several legal procedures pending. He was assassinated on July 11th 2009 because of our homepage, linked on my channel, and our book Der Totalitäre Staat. If my homepage disappears,the BND will have assassinated me as well
Thumbs up if you want the BND to stop torturing my parents
HAAHAA Oh shit if the truck is ruined we are all fucked!! Oh and yea check if Mike is alright too. Lets casually and nonchalantly walk over and see if he is all good.. I mean seriously -- they didn't give a fuck.. haha
The moron standing at the front of the trailer is lucky to be alive! He could EASILY have been launched 30-50 feet into the air and over the rear of the trailer if it had flipped up in the nose when the weight shifted. You gotta be a soldier to be THAT DUMB!
@bulruq And YOU mate are talking a load of bullshit!. You know NOTHING about heavy or wide loads. He was perfectly safe, even a catastrophic loss or weight displacement would have done nothing to the trailer except rock it a little. He may have lost his balance thats all. Youve got to be a DUMB CIVVY PRICK to make your post.
The problem was that the operator was pussyfooting it too much, if he went faster and kept the inertia going backwards he would have made it to the ground faster than the truck woulda been able to flip.
Tip for amateur video photographers: when recording, PAY THE FUCK ATTENTION TO WHAT IT'S POINTING AT!! A shaky camera may be unavoidable under the circumstance(s), but missing the action is bloody inexcusable.
@rrrohan2288 no... we brits might just have a drink of coke watch the next episode of topgear and if he doesnt come in the house in the next few days then you call your mummy :D
You didnt colonize anything. You obviously don't live here so therefore you nor any of your ancestors are colonists. Obama's a joke, I'll give you that. I've never liked him and I agree that it's dumb to not release the pictures. I suppose it's our fault the truck fell off the trailer cuz it was built in America huh? Must be. Since you can't even build your own damn trucks. Or win your own wars. If it weren't for us you'd all still be riding horses into battle.
Oh, so not bringing WWI into it? Because you didn't do shit in that one.
You joined WWII in the last 4 years because you got bombed by the Japanese. Your battle was in the Pacific, whereas we fought mainly in Europe, you weren't in Europe.
At the end of the day, the Russians helped us more than you did, not as if we needed it, we were already winning, they just sped up the process.
You idiot, Normandy was a WWII campaign, planned by you.
America hit the most resistance on the beaches of Normandy.
Now, a British planned assault, "The Battle of the Somme"
The forces involved had suffered more than 1.5 million casualties, making it one of the bloodiest military operations ever recorded. The first day of the battle saw the British Army suffer the worst one-day combat losses in its history, with nearly 60,000 casualties.
You need to sort out your sarcasm then, because that sounded like you were being serious to me. (You probably were, you're just too American to admit it).
What is your point now then? Because you're replying, but not making any attempt to reply properly. Are you giving up?
Also, I was wrong, the British had the toughest jobs on the D-Day invasion, not only did they have to attack the landing beaches "Gold" and "Sword." But they also had to fight their way into Caen to take the "Pegasus Bridge" to stop German reinforcements pushing back in from the East.
Americans landed on the beaches "Omaha" and "Utah." Which were the 2 most western beaches. Furthest away from the second round of attacks from the East.
@DipDop99 yes the us was in europe must be why my great uncle died there lol. 2 you werent winning shit. you had already been pushed back to the uk at antwerp. all counties involved lost massive quantities of life, men from many countries fought and died on both sides. but to make claims like that is retarded, read up on some history of just how much shit the US gave, sold and manufactured for the UK. i dont claim the US did every thing bt we deffinantly were not twiddling our thumbs
Actually, it is the fact Americans claim that they won the war for us that pisses me off. The Soviet Union lost 20,000,000 people in total alone. The most of any nation. (More than America). America only lost 400,000. Hence my comment about Russia helping more than you.
You fought mainly in the Pacific. And you didn't do too well, remember Okinawa? It was the A-Bomb that saved you.
@DipDop99 yes russia lost more bc they were invaded among other factors. of course there will be higher loses. but to compare two countries losses as a way to say one did more than the other is immature at best. each of those is a life no matter US, UK, german ect. if you do want to go that route the uk "only" lost about 318,000. less than the us so by your thinking. we did more than you. okinawa, it was a F'ing island fortress of course it will result in high casulties. brave men all of them
@blork5 yes if you factor in territory that russia lost than regained that statement would be correct dont know the actual stats but you can look at a map and pretty much figure that one out. how ever, if you use the original russian border negating the fact german penetrated russia, once russia pushed them to the original border and then pushed out wards from there. the total area is about the same from the original border depends on how ya look at it i guess "half full, half empty" kinda deal
@nm9730 the allies lost western europe and regained it from the nazi's so by this definition russia lost territory to the nazi's regained it and went further.
So if you take the same definition russia conquered more terrain than the allies.
@nm9730 and btw it's a well know fact that Stalin got pissed off at the slow pace of the allies. He felt like the allies let him do all the dirty work. He already conquered Berlin while the agreement with the allies was to meet forces in Berlin.
@blork5 what was it like 7 or 8 days before the rest of the allies got to berlin? russia took berlin, why would you bitch? it would make russia look better. "By prior agreement, the Allied armies (positioned approximately 60 miles to the west) halted their advance in order to give the soviets a free hand."
@DipDop99 Marshal Georgy Zhukov lead his Army into Germany,and Russia also defeated 70% of the Nazis on their own,and Britain & Canada were in the War long before you,America only got into it after they nuked Japan.
That's not entirely right. America bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki because they were loosing. They attempted to land at Okinawa, but failed because the island was a fortress. When it became clear to them that the Japanese were fucking them over. They invented the Atom bomb.
@DipDop99 I'm wrong,it's less than 70%,but yeah,Americans talk so much trash,and they cannot even win a war properly,Japan would've kicked their asses! Oh,and the Atom bomb came from a German scientist.
Haha, this is why I love Canadians, your all so laid back, but mention America and you go crazy. Which I like because no one apart from America likes America.
"WE AREN'T FAT, WE'RE JUST BIG BONED. I'M NOT STUPID, I'M JUST NOT VERY CLEVER. IT'S OK THOUGH, BECAUSE I'M NOW IN THE US MILITARY - AFTER ALL, I DON'T HAVE THE QUALIFICATIONS TO GET A JOB IN MCDONALDS."
for all the people saying this isnt british, it is.
it is a british design (built in america to british specification) and shipped over here. we bought the right to use these trucks, just like we bought the right to make apache's.

@nm9730 the allies lost western europe and regained it from the nazi's so by this definition russia lost territory to the nazi's regained it and went further.
So if you take the same definition russia conquered more terrain than the allies.

@nm9730 and btw it's a well know fact that Stalin got pissed off at the slow pace of the allies. He felt like the allies let him do all the dirty work. He already conquered Berlin while the agreement with the allies was to meet forces in Berlin.

@blork5 what was it like 7 or 8 days before the rest of the allies got to berlin? russia took berlin, why would you bitch? it would make russia look better. "By prior agreement, the Allied armies (positioned approximately 60 miles to the west) halted their advance in order to give the soviets a free hand."

@DipDop99 Marshal Georgy Zhukov lead his Army into Germany,and Russia also defeated 70% of the Nazis on their own,and Britain & Canada were in the War long before you,America only got into it after they nuked Japan.

That's not entirely right. America bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki because they were loosing. They attempted to land at Okinawa, but failed because the island was a fortress. When it became clear to them that the Japanese were fucking them over. They invented the Atom bomb.
70% of Nazis? I don't think so.
By the way, I'm English.

@DipDop99 I'm wrong,it's less than 70%,but yeah,Americans talk so much trash,and they cannot even win a war properly,Japan would've kicked their asses! Oh,and the Atom bomb came from a German scientist.

@DipDop99 losing is spelt with 1 O. Sorry to be picky but it just annoys me when people type "loose" instead of "lose".
