@Tadej96SLO 1st: He didn't have his mask with him because he's a silly (and now dead) goose. And yeah they were gassing a lot but the masks were uncomfortable and obscured vision terribly, so they didn't wear them all the time.
2nd: Just covering your face with clothes probably wouldnt work with military grade gas
in WWI if you survive the enemy shots, maybe the gas will get you, or the flamethrower, or the mines, or the artillery blast, or the trench raider with bayonet, or the machine gunner.
why dont the soldiers shoot the flame thrower? i understand that it's scary as shit but i think one shot would blow the guy up and set his buddies aflame and they would cause a chain reaction.
@Percilitor i will bet you are wrong! i still have my grandfathers gas mask from the war, and in part you are right! the mask in the film is very close to what thay had. thay also had a tube that was connected to a cannister on the belt, the mask was made of very tuff rubber and cloth, almost like a burlap or cheese cloth, the canister was packed with nothing but little pieces of paper we now know today as Kleenex! it had straps like modern day masks have, with 6 straps 2 on top 4 on the sides
@gireagle Yes I am, I know they had gas masks, but they were less sophisticated than those that are shown here. And that' exactly what I said in my comment. I also know for a fact that there were no flamethrowers in WW 1.
@Percilitor After germany had first used improvised devices to unleash gas at the enemy, allied troops used improvised devices to protect themselves, too. But soon they developed "real" gas masks, although I believe in this movie scene they wear the german model. As a kid, a friend of mine was given one by his grampa. The german assault engineers (Pioniertruppen) used flamethrowers for sure.
@guigui1789 actually the helmets are called adrian helmets and were brought in during the 1st world war because the french soldiers had no helmets so they made them because they were cheap to make
Interesting because the only way to survive a flamethrower is to run away from it!
I wonder how much guts it took the flamethrower troops to pull the trigger on those other troops. I mean, think about it... Sure its a war but damn, that must take ALOT of guts to unleash a weapon like that on opther people!
@igotbored44 It was a horrible position, enemy soldiers would usually make the flamethrower guys a priority target. And if you were captured and had a flamethrower... well, what they'd do to you wasn't pretty.
it doesnt matter about the masks...its about the horror of chemical warefare.....good old chemical warfare is very psycological....it sucks just wearing those pro-masks for only an hour
this is some grim shit right here. did anyone else hear slayer "chemical warfare" in their head while watchin' this ? and btw, i definietly would have shot at the fucking fire moving towards me.
@360Nomad Shooting gas tanks doesn't work in real life. All it'd do is cause the fuel to leak out. It won't ignite it. So no exploding soldiers for you. That's Hollywood physics for you.
@halo07guy2 I already knew that. Shooting the gas tank would still render the flamethrower useless though. It would lose pressure and wouldn't propel gas out.
not true, the propellant used in most flame throwers was a mixed gas. so if both tanks were penetrated then the resulting uncontrolled mixture of the two gases would result in an explosion
@360Nomad nooo you moron xd a gas attack is the soldiers worst nightmare.. panic is quick to go underneath the troops. when you have ur mask on i can tell you from experience its hard to see hard to aim hard to shoot a rifle.. and in those days if youre warm your mask glasses would became foggy during the heating of the watr(sweat) and when you see germans with flametrowers shooting gastanks is a myth..doesnt work beacause the feul only will leak out and not set fire.
@MrCommunismftw It's true. The cavalry were equipped with masks for the horses because the horses would be affected by gas attacks just like humans. They look pretty funny, but a funny-looking horse is better than a dead horse.
Obviously, you have never served in combat. Despite "technology" it's still a man pulling the trigger and being in a fire fight, regardless of how high tech it is, requires the "balls" you refered to as your life can be gone from you at any moment that is if your not wounded or maimed.
Ah, nothing like litterialy drowning in you own blood, then getting shraple blow through your body, then haveing the universal rearm of 'Mine' burned into your mind, oh and don't forget that infection you have on your limbs, or thatrat bite from the rodent that mistook you for one of the many corpses in your trench. Oh, and to top it all off a guy sticks a six to eight in peice of metal through you multiple times
@Ericman2043 Chlorine gas takes out the lungs turning the fluids in the lungs into acid (HCL). Basically you drown in your own body fluids, people that surivive very seldom lead normal breathing.
@Ericman2043 Flame thrower was first used during WWI, it is possible theta the first soldiers theta encountered them didn't know how to react. I think that it could bee like that. The next group of soldiers would shoot at them.
Well, I thought like you, but now I think that they weren't professional soliders so after gas attack they were shocked and confused. French officer did mistake beacuse he didn't react when he saw flames. Maybe he wasn't experienced? I don't remember movie, only that he was new in that belgian unit.
umm, why didnt they just shoot the germans instead of letting them get within effective range?
