A documentary I made in my film design class about the effects of gas in world war one, sorry for the pathetic commentary but I was rushing it because it was my second time doing it, the guy recording me forgot to turn the Mic. on the camera on..

Not bad for a rushed job (don't need to Hollywood it). Corrections: The first country to use gas in WWI were the FRENCH (tear gas=legal) in 1914. Virtually no effect BUT noticed by the Germans. The Germans countered with Clorine gas from canisters (again legal. The Hague 1899-1907 Protocols banned poisonous shells only). The British were the first to use gas shells---so technically GB broke the Hague Conventions on Poisonous Gas!!! Its the Slippery Slope Argument of lawful becoming lawless!!!

@Armydicked Very well constructed thank you

wow nice job being retarded. The Canadians held the line at Ypres at did the urine defence. The French screamed and ran away in terror while we held the line

[5NailsToTheNeck]

@CANADIANPEANUT1 haha sorry it just made more sense that the french would be the ones to piss themselves and put the cloth to their face to save them, but if you say the Canadians did more power to you :)

My Great Great grandfather fought for the Austrian hungarian army and was an Officer and very Heroic he also fought in Verdun and he won a lot of bravery medals and other medals but he fought against canadians he has won against them

Shitty soundtrack...

[underfire987]

all i am saying is that was not accurate the first gas attack canadains and other british forigen forces were on the line the rest fled, but the canadains held their ground and quickly came up with the "peing" on rags and covering their face with them idea. then we held off the german attack, it was one of our first astounding victorys as a country. not trying too be a blind patirotic person just saying this is what i had learned?

Actually the Germans used chlorine gas on the Eastrn front first. On a small scale against the Russians in Poland only a few weeks before it was used for the first time on a large scale at Ypres.

[FlitkoSLO]

@Armydicked Actually, Germans used tear gas before they used chlorine. As for the Brits, I'd like to ask you where did they first use gas shells? I've never found the information about this and you seem to know a lot about it. Thanks in advance.

It was an Australian that shot down the red baron sir, but yes America is number one. If not for it we wouldn't even be having this conversation.

kens burns dont have jacked up audio. You're doing major work though, fix the audio so people can enjoy your work.

@johnkclawson French had there time at Verdun for sure but we were being gassed at the same time and we never retreated, just saying. Also i'm going into the Canadian Military, Armoured so im sure crazy shit like this will happen to me at some point.
