Let us not forget they were trained to be this evil. They were forced to be this evil. They were brainwashed to be this evil by the most evil man of them all. I do not agree nor do I have pity for the ss but I will level with them and understand that a lot of them did not want to do it and they were just taking orders. Just like me in the army I don’t want to do certain things or feel certain ways about but you are trained and brainwashed to be exactly what they want you to be. I love my job in the army but I understand it has made me become something I never thought possible
@@1stellar_Damn, you just summarized Hitlers reasoning in his book Mein Kampf in a few words. Interesting people with Hitler's ideology still exists in 2023.
No. Just no. This error irks me too, but that is NOT down to their technical advisors. I find it much more likely, that the advisors pointed it out, but were ignored, or it was deemed too insignificant, or something most audiences wouldn't notice or care about. Prime example for this kind of ocurrence, would be the tech advisor for Fast & Furious. Go watch his video about how the directors twisted his advice into some of the bullshit that actually made it into the movies.
The Luger is extracting rounds and for the second pistol, I believe it is a Walther, he might cover the extraction port with his thumb which would also induce a malfunction or he releases the slide to early and doesn’t extract the malfunctioning round
@@bibitta 100% intended to teach children. Nearly every person in public school throughout OR ID and WA watched this movie in school. As a teaching aid, before they were in 9th grade. It does a good job dramatizing the concept of Nazis.. You notice how their actions are over dramatized? Similar to star wars? This is a type of filming... Its not the like movie is old. This is 100% strategic connunication. Really important concepts... Actual events...Someones real... barbaric thoughts... are dramatized to allow US 6th graders to grasp the evilness nazis. Failed miserably... As every 24 year old American uses the word Nazi liberally.... Hahhaha what a pun... Oh man... Plenty of actual ww2 footage out there. This is in black and white why? To make it feel more historically accurate? Its pg13... Theres nothing historical about this.... It's intended to propagate emotions and ideas.... Propa...ga.. .. Never mind... It WAS apart of every 6th graders curriculum here in Washington. Not sure if it is now.
The fact that he pulls out another gun from his pocket is so darkly hilarious. Just imagine him emptying every pocket like he's the Merchant in Resident Evil 4 and none of the weapons do anything.
Bro lugers we're prone to jamming like that,it's the only thing that made them unreliable,they may have been accurate asf and could should faster but they jammed like a hoe
It’s scary how they’re so casual and overlooking the fact that they’re about to kill a man in cold blood Edit: The replies have somehow turned into a Palestine-Israel debate
They didn't believed that we are equal to humans they saw us as animals and objects but they wasn't born like that they were taught to act like that we will never forget and we will never forgive.
Evil walks among us unseen all the time. Give people the power to do what they want with impunity and the evil will show itself there are many evil people but also many good people.
Most of them.... some were monsters. Christian Wirth comes to mind. Please, go look him up. He was a monster. So were Willi Mentz and Augusted Miete. Both were mass murderers and monsters. As in thousands of people who each individually shot. Most of their victims were "worn out" workers, elderly, children who could not be taken to the gas and sick.
Imagine a country with ordinary man to be so sadistic killers.wait it is Germany .even today they are like this.racistisch with everyone that don’t speak their language.they should call it Naziland.Not Deutschland
Imagine if the German was like; 'I guess it doesn't work' then proceeded to point the gun and pull the trigger on himself or one of his comrades?🤣welp. Oh well, one less important person.
@@quesosaucedo5899 they are still the descendants of Israeli jews. My aunt and uncle found out after their daughter was born, their ancestors came from a tribe in ancient Israel where they wouldn't marry outside of the tribe. Many were interwed with one another causing incest, and from there one of several rare Jewish genetic mutations occurred, where if a couple have the same ancestral tribe (like my aunt and uncle) their child has a likely chance of having it. My cousin was born with it, and passed in 2014.
@@SalemElloit what tribe are they from? and israeli jews are not descendants of hebrew jews they are the new jewish state announced in may 14 1948 by pres. truman that star is the star of ramphan remeber (israel) is a man not a country
@@quesosaucedo5899 I have no idea what tribe my ancestry comes from. Israeli people, whatever you want to call them, are God's chosen people. He named them Hebrews, and yes, they are the descendants from them. Otherwise the diseases that came from Israel from tribes committing incest, wouldn't be around today. Are you a Hebrew Israelite, or one that believes the 'true' Jewish were blacks?
This event was actually described by someone who lived through it. Spielberg discovered it in his research for the film, or so I'm told. One miraculous event.
What really got me about this scene was the emotion in them all. Not that this scene had a lot of emotion, but it had none. What got me is that these guys had the emotion of someone shooting a hurt cow.
In colonial India, the British won't shoot an Indian who rebelled. Their idea was it was a waste of a bullet as an Indian's life was not considered worth a bullet or the dignity of a quick death. Instead all officers were asked to "dispose" of indians using whatever crude tools they could find lying around. The British were no way morally superior to what you are seeing here.
This is actually improvised. The director saw that they were going to shoot someone, he thought it was funny that they couldn't so he decided to film it.
Oh trust and believe all who died during that time are in a much better place than we are in right now Gods promise to all who endured to the end but a trust and believe all the germs who took part in this will suffer a worst death an eternal suffering you might not understand now but one day you will
"Maybe it's the pin..." No... Maybe it's because you didn't actually load your magazine. If you watch, each time he toggles the weapon after the initial charging, no round ejects. He cocks and recocks both pistols and no round ejects. If you insert a loaded magazine into a weapon, cock the charging mechanism, then continue to work the charging mechanism, unfired rounds would eject each time until the magazine was empty.
It's a MOVIE. Not every detail is gonna be exactly how it would be in real life. We get that you know how a gun works and feel the need to act like no body else knows but in the end it is a work of FICTION and they were trying to show something "miraculous" and didn't want to have real ammo in a gun for a scene
@@changeonthemoon5651 you can use dummy rounds in order to portray that, it’s not a detail most people will catch but for those who do it completely ruins the scene
Or it's because old magazines lips tend to bend a lot when they are dropped on the ground. With the bend lips, no round is pushed inside the chamber. If the magazine was empty, the slide would be locked to the rear
Yes, if they showed the round cycle out and then drop it would have made much more of an impact. At least to those that understand guns. 🤔 I would be been 😳 either Devine intervention or the firing pin was broken…….on both guns. They again maybe then did know how to cycle a round or check to see if one was even in the camber. 🤷🏼♂️
@@klausvon3139 so excuse poorly thought out scenes? All I could think of watching this was how there is no ammo in the guns because I understand how they work. It took away from the intensity of the scene
@@klausvon3139 🙄you don’t say. If the movie was trying to convey a realistic impression through out the whole thing but left this part completely wrong? 🤨ok.
Actually Oskar Schindler produced ammunition but with weak primers and gunpowder in the shell(faulty ammo). So after minutes of trying to shoot the guy, he just gave up.
How did you manage to not acknowledge what they’re saying? you must have attention span of a goldfish my man. He’s clearly (as specified in the short) a nazi death camp commandant not a Nazi General. Not everyone with peaked hat is a General ffs
Aye. The Soviets used the pretense of an execution to get politicial dissidents / captured spies / PoW's to talk... it was creepily effective (in so much as a mass murdering regime's actions can be called "effective").
The main theory is the pin was flattened or bent. Don't know if it's possible during previous use or it was a newly newly issued gun with a factory defect. WW2/weapons' buffs feel free to identify the gun and problems with it, which i heard were common.
Common problem with this weapon... The Pistole Parabellum or Parabellum-Pistole, commonly known as just the Luger or Luger P08, is a toggle-locked recoil-operated semi-automatic pistol. The Luger was produced in several models and by several nations from 1898 to 1949. The design was first patented by Georg Luger.
Sadly this isn't drama, they really acted like this!! Notice the others taking advantage of these a- holes and running away.... at this poor soul's expense!!
Je hais l'armée, les armes au plus haut point, les interventions armées chez les autres peuples. Les horreurs plus récemment dans le Dombass. Je ne tolère que les armes défensives. Je dédaigne Macron ce larbin de L'OTAN et ce Zelynski. Ils me donnent réellement la nausée, pour les horreurs et exactions commises sur des Civils, hommes femmes compris , à savoir briser les os à coup de piochettes qui fracture les os du corps et du visage. Les gens tremblent et décèdent d'une hémorragie. Même sur des femmes depuis 2014 avec cet espèce de " silence des agneaux " . La plus grande décadence. Je ressens une honte sans fin pour cette presse si silencieuse quand je vois ces " nazis Ukrainiens AZOV " se livrer à des atrocités. Poutine est pour la circulation de toutes les personnes, Chrétiens, " Hébraïques , tout le monde , est bien venu chez lui , pour la PAIX . Alors VIVE POUTINE, sur ces conditions.
I heard stories of pow forced labor messing with artillery shells being manufactured for the germans. That tactic is still used to this very day. You can see it online in videos of terrorists dropping mortars in tubes only for them to immediately detonate, or watching people fire ak's that explode due to salted ammo.
I migth be wrong but to my knowledge pows weren't let anywhere near weapons or the manufacturing of them. They weren't stupid enough to do that. Edit: They did use forced laborers in their armament industry but that was towards the end of the war and in a small capacity.
This is why Schindler bought him, this is based on the story Schindler heard as shown in the movie. Later you'll see that this worker also serves as a Jewish religious leader.
I find it hard to believe that men were actually like this, the frightening thing for me is that given the right circumstances, they would be like this again.
You are correct, Hamas terrorists flooded over the Israeli Gazza boarder, and executed hundreds of totally innocent people, murdered for doing absolutely nothing wrong. The depth of which humanity can sink is mind blowing.
Amon Goeth is depicted here. He was a commandant of a notorious camp. His rank was SS-Hauptsturmführer and he was executed by hanging for war crimes in 1946.
I recently watched a couple of the movies the RU-vid algorithm has been recommending. Shindlers List, Tombstone, and American Psycho. All bangers!... Except AP, it was good. Just not Shindlers List level.
Your comment gives me the meme in my head that once he enables PVP/War Mode, instead the secret nazi nuclear warhead(fictional Nova 6) would blast out of his Luger barrel, wiping the whole death camp and the rest of the region.
Dude just dodged 10 bullets while staying still… even Neo couldnt have dont that😂 If that was me, as soon as i heard the first click i wouldve dropped forward and played dead just in case. 😂
Soldiers are only following orders, is the Iraq Veteran called a Mass murder because of all the children and women he shot&killed? Or was he just following orders
Something definitely wrong with those guns. If they were loaded, they'd be ejecting the chambered bullet every time the slide was racked. If they weren't loaded, the slide would be locking back and have to be manually released every time the slide was racked.
The film has fictionalized scenes within a real historical event and based on a non fictional book of a real man who saved 1100 Jewish people from the Holocaust. Did this scene happen verbatim? Probably not, but it’s a realistic depiction of what life was like within the camps during the Holocaust.
@@givemeRtxorgivemedeath it is a non fiction book based on the life of Oscar Schindler who saved over a thousand Jewish people. A real event, yes. But the film obviously has dramatized scenes to create emotional impact because it is a movie.
@@Jefferyeppystein not as stupid as the prop department who gave him no direction on how many rounds the gun can actually be loaded with; nor putting fake rounds in it…
It's not clear in this scene, but Schindler's factory manufactured those firearms and unbeknownst to his workers, Schindler recalibrated the machines to make sure the firing pins never worked.
For those who haven’t seen this scene fully - the gun never fires and he gets so angry he pistol whips the old man in the back of the head and they leave, letting him live.
@@loucifer9618 i like how you blame God for peoples actions instead of their own ideologies or actions themselves lmao. How could you point a finger at someone for an entire group of people who act on their own whim. Smh
@@DM-nx7tu Free will is great, but my point is why does the punishment of the wicked only apply AFTER we're dead? There's truly good and innocent people in this world that go through unimaginable suffering at the hands of others, but God shrugs it off as "Meh, y'all got free will, sort it out, and in your pain just praise me and know that after your life, you will enter my paradise". We help those in need but it's not enough. Where the fuck is the lazy egomaniac?
I remember my 8th grade year asking my teacher if we would be watching this film the following year (freshman year). She had such an angry look on her face.... Began to tell me how they used to show it with parents approval but no longer were aloud. She wasnt mad at me for asking. She was mad because her job was to teach and by not showing us this movie she knew we'd never have even a grasp of how horrible the Holocaust was.
It's always fascinating to struggle with these apparent miracles in the midst of so much suffering. How could the miracle happen to one and not another? Life and death are complex friends.
This scene is acted perfectly towards the end by the SS guy. Germans joined the SS by free will and not only because they were fascist ideologes, but also because they were oppurtunists who where constantly on a power trip. They were psychopaths who wanted to feel powerful above all else. You can see the distress the actor shows when he doesn't have the ability to rule over life or death of other humans anymore. He can't comprehend it and falls into desparation.
That's horrific. The way they are so casual like his life means nothing. he's genuinely furious at his guns inefficiency more than anything else. Absolute monster.
