If Fury was a French Film 

This might be a bad idea, but im sure it will still be a good video

I read this in the squire voice lol

I must ask now that you’ve got LazerPig will you have the original tank memer Potential History himself as a VA?

Let me guess... Your gonna do a Japanese version of this, aren't you?

Also squire great timing, we're coming to the day WWII ended.

Allies used just as much meth to run from the Germans for 2 months without sleep.

High on that fascism

Thanks mate, appreciate that. All of the guys are super talented, and It gives some opportunity for some "in" jokes that only language speakers will get.

Even the Americans speak fluid 'merican! ... and are hilarious.

agreed :P

It is remarkably refreshing to hear the actual language spoken by a native speaker instead of the standard 'American doing a bad accent'.

@@SquireComedy yeah i live in france and some stuff i heard them say got me laughing for 1 and a half minute

XD don't tell me that's really happened

@@k.v.7115 During Operation Barbarossa the Germans would make sure to always have German divisions between Hungarian and Romanian divisions to avoid "Friendly fire" incidents. Also both had soldiers from each others ethnicity who would try to desert to the other army when they had the chance.

@@boomerix That was unexpected...

@Long Hei Linus KWAN The entire Axis alliance was less of an "alliance" and more of a mix of opportunists being courted and threatened by Germany to ally with them. The only thing that held them together was their mutual hate for the Communists/Soviets.

Hungary: Never thought I'd die side by side with a Romanian. Romania: What about side by side with a commie hater? Hungary: ...Aye. I could do that. MAYBE!

*English tank, as was pointed out by the commander.

@@johnandrews8293 yes I saw

you'd be surprised how many actually speak like that, myself included ;o)

I heard the voice and it took me about 5 minutes to figure out who it was 😂

How did the US supplied Germany? Nazis were thinking America is only made of: cowboys, natives (Indians) cows, vast prairies and buffalo. + maybe some railroads. Ps. Pz II was not moving while it should - in "Fury" the Tiger was not shooting from the range but driving forward for no reason.

@@HanSolo__ The American automobile company, General Motors, owned Opel which made trucks for Germany.

I though I recognized that voice! As if misidentifying tanks wasn't a hint enough.

Fr like we literally have won The most wars ever and were known as retreating even when we did retreat it was because we ran out of supplies

that one hit home I'll admit ^^

When you know one b1bis fought alone against 14 panzers and won...

Cheers mate, glad to hear that!

The flag thing cracked me up. French tanks weren't quite good for the time, but their overall tactic was terrible (no or few radio depending on the tank batallion, flags, and no massive armored group...).

You took the words right out of my mouth

I was shocked when I heard his voice

what did that have to do with anything

Indeed it is! Such a lovely chap.

Don't worry, there'll be an American happy to carry that burden for another 50 years at least!

18 gears? Because they love to make things overly complicated.

@@Briselance Nope, it's because they have 6 gears for forward, and 12 for reverse

@@SuperiorBrick I was thinking 17 reverse 1 forward but close enough

Its the americans that started the whole french retreat meme

Every time I saw the plane in the background I was laughing so hard

Y’all fucked now

Well, not exactly a fair fight... for the panzers 😈

We would see a lot of kamikaze tanks like in that one japanese ww2 movie (I forgot it's name)

There is Girls und Panzer... which has drifting and other over the top stunts with the vehicles, school girls instead of grown up men as the cast, and obviously it's an anime... so, is there any way it could be more Japanese? ...although I guess the plot could bear more resemblance to the original Fury, but you know, can't have everything.

Yay! Tankettes!

So everyone just charges

Godzirra!

Thanks for watching, old chap

Oh

@@baconsoldier3876 yeah "oh" is right.

They never miss

If I may bother you with a question, can you identify the different German accents in the video, and possibly explain their significance? I'm an ignorant American and don't have an ear for it, unfortunately. Thank you.

@@eldorados_lost_searcher No problem, happy to answer the question :-) There are many German dialects throughout the German speaking part of Europe (Germany, Switzerland, Austria, parts of Italy, parts of France, parts of Romania), some of which are indeed almost unintelligble to speakers of "high German". I myself hail from a region of Italy where people speak a rather archaic dialect with a very strong Italian influence, and most Germans understand maybe 20-50% of what I say. So there are big differences, depending on where you live. Broadly speaking, there is the "northern group" consisting of the northern half of Germany, and the "southern group" consisting of the southern half of Germany and all the other regions (Austria, Switzerland etc.). The northern group of dialects shares some minor similarities with Dutch and English and is (broadly speaking) much closer to "high German", while the southern group retains some very weird archaic characteristics. The Bavarian dialect is the most prominent and well-known of the southern dialects and is well-known for its use of a distinctive "r" sound (a trill, much like in Italian or Spanish) which most other German dialects don't have. The guy at 0:14 is speaking high German with a very strong Bavarian accent - most Germans would instantly recognise this. To Germans, this is quite entertaining, since the various regions of Germany have several stereotypes attached to them, and the Bavarians more so than others: the Bavarians are the ultimate beer-drinkers, the guys wearing lederhosen and eating sausages; they're staunch catholics, conservative and have an extremely high opinion of themselves bordering on arrogance, and yet are also very boorish (the hillbillies of Germany, if you will - please note that all of these are stereotypes, not necessarily reality!). The rest of Germany kinda laughs at them because of their haughty manner and funny dialect. Think of them as an American would of a Texan :-P In the video, pretty much all the Germans are speaking high German (perhaps with the odd tinge of a dialect here and there, though I couldn't tell which) aside from the one Bavarian at 0:14 and 0:26 (here you can really hear the distinctive "r" sound). Other dialects which are often the butt of jokes in Germany are Swiss German, Swabian German (from Southwestern Germany, closely related to Swiss), Austrian German (very close to Bavarian), and, most of all, Saxon (East Germany). In recent years the Saxon dialect which, like the Bavarian one, has long been associated with boorishness / hillbillies, has attained a more sinister reputation in Germany. The far-right (borderline Nazi) AfD party has its strongest support in the East German region of Saxony, so whenever someone uses the Saxon dialect in other parts of Germany, other people will sometimes feel instinctively uneasy. This is, of course, unfair to Saxons, who are by no means all far-right nutjobs! Since you are from the US: think of German dialects as you would of what people in the English-speaking world call "accents". Within the US, someone from Vermont may speak something quite close to Canadian English, while someone from California may speak English with a strong Spanish accent and influence. People from the midwest and the south speak a variety of drawls long associated with backwardness and boorishness (though this is, of course, also unfair!). Many US English accents are so distinct that even many Germans here in Europe can distinguish them and understand the stereotypes attached to them. Here's a sample to demonstrate the variety: Sample sentence (English): "I bake a loaf of bread." High German: "Ich backe einen Leib Brot." South Tyrolean (my own dialect, from a German speaking region of Italy): "I pock an Loab Brout." Bavarian: "I bock an Leib Brot." Austrian (Vienna variety): "Ich back an Lääb Brot." (You can see that the words used are very close to English, which is also a Germanic language and closely related to Dutch and German. Nonetheless, there are distinctive differences in pronunciation between the various dialects.) Hope I was able to help and give you a short introduction into the dialects. If I may ask, do you use a specific English accent? If so, which?

@@Alopex1 That was way more information than I was expecting. Thank you, I'll try to develop my ears for the subtle differences in German going forward. My base accent is a cross between New Yorker and New Englander, but I've lived outside of my old stomping grounds for half my life, so I've developed some bad habits, inspired by my residence in the mid and deep south. So I'll drop my R's when I'm angry, and in the same sentence say "y'all." If you want more than that, I'll be glad to try to analyze it further, but that'll require more introspection in my speech patterns than I'm used to.

By the way, the French surrender jokes were democratized by the americans, only the France refused to participate to the 2nd Gulf War

@@Alopex1 as a Texan, Bavarians sound a lot like Texans....with their own German southern drawl

obviously the Germans voices are made by German people...

Also: goddammit, Digby!

Pretty sure that happened in real life, except it made sense, because the Soviets were in a KV-2 and were dug in- in a swamp, and the Germans couldn't get around them. Then of course there is the good old: Comrades, we are tank! If the enemy takes out our tracks, we become a gun emplacement! If they take out our cannon, we become pilbox! If they take out our machinegun, we become bunker! And if they take us out, we become heroes!

I was thinking, the stand-by tank is still Germany, and the tank who's marching toward him is an endless line of T-34

@@GrubnarThere Was Eltzin's time movie "Tank Klim Voroshilov" here the "big gun KV" had stuck on river crossing and they decided to stay and defend it, which somewhat was based on a wreckage arrangement once found.

@@EllAntares The one I am thinking of was not by a river. The Germans had dozens of tanks, but they were all Skoda's or Panzer II's or III's, so the biggest gun they had was a 50 mm ... that just went PLINK! against the thick armour of the KV-2. I remember reading how, after the battle, the Soviet crew counted the scratches and dent to see how often they had been hit, and they gave up when they got to 100 and were not even close to being done! I think it may have been south of Leningrad, or Saint Petersburg, as it is named now. This may have been an extreme example, but there were many such cases, and that was why the Germans were so quick to add high velocity 75 mm guns on their tanks, and started building larger tanks to fit the huge 88 mm gun! Edit: Corrected 500 mm to 50 mm. Thanks Tom!

@@tom170670 LOL! Yes, thank you ... that is a silly typo. 500 mm would be a Railway gun.

Welcome aboard!

The shermins are going to be like Tigers to the Japanese tanks until the Chi Nu shows ip with it's own 75mm gun.

True

"diabolical laughter" from a "methed-up, trigger happy German Tank commander"... AKA "things you never knew you needed in your life". I recently saw a photo of a German immigrant at Ellis Island completely covered in tattoos like any typical skinhead... except the photo was from... 1910??? Nothing new under the sun I guess, so I'm sure there really was some "methed-up, trigger happy German Tank commander" "laughing diabolically" during WW2!
