Simo Häyhä | The Deadliest Sniper In Military History 

Second

Why did you post this a year after?

I love how you pronounce "Häyhä" wrong, but still try your best and I gotta give you that.

LiT ik same 😂

@Weird History At 1:40, ". . . Häyhä may have cut down several hundred enemy combatants with a submachine gun . . ." while the video shows a tripod-mounted crew-served machine gun.

Imagine if played shooter games

He IS the perk.

And no attachments

Black Dynamite bro what u mean I killed the Minecraft enderdragon with a shovel

Basically I Quack Jesus Christ I felt the alpha male radiating from this comment

He doesnt need killstreaks. He IS the UAV

He was making sure they didn't try any shit.

If the USSR lasted to 2555, he probably would've too.

It was formed within his life too

He had to finish showing domininance over USSR.

What’s even interesting he was born when the Tsar was still around and Finland was part of The Russian Empire. He outlived The Russian Empire and USSR.

Olen samaa mieltä, Simo oli legendaarinen..

kyllä. hattu päästä veteraaneille.

Take my love and respect to those veterans from India.

@@utkarshtrivedi8870 defienitly, but right now were talking about Simo häyhä. Props to you though!

@@irissicly Simo Hayha don't need special mention bcoz he was really special and outstanding 🙂 After reading and watching documentaries about winter war and continuation war, I have developed respect and love for the Finns and Finland 🇫🇮

Hayha: *"Should have gone for the brain"*

“Only” blew half his goddamn face off

A HE bullet at that. o_o

@@ItJstWrks357 it häyhä

I haven't laughed this hard in months

Eipä oo/No there is not

Yeah but despite that peace treaty Finland lost some land which doesn't make sense to me because Finland was defending to the bitter end.

@@503redbull Finland didnt fight to bitter end! We stopped when we saw we were beaten! Soviet numbers were too high and we didnt have men to hold the line! Germans fought to bitter end!

@@simohayho8622 Dang man i thought you guys did. What ive learned is that Finland had a big advantage because they had well trained ski soldiers while the Russians didn't prepare and didn't expected that.

@@503redbull Russians had tanks, Russians had artillery, Russia had huge amounts of ammo and Planes! Finland barely had any real AT Weapons barely any ammo, no airforce exept what Germans donated and no good guns! Finland fought most of the time with ammo they managed to scavenge from their kills! Finnish soldiers used the terrain and their wits to balance the situation! Finns didnt realy have any advantages!

And they actually did it twice and failed both times

@@j.t8529 yeah, loosers... 👍🏻😂

Its like a total of noobs facing against a tryhard

The real Yuichiro Hanma

I was thinking the same thing. To me this reminds me of the Spartans 300 vs the Persians. Those were like some modern Spartans

@@RockerFinland and after winter, 4 finns were still alive and over 400 soviets died which teknically means that if there would be 320 finns then all 4000 would have died.

soviets were 125 times more in that battle

I have even seen where Stalin and Hitler had a Non Aggression Pact in 1939.

@Promaja uGlavu I hope that you get paid for this kind of thinking... Please do tell, what soviets did to their own citizen in 20-30 and please do tell that all the atrocities of nazis of 40's was a completely of Germany fault, not the socialists that raped half of Germany. Socialism is the worst ideology in matter of persons killed, but still some of people happily endorse it. (And yes, fascism and national socialism are just the other side of the socialism coin.)

It took centuries for death to man up and. Rhm die.

When he got hit and was recoverd from the hospital he wanted to fight again

BODY BUILDERS HATE HIM

Why would death fear one of his most diligent field agent? Death himself was busy with the deathcamps of the nazis and the aftermath of stalins cleansing, he had to send but his abled man to do his work on the russian lines. And boy oh boy, did he do his reapy work. He reaped 'em good, he reaped 'em long.

He's like Nah mann

Sam De jonge they won’t even notice him

Lol just an outdated hunting rifle will do :D

LMFAOOOOOOOOO

All I know is the real Winter Soldier is way cooler than Bucky even though his major battle wound isn’t nearly as sexy as a metal arm.

he was a hero, respect from a Finn. ❤️

This thing is also referred as an Easter egg in Halo Reach

​@@animelover5499explain how so i can try find?

False. "Recoil" is an infamous urban legend and online myth attributed to different snipers. Snopes debunked "recoil" quotes on Jan. 15, 2006. You can google it. "'What do you feel, if anything, when you shoot an Al Quaeda freedom fighter from such a long distance?' The young soldier shrugged his shoulders and replied: 'RECOIL' & turned and walked away." "Katie Couric, while interviewing a Marine sniper, asked: 'What do you feel when you shoot a terrorist?' The Marine shrugged and replied: 'Recoil.'" "US Special Forces soldier was asked what he felt when shooting members of al Qaeda in Afghanistan. The soldier shrugged and replied, 'Recoil.'" "Many who have served in the U.S. armed forces in previous conflicts have reported hearing the tale during their time in the service. In particular, we've heard from a number of men who fought in the Vietnam War and who encountered the story at that time, either as a "bar tale" or as a comment scrawled on a latrine wall."

Halo Reach game has a Easter egg for that line.

What does that mean ?

@@cupcake-cx5ov Means Simo Hayha felt nothing for the Russian soldiers he sniped, just the recoil from the sniper shots her fired.

except this is false, the whole "recoil" snap reply is a classic tall tale. There is no evidence that Häyhä or anyone else for that matter gave that response.

JC Denton that's not what he's trying yo say. He faced death so many times, even getting shot in the jaw, and yet not only lived, but grew old.

@@a_green_cat "he lived almost 100 years with half of his face". How does that not make sense? The guy was shot halfway through his life, which means he couldn't have lived for 100 years with half a face.

@@ideeyes4054 😆

He was in his 20s

That sounds like it could be true but it also sounds like an awesome legend.

@@incominghitdadirt9587 a lot of legends are loosely based on truth, some more so than others

This is complete BS, because he didn't always attack from the same spot. He also didn't leave shells and other traces.

Cool story but total bs. Have you ever been in the mountains? Huge rocks don’t even stay in one place for that long to much freeze and melt down on intense sloping. Plus his own accounts he speaks about being afraid to more than a couple shots from one spot.

What are you talking about? Why are you on the internet making up stories from your head and presenting them as fact?

@Grayman . Wrong Finnish soilder

ThaMuffinz The actual interview where that comes from was between a journalist and a US Marine scout sniper in Afghanistan back in 2011

Nobody ever said that, it's entirely fabricated.

What, great shooters cant be smart asses?

@@eriktruchinskas3747 Sure they can, but statistically, keyboard warriors are far more likely to be smart asses.

Tzar Simeon simo didnt suffered from ptsd, he caused it

@@carso1500 No he didn't cause PTSD. You have to survive for that to happen.

@@mikeb9638 Technically, he did cause it because the Russian dudes seeing their friends get taken out right in front of them can cause PTSD.

He not suffer from PTSD, because HE IS THE PTSD XD

This dude must have been a psychopath

English Wikipedia currently says: The name "White Death" has been suggested to originate entirely in Finnish propaganda, rather than having been given to Häyhä by the Russians; according to information from prisoners, to the Russians "White Death" referred to a severe frost in the deep forest. Häyhä having the nickname "White Death" first appeared in the Finnish Winter War literature of the late 1980s.[13] The cited source [13] is a candiate thesis from the University of Oulu in Finland.

The Soviet: ok i guess we are dead already

The soviet: I have a army that can destroy yours in mere months. Finland: Checkmate, we have Simo The soviet: Ight imma head out

Abd the other Fin.

And lauri törni

Xiao u ruined the joke

"you know what this man can do I'm not going out ther-" *gets shot*

Russian rulet

The Soviet soldiers did not know that a sniper was working against them. They were not told the Finnish propaganda tales of the 700 killed.

@@ruthlesstruth8639 also soviet didn't have such losses, near Simo dislocation soviet has around 20-40 losses and not any proof that even 1 of this kill made Simo himself.

you go out there in the middle of WWII to check ''hey, this mans dead'' yourself truth is there were about 200. its obvious no sort of accurate recording can be provided, and its true the numbers are exaggerated by a lot.

I guess he didn't want to shoulder the blame.

Thats bad ass🇫🇮

Simo was a pretty chill and peaceful dude... But he was defending his home so to imply someone should feel guilt for that is incredibly disrespectful

@@MichaelBrown-rg8oi And stupid.

Well he was fighting Soviets so that's fitting.

They could not find him because all the supply drops and Iyou have a good few lines man 😉

Tactical nukes were canceled in Winter War so the opponent would not get salty

Simo *is* such a legend. I’m happy to find out that he had lived long enough from 1905 - 2007 Blessings.

He would also pack the outer barrel of his Rifle with snow to eliminate shot condensation in the cold from giving away his position. This was a serious individual.

Don't go putting stuff into your mouth at random though. Use only the top layer.

@Pasi Herskoi I agree! And I genuinely think that Sweden would never let Finland stand alone if Russia (or any other country) attacks. What affects Finland will also affect Sweden. Finland are our brothers and sisters!

well said

Kiitos. Paras kommentti

You forgot the Swedes and The Battle of Poltava

Too many active fronts east, west and south at one time rather than concentrating supplies an man power on one front at a time, was Germany's fatal flaw. Supply lines were too easily cut off due to lack of soilders and supplies to hold the fronts. Had they waited to go against their agreement with the Soviets history may be very different and who knows wtf kind of works we live in today had that happened.

@@patricklawton8135 That was probably just a joke, but you are right. The logistics were a nightmare and DDAY was nothing compared to Barbarossa if we talk about how many logistic problems there would be. Probably Germany would have won nothing in the long run anyway because the Russians could move their Capital to Tashkent or even in the far east until the war was won. Attrition casualties were extremely big and they had 0 bratwursts.

Consider how little Finnish men talk, like my dad. It would need to be a silent film :DD

He died in early 2000s

more like a blockbuster budget movie.

Bro if you want i believe netflix is doing Records of Ragnarok which will have Hayha in it along with others like Lu Bu from Romance Of The Three Kingdoms, Adam from the bible, Tesla, Leonidas, etc. it is an anime so yeah but honestly its pretty hyped and they respect the history/origins of the characters pretty well when it comes to the humans...highly recommend the manga has been hella hype

The Soviet sniper shoots Simo... The Soviet sniper: WHAT!! How was that only a hit marker?!?!?!?

Hahaha

he dont got no scope tho

@@GuilhermeRodrigues-jr7gd isn't that the point of the joke?? "Hold my scope" because he did not use it, like saying? "Fukk the scope, i don't need it"

He has no scope on his sniper

@@Gnomechild What in his comment made him triggered?

Sorry, Simo is too white and too much of the male gender to get his own movie nowadays.

Don’t know but enemy at the gates is close to it good movie

@@whitestripee sad reality of the west

Because he is not American, and is SOOOOOO much better than ANY American sniper in history. The USA barely makes the leaderboard of snipers worldwide, behind the likes of Russia, the UK, Canada, and even Sri Lanka, and that's with a vastly larger population, much better funded and equipped military, and vast superiority in men and materiel in almost every conflict. Chris Kyle killed mostly poorly trained armed civilian insurgents, or even unarmed ones, with total air, strategic and tactical superiority... oh well.

@@AltaMirage Bruh what the fuck even is your point

Finnish historian and docent Risto Marjomaa who wrote Häyhä's biography published in the National biography of Finland wrote in that article that the big numbers are likely lower, and arrived at a 200+ "kill-count" with the rifle.

The Army got Juba in Iraq via airburst mortar over his position and fragged him. His selfie camera was recovered and showed leaves falling above his quiet grave.

Actually, that was not unusual as a counter-sniper tactic during WW2.

The madlad even kept his hairstyle the same

I read that that it is pretty much standard practice to send mortar rounds into suspected sniper positions.

Outstanding move

He said ”Tein sen, mitä käskettiin, niin hyvin kuin osasin.” Which translates roughly: I did what they asked, as well as I could. After they asked if he ever felt guilt. Captured Soviets were the ones that actually felt guilt, they preferred execution over going back to Soviet "Union". They were smiling during execution.
