The Red Baron 

We're thinking of doing a follow up to this in a month or two as we couldn't fit everything in. Let us know if you think its a good idea and what we should include. Thanks for all the great comments !

I shed a tear when the British paid respect to the Red Baron saying "To Our Gallant And Worthy Foe".

Born a soldier from the horse back to the skies Thats where the legend will arise!

Even the Enemy showed Respect to him...man back in the Days..People had way more Respect then today.

"old pilots never die they just fly higher" - my shirt.

R E S P E C T Is everything, whatever age, whatever era, friend or foe, Respect can't be ignored

"The french attacking spirt is like a bottle of lemonade" You guys keep teasing the french when it's about the world wars haha

The Red Baron, was a true soldier. Not just his allies, but also his foes respected him. Not just in the land but also in the air. He deserves to be remembered. R.I.P, The Brave Red Baron

"its not that big of a deal, its just another German fighte... ITS MANFRED VON RICHTHOFEN"

It’s simply amazing how most people know about “The Red Baron” even without knowing who he was or anything about The Great War. He’s such a legend that even people who have no care for history know him as the red biplane fighter ace. That’s a legend if I’ve ever heard one.

The thing that I love the most about this story is that when he is shot down, he is not treated like trash, like how you’d expect they would treat an enemy. He was treated with great respect. The amount of skill that he possessed was incredible, and the fact that the enemy was willing to admit that in the end is what makes it so rich. Rest In Peace, Red Baron.

Red Baron's story is actually the first one that made me think "War is a horror" because I've realised he wasn't even 30 when he died

Plane painter: I'll give you a green camouf- The Red Baron: *how 'bout no?*

"And he's flying Higher!, the king of the sky!"

Hearing as a German last words:"kaputt" is really sad.

"i have not gone to war to collect cheese and eggs" he was accepted.

Red Baron: King of the Skies Bismarck: King of the Ocean

For all the people who don't know, kaputt in english means broken.

HIGHER KING OF THE SKIES

Notice how after his own injuries, becoming a victim of war, it changed him - empathy all of a sudden, i guess near death will mature you like nothing else. A brave man none the less. ✊🏻🎩🤘🏻

When you're so badass your enemies give you a proper respectful burial

HIGHER KING OF THE SKIES HES FLYING TOO FAST HES FLYING TOO HIGH HIGHER AN EYE FOR AN EYE *THE LEGEND WILL NEVER DIE*

TEN, TWENTY, THIRTY, FOURTY, FIFTY OR MORE. *THE BLOODY RED BARON WAS ROLLIN' UP A SCORE*

Fun fact: his uncle Ferdinand von Richthofen was the one who coining the terms the Silk Road.

The man who inspired me to become a fighter pilot!

German ground forces: let's use camouflage colours! Some flying boi:

🎵 *HIGHER, THE KING OF THE SKY* 🎵 🎵 *HE'S FLYING TOO FAST AND HE'S FLYING TOO HIGH* 🎵 🎵 *HIGHER, AN EYE FOR AN EYE* 🎵 🎵 *THE LEGEND WILL NEVER DIE* 🎵

Watching in 2021. Yarnhub's animation has evolved so much. Keep up the good work Yarn!

"To our gallant, and worthy foe"

Really enjoyed seeing some German representation and not just the typical Germany bad allies good

,,A flying circus and a man from prussia" - An extremly smart guy with a voice

War can be dark, dank, and unforgiving. But it can also shed beauty.

He is a legend he will always be remembered rip Der Rote Kampfflieger aka the red baron 🙏🙏😭😭

It's pretty eerie how similar Richthofen's and Billy Bishop's stories are: - They were initially cavalrymen. - They WANTED to fight in the air. - They were observers before being pilots. - They were underperfoming pilots at first. (You could argue that Bishop was a good shot but a terrible pilot though.) - They were aces with high victory counts. No wonder why their encounter with each other ended in a draw; they were some of the greatest aces of the war. EDIT: I fixed a wording error; it is debatable whether or not they were the greatest aces of the war. However, that is not to say that they were not some of the greatest aces in the war.

STAINED RED AS BLOOD, HE'S ROAMING HIGHER

Holy damn! 12 years of history lessons as a German and I just found out about this heroic bastard in a RU-vid video?! Our school system is the worst Still: press F to pay respect 🇩🇪

He really lives up to his reputation. After all, it took so many tries, foes, and chances (whether it's calculated or mere luck) to actually stop him. Even more than a century, people still debate about his last flight. How can you not be marvel by such a man?

Call out his name ROTE KAMPFFLIEGER!!

Eyyy, my favourite history channel’s back!

His intelligence and twisted sense of humour was just amazing.And at how he inspires so many people today as at first he was a horrible pilot but then later on he became a legend and was feared and respected by the allies. It just shows his bravery nd epiness. PS: loved it when he said in the letter for his transfer to the air force. Another proof of him being such a funny man.

"To our gallant and worthy foe" then the music, ah the chills man

Who shot down the Red Baron? I say it was Snoopy

Even in war, a man knows another man whom deserves respect.

Damn, what a legend. Friend or foe doesn't matter, he fully committed himself to flying to the very end. All I can say is respect for this man.

HIGHER, THE KING OF THE SKY HE'S FLYING TOO FAST AND HE'S FLYING TO HIGH HIGHER, AN EYE FOR AN EYE THE LEGEND WILL NEVER DIE... Swedish metal band Sabaton has a song called "The red baron" on their latest album, GO listen to it!!

*HIGHER THE KING OF THE SKIES HES FLYING TOO FAST AND HES FLYING TOO HIGH*

Insert Sabaton reference *[HERE].*

That introduction is freaking epically poetic.

Just today he uploaded a remake that looks 10 times better, but the script is almost the same

Thank you for letting more people know that he didn’t use his Dr1 all of his career.

This is a warrior everyone should read about, in detail. I have studied fighter aircraft my whole life, and I keep learning more about Richthofen, in my fifties. After his head injury, he changed. He had alot of trouble shooting down his last ...And his writing about it all changed. I can relate. I have a permanent head injury, that changed me for ever. I went on to learn and do complicated jobs, after. Two specialists told me tgat it is very rare for someone with my permanent pain and troubles seeing clearly (even with 20/10 vision, I could see in the dark), to return to complicated work. It is little known that flying planes, esp fighters, was very difficult . They never flew straight, needing constant controlling, and very easy to lose control. Very loud, cold, ....All of it was difficult. And fighters never had time off, unless wounded. Comnand did nit understand how hard it was. Pilots actually lost thier minds from stress. Capt. Brown suffered bad from stomach ulcers, and had alot of pain the day of the Baron's encounter. Anyway, all of his exploits and comments are way deeper than described in a short video.Our youth should learn from the "old ways".

Taking a puff out of my blunt each time I see a Sabaton reference, I guess I'm getting... *HIGHER*

The Baron has always be a story I admired. The “White Death”, “T.E. Lawerence”, and the “Red Baron”... plus many more are the main reason for my love of history. They were men who in times of great peril and great terror put it all on the line. They stood above the rest, and wrote their names into the history books.

If you dont get at least 100K subs by 2020 then that's unfair, yall should sub for this kinda quality content

Man and machine and nothing there in between A flying circus and a man from Prussia The sky and a plane, this man commands his domain The western front and all the way to Russia Death from above, you're under fire Stained red as blood, he's roaming higher Born a soldier from the horseback to the skies That's where the legend will arise And he's flying Higher, the king of the sky He's flying too fast and he's flying too high Higher, an eye for an eye The legend will never die First to the scene he is a lethal machine It's Bloody April and the tide is turning Fire at will it is the thrill of the kill Four in a day shot down with engines burning Embrace the fame, red squadron leader Call out his name, Rote Kampfflieger In the game to win, a gambler rolls the dice Eighty allies paid the price And he's flying Higher, the king of the sky He's flying too fast and he's flying too high Higher, an eye for an eye The legend will never die Higher Higher, the king of the sky He's flying too fast and he's flying too high Higher, an eye for an eye The legend will never die Higher Born a soldier from the horseback to the skies And the legend never dies And he's flying And he's flying And he's flying Higher, the king of the sky He's flying too fast and he's flying too high Higher, an eye for an eye The legend will never die Higher, the king of the sky He's flying too fast and he's flying too high Higher, an eye for an eye The legend will never die

Even the enemy has so much respect on him

Did he really say „ Kaputt „ as his last word ? If yes then this man really dedicated his heart into this .

Holy crap, that intro gave me chills. The entire video was extremely well done.

Flying high like a red bird. Wunderbar!

When you unlock the paint bucket tool

BORN A SOLDIER TO THE HORSEBACKS TO THE SKYS, and the legend never dies

"Higher! The King of the sky! He's flying too fast and he's flying too high! Higher! And eye for an eye! The legend will never die!"

Those enemies are even better than the people that say GG after losing BIG respect to those guys

First night binge watching your videos. Exceptional content, doesn't only fascinate about the history but sheds lights on the power of humanity.

The Red Baron, the one person that might have loved flying a warplane so much that he decided he would rather be shot down gloriously rather than become a civilian. Since it was so uncharacteristic of him, there's a good chance that this was the desired result.

My grandpa used to tell me the story about The Red Baron, I was a little kid back then, I wasn't really understand until I got older, It was a really inspiring story and a sad one, yet I still don't really know that much about The Red Baron until Yarnhub made a video about the Red Baron, Thank you so much, I found your channel by random from a website and found a video about the German fighter that spare an American bomber, your channel is very educative and very very entertaining to watch... Once again... Thank you.

Press F for RESPECT Ok gotta admit that was a good one

from 2d animation all the way to 3d masterpieces wow

"Kaputt" - Red Baron

On our 8th episode of Cat Hunters we find a cat at 5:46, us here at Cat Inc haven’t seen any others, have you?

The first few seconds were jaw-dropping for me, the narration is simply phenomenal!

Yarnhub with ur active content like this, i can assure u will come to top IN NO TIME

Some of the animations are mind blowing. I can’t wait to see more of these episodes in the future!

I've been binge watching all the episodes you have I just can't seem to get enough they're all works of art!

this is the second video I've watched from this channel and wow, i felt like 30 emotions in this one video.

Great video once again YarnHub!

Der rote Baron ist mein Lieblingsfilm!

I like the cover photo for the video. An Albatros. Most people don't know that Germany used many different aircraft throughout the war, not just the Fokker Dr1 used near the end.

The Reaction to the Red Barons death is like the British Royal Navy felt after the Bismarck sank.

This is so good!! Would love to see more coming!! P.S.: Albeit litle info, I would love to see a video about Yang Kyoungjong from you guys!!

AND HES FLYING HIGHER, THE KING OF THE SKIES! HE'S FLYING TOO FAST AND HE'S FLYING TOO HIGH!

one of the best channels for documentary i have had came across on youtube❤❤❤

I am starting to like this channel even more then simple history! Love the content + keep it up!

Your videos have great animation and your voice is soothing. Veery very good. Keep up the good work creating these animations.

This is probably the best history channel I've stumbled on!

My new favorite RU-vid channel. Everything you make is top notch!!

Another amazing video ❤ Only discovered your channel a couple of days ago and cannot stop watching ❤

Somehow, this makes me like that channel more than Simple History. It's simpler and more lively.

The beginning really felt like I was there

The lesson scene was SOOOO good. Omg the music and visuals gave me chills

When British said " To our gallant and worthy foe" that made me to shed tears Respect to The Red Baron respect to the legendary WW1 fighter ace

And he's flying!

This is great animation quality, every time.

That ending is an example of what honor should look like. No matter what side you are on.

Dam this dude had 80 victories? Man hes an absolute legend from how far he had come from crashing in his first solo flight. He will be remembered

The amount your animations have improved is absolutely incredible. This is still one of my favourite videos tho, all I would say is that the Red Baron and the Flying Circus didn't fully paint their planes, only partly. But I love watching these videos all the same, they're always accurate (this being the only minor thing I've found) and well narrated.

Worth the wait the animation is great!

Ah the memories, this was the first introduction of me to your channel.

I think an another Sabaton + YarnHub music video is needed for this one too. The Nightwitches and No Bullets Fly were 2 great masterpieces however this one "The Red Baron" needs an animated music video too. Like the Sabaton said "Embrace the flame, Red Squadron Leader". And still great job YarnHub I learned many things from this channel and Sabaton songs.

Only just found this channel, but I already love it :) You've earned my sub, and I hope you get many more - you deserve it!
