Vietcong Booby Traps 

There's another!? What is this? Mortal Kombat?

5th like boi

You should do video about 55 days at Peking1!1!1

The Vietcong as well as the North VNese, take the weapons from Communist to kill the South VNese people. I really hate the.

Other Viet Cong Traps : (Aren't even mention in the video) 1) Cartridge Trap : (A section of pipe, bamboo barrel or hole in timber with a tack nailed through the base upon which sits the cartridge with the round slightly above ground level.) 2) Grenade Trap : - These are placed along likely paths of travel with a two stakes embedded on both sides of the creek or stream with the grenade tied to one and the safety pin partially removed from the striker lever and tied by trip wire to the other stake. - Two cans are tied to trees either side of the track with the delay train and safety pins are removed and slide into the cans holding the striker levers in position. A trip wire is tied to both grenades. when the victim's foot pulls the trip wire the grenades are pulled from the cans causing instant detonation. Source : www.5rar.asn.au/weapons/boobytraps.htm 3) Rolling Spike Trap : (This trap has two rollers with pins sticking out. This means that you will get stung several times getting your leg in, and again, when pulling it out.) 4) Sticking Trap : (Step in this trap and your leg will get pierced.) 5) Clipping Armpit Trap : (Step in this trap and the wooden boards on either side begin to turn, sticking the pins straight into your leg. Furthermore, getting your leg out is going to be a problem.) 6) Window Trap : (This trap functions as it sounds, like a window. Actually, 2 windows with sharp pins in them that closes in on your leg if you walk into one.) 7) Folding Chair Trap: (This trap works exactly the same as an animal trap. When you step in it, your calves will be pierced with sharp pins from both sides in an instance.) 8) Swinging up Trap : (When you step in this trap, nothing immediately happens, however, in an attempt to pull your leg out, you will realize that that is not possible without pins sticking into your flesh.) 9) See Saw Trap : (When you step in this trap, the wooden structure would start to turn and hits you at your upper body with the sharp pins.) Source : travelfullstop.com/the-8-worst-vietcong-boobytraps-cu-chi-tunnels-vietnam/ 10) Gate Trap : (This is the gate trap. This consisted of a grenade set beneath a gate so that when a soldier went to open the gate the grenade would explode under the soldiers feet.) Source : waranalysisofvietnam.weebly.com/booby-traps.html 11) Rice Bag Bobby Trap : (String is attach to hand grenade inside rice bag. If soldier pull the string the hand grenade will explode).

Ahhh yes.

At least a landline would end it quick, right?

@@beatlecristian Depends how you step to it. If you step on it the way that your torso is straight up on the mine, you're a goner. But if you step in it with your foor being in front of torso, you might survive. Same with the spikes. If it pierced soldiers torso, they got their name on memorial wall. But if the spikes went through the foot, they had a change to survive.

@@Saunakiuas06 bet even amputation hurts less than a leg with spikes

Unless it's something like a bouncing Betty also known as a de-bollocker.

Edward you little disrespectful punk - you couldn't begin to imagine what those soldiers went through. You can't hold a candle to any of them.

According to what I know any US soldier hit the bear trap will have to be brought back the leg with the trap to Saigon for surgery and he will need all of his lucky to keep his leg during the surgery. And if you visited Cu Chi tunnel today you will see a tons of more deadly traps which the final one can crush entire human body if they stepped on it

True, but I've also read accounts from vietcong soldiers of their fears as they endured American bombing runs as they went up the ho chi minhn trail, as well as dealing with lack of food, the weather and also the animals themselves. One account has an entire platoon being wiped out by a tiger. Also, yes markers were laid, but i wander how many vietcong soldiers knew how to look for them and walked into those traps themselves. Finally, don't think the Green berets or navy seals were sitting on their assets, plenty of ambushes were laid of the vietcong as well.

@@The_Greedy_Orphan I think that tiger story is rubbish unless it's a ninja tiger.

@@reggieking1045 you haven't been to Asia before have you

@@tymontz8311 lol no i haven't but i'm struggling to imagine how a single tiger can take on an entire armed military platoon without using stealth tactics or a rocket launcher. :P

Its a very common standard tactic, a very similar reason for Land mines.

@@Suth1172 Mine blows up entire person: 1 person dead. Mine blows up and amputates a leg: 1 or more personnel required to carry him back, more resources required to heal him, more resources required for the home country to keep alive a disabled person

Vietnamese people are very smart and creative in combating aggression.

@@kurumi394 not to mention the mental effect to the rest of the team. Will you still advance after seeing your friend loose a limp :v

and when the injured man come back the camp, hundreds orther will see it and scare. that is good psychological war.

Well said👍, very relevant in today's Internet age. Also people should not give up hope in their local ingenuity to combat modern threats while fully assessing their psychological impact more than their game(or war) changing abilities. I fully believe Vietnam War was a psychological war.

@@astrolillo you’d be surprised on where they draw the line lol

It wouldve been too expensive also thw US couldnt have done it without the NVA or VC knowing . Thus the US just wamted to infiltrate NVA ans VC hideouts or the tunnels that were already made. They'll be ambushed if they spent there time trying to build tunnels. The tunnels were already there by the NVA and VC so they had no issues

That must have been so cool, if it wasn't for the fact that soldiers were recruited to go down there and hunt down the people in the tunnels

That's good. Your father had no business in there. Good thing he came back to the family.

Many civilians death after the war by mine or trap like this that left unknown .

1 more things , because i'm a Vietnamese . Just about 5 or 6 years ago i'm witness a man built a his new home . His crews dug up the land and found a massive bomb with the size of the 2xhuman that left in the ground for 50 years that haven't detonated yet . Luckily no one hurt , the bomb still alive , the military show up and disassembled it .

@@oklano1000 Traps area easily dispatched, as long as the ones who set it know the locations. Not many ppl die from traps, but from concealed mines, grenades, bombs etc. These were buried by the american, northern and southern vietnamese troops, so it's impossible to disarm every single one hidden out there. It's getting rarer though, less than 10 every year.

Imma viet too lol, village I grew up in used a bomb shell as a school bell xdd

@@innuendo3085 Lol yeah , people split the bomb and sold for money lol

Doesn't make any sense How does triggering a tiny bullet that's in the ground cause you to get shot from above?

​@@Ben-Dover777so what he meant to say is that it would blow the top of ur foot off LOL So they would put a small nail into the bullet in the ground facing upwards, when someone steps on that it would put enough pressure on the nail to fire the bullet thereby blowing the top of ur foot off as it would be the exit wound😃 Interesting stuff he just worded it differently, hope that helps🤗

@@merttopcu3085 umm ok? I know we have lost wars. Nam was a failure. Your so childish lmao

That's a common tactic in war because a death is one less soldier on the battlefield, but a wounded soldier is one less soldier plus all the resources needed to care for them.

@@rooty not only that. When soldier dies you burry him and move on (it's not THAT simple but you get my point) with a dying soldier it's a lot slower and it definitely crushes morale

They were designed to damage The soldier as much as possible, so surviving would Be almost impossible

Well they didnt want vietnam to be influenced by the communists so there was a lot at stake... Vietnam is very influential in the asian eastern world

@@Chuked From what I learned, they weren't even planning to be full-blown Communist, they sought for a structure to make as their government once they thought they were free from French Colonial occupation. Hard thing is, Ho Chi Minh was initially on very friendly terms with the USA, quoting even from some of their presidents. They wanted freedom from occupation (and Vietnam has been foreignly occupied by many countries even before France). But when France "wanted so badly its colony back" after the Japanese defeat and after WWII, the US decided to side with them instead of the Vietnamese. The rest is tragic history.

@@cv4809 These traps were made with the purpose of slowing american patrols and search and destroy parties by wounding them and thus to waste time and money covering their treatment. If they died while in treatment thats all the better.

A ways to kill enemy slowly in pain and suffering

Kill an enemy, take one out of the fight. Wound an enemy, you take him and anyone aiding him out of the fight. The dead guy is quiet. The wounded one is screaming and demoralizes his companions.

Duchi unless you live in Vietnam, don’t be. If you do, be careful. I hear there are still active land mines in Vietnam and other parts of the world. For anyone who’s wondering why they haven’t been dug up and disarmed yet, do you really think you’re going to remember where every single land mine you’ve placed in any country is?

first most of those mine are broken and been found and It is safe to walking in most of our forest now

B3ndy Ah. Okay. That info’s a few years old anyway. We still have American Civil War weapons and projectiles over here though. They’re just buried in the ground or are underwater.

nah it is newest info

just like what u set some bombs that US drop is still buried in our land but those bombs are buried really deep
