Greatest Last Stands In History

[@seraphik]

Two big absences (as a french) : The Battle of Camaron - This is where the mystique surrounding of the french foreign legion came from. 65 legionaires against 3000 mexicans, inflicting 500 casualties to the ennemy until they ran out of ammos, then the 5 last legionaires went into a final bayonet charge. The Knight Bayard - Recognized throughout europe at the epitome of chivalry. His story would deserve a movie, and he died in a rear guard action buying time for his men, standing alone on a bridge against an army of the holy roman empire, and pushing away the first waves, finally being defeated by an arquebus shot. But really, when it comes to this guy, his entire life was a fantasy come true.

[@solarianstorm]

And after the last legionnaires were finally captured, they, not the Mexicans, dictated the terms. The Foreign Legionnaires were legendary indeed.

[@Halcon_Sierreno]

@@solarianstorm Those legionaires were foreign invaders. They have no right to claim to be heroes. If anything they were the villains that refused to leave.

[@solarianstorm]

@@Halcon_Sierreno Keep in mind that Mexico had debts to pay and reneged on them and on existing treaties. Considering how many failed governments and civil wars that occurred in Mexico and led to the great suffering of many Mexican people by their own leaders and soldiers, those legionnaires of the French Intervention helped teach them what honor, bravery and courage really meant and probably contributed to the hope of a better government. If not for the French Intervention, civil wars would've been going on for another century with all the back and forth.

[@MN-vz8qm]

@@Halcon_Sierreno You infortunately will often hear that france wanted to colonize mexico, while Napoleon plan was to turn mexico into the catholic equivalent to the protestant USA, where italians, irish etc... immigrants would settle. Quite franckly it is a shame that his plan failed (mostly because the US at the end of their civil war were ready to intervene), as instead of that Mexico would remain the poor, unstable and underdevelopped southern neighbor for a long time.

[@Halcon_Sierreno]

@@MN-vz8qm Hah, please. Don't make me laugh. Us Mexicans don't need foreigners to come meddle in our affairs. We are proud descendants of the natives that have roamed these lands for millenia. That's why our national symbol is based on the founding of Tenochtitlan. No foreigner has ever come to Mexico to help us, they all want to serve themselves. France had no right to try to turn the land of my ancestors into their personal puppet to spread their influence. Us Mexicans will develop our own lands and turn Mexico into a superpower loyal to no one, specially not Europeans.

Nicely done video

[@theenemy2191]

I feel like king leonidas and his Spartans should be on this list

[@kevenalvarado8742]

That’s the first battle I thought of

[@NiceJay2544]

the last guy benkei ( standing death) reminded me of whitebeards final standing death in one piece at marineford

[@kshitijsingh1894]

Thanks infographic show for putting saragarhi and those 21 brave sikh soldiers which people dont know about...there is a movie on them called kesari

[@wesleymercer4536]

These are amazing, it really is incredible what you can do when you are fighting with conviction.

[@ThePhoenixAscendant]

It's hilarious that the stoners have taken over hit;er's birthday. EDIT: The story of Benkei NEEDS to be made into a movie... It would be a BLOCKBUSTER!

Bro why is the thumbnail so badass with the samurai or whatever

[@Krieger_Katze]

Would´ve been cool if you included the battle known as the "Attack of the dead men" which took place in WW1, the Russians really fought hard and suffered in that battle but managed to hold of the Germans long enough for reinforcements to arrive. Cool video tho

[@dark_disciple]

The attack of the dead men has its own video

I’d recommend people check out John Chapman’s Medal of Honor story. It’s incredible

Was that the one that was filmed?

Great video

All the LAST STANDS were great in their own ways , but i think its impossible to beat the 21 Sikhs vs 10000 Afghans .

[@infinityrecords9057]

The Sikhs didn't beat them all, they just took a last stand to take down as many as they could but all 10000

[@jaredjosephsongheng372]

The Battle of Saragarhi was a Good Runner up to the Battle of Thermopylae

[@ShashanklaShinkawa]

Have you heard about Battle of Chamkaur? It happened in 1704 where 40 Sikhs took on an army of 1 million

[@AFGW4365]

Benkei is a real one! cheers to that man

[@arthagarwal1903]

The infographic show should have realized by now that if they talk about atrocities of islamic rulers on India for almost 10 centuries, then many people will get educated and the content will be AMAZING

[@alejandrogarza9064]

The last one is pure legendary, despite of what Benkei did to Samurais; that last stand is crazy enough to echo through all eternity

[@shuckmatt2947]

worth noting many of these are likely seriously embellished, Dian Wei being a prime example (after all the romance of the three kingdoms is itself not historical but is basically the dynasty warriors version of history before Dynasty Warriors stepped it up to an even more absurd level)

[@Damnitjim7]

Don't think the embellishments where the point of the stories

[@christopherg1288]

Is dynasty warriors a game

[@shuckmatt2947]

@@christopherg1288 yes. Quite literally it is the start of the 'what if it was just me vs a million enemy' genre

[@wofm-h2f]

2:33 its now actually known as the battle of Saragarhi
