Tanegashima's "divine wind" is a reference to Japanese history. Short version : the Mongols tried invading twice, and twice got rekt by typhoons. The Japanese basically saw this as God's intervention, and called it "divine wind", or in Japanese, "kamikaze".

Fun fact: In act 4, Shadow Moses was bigger and originally you were supposed to explore ALL areas of the island. This didn't happened because of the limitations of memory. There's 2 unused areas from 2007 version of the game, that was revealed on integral podcast talking some secrets about act 4. The first one is the frozen lake, it's located nearby of the beginning and the route was really different compared to the final product, so instead of you heading west to get in the heliport, originally you had to head north, pass through the lake and then you end up getting in the canyon. The lake has an Gecko patrolling there, you can shoot on the lake to break the ice and make him sink in the lake. This lake has been removed because it should remove the fans expectation from seeing the heliport again and another reason is for nostalgic feeling. The second one is a secret base bellow the nuclear warhead storage building, you had to use the elevator to get in this area, there's not much details about this secret base, in my theory this area should exactly the same map from Metal Gear Ac!d 2 link battle (online) map. This area has been removed just for nostalgic feeling. Back the 2007 version of the game, you could have access to B1 commander's room and you could get 1000 of DP upon get in there (THIS IS STILL IN THE FINAL PRODUCT) and there's a flashback of Psycho Mantis (ALSO STILL IN THE FINAL PRODUCT) he says "I saw you there... you have a large place in her heart. And getting bigger... but I do not know if your futures lie together." This flashback appears when you enter on the corridor, nearby where Snake fought with Psycho Mantis (it's only accessible by hacking and the B1 commander's room has been removed and doesn't have any textures of the area only the elevator collision is still there all that remains is these flashbacks for DP and there's a video on YT showing this). There's 2 unused codec calls conversations of Snake and Otacon talking about the ladies room and the bookcase placed at the same place where the entrance to the cave was (there's a video on YT showing their conversation). 36:13 You can pass through it by hacking but this doesn't lead to anywhere, I believe that tunnel should leads to the snowfield (there's a video of a guy on YT exploring out of bounds in Shadow Moses).

The battle shortly resumes after.

I cant think of any other video game that has this many easter eggs and secrets. It truely shows how much love the devs had for this series. When I was growing up I had the official MGS2 and 3 guide books. At the back of each book were DOZENS of pages listing each easter egg. I think it's these little "touches" to the MGS series that elevates it above most other games. ALSO: Excellent editing in this vid.

In Otocon’s codec about snake taking down a tank by himself, he says he talked to a soldier who swore no single man could take down a tank.

Goes to show the right man in the right place can make all the difference

11:22 It's possible that one of the "under construction" games was actually Metal Gear Rising The first version of Metal Gear Rising was shown off in I believe 2009 under the title "Metal Gear Solid: Rising" and initially was written (though not directed) by Kojima before he left the game and it used heavy MGS4 assets. It'd have probably begun development towards the ends of MGS4s development most likely. I don't even think Kojima imagined MGS5 would be a thing back in 2008.

I'm sure you already know this but before you enter the rebel cave in Chapter 1, if you are spotted by the lone guard, he'll cautiously approach you with his weapon pointed at you, do not move and you can offer him food and he'll let you pass. Also if you offer the other rebels food youll gain their trust and make it through the cave without the use of a disguise or stealth.

Btw, idk if you know about this but there’s a secret move Snake can do that the game doesn’t tell you about it (or at least I think the game doesn’t tell you about it), two moves actually. Act 1 for example, right before the B&B Corp cutscene. There’s a small gap, right on top of a militia spawn point. You can roll and spam triangle to not fall and get pass the gap. And talking about spamming triangle, when a PMC or Frog hits you and Snake falls down, right when Snake is falling, spam the triangle and Snake will immediately get up in less than a sec. Kind of a bad english but I tried my best to explain myself. Hope you can read it, maybe try it or comment if you already knew about this.
