[@TrueVikings]

Thanks for watching. Cheers brother.

[@gjedda63]

Hilarious ending, looking forward to part 2 😅

[@TrueVikings]

Thank you 😂

[@DennisDaMenace4ever]

Great job still finding things in the middle of nowhere, you looked like a boiled lobster in the end 😁, must have felt like a sauna. Thanks for the video and good luck.✌🏼

[@TrueVikings]

Thanks for watching. It was a bit warm that day 😂

[@elizabethlittler4472]

That bang at the end frightened the living daylights out of me xx

[@TrueVikings]

Haha, sorry about that 😅

[@boonebarnes2334]

Joel! What beautiful country that is out there. It's hard to think what it must have been like that winter for these guys that were fighting. Did you ever get into any spots that you felt uneasy, like someone was watching you? I always pay a little more attention to those spots. Try it and see what I mean. Love your channel, man.

[@WheresTex]

I laughed so hard at the end (and replayed it several times). 😂

[@TrueVikings]

Haha, thanks. I had a fun time editing it. After a few beers in the forest you get some strange ideas 😂

An important place for my family. My grandfather fought on Road of Raate, preventing the Soviets from getting to his home, which was located nearby.

[@TrueVikings]

Damn. Respect for him. Important battle and well fought. This Sunday there will be another video from here.

@@TrueVikings When I was a kid, we visited Suomussalmi every year. There was many old men who talked about the battles and how it felt to know that if they lose the battle, the first thing to lose was their own homes and everything they had built with hard work. Hard to imagine these days.

Tsekkasitko ollenkaan ihan tuosta rannasta ? Jos se on ollut silloin sodan aikaan jo olemassa, niin sehän olisi ollut yksi potentiaalinen kohde ? Sotilaat uinu siinä ? Taskuista tippunut jotain ? Jne 🤔

[@TrueVikings]

En tuota tarkistanut. Ehkä joku päivä vielä takaisin 😅

[@horatioyachapovich6919]

Joel, that machine screw was from a rifle. Keep on people.

[@TrueVikings]

Oh, nice! Did not know that.

[@Artby_Katina]

Great video, the explosion scared me, made me jump. 😂

[@TrueVikings]

Haha, after a few beers in the forest the ideas start to run wild.

[@Artby_Katina]

@@TrueVikings Looks like fun

[@BulletsandButtons]

Being on the ridge was a mistake. They would have been on the reverse slope where they were both hidden and protected. Go back. Try again.

[@TrueVikings]

Will definitely go back there someday. But found some good stuff next day 👍

[@jerrydineen2827]

I pray that the Finnish soldiers aren't the only soldiers to defeat Russia and pootin!!

[@TrueVikings]

Hope so too 👍
