This is a story about Polish defense of Wizna. Polish defenders had somewhere between 350 - 700 soldiers, 20 officers, 2 anti-tank guns, 6 light guns, 18 machine pistols, and 24 heavy machine guns. Germans had 42,000 soldiers (yes, this is the correct number of 0s), 350 tanks, 657 heavy cannons, and Luftwaffe support. Polish defenders lasted 3 days. So, Polish defenders were outnumbered 40:1. This battle is called "Polish Thermopylae."

This is the song that helped Poland regain its pride after decades of communist oppression and censorship.

[@Clouded_Reactions]

My heart breaks for Poland! Such a tragedy to see the extent of communist control, hiding your own history from you!

[@brigidtheirish]

@@Clouded_Reactions Same! Unfortunately, being Europe's punching bag is somewhat par for the course with Poland. At least for the last few centuries.

[@A_Name_]

France was supposed to be the best land army in the world at the start of WW2, they also had Belgian and British help and..... They lasted almost as long as Poland who fought alone and we're being attacked by not just Germany but Russia as well. Tragic but fucking inspiring they were able to hold on as long as they did.

[@Clouded_Reactions]

It's incredible, I can only imagine what else I missed out on learning from other countries smh

[@jacksmith-vs4ct]

The really sad part is it was really the French officers that ruined everything if they had been more competent they likely could have held out for far longer the French wanted to fight but they could never get a good plan going.

[@brigidtheirish]

The armies, the men on the ground, that is, were fine. The French and British leadership *sucked.* Not as bad as they sucked in WWI, but I also get the impression that a lot of the higher ranking officers pointedly ignored a lot of the lessons from WWI.

[@lucasrokitowski8707]

@@brigidtheirish - Same could be said about the Polish. The spirit was high, but the leadership failed.

[@brigidtheirish]

@@lucasrokitowski8707 And then they were screwed over by the counties that were supposed to be their allies. Poland got screwed by *everyone.*

till 1990 it was communistic shool, Soviets wanted to make Polish forget about their proud etc. :).

[@Clouded_Reactions]

So mind blowing, down with Communism!

[@pyrebird7567]

For a completely nuts story about the Polish Navy in WW2 (operating with and out of Britain) I recommend “I am a Pole” The Legend of Piorun by LazarPig, which from the stories I’ve heard pretty much embodies the attitude of the Poles after they were occupied

[@Clouded_Reactions]

I'll definitely look into it! Thanks!!

[@dariuszrutkowski420]

@@Clouded_Reactions The Battle the song is about is :German forces were over 40 times larger and had tank support and Poles in bunkersdefending the border. Not all the bunkers were finished before war broke out.

[@agnieszkazuk]

Thank you for your great reaction! Have you noticed 40:1 Sabaton History : number 001 (!) Nice, yeh? I've heard about this battle for the first time from this song. They just taught us about the beginning of wwII at Westerplatte, about the heroic resistence there and then about the September campaigne in the whole, without the details. Polish soldiers fought brave but surrender because of the lack of amunission and the fact Rus..ns attacked from the back and catch and killed over 20 000 Polish officers -about this we didn't learn in afterwar time, the truth was forbidden, To this day Rus..ns call Polish patriots - naz..ts and fas..ts as they can't stand our independance.This Sabaton song 40:1and Uprising were like something refreshing for the real patriots here in Poland, as we still have the legacy of this system in the government. It would be great to see your reaction on 40: 1 during the concert in Woodstock Poland 2012, and to see something unexpecting. Please do the double reaction with this 7 min vid: SABATON na scenie! Making of Woodstock 2012, odc.19/20 There is another unexpected thing here. You won't be disappointed!

[@Clouded_Reactions]

Oh wow, is this what you bad trouble posting? Amazing how these governments still have a hold on other countries :/

@@Clouded_Reactions Yes, I had to delete the part I wrote about the facts (WHO, WHY) about the tenth of April twenty ten :-(

@@agnieszkazuk it's a little unsettling how KZbin blocks certain language or rather events that occured in history. Thank you for re-writing and editing time and time again to let me know what really went down! I appreciate you!!

Nice I live for sabaton reactions. Gladly keep it up along with the history videos with them. :)

[@Clouded_Reactions]

Thanks brother!

[@dorlonelliott9368]

The Germans reorganized their Panzer Divisions as a result. Went from 6:2 Battalion ratio of PZ to Infantry to a 4:4 ratio for the invasion of France.

[@Clouded_Reactions]

Such a large aggressive army getting humbled by true soldiers!

[@H.J97]

when it comes to reaction videos for sabaton songs, afaik they don't copyright strike any of them. the only "official" videos reactions that's been getting a strike was the live from waken but then it was from the festival and not the band or the record company

[@Clouded_Reactions]

They copyright claim my videos but no strikes so I'm not worried :)

[@Jannie9004]

I really enjoy your reactions to Sabaton! Love that you have both music and history in the same video. You may notice that the "older" Sabaton videos (before 2012) have different bandmembers (Joakim and Pär have been there from the start) so don´t be to confused. I saw them live on april 25th in Sweden, best evening in a very long time so if you get a chanse to see them live I would highly recommend it, think they start their tour in north america in september. 😁

[@Clouded_Reactions]

I'm loving their lessons through such an art! And September? My birthday is in October, looks like I might celebrate early :)

[@Jannie9004]

​@@Clouded_Reactions Before Sabaton I really disliked history, it was always taught in such a boring way in school that you would forgett about it the second you walked out of the classroom 😅 Sabaton have made me really like history and sparked a interest to learn more. Think an early celebration is a really good idea!

[@sonsofliberty3154]

You said on the Brad Paisley song that you never cried to a song before... maybe try doing a "try not to cry" challenge for No Bullets Fly by Sabaton?

[@Clouded_Reactions]

I think I'd lose that challenge haha cheers!

[@jonashansson2320]

@@Clouded_Reactions Important that it is the "Animated story video" for that one. It's about as emotional as it can get. :)

[@jacksmith-vs4ct]

I think Christmas truce might be even more so

[@H.J97]

as for the album I would recommend you react to both the english and swedish versions at the same time. the swedish versions are from the perspective of the swedish army and the english version is from a 3rd person perspective so the lyrics change some between the versions. for what order to do them in I would just go in the order of the album, they tend to be in a somewhat cronological order.

[@paweljasion5215]

40.000 German soldiers vs 1000 Polish soldiers m8

[@Clouded_Reactions]

Yeah I was looking way too much into it, cause Poland would have fallen 35:1 but since it was 40:1 then Sabaton was saying it HAD to be 40:1 lol

[@dariuszrutkowski420]

You need to listen to Aces in exile if you're reacting to Sabaton songs. Battle for Britain and the Polish 303 squadron and the foreign squadrons in RAF.

[@Clouded_Reactions]

I'll add it to the list :) thanks!

[@MAGNATEO]

Do Carolus Rex from start to finish it's the best way

[@melkor3496]

Yes I definitely agree. It starts from the beginning of the Swedish empire and goes to its end so it’s in the historical order. He should have reacted to the history vid for lion of the north tho. :(

[@Clouded_Reactions]

I watched it today, just have to edit!

[@lord4459]

You should try uprising and inmate 4859. More songs from polish history

[@MAGNATEO]

Ye Inmate 4859 amazing song

[@miafranlund6982]

Well if you do Uprising, you have to do it live from Woodstock, that is epic!

[@marinamucic908]

Inmate 4859 for me is the saddest Sabaton song ever, great song

[@Clouded_Reactions]

I'm not trying to cry on camera 😂 Thanks for the suggestions!

[@jonashansson2320]

@@marinamucic908 It's definately one of the saddest stories at least. A real WTF moment at the end there... And a bit odd, I actually think the Sabaton history is better than the music in that case.

Here is a one battle where Polish army use cavalry against German army but not against tanks. Polish cavalry charge on German infantry but Italian press see only hundreds of dead soldiers and horses near German tanks but tanks arrived after battle. Cavalry attack was stopped by armoured cars which go to support retreating infantry.

[@Clouded_Reactions]

I loved this song! Did sabaton do any other songs regarding Polish history?

[@milanradimecky6001]

@@Clouded_Reactions you have songs about Poland like Winged Hussars (Second battle of Vienna 1683 with Polish army involved), Glorious land (Soviet-Polish war 1917-1922 I think), 40:1 (this about battle of Wizna), Uprising (Warsaw uprising 1944), Aces in exile (Not only about Polish pilots during battle of Britain 1940) and Inmate 4859 (Polish hero Witold Pilecki) I think that only Glorious land don't have History video yet

I hear the Swedish versions are beyond epic, I'll definitely look into their versions when I can!

@@Clouded_Reactions They are. Okay there is a channel called Rayce of history you might wanna do the reactions to the Swedish songs the way he does them if you check one of his reactions out on the Swedish album on a song you have already heard. You will notice he reacts to both versions and does the history videos separately. You don’t have to do exactly like him but you might wanna think on doing both versions in the same video. He always does a video with translation in English for the Swedish versions.

@@melkor3496 The history videos are a little long to be coupling them with the music videos/lyric videos. Maybe doing the history videos separately will be easier, thanks for that! I should have thought of that before :) cheers!

Ok, lemme explain you this way: At the very beginning there were 350 Polish soldiers fighting against 41.000+ Germans. Finally it was like ~900 Poles. Do some math and count the proportions ; ]

Remarkable odds, incredible! I need to see more videos about such Polish events :D

[@EyeScreamPL]

​@@Clouded_ReactionsIf you'd like to see more, check out these topics: 1. "Bitwa Warszawska 1920" (also known as "Cud nad Wisłą 1920") 2. ORP "Ślązak" - Polish battleship that took part in the Dieppe Raid (August 19, 1942). Disobeying Allied command orders to stay away from the shore, he swam to the shore to save the lives of 85 Canadian soldiers who were under heavy fire. It should be added that the ship itself was significantly damaged. 3. 303 Squadron in Battle of Britain (you just MUST to watch British documentary "Bloody foreigners. Untold Battle of Britain" - available on YT). 4. Polish winged hussars (including Battle of Vienna) These are only a few of many , many examples of bravery and skills of Polish soldiers! :)

[@TheJonasbz]

How hard can it be? The Germans did winn, but they where 40 to 1, if they where less they wouldent have made it so if you gonna invade Poland you better be like 40 to 1 or Poland will defeat you See the original live video instead this one they give you the whole picture

[@Clouded_Reactions]

I tend to overthink videos by Sabaton, they tend to mean exactly what they say but 40:1 they (Poland) would have lost even at 35:1 meaning I thought they were trying to say something different. But them (Sabaton) saying 40:1 was just a play on the pride of Poland and how it took 40:1 odds to defeat them
