Simo Häyhä | The Deadliest Sniper In Military History

Simo "Simuna" Häyhä was a Finnish sniper who earned the ominous nickname, "The White Death". He's credited as one of the most accurate snipers of all time with a reported 500+ kills under his belt while enlisted. Today we're learning more about the man behind the rifle.

Too many active fronts east, west and south at one time rather than concentrating supplies an man power on one front at a time, was Germany's fatal flaw.

Another famous Finnish joke: A Soviet army is marching through a Finnish forest when a general hears a voice from over a hill shout: "one Finnish soldier is better than 10 Soviet soldiers!" The general promptly send 10 soldiers to root out the voice, there is gunfire, and then silence. After a few minutes, the voice shouts defiantly: "One Finnish soldier is better than a hundred Soviet soldiers!!" The general sends a hundred men to remove the nuisance, there is a racket of gunfire, and then quiet. The voice crys out loudly once more: "One Finnish soldier is better than a thousand Soviet soldiers!!" Enraged, the general sends a thousand men charging over the hilltop to shut up that voice once and for all, an epic battle rages, and then quiet. After a few minutes, a gravely wounded Soviet crawls back over the hill and crys: "It's a trap! There are two Of them!!"

Couple of things (with my bad english). First, I havent never heard of the nickname taika- ampuja (magic shooter), so I claim that that is made up. For the enemy he was White Death, and for the fellow soldiers "Simuna" (coming from hes first name Simo). Second, he wasnt injured on the jaw by a soviet sniper, it was in counter attack when attacking against soviet lines, and he was shot just a couple of meters away. He got obviously injured very bad, and a funny thing actually was that he read about hes own death on a newspaper in military hospital. He wrote a letter to home that "stop the funeral, youre missing a body". My source is a book called Valkoinen Kuolema (white death), published in finland somewhere around 2002- 2006..

Häyhä having the nickname "White Death" first appeared in the Finnish Winter War literature of the late 1980s.[13] The cited source [13] is a candiate thesis from the University of Oulu in Finland.

MI Surkov klled 702, VS Kavachantiradze kulled 534 and IM Sidorenko killed 500. I think Surkov is the more deadlist sniper. All of them are soviets.
