Star Wars: 10 Stormtrooper Secrets You Didn't Know

[@jasonjones7461]

I remember seeing something about how a lot of the storm troopers didnt actually die when shot from low and medium yield blaster fire. It was more like getting shot while wearing a kevlar vest. They are stunned, possibly even severely injured but their innards werent fried like they would've normally been without armor.

[@RictusHolloweye]

It explains two moments from the original movie. 1: When a trooper is moved to the side of the corridor of the Tantive IV his head doesn't drop to the floor when released. Instead he lowers his head gently, clearly still alive. 2: When Luke shoots a trooper from across a chasm in the Death Star the trooper falls and does a Wilhelm scream. Again, clearly still alive.

yea but most of those who survive eventually get blown up to oblivion 😂

[@beaucarroll17]

2:35 the cylinder on the back of troopers, ORIGINALY because they were ment to wield sabers and this was the storage

[@kevint1911]

Favorite stormtrooper moment….. “These aren’t the droids we’re looking for.”

[@StocktonSmurf]

THIS is a good star wars list, keep with this crew

[@Getpojke]

The term Stormtrooper didn't originate in WWII, it started in the latter period of WWI in the German Army. Sturmtruppen or Stoßtruppen means Shock/shove troops. Also the cylinder on the back of the Star Wars troopers is based on the distinctive cylindrical case that WWII German troops wore on the small of their backs to house their gas masks when not in use.

[@helikos1]

I was looking for this comment as soon as they said that. The clowns even show footage that is clearly WWI trench warfare and uniforms.

[@fedupwiththetimes6413]

Exactly! There were NO Nazis when the term stormtrooper was coined.

[@MA_AIRSOFT]

It’s good to know some people here shared my disappointment when I watched that part of the video 😂

[@devilrac0r]

thanks was already typing to rectify this nonsense

[@debelmeis2311]

The scout troopers first appearance is my favorite they were so cool

[@Leggo_Waffle]

Favorite Trooper moment is when Han is chasing them and confident. And then he turns the corner and starts screaming as there are hundreds of troopers.

[@pr0cr4st1na7or]

Personal favorite stormtrooper moment(s): tied between the Hand of Justice and the backstory of the trooper killed by Leia right before her capture.

[@darrenblair7230]

I like in the bad batch when they say the Stormtroopers replacing the clones is about fostering loyalty instead of having an occupying force they would have troopers defend the planets themselves and would be less like an occupying force

[@Growly.]

Favourite Stormtrooper moment(s) When they die. For the rebellion!

[@my4sons88]

Finally someone is talking about this

[@thesmanbrowne4561]

When talking about Nazis , it’s probably a good idea to not show German soldiers from WW1 . Who definitely Weren’t Nazis,

[@KaijuBiologist]

In the Imperial Handbook, they have a page with info on Stormtrooper weaponry. There is a note in the margin from Han Solo stating that, in truth, most Stormtroopers are good shots, but the blasters they are issued are inherently inaccurate, and thats why they miss.

[@CptShiba]

What in the bot…?

[@danieldonovan7166]

Correction... The term Storm Trooper came from the Kaiser's Army WW1 and not WW2

[@Nagtloper431]

My favourite Stormtrooper moments are all in AFK's "For the Empire".

[@CapybaraaaaStudios]

Head bonk for sure

[@captaincolata9356]

They had stormtroopers in WW1 too. My fav stormtrooper is Wanten.

[@philly83]

The head bonk is my favorite

[@manny9789]

It would be really fun to be a Stormtrooper!

[@Leojoo4]

I used to think the stormtrooper helmets in the original trilogy looked like grasshoppers!

[@matthewjay660]

#11.) The Ewoks ate stranded Stormies after Endor.

[@blackc1479]

"Were capable of absorbing the usual blast"....unless fired by a named character. Or some unnamed characters. Or a teddy bear with a stick. Though i will give the one stormie that chirrut got ahold of. He took several before checking out.

[@brettcarter5954]

A new hope open when they are winning for the only time

[@sheilaolfieway1885]

1:58 in original concept art the cylinder was a lightsaber...

[@trenchboi5842]

8:01 SERIOUS Misinformation here. The stormtrooper name outside of the canon was based on the stormtroopers of the WW1 German Empire.

[@mghc7]

Correction back canisters were originally going to be lightsaber holster

[@YugoCg]

Where to buy real undersuit for stormtrooper? Is it tight or in loose mode?

[@trevormoorctaft3906]

Nope. Not the head bump. The Wilhelm scream one is the best!

[@motimusprime176]

9:18 “THEY were designed…” 🙂

[@Davidgoldenswan]

Now you have said it of course we will say head bonk😅I'm sure I have seen a head bonk 😂 somewhere else 😂😂😂😂

[@TheCastellan]

11:45 So, the NSA runs the troopers....

[@Wonk0024]

I honestly thought that the cylinder on their backs was supposed to carry a light saber didn’t know it was a explosive

[@motimusprime176]

10:25 “THEIR armour” 😊

[@ZenosaurusRex]

Storm Troopers (Sturmabteilung) were NOT Nazi soldiers in WW2. They were the Party's street fighting thugs before Hitler became Chancellor. After that, because Hitler considered them to be a threat, their leaders were executed and they rest were reduced to sideline duties or absorbed into the SS. The name originally applied to specialized assault troops in WW1.

[@carter358]

@5:00 or ...... Vader did a Jedi mind trick on all of the Stormtroopers to make them miss because he wanted the rebels to escape so they could be tracked to the Rebel Base.

[@KaijuBiologist]

Or he just ordered them to miss.

[@Digidragon55]

The Stormtoopers represents skeletons?! Then what do the Clones resemble?

[@qualityserviceexperts9996]

The Skywalker Sogger!

[@debelmeis2311]

Crimson troopers are a reskinned version of magma troppers

[@jasonthornton-saunby5814]

The German stormtroopers depicted in your video are WW1 German (non-Nazi) stormtroopers, the OG stormtroopers that the Nazis adopted for their troops in the ‘30s.

[@CLChaos]

sorry to correct you the original storm troopers were not Nazis they were in fact Canadians. German soldiers called Canadian troops "Sturmtruppen" (storm troopers) during World War I after the Battle of the Somme and the Battle of Vimy Ridge.

[@wickideazy]

In the old, pre-Disney canon, women weren't stormtroopers because the Empire itself was human-centric and sexist. Females and aliens who served the Empire were shunted into what was called the "NhM" career track - "Non huMan." This prejudice against women and non-humans was written in to strengthen the resemblance between the Empire and the Third Reich. In the old canon, this helped to make characters like Thrawn even more impressive - the Imperial machine wasn't accepting of him at all because he wasn't human, but through his tactical brilliance and devotion to the Empire he overcame those prejudices and rose to the highest rank possible.

[@hungnguyenquang7247]

Stormtrooper not useless the og characters just have plot armor and mandalorian truly have a plot armor beskar

[@bulletprooftoaster-tt9od]

Things that WhatCulture Didn't Know: What the audience already knows.

[@nickrobertson9533]

The Canadian troops were the original storm troopers. It's kinda history.

[@AllenLinnenJr]

You're wrong there. Storm troopers have their origin in World War 1.

[@StuartistStudio1964]

E one one? I think you mean E-11 (E eleven).

[@debelmeis2311]

Thank you for never saying smash that like button lol

[@thebeatlesloveisallyouneed]

Uh! No! Stormtroopers didn't originate with the Nazis! The Germans had Stormtroopers in World war 1!

[@kaykaykay5572]

[@Canrugger]

The all male stormtrooper idea was because of sexist casting

[@RictusHolloweye]

Also because it's harder to convince women to be extras when their face won't be shown in the film. It was a problem with the prequels where female extras would stop showing up to filming after realising they had to wear a mask or prosthetics.

[@minabee369]

It was because in prior to the 21st century, in most militaries men alone fought on the front lines. Not sexism, but thousands of years of civilization.

[@johnbyrne3402]

Disney made female stormtroopers
