Another Superb video filled with history and pipe smoking. I love history. Growing up I wanted to be a history teacher or professor but life takes us through many twist and turns. One day I will travel to your part of the world to see the beauty it holds. I know it takes you time and money to make these adventures but know that there is a lot of us out here that appreciate and love each and every video you post. Great job

[@The-man-with-the-many-pipes]

👏👍

[@80brax04]

Looks alot like my land in Northern Louisiana.Its a great spot for hunting whitetail deer, turkeys, squirrels and pretty much anything else but luckily we've put a big dent in the ferrel hog problem we had. Been enjoying your videos while stuck inside from the weather.

[@peterpiper7094]

I had a feeling when you put your tin of tobacco on the monument you would leave it there :) super video

[@ILOVEMFEO]

if tobacco blenders were awarded michelin stars like chefs, hans (hu tobacco) should probably have 2 stars in his pocket! adore hu tobs, they are amazing. great video greetings from amman to bremen!!

[@rickhauser9698]

Absolutely fantastic story

[@razvandragos5215]

I don’t know if you remember me but I commented way back on a video of yours asking about meerschaum and how you know if it’s block. Since I have bought a pretty big bearded man block meer made in turkey CAO, and have been smoking it every other day, it’s coloring a nice yellow as I smoke lots of burley and Virginias. Now I have bought a very nice made in turkey block meer church warden pipe! You have introduced me to the meerschaum world, and have not smoked my briars once since. I watch your videos every day even if I’ve already seen them all more than once, I watch them while I eat on my break and when I got time! Thank you for posting the great content my friend. Hope you read this in good health with some good blends in your pipe. Hope to hear from you soon, my friend.

[@matthewplatt1599]

Fantastic video. While Smoking my meerschaum I stumbled upon this video and gotta say, of the thousands of pipe smoker videos I have watched this one is one of my all time favorites. thats a very nice meerschaum you've got and smoking that pipe in such a beautiful forest place really brings about the beauty of this hobby. Well done sir !

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Thank you so much for that! Really appreciated! Take care! Hope, you're well! Mark

[@Jackman1006]

Always enjoy your stories Mark. And You definitely sold me on this tobacco after you came back for your tin 😅 Fantastic! Ryan

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Thank you so much for that, my friend! Much appreciated! Take care and be well! Mark

[@brianknight5602]

I recently discovered HU's lines of tobacco blends, and am currently smoking my way through a tin of Louisiana Broken. I must say that I am really enjoying it. I definitely plan on trying some of their other blends. Always a pleasure to see you here. Cheers!

[@zagarne4966]

you can´t go wrong with HU tobacco, directors cut, mahkuwa, old fredder - these are mine top 3

[@PeacePipeMan]

I was scared Mark from the first sentence. Thanks for taking us on that wonderful journey through the woods to the spot the great Wolf was killed. Glade to hear that you didn’t loose any teeth or the beautiful meerschaum.... boy, you had to be really clinching hard when you were cutting that tree branch. Lol. Cheers, Mark.

[@JuanGonzalez-gw5uo]

Awesome tobacco review great looking pipe and interesting history. Wish we had HU tobaccos here in the states.

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Thanks for taking the time, my friend! Yeah...just order them online...shipping isn't much...never heard of any problems so far... Take care! Be well! Mark

[@flyfishingpiper4976]

Another amazing video! I truly thank you so much for your time and knowledge!

[@Pfeifenraucher_der_Insel]

Mark, you are a great narrator of our history. Maybe it is a good idea to write the "real story" of this rare case from Lower Saxony. I have´nt heard anything about this exciting case, even though I'm from Lower Saxony. Thank you for talk about this friend. I am a big friend of history and have a big library with many exciting works. The HU LB is a very good tobacco like most other tobaccos from HU. I like it too. Sunny greaeings from our island. Michael.

[@stevieb5487]

I love how you always make interesting, knowledgeable, informative videos, that often include other topics than tobacco alone. There are quite a few, excluding names, who churn videos out at an omnipotent rate, thusly, becoming ponderous and insipid; perpetual 'box opening' videos; even if their latest YABO contains only one pipe cleaner ;) But yours are always educational, well thought and composed, with a splash of good wit! Bravo, my friend; many 'presenters' could learn from you :) Steve

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Thank you so much for that, my friend! Really appreciated by heart! Take care! Hope, you're well! Mark

[@SmokinBriar]

Well....That was an interesting story and a great meershaum pipe. It was kinda funny watching you wandering through those woods in a jacket and tie lol. I did notice you had your Buck 110 knife along just in case any wolf tried to come after you! Be safe in your travels.....and see you again soon....I hope🐶😃

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Mike, my friend! Good, to have you here...and many thanks for good words! Yeah...that Buck is a gift from Kent...I love it...and always have it on me...I followed Woodsman's advise, how to open it one handed...works fine... Take care, my friend! Hope, you are well! Mark

[@redgoat3khk45t5]

That was a great story. It seems as if it could be a modern Grimm Brothers tale. Danke schön.

[@TheDgrinch69]

Mark, I always look forward to your videos. Always interesting and I usually learn something new! Great videos, please keep them coming! Hope you're doing well. SAL.

[@djklose1]

I appreciate the various locations you take us to. I also like to drive to some far off place to take in some scenery and enjoy a good smoke. The stories and infomation behind these locations make for some interesting videos. Thank you!

[@seabhac1000]

Awesome twist to the story! Great ingenuity on the part of those villagers.

[@ArminEyer]

Hi Mark. What a great video and a wonderful story! Thank you for 40 interesting minutes with your great looking Meerschaum. I am not a huge Perique-Fan, thus I smoke only the English forward tobaccos from HU, but they are hard to get here in Switzerland. In two weeks I will spend some days in Ahlen NRW, where my girlfriend comes from and than I will order some of the newer HU tobaccos. Have a good time with your pipes and enjoy the tobaccos and I really looking forward seeing you here on youtube. Cheers from Zurich, Armin

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Hello Armin! Hope, you're well, my friend! Good, to have you here...gives me an opportunity, to as you something... :-) Does the Tabaklädeli continue to run American tobaccos, now...after MClelland left the market? Perhaps, they gonna go with C&D? Take care! Be well! Mark

[@ArminEyer]

Hi Mark. Sorry for the delay. Unfortunately, I have no idea what Mr. Wagner will do regarding the replacement of McClelland tobaccos. He only said that he has some ideas, that‘s it. If I am there the next time, I will ask him and let you know. Regarding C&D, there is Roman Peter at Affoltern am Albis where you can buy these tobaccos. Thus, I don‘t think that the Tabaklädeli will gonna go with C&D, but maybe I am wrong. Have a good time and cheers, Armin

[@mikeandmona6584]

That’s a really nice pipe

[@pipesmokingjourney6452]

I totally agree Louisiana Broken is a really good Tobacco. I would have gone back for it too! Had my first bowl of it this evening and I was impressed...

[@AndrewCirigliano]

Great video Mark and excellent story. Thanks for the introduction to HU Tobacco as I had not heard of that before and what a great story and piece of history with some nice video editing. You are right as well that the truth is always much less exciting than what we choose to believe. Happy smokes and take care.

[@dougowen9873]

Hey Mark: that story has to be right up there with the Ascanian Castle story as one of your best, very interesting the possible connection between the new currency issuance and the mysteriously large numbers of animals slain by just one wolf. As I have mentioned to you before, the bookstore and library shelves over here are heavily weighted to German history from about 1900 to 1945 but there are so many fascinating stories such as the Strangler of Lichtenmoore and many of the stories of centuries past that go unnoticed, a pity so thanks for cranking these tales out . They are greatly appreciated You know the wolf is a protected species in the U.S. as well but exactly the same controversy exists between the ranchers and the city folks concerning the release of wolves into the wilds of states like Montana and Idaho where there have been incidents of wolves raiding ranch areas for fresh meat. I guess these issues permeate all cultures and nationalities, only the language changes. By the way, speaking of HU tobaccos, they are some of the best quality blends I have smoked. Keep puffin.

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Hey, Doug! Thank you so much for that! Really appreciated! And...yeah...guess that's the old story...the closer you look, the more yo gonna find out, that most problems are the same...no matter where... Take care! We'll talk soon! Mark

[@portlandpipesmoker8497]

Hello Mark...another great video, and interesting story about the wolf. It seems a bit suspicious to me as well, ....as there would be evidence of the animals being eaten -- since wolves don't normally kill for sport but for food. As for the tobacco,... Louisiana Broken..., I have had a sample bowl last year from Wolfgang but don't remember it much, ...same with Nashville County. I meant to get back to you on Voxer about that before you sent off the pipe, but time got away from me, ....sorry for that. Perhaps I will try it again at some point, maybe even get a tin of each as I've heard so many good things regarding these tobaccos. Take care my friend, and I will get back to soon... Corey

[@RichardSmith-vs7qg]

Hi there Mark, thanks for another intrepid production, you really have been putting yourself in harms way recently. I thought you were lucky to survive the nudist lake. Stay safe and well. Richard.

[@rong4727]

Hi Mark great story loved it, but in all the years I've spent in the woods and come across wolfs never saw one with a knife. Thanks Ron.

[@Elkins82ify]

Thoroughly enjoy your videos, sir! I can’t find Dragon Flake here in the U.S.

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Thanks a lot for taking the time! And..well...if you wanna give it shot...you can give Ronny a mail...he does international shipping...and price for shipping is not much here... Take care! Be well! Mark

[@kieranhurley3027]

A great story Mark, thoroughly enjoyed all of it. It's always handy to have someone to blame. Good tobacco ! Good it wasn't your teeth that time. Would you believe I dropped my meerchaum three times, not a bother on it ! I'd love a video on the sanctuary some day. Stay well my good man and thank you. Kieran

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Thank you so much for that, my friend! Take care! Hope, you're well! Mark

[@TokingTommy]

Good to see you Mark and another great story and beautiful setting. I love Louisiana Broken, easily my favourite of Hans’ blends. Take care my friend, Tommy

[@lapipesmoker3751]

Thanks, Mark, for the suggestion of the HU brand; I've never tried them....You have very strong teeth, apparently...a good demonstration of the strength of meerschaum pipes! An excellent German proverb comes to mind: "Angst macht den Wolf größer als er ist". Good detective work, Mark. This is what makes history so enjoyable.The wolf was killed by history. Coming back for the tobacco is the best proof of its quality.....LOL.

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Thank you so much for that, my friend! As always...so much appreciated! Take care! Hope, you're well! Mark PS: ..btw...is Mrs Kramers still running the shop? If so...give her my best...just smoking some Father Dempsey's... :-)

[@lapipesmoker3751]

Sadly, no. Last December, Kramers closed for good. She was a wonderful woman and the shop is sorely missed. With the Ed's Smoke Shope in Santa Monica (Tinder Box) closed several years ago, and now this, we have been left with hookah shops and vaping bars. (I made a video shortly after they closed on the subject).

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

...ohh...I missed that...just watched... ...yeah...that's really sad! But thanks for the info! Take care! Mark

[@beernurse3439]

Another interesting story Mark! Thanks for sharing!...HU tobacco is one of my favourites!

[@sdcafunnyguru]

Thinking back, over the misty span of time, I seem to recall a legend that a wolf is immediately repelled by the smell of tobacco smoke - especially that of a pipe. I watched this video with fascination and great interest. At no point, did I detect the presence of a wolf anywhere in your vicinity. This leads me to conclude that the legend must be true! Cheers!

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Yeah...lol...you may be right! :-) Thanks for taking the time, my friend! And take care!

[@computergrant1]

Great video Mark, as always! I love your story telling about history! I'm watching it again. This time instead of work, I'm enjoying with a pipe and a glass of wine. Take care my friend!

[@peterhammond8457]

Great video Mark! Looks like a good hiking area. Love the sounds of the birds in the background.

[@luckystorage5956]

Great video, Mark! Great story too. I've enjoyed this pretty well with my Peterson and Royal Pipe Club Honey Plug. You channel is best of hole youtube! Best regard's, Kirill, Yaroslavl

Thanks for the facinating Story Mark ,and thank you for bringing up to our knowledge this 'Fachmann'for pipe repairs, they becoming very rare breed in today's word' have a great and warm week ahead, Beste Grüsse aus Finnland, Paul

[@cenoviopereira8603]

Dude that pipe is sick as hell

[@DaPfeife]

As a french guy it kinda reminded me of the beast of Gévaudan. They never really catched the culprit...they said it was a wolf and one man shot him but it is subject to discussions as apparently the wolf just stood in front of the hunter and waited to be shot in a certain way as if he knew who was in front of him (his master). Interesting as always and I'm almost 4 years late but hey, better later than never!

[@nophuijts9948]

Great video and a good story. But also a nice Pelikan ;-) Fijne avond Nop

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

You got some sharp eyes, my friend!..LOL Thanks for that! And take care! Mark

[@kens7050]

Hi Mark. As always, a good review and talk. Too bad We cant get HU tobacco here in the states. My Ali Birinci pipe stem also chipped away. I had a new stem made at Boswell's Pipes in Pa. Be well. Ken

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Hey ken! Thanks for watching and kind and interesting comment! You can get HU in the states... Jansen in hamburg does international shipping for HU... if that hasn't changed... there is a link down the bucket at one of my HU videos... Take care my friend and be well! Mark

[@glaxgo1]

so I did it I saw this video thanks for this lesson have a good smoke see you

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Thanks for taking the time, my friend! We'll talk soon! Mark

[@jackflanagan4971]

Great entertainment + tobacco review! If you had not revealed that you are a historian by profession, I might have asked if you were in a German counterpart of MI 5 or the like. The story is interesting in that forests and wolves seem to go together. Even so, you wove an interesting tale especially since the accusation was made that the forest was inhabited by a "strangler" ... a term more likely assigned to a "higher" species e.g. humankind. Thanks for the venture & story. I enjoyed it! John

[@CPC-uz7cb]

Good story, I especially like that you included the bit at the end about going back for the tobacco.

[@Paulus_Von_Schneider]

Hi Mark - great story and analysis of every nuance as ever! There was some talk about reintroducing the wolf in the Scottish Highlands some years ago to keep the deer population down but nothing came of it. So no 21st Century wolf stories for us! I'm working my way through a tin of Louisiana Broken and Nashville County and very much enjoying them. Always good to see you. Best, Paul

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Hey Paul! Thank you so much for taking the time...and very interesting comment! Yeah...I think, there might be even fewer wolves, swimming across the channel, than using knifes, to skin sheep...lol On the other hand...one could imagine, a nobleman, bringing wolves or even tigers to the Highlands...for a unique hunting experience... :-) I heard, that there is a plate in Oxford University, that forbids, to bring dogs...and bears...for good reasons... :-) Take care! Hope, you are well! Mark

[@Paulus_Von_Schneider]

Yes, I think Oxford University still have the same admissions policy! Lol

[@peterfriedenspfeife9230]

Hi Mark, hillarious story! And great camera on the intro! Louisiana Broken is reallh a great blend, thank you for reviewing it. Best greetings and stay well, Peter

[@seawavepiper5161]

Mark what an amazing directed video!!! Loved the strangler story. I have tried more than 10 different HU tobaccos and none of them has disapointed me.

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Thank you so much for that, my friend! Yeah...it's (nearly the same for me...) Only exception so far was the 5yrs anniversary...but I stored that in the cellar...to "rewatch" it in 5 yrs... :-) Take care! Hope, you are well! Mark

[@Dunholmpiper]

Thanks for another excellent video, I very much enjoyed the story of the wolf, also the landscape reminded me of the area around Fallingbostel. All the best, Paul

[@lmazcraz]

You’ve got style and class. I love the videos, especially the historic content.

[@sirjames3771]

Mark - enjoy ? Loved it ! Yet another great video - thankyaverymuch !! I feared that you walked off and left the tobacco behind. If I can find it I shall give it a try - not an aromatic so it is in my league. Hope all is well and may God bless. Jim

[@cafeteropiper2811]

Hey Mark, great story! Another one in your series of risk taking videos: the crazy Paternoster ride, the break-neck bike ride to Ronny's place, hooligan chasing and now murderous wolf territory! I love them all! This one gets extra points for conspiracy theory! Be well. Dan.

[@Treca1984]

Great story and very nice colouring on the pipe. we still have wolves here in Manitoba and they still do get to the livestock albeit not with knives, they are certainly not skinning the livestock either haha. To top it off grizzly bears have now moved back into the province so they may have some competition.

[@Bennysoapco]

[@backwoodspiper1705]

Well Mark I did enjoy the story and your thoughs on it,I know there are many historical "stories" that are just that stories.The wolf controvercies are going on here in the States all the time as well. Many states have wolves and some states protect them and others allow a certain number to be hunted in order to help control their population. Thanks again for another great history lesson from your part of the world. Al

[@erikquest5856]

Thoroughly enjoyed your story and all your effort to travel to and find the actual setting and stone marker. Thrilling! I heard that the two German officers that brought the wolf pup back from Russia were eaten by the wolf in the course of its escape from captivity. Any truth to that?

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Thanks for taking the time...and most kind words! Well...never heard of that...and it would be well known, if that would have happened...even the story about the soldiers itself is more a myth than historical truth... Take care! Be well! Mark

[@themanofyorke6708]

Really interesting tale and great video! I like the alternative view on the story, pretty interesting that the story is taken as gospel in the curriculum. My home area in Cumbria, England is the site of our own Last Wolf Story though many areas lay claim to the honour. lol I was actually going to joke that you left ur tobacco before your final gag! have a good week Mark!

Thank you. A vet from us .

[@andreaskaschny]

Hi Mark, When I read the title of the video, I first thought it was about a serial killer, but it's just about a poor wolf. In my opinion, it`s a really funny story... but at the end, not for the wolf. During my schooldays there were also a few legends about our region told, especially about the "Goldberg". And as the name implies, there should be a lot of gold there. Nobody has found it yet. There is a Geocache at that pillar, the coordinates are N 52° 43.965 E 009° 28.743. I think, your position in the map is maybe wrong. Enjoy your pipe and have a nice day. See you next time. Andreas

[@RamSkirata]

i am really looking forward to your videos. please never stop making them :) Another thing... it would be cool if you could talk about your zippo lighter insert for a little while :)

[@computergrant1]

Ahhh ja, Bremen! Freue mich immer darauf, dich in deinen Videos zu sehen! Außerdem liebe ich Geschichte und alte Gebäude. Die Geschichten, die du erzählst, sind faszinierend! Schöne Pfeife und Tabak! Alles Gute, mein Freund. Bis zum nächsten Mal... Ich mag auch die "statischen" Änderungen in deinen Videos! Ich weiß nicht, welche Software du dafür benutzt.

[@dane6k6]

A sheep sheering knife wielding wolf...Yep I believe it. HAA! super video. Don't get lost in the woods their could be another wolf.

[@bluemoonriderlipa6880]

of the two legged kind.

I would have gone back for the tobacco too.

[@EricBryan]

Very interesting story and beautiful scenery. I am curious to try this tobacco...it sounds similar to Haunted Bookshop but perhaps with less perique.

[@matthewgeis122]

What a great story !!! works well with that pipe and the tobaco you chose. What would you have thought if the tobaco was gone when you came back for it.

[@pipesandbeans4948]

Great story and tobacco my friend, take care!

[@kimuni1635]

[@oldgoat8861]

Later in your story, you spoke of the reintroduction of the wolf in certain areas, and local populations coversation concerning this.. I live in New York State, ( just south of the border 10 miles) below Montreal. This area is known as the Great Adirondack Park, linking the Appalachian Mtn. Ridge north. The Park is millions of acres, and 100's of miles in diameter. They began introducing the wolf back into this area sometime ago(maybe15 yrs?? about), and a big controversy ensued with the public .........yes or no?....should the wolf be brought back?? It was brought back into the area and without problems. My Point is this....we are so many miles apart and yet basic human instinct prevails questioning the reintroduction and coexistence of a wild animal within their backyards. I am sure the local conversation and meetings resembled each other in dialog. Another Great Story from you !!!

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

Thank you so much for taking the time! And very interesting comment! So much appreciated, my friend! Take care! Be well! Mark

[@EunusRex]

Splendid job as always, Mark. Do you care to go a bit off-topic and make a video on your favourite Italian Kentucky cigars?

[@bremenpipesmoker6571]

...yeah...absolutely possible...just enjoyed another Garibaldi yesterday... Take care! Hope, you're well! Mark

[@EunusRex]

I humbly recommend Cimette Mastro Tornabuoni. This is what old-school, full-flavour Italian Kentucky is supposed to taste in a pipe. Ciao!

[@peterjaimez1619]

[@ssnoc]

Mark, do certain tobacco’s have more nicotine than others? I enjoy Latakia, but not sure of its nicotine content? Anyway, obviously a new pipe smoker here - great videos very enjoyable.

[@tormodbjerland3130]

The debate about wolf is hard and with the same front between urban and rural people in Norway to. I blame the Grimm brothers and Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf for some the bad reputation wolf’s have. The have not been any person taken by wolfs for over 200 years in Norway, but people is still afraid. I understand that the farmers that lost a lot of sheeps and the hunters that lost their hunting dogs don’t want any wolf’s around.
