As a Finn myself, I feel the need to point out a certain detail. I believe I've heard versions of the story where Simo got back up, shot and killed the Soviet who'd nailed him, before later collapsing himself. However, I don't find that in most accounts of that event. That little detail might be just rumors or a small piece of exaggeration from the Finnish. Although getting shot and surviving is indeed true.

One of my favorite things about him is he used open iron sights. You always hear tacticool guys ranting on about how optics are superior but some people with good vision just prefer irons. If you're comfortable, effective, confident, and proficient with a system and you have tons of successful experience with it then go ahead and stick with it when the time comes that you need it most

[@TheEvertw]

The arguments presented in the video in favour of iron sights are compelling. Scopes _do_ fog up, reveal locations through glint, limit peripheral vision and make for a bigger target.

[@RoyalMela]

@@TheEvertw Simo had never used a scope, and preferred to use his own hunting rifle. He knew the rifle well, he mastered it, never had mechanical issues, or loading malfunctions. So why take a worse rifle when you can use your trustworthy one? Also, using a scope limits your visibility to see around you. You are mainly focused to only what you can see through the scope, but with iron sights you have almost normal vision. You don't get caught to only one target but can easily scan what is going on elsewhere. So, old tricks are better than a bagful of new ones.

@@blaircolquhoun7780 @Blair Colquhoun Russia lost more men in war because Finns were more experienced in Finland's harsh conditions during Winter war. It was like the beginning of the Empire strikes back when Empire attacked Rebels on planet Hoth. Also it was like the Endor moon war against Empire too occasionally. But yeah, we know how bad Russians can be. In 1700's they made a genocide in Finland. They destroyed whole villages and stuff. And Russians are also good at Iying. They Iie and some peopIe beIieve them, even Americans. We Finns know what they're like 100%.

@@unikeko96 Sounds like Ukraine today. Russia seems to have forgotten the lessons of the Winter War.

The Soviets routinely bombarded areas where Simo might be out of paranoia. Finns routinely exploited this to great effect.

It is so interesting when you have to calculate how the body will drop to not give away your spot even how he exhales.... not even talking about staying still in your place for hourse !

This guy was a trooper in every way possible. He even got shot in the face and survived, and outlived the Soviet Union, the enemy Finland faced during the Winter War and the Continuation War.

The only thing that slightly annoys me in this is that the soviets are using m1 garands, rather than an svt-38 or a mosin nagant rifle/carbine

They’re using Thompsons and other American ww2 weapons TODAY in Ukraine. We gave them a lot during “lend lease”. I can see it

It’s not always good to eat raw snow in cold environments cause it’s an easier way to give you hypothermia but this guy obviously knew what he was doing
