Evolution Of British Battle Tanks In WW1 I THE GREAT WAR Special

[@tombuckley9440]

I love david willey, such well spoken and a really clear and interesting speaker. Wooooo

[@chadsknnr]

I've noticed that Indy always looks uncomfortable around him.

[@PobortzaPl]

Radiyas13 For me it's more a look of dutiful student while around his favourite teacher.

[@SteamboatWilley]

no relation

[@martentrudeau6948]

@@chadsknnr Indy knows that David knows all.

[@DotepenecPL]

Gotta love a man who refers to tanks as "this fellow here". : )

[@hughhemington9559]

It's a great museum. They've got some pretty rare tanks exhibits and when I was there, you could ride a tracked vehicle and climb inside a tank with a tour from a veteran. Short train ride from London. Really worth the time.

[@gallendugall8913]

No one can say that Indy has a tankless job.

[@MrCordycep]

You're fired!

[@PobortzaPl]

My friend served as soldier in artillery, but he got fired. Ba dum tsss

[@SirSaladhead]

Yeah he's really enarmoured with his job.

[@AcutePanic41]

Tanks for the joke.

[@inisipisTV]

The first salvo on the pun.:D

[@Ohne_Silikone]

I also worked at a museum, giving explanations/expositions. I do recognise this gentleman’s enthusiasm very much. For people in our job explaining and presenting isn’t the hard thing, it is noticing to what amount of detail and when to stop.

[@agwilt]

I really love these longer, in-depth videos. For some reason I find they stick in my head a lot better than the weekly episodes too.

[@TheGreatWar]

+Andreas Gwilt well, if we would produce three of them a week (which we can't), probably the rare 30 minutes would stick with you

[@ProvidenceNL]

+Andreas Gwilt easy solution, just watch all of them again!

[@EastyyBlogspot]

Tanks for this vid

[@lok3kobold]

*Sigh* I want to hate you. But i love you

[@erikthomsen4768]

"Tanks for watching."

[@akrybion]

I really like the speaker here. He's so beautifully British!

[@neilwilson5785]

Just to say, when I was a kid in the 1970's, I couldn't get hold of proper diagrams for these tanks, or internal photos, even. I had to rely on a small town library. This type of video is a GREAT thing about the Internet. Fake news, not so much.

[@iftiflo2039]

That Mark1 tank is one of the last not the last vehilcle that seen WW1,it's an honor for me to see this tank even from here.

[@jjrj8568]

Churchill, always Churchill, the most important man of 1900-1960 British History

[@nathangillispie51]

Proud patron of the tank museum!

[@Flakfire]

Was this before or after the espressos?

[@TheGreatWar]

after

[@mikoajstanaszek7979]

@@TheGreatWar why theres no Mark 2 and 3 because they are in musem and Mark 9

[@GronGrinder]

This is why I love World War 1 tanks, they had crazy ideas.

[@mojavedesert8723]

Been to the tank museum recently, definitely worth the trip. Place is amazing

[@DoraFauszt]

Oh wow, great job from the curator! Love how he explains everything up until the tiniest detail! And with such enthusiasm!

[@TheGreatWar]

+Dóra Fauszt yeah, we could listen to him all day

[@jacksharpe2148]

So cool seeing the development of the tank. Especially seeing the models that didn't get to the battlefield. Some soldiers were scared by the Mark 1 - imagine facing the Mark 9 with 30 guys coming out of it. Also fun fact - I want to university in Lincoln, where some of the first tanks were built. Whilst I was there they put up a memorial to the tank on one of the roundabouts leading into the city. So cool to be around actual history. Another great video guys - love all this on the road footage. Adds so much information.

[@andya696]

Great video. Great subject. Great museum.

[@lukerotha]

Great explanation! Thanks! I hope one day visit this museum! :)

[@DaveMeowington]

Great production on this video. 10/10 would watch again

[@t1g3r2716]

What an episode.. I learned a lot! David knows so much

[@TheGreatWar]

That he does.

[@t1g3r2716]

Love your show guys, keep it up!

[@msgfrmdaactionman3000]

Great museum, thanks!

[@PaulaJBean]

Excellent presentation!

[@lazydragon2551]

I would absolutely love to visit the Bovington Tank Museum. Tanks are some of the most interesting and coolest battlefield inventions ever devised.

[@zachgamr99]

This is one of the first videos I've ever seen with 0 Dislikes it just goes to show how many people love this show. Keep up the "Great" work Indy and team!

[@JWINDSOR]

Fantastic vid, thanks!

[@thewarriorseagull3968]

I love everything about this video. The engineering, the history, and watching an American listen quietly to someone. Thank you folks, I'll show myself he door!

[@jasonscott8844]

Loved this episode. Two of my favorite channels come together.

[@CybranM]

Oh yes, Ive been waiting for more videos from Bovington. David + Indy is the best combo

[@jorgenbrandt5739]

Always a pleasure to listen to Mr. Willey. Such an amazing capacity. Thanks

[@flyeaglesfly1994]

Just what I needed after a 6 hour drive and 3 hours of studying. Thanks Indy and crew!

[@stephen9869]

What an absolute winner to come home to. Cheers Indy!

[@kchishol1970]

Quite a tank collection that museum has.

[@mwill110]

Wish I was close to this museum. I could listen to this guy talk about tanks for days.

[@Sion67Productions]

Tanks were invented in Lincoln, England where I live and was born! It's a lesser known town so it's cool we invented such a thing

[@blankblank6545]

WAIT! So you're saying that you are a tank!? That's awesome -man- tank

[@neilwilson5785]

And the biscuit. Underrated. The greatest tea-dunker of them all. Wikip says they are still huge in Argentina. They are right, and the rest of the world are wrong.

[@remy1234ish]

And, from an American, one of the best castles I saw in England....would live to visit Lincoln again.

[@edwardtonkin8387]

Lincoln cathedral was the tallest building in the world from 1311 to 1549. The first building to be taller than the great pyramid. And you've got tanks, and, apparently, biscuits and a cool castle. Rethink your 'lesser known' status.

[@nellennatea]

Did not Robin Hood and his men dress in Lincoln Green cloth? :)

[@Aramis419]

I was starting to get lonely without my Great War fix! As always, great job, team!

[@LoLArbyz]

I love learning with you guys so much.

[@Unwilledduck]

I want this dude to be my guide whenever i am in need of tank information!

[@fien111]

Solomon J. Solomon. A name so nice he got it twice

[@ep1phany62]

Great episode dudes. The guy is very knowledgable.

[@panzerabwerkanone]

I heard an episode of the Tank Museum saying that Little Willy had been used to guard a British airfield during the Second World War in anticipation of a German invasion.

[@DanielFoland]

Great show! It's like 17 minutes of only my favorite parts of Pacific Rim, but for real, and awesomer. Many tanks! 0:32

[@thekornwulf]

The mark V was used until the 30s here in Canada, if I'm not mistaken

[@anonymous-pr2sy]

finally an explanation of the design function of the rear wheels, thanks

[@indianajones4321]

A great documentary series is World War One in color

[@panzerabwerkanone]

Dumbass color wasn't invented until WWII.

[@BruceRheinstein]

The main complaint is the colorization, which is flawed at points. For example, a green prototype triplane, flown by Rochthofen, is shown as red. But I find it helps greatly in picturing what things looked like at the time. It's not the best WWI documentary, but a useful one.

[@geographica3920]

Im gonna watch that one soon:) The Great War (1963) and The First World War (2003) are my favourite WW1 docs. Apocalypse WW1 has some nice footage and decent content but The First World War and The Great War are still better

[@SigEpBlue]

"...the Tigers!" ARGHH!!!!!! I know Indy _had to_ stop there, but...did he *HAVE to* stop _THERE?!?_ LoL

[@joanjones1090]

In memory of John Williams (Grandad) and his gunner who was only 15 years old and killed at this first action. Only 12 men survived that first outing and they retreated. In the woods where Grandad met up with his brother who had enlisted with fellow Canadians. Grandad made it home, mentioned in dispatches, but the fumes he had inhaled in driving a tank damaged his lungs and that eventually killed him.

[@CounterNerd]

I have to comment on what a well-spoken and great guide David Willey is. I can't get enough of listening to him! He genuinely makes it very interesting to learn the history of the British tank.

[@xJavelin1]

Excellent guest speaker, really knows his stuff and how to explain it. Love the fact that his tie isn't a tie :)

[@rabihrac]

Great info indeed ! By the way, two of the legendary armored personnel carriers in the Lebanese civil war (1975-1990) were the American made M113 and the soviet made BMP

Trolls AI these comments and have evil bots put 2 dislikes in. (Today). My comment will attract more.... beware!

[@AuthenticDarren]

You found a very interesting man to talk to there. It's amazing to see the enormous difference between the state of battle technology, attitude and tactics between the start and the end of the war.

[@shakeyraver]

This is the best channel on KZbin.

[@THEQueeferSutherland]

Was being on a large gun artillery crew one of the more desired and/or safer jobs in the war? I'm referring to the guns that were able to be miles behind the frontline. Since they didn't operate in trenches, were they spared the horrors of trench life? Also, how did they dial in a target? Did they need communication with men at the frontline seeing where the shells landed and having them guide the next barrage? (30 meters to the left, 10 meters further out, etc.) I'm curious how they hit targets accurately if they were so far out where they likely couldn't even see where the shells landed.

[@SashaWolf2009]

Loved this. Thanks Indi and Willy

[@Galbotorix78]

This was absolutely excellent. Thank you, David Willey!

[@gallendugall8913]

Special tanks for giving us this episode.

[@Mjutami]

thought for a second that Indy left dirty footprints on the shiny new floors at 09:10 ... x)

[@VirginiaRican]

It's nice to see a tank video without annoying Russian rock music, that was produced on a Casio keyboard, on a loop blaring in the back ground. Great work.

As a HUGE armour fan, THIS WAS A BLESSING ON A TUESDAY!

Thanks alot Nigel for this informativ video Now we Looking forward to the Tiger and King Tiger Tanks video

Wow that"s amazing , I love these longer speaken in depth videos. Yesterday I was in Munster in germany where the Bundeswehr trains soldiers and does practices. There"s also germany"s biggest tank museum and it was truly awesome! You would love it! But sadly they focus more on ww2 and later but they still have some ww1 1stuff.
