Because the Krauts needed fertilizer more than atomic energy.

The Germans were very far away from creating the bomb at war end. This actually surprised the Allies. While destroying the heavy water was important and a great operation, the Germans program was minuscule compared to the Manhattan project. Unfortunately quite a bit of hubris at the end of the documentary.

[@stevetruth2696]

Yes. Perhaps they would have had a self sustaining reaction but how long to actually enrich U235 or make plutonium? Me thinks a few years.

But yeah they never ever achieved a nuclear bomb.....like the Americans did.

Telemark province - the land of my mother's father's lineage, the 2nd richest (to the royal capitol and Oslo territory). I love hearing about this heavy water machinery from the Fjord waters, and the eventual sinking of the barrels on the fjory ferry being blown up and sinking. Norway has greater worldwide impacts that are not known by the rest of the world, since ancient times.

[@AlexMarciniszyn-y1k]

The Germans produced heavy water in Germany at the Linde Eismaschinen AG in Britz, The loss of supply from Norway was made up.

[@johnlord8337]

@@AlexMarciniszyn-y1k Then, logically, the Germans should have started from Linde, with Todt doing the building, out of the way of Allied bombing. Tthe whole war ~might~ have had a different outcome !!! But with the government and military leadership on amphetimines, methamphetamines, morphine, cocaine, Pervitin/Eukodol/D-IX/oxycodone, ,,, what else can you expect from illogical dopers and fd up thinking !! The only person in his right mind was Werner Von Braun, ... and I met his brother (of this video) in Arizona back in the late 1980s.

[@sharonwhiteley6510]

The Allies were looking for a project that equaled our Manhattan Project. The Germans were interested in a tactical warhead for the V2 rockets. There are multiple reports of projects under General Kammler in a variety of areas. One involved a report by a German pilot getting caught up in a mushroom cloud, his instruments going haywire and suffering nosebleeds. Reports of Russian POWs being placed close to a detonation and their deaths. Citizens and military being treated for a variety of unexplained burns and uncontrollable nosebleeds. Yes, a ferry carrying heavy water was sunk in a fjord. Yet, the Germans had small multiple labs spread throughout a variety of areas under different scientists.

[@blakepeterson2533]

Pretty good! I liked the deep dive into Hambro, the SOE, and the use of mostly accurate clips! Some criticism- the details of the actual raid seemed nonexistent.. 2 min video time. I thought the explanation of what heavy water is/is used for could be better. Op Gunnerside was a success, but the video refers to it as “flawless” after just describing the blunder that was Op Freshman. It is an interesting “what if” but realistically it would never have happened. Germany lacked the raw uranium, the ability to refine it, the capability to deliver an atomic weapon, and heavy water was a non-starter (hence why the allies didnt use it despite manufacturing OOM more than germans). Doesnt detract from the bravery of these men one iota. But germany was never going to have an atom bomb having started the war when AH did.

[@mrhamburger6936]

In Operation paperclip American scientists and commandos found Germany's nuclear project they packed up everything and left nothing as fast and ship back to the United States so the Soviets would not get their hands on it and you'll never find out what they all ship back actually it was top priority top secret there was uranium
