From the podium on stage, as he was about to begin, he paused, looked down on them and said "What's this? A sponsored walk?" Enjoy! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bomueJt9ZbxjgrM

Now here's a great bit of fun film trivia for you. The actor -- Derren Nesbitt -- who plays the cold-blooded black-uniformed uber-Nazi Gestapo officer Major Von Halpen first seen at 2:09, who Clint Eastwood eventually drills right between the eyes with a Luger pistol fitted with a silencer, is not only British in real life (he is still alive and 88 years old), but he's also actually Jewish. His full name is Derren Nesbitt Horwitz. I'm sure he had some fun jokes thrown his way at family gatherings after he made this movie.

In 1935, the German company Heinkel built and flew the world's first practical military helicopter. This machine, called the “Heinkel He 49,” was designed as a reconnaissance aircraft and could reach speeds of up to 100 kilometers per hour. The movie story was around 1943-44, It might be different look as the one in the movie though. 🍿🎉
@jujufactoryАй бұрын
@@motionattached What are you talking about? The Heinkel HE 49 is a plane. Not a hellicopter. The Germans had nothing which resembled even remotely the hellicopter you see in the movie. The one henlicopter they had was the Flettner, which looks nothing like the one in the movie... and was mostly experimental. The movie suggests officers were flying around in hellicopters... which is total nonesense. Even Hitler never set his foot on a hellicopter as these early contraptions were mostly unsafe and useless.

Yes... but not the Bell helicopter shown in the movie, the basic type of which wasn't in production until after WWII (the very end of 1946, I believe) -- think Korean War (remember the TV series and movie, "Mash"?). The Germans had a wire-frame-type twin rotor craft that flew some, not the circa-1953 version shown in the movie. The Americans had an early Sikorsky single-rotor craft that began flying rescue missions in the Pacific and Burma theaters in 1944 (albeit, in limited numbers and limited missions).
