WW2 Soldiers Uniforms Found In The Forest (217)

[@MrRedScorpion1]

Not sure if any one has said this to you before, as I am a new to your channel. But, I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to bring histories evidence to the world again. These artifacts are priceless and all tell the story of soldiers on all sides life and struggles. I don't think very many people appreciate the artifacts for that aspect.

[@cyberdrift2077]

Hello my name is Chris...I'm German :) So 10:50 you have a little metal peace with the words: Echt Vulkanfibre in English Real Vulcanfibre Vulcanfibre is a kind of textile which was first invented at about 1860. It's a textile which was combined with chemical stuff like Cink. So it was really durable! This stuff was used for suitcases, belts and for other parts which had to be very strong. I hope it will help. With best regards Chris

Am i the only one that really loves this guy? I mean he is really amaizing!

[@trishstefanuk5619]

Been watching you journey around the uk. This older video came up with he music intro. Love it, have to go back and watch the old shows again!

[@breslittleyarncornor5680]

I just got all the videos of you I could find. I love detecting but most of these people bore me to tears. can't say that about you. your humor and enthusiasm is amazing.

[@charliemccullough2892]

He looks like a very friendly and happy guy :)

[@Madmick82]

Its only a matter of time until you accidently uncover a body from WW2 I reckon Dan

[@stephanwolfhunter]

I'm rather surprised he hasn't already, especially in his digs around Berlin. Between the Seelow Heights area, east of Berlin, to Berlin itself, was one huge fight in the closing days of the war. The dead on both sides, that they know about, were in the tens of thousands! The German govt has graves registration people whose jobs are to locate and recover remains, and they find them all the time.

[@TheGibshome]

Well figuring if the Germans did the same as the Americans and recovered their dead and gave a proper burial then it's not likely ( I'm not much is a history person btw)

[@iHumerousDragon]

TheGibshome u remember seeing u on iballisticsquids chat section

[@joshcoulthard2260]

@TheGibshome no the Germans didn't do that especially with the French and other people they killed , they were all pretty much burnt unless they were found by the British then they were given a memorial

[@maddogmaddie3867]

madmick82 the war happened a long time ago so the body decay

[@racoonman100]

Nice to get out amongst it again I'm sure. Thanks for sharing. Paul

[@jeffwilkes4508]

Hello dan ! A great video and relics ! It's amazing that the German trench coat is in such condition , that's in itself a great find ! Also thanks for the tour of the German graveyard ! May all solders of war rest in peace ! Well done dan .

[@BZBadger]

the "shoe" is a sole plate for jack boots. Great video once again.

[@angelofs4]

So cool. It looks fun metal detecting around a ww2 area.

[@McBadger77]

Hey Dan as a rule beware any projectile wider than 1/2 inch. Projectiles wider than that likely will contain an explosive charge with or without a visible fuze, (some have the fuze inside and thus are not visible) Even some training munitions contain a explosive charge. Many people believe that training munitions are safe. The truth is some are not and so all must be treated with the same lack of handling as explosive ammunition. Great show,

[@Nitrus5]

So glad your back there detecting

[@Zizumia]

I was thinking when you found the cemetery, "Oh he better not have dug up a grave and stolen one of those soldier's uniform!" LOL

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Cool video as always :) 3.20 _ Teller mine detonator. WW2HH

[@iamfrankenstein2712]

At 3:37 that looks like a land mine detonator pressure pad might be wrong but still cool

[@christopherhale8116]

At 3:14 this item is a German WW2 Zunder DZ - 35 pressure igniter.

[@freddieeatsgoldcoins]

Hi Dan, Great video, very interesting finds...cheers,G:)

[@hoosierdaddy2308]

Dan, at 9:46 I think you found the end of a lanyard type thing that goes on a uniform. I might be wrong, but I believe there was a rope inside that thing. You might look at German / Russian uniforms from the period and see one. Thanks my friend.

[@nickfree46]

Cheers dan another good and interesting video. Keep em up. Nick fae scotland.

[@05222007MER]

Great video Dan. Great finds. Be careful with the dangerous ones. Lots of buttons and the pencil sharpener is really cool. Best wishes and HH:)

[@realredrebel]

Just wanted to check in. I watch most all your videos. Don't comment much because I'm laughing too much. Best of Luck.

[@nance2uable]

Awesome finds Dan!

[@BenRollinsActor]

A lot of cemeteries here in the U.S. have gone to using the flush-set markers in the ground. They make it easier to mow the grass.

[@mattenglish2341]

At 13:40 I reckon that's a 20mm armour piercing tank projectile given that you said it was very heavy

[@TheJohn316uk]

cool vid dan and great interesting ww2 finds john :)

[@Immortal-Headcase]

During WW2 German soldiers were often shipped out at the drop of a hat, it was usually during the summer and soldiers tended to pack a light kit, This can become a problem if they are there for a long time and winter starts to set in, so the military would pack winter uniforms all together in parcels and ship them out later, those bits of plastic stuff with the trench coats were probably the remains of a cap peak, the boots and pants were either looted or rotted, you could get away with wearing the boots and pants but it wouldn't be healthy to run around wearing a Nazi cap and coat just after WW2. My grandad fought at Monte Cassino and got hold of one, unfortunately he was wounded and while in hospital it was stolen from his kit.

[@dilli118]

nice one Dan, give us some more deepfried, after all you are a professional.

[@BenRollinsActor]

Actually, the shell casing at 6:00 was never fired. The primer is unmarked.

[@AlsAllMetalDetecting]

MMMM... Frog legs... Very interesting Jacket find Dan. Be well, Al-Fu

[@Supradrew]

Hi Dan. Whoa! I've never seen anyone dig up a trench coat before. Very cool Dan. ttyl -Drew

[@dermelonensaft3103]

10:19 ... german with a AK-47 in WW2? How? Russian frog!

[@suzienada7253]

love your videos Dan! You're very brave to go around unscrewing things, you just found a grenade LOL! Be safe :)

[@locouk]

Grenades for sale! :D lol Great video again Dan, thanx.

[@nick291002]

Very nice finds, i like the tellermine detonnator. GL&HH Nick Ps. Why do you think that everything is a pencil? The first time you found an incendiary bomb you said that it could be a giant pencil

[@WalkThaBarbender]

Called a trench lighter if you are curious. You could pull the wick and stand out and light it and set it somewhere like a candle.

[@garregarrett3087]

Great video rastaaaaa

[@MasonFlynn1]

Grape sent me! :D

[@ChaosGenerator]

You look like Mr. Bean, (hilarious and authentic-looking facial expressions and all) and I look like Brad Pitt, mixed with Mr.Bean, and my true Cousin, black abolitionist and former slave, Frederick Douglass. What's more ironic is that I'm also directly related to King "Longshanks" King Edward I, slayer of the Scots.

[@SINCLAIRRESEARCH]

hi love your vids,,,,better than the telly rubbish.....what is best detector to use?..what type is yours please. keith.

[@mrdeuce7]

DD you rock!

[@paulwilletts2278]

Top vid dan some great finds there too :D

[@flatfeetpete4045]

That's my house! I was on the shitter! I wondered why I could hear voices;)

[@BryanArgent983]

Great video, Dan! Seeing the cemetery reminded me that when I was little, I used to think that the people were buried in the rocks, so the little headstones were babies that passed away and the big ones were for fat blokes. Ah, the crazy explanations that kids come up with for stuff.

[@warlockcommandcenter]

That first thing you showed was a fuse for a landmine

[@zbauman7437]

Kinda sad to know that you are walking on hallowed ground. Cause you know eventually that you'll step where someone gave their life fighting. Sad...

[@peerfunk]

did you ever find human bones?

[@TokyoTom]

So good finds there dan

[@HuntingWheel10]

What is the little hand metal detector

[@player-zz9bf]

The little foxhole where you found the canteens and stuff is probably where some russians or germans stayed for some time because the small bullet looked like one similar to the PPSH-41(Russian) or STG-44 (German). Also the canteens look like german food bowls they ate out of.

[@JoachimPetersson]

Really cool! I would like to search like this in sweden.

[@JoachimPetersson]

***** I know, but it´s easy to get. Just send a letter to Länsstyrelsen.

[@TMC1877]

did you keep the cloth from the trench coats?

[@ADA2130174]

there no way those cabins are consistently abandoned, those potted plants seemed to be very lively, especially the vines going up the wall of house rofl

[@rossingyuo]

I'm a thirteen year old boy with no interest in metal detecting whatsoever but I love your videos!:-D

[@roybrown1650]

Keep Digging Dan!!!!

[@Joe-yk2zf]

Kermit the German ww2 frog holding a post ww2 gun wow them frogs are gd 😂, cool video btw, thanks from 🇬🇧

[@Kim-ds3nm]

What was the long rod type thing called that he puts in the ground to find out where the stuff is? :P

[@garrygemmell5676]

Kim Durie Garrett Pinpointer

[@shezzy247]

His dick

[@garrygemmell5676]

***** Thats one impressive Dick then...

[@Kae-Lexi]

+Garry Gemmell He's not called Deep Dick'er Dan for nothin, folks

[@hunterthibodeau7337]

ur pretty

[@SIG442]

8:15 Metal foots were actually used in some army boots at that time. So this boot was either blown off a foot or the boot was broken by wear and tear. Might be from a Soviet boot. 13:31 What did this person try to shoot? A elephant? That bullet is rather big. Rare find as well. Hope you decide to keep that for your personal collection. This one is easily end 1700s up to end 1800s. 13:53 rifle grenade, and so far I can see LIVE! 16:00 Looks to me more like a Soviet trenchcoat, they used a beltbuckle very similar to the one you found. Look at the picture and you should see what i mean. i4.photobucket.com/albums/y125/iannima/Soviet/Uniforms22.jpg

[@aviverde9031]

13:30 thats not a bullet. its for construction to center things it has string in middle where theres a hole. cant remember name :)

[@joehunt1980]

9:49 one of those things you stick a cigarette into and smoke through the other end?

[@RetaliationGAMING13]

8:20 I knew the Germans were building robots. #wolfenstein

[@szxpt7520]

Did you ever think of digging up that tank you found with fans

[@ArcturanMegadonkey]

very good video, would love to detect there mate

[@ROBLOXiaUpdater]

Coldplay; Green Eyes was the song he was playing on the guitar in this video.

[@Grant01hess]

Great vid! What you do is what life is all about......experience this world and enjoy good times with wonderful people. If you ever get to the U.S. it will be the same, :)The oldest stuff you will find. 5000 year old late archaic period copper. Older than Roman stuff. It's awesome!!! GL + HH!!!!!

[@shermanthegerman3524]

Great vid

[@acs123ism]

That rubbery stuff's probably the jacket lining.

[@player-zz9bf]

I forgot to add the PPSH-41 is a sub machine gun and the STG-44 is more like a battle rife.

[@majornedkelly1408]

The STG-44 is an assault rifle. Battle Rifles shoot full sized rounds i.e 7.62x54r, 8mm, 30-06, 7.62x51, etc

[@terman59]

I love your channel

[@erberjayhawk6069]

wow what a great find !

[@frankieeisenberg6506]

What does D R on the one find mean? Deutches Reich?

[@jdggames]

The metal foot is from the German soldiers boots when they were digging the tunnels trying to expose enemy trenches

[@mn8992]

The uniform was probably in a container? That might be the plastic stuff.

[@Sondenberg]

I actually think that there was a soldier in that uniform, but since it's about 150 years since he died, he has rotten away. Cool video BTW! :)

[@SLRNRG]

150??? Don't ya mean 100-69 years old

[@logandouglas2821]

he would have died in the 40's. so not 150 yrs ago

[@airsoftarmycousin2473]

Dan that un screwy thingy I think that was a mine when the soldiers would step on the top it would explode

[@skatingnshredding109]

What detector do you use dan

[@lucabrock7266]

copied from description: Metal Detectors Used: XP Deus Whites V3i Pro Pointer: Garrett Pro Pointer Cameras Used: Kodak Playsport ZX5 Go Pro Hero 3+ Black Edition Samsung Galaxy S4

[@TheStgmp44]

I would guess that the rubbery material that was with the trench coat to be a gas cape.

[@tsardeans1124]

That bullet at 13:24 may be from a Dreyse needle gun

[@garrygemmell5676]

Thought it might be the forest of Hurtgen - would love to go there apparently its a goldmine for WWII Relics. Battle of Halbe. There are about 15,000 Germans buried in the cemetery at Halbe, making it the largest war cemetery in Germany from World War II. Would love to go to Kursk as well , you planning a trip to Vladimirs territory ever Dan?

[@trejude1319]

What ever happened to the uniform

[@MrJdmboy10]

1:10 could be a binocular case

[@sergantclark]

werent most of them leather?

[@billgregory9684]

3:33 I think is the plunger for a landmine

[@frankkempton9670]

What is the name of the song in the intro plz tell me and can I get a shout out for no reason

[@allbunsglazing]

He's got a detector video which includes which one he uses, afaik

[@MrSweatychad]

Metal Detector, by, they might b giants.

[@joshuacrewdson697]

[@AlexProo1000]

im asking to myself what happened to the owners?

[@ItsMrBrendanG]

I laughed so hard at the lego rifle grenade XD

[@elliottmatthews2317]

The thing you pulled out of the ground is a Russian pineapple mine and it is now illegal for the hurendus infliction it caused on people and will still work

[@ianloeb1672]

Block 6? Dude! i think you have just found the ruins of a P.O.W camp!!

[@AragenZx]

2:34 its a sadle where you can use it for soup

[@SLRNRG]

1.its ladle 2.LISTEN NEXT TIME HE SAID ITS A LADLE

[@1rich14]

Fook tard

[@tigerfang6063]

That metal foot was in a boot, possibly wore by one of the larger Russian or German soldiers

[@VioletMarbitz]

i laughed so hard when he showed a picture of a ww2 german frog i laughed so hard

[@VioletMarbitz]

[@derrickmurphy1748]

[@awesomejosh2977]

You found a mine you screw off the top put the stuff inside the bury half if it then they step on it and it blows up

[@abrahamschroer6939]
