It’s July 30th 1943 in the skies over Germany and a B-17 named Tondelayo is under attack. In the back is tailgunner Michael L Arooth. Mike as he is known to the crew is ready as the German Me 109s and FW190s come in.. Sometimes 4 at a time. Mike fires away at the mass of German fighters as do the rest of the formation as today there are 186 Flying fortresses and 123 P-47 Thunderbolts in a raid upon German factories.
Getting hit by heavy fire, many of the crew bail. Mike fought on battling the Germans and lack of oxygen. In the end though the plane would have been brought down if it weren’t for the actions of an unknown munitions worker who was forced to work for the Germans.

-Vladimir left the group,
And that Czech worker got to ensure their country would be under Soviet control – directly or indirectly – for another 50 years. I wonder if they survived to see that end too.
Great job on this. The storytelling and voice acting have really improved.
What happened to the cowards who fled?
You can never have enough stories about B-17s and their crews..
Luar biasa 👍🏻
8:47 why is the gun fixed?
if you dont make videos until time itself stops ima be mad
the story telling and choreograph of this vid is intense
though I know generally what goes on in B17 bomb missions now , the feelings of dread, adrenaline hits again
was so pulled in, it didn't feel like 12 min vid
amazing vid once more!
couldnt stop my tears.
the moment when I found out that it is written in Czech, funny that it is my country
Another beautiful video!
You guys are awesome
God bless the brave souls who were under captivity by the Nazis. Brave can't even describe their courage
That check prisoner didn't survive the war but he gave a great gift to 10 it makes me believe he might have been Jewish 11 bullets that should have wiped them out where deliberate duds and whoever it was saved 10 lives, In Judaism these numbers have a special significance, 11 is the significance of where God and man meet, 10 is the number where God stands alone and it takes 10 men in order to make one group validates Jewish praye exactly certain if I'm using the right words and I'm using voice-to-text which can be a problem hands don't work my eyes barely work and my speech is not what it used to be.
I never knew a gunner on the bombers could be an ace
How could the saboteur have thought there was any decent chance that the shell would be opened and his/her note found?
In memory of the graphic cards who gave their lifes to bring us this one. Damn, this was one of the best films.
hello yarnhub can you do the battle of jutland please:]
I hope your animators are getting paid handsomely, the production quality has been getting insane!
me who is from czech and can translate it
thats everything we ,what we need to do
The name stood for "Tom, Delay O." Onions were not something I enjoyed until much later in life. Now I can't stop cooking with them. So coincidentally, that's my plane.
The state of your animation and voice acting is incredible. Its the first time I see a video of yours and the expressions on a characters face are actually transmitting emotions. Yoy are all doing a fantastic job! Thank you for sharing this amazing story.
i seen many germany movie and read many article about WW2…i can say even allied team up to attack germany…germany still can WIN the war IF they dont have POLITICAL shit, COUP among them, and off cause SABOTAGE also…imagine what happen all german accupied land honesly served 100% to hitler ?…only 1 thing i can say…international language today are not in english BUT it will Germany
Im from the Czech Republick and Im so happy from this video.
I've been watching this channel since the early days. I gotta say the quality is improving so much and so fast, thank you Yarnhub for quality contents and narrations.
BTW this clip gives me goosbum, Props to you guys
@10:58 OMG
Hello yarnhub umm I wanted to say that I'm Empresed by you skills and hard work for making this video so can I make a request on a fictional animation on modern tanks vs WW2 era tanks we might be surprised and delighted if you can make this.
NO WAY!?! I LOVE it! It totally gives you hope in the man kind.
Struggling to believe this one. Dummy shells containing a message on a rolled up bit of paper were found inside the fuel tank of a B17. Well, thanks for the nonsense.
This channel is superb!
8:47 Looks like someone missed a proper cut… Left barrel should be crippled, shouldn't it? 😆
Awesome, a masterpiece and beautifully inspiring, congratulations! Thanks
This 17 knocked down 3 x 109s on this 1 mission. Tail gunner had 19 total kills . Until this video I thought 50cal armament on B17s was futile.
you wont believe this, but i know the GrandChild of the person that sabotaged those shells. i will not give any names however, due to not asking them if it is ok.
it was a Woman, and she was indeed forced to produce Ammo for the German Airforce's 20mm's and 15mm's. but their Quality Control was non-existant due to them being INCREDIBLY cocky in their belief that not a single soul would DARE defy the 3rd Reich, to which they were obviously VERY wrong lol. she is however sadly dead now. she died 5 years ago at an age of 93.
may she rest in peace, knowing she saved lives with her incredible sabotage work.
This channel should have millions of subscribers.
8:47 wait a minute its fixed?
That was 17 not 19
