Lots of historic ideas have been dumb. However, there have been a lot of historic ideas that, despite being dumb, were actually really smart.

Humans: smart enough to control a huge war machine that lives underwater Also humans: **in a firefight** oh look, a potato! Better throw it back before it explodes.

*Logic left the chat*
When I watched this I was literally cringing
USSR: sends a satellite to space America: *nuke the moon???*
USSR: We're going to paint the moon red. USA: Ok, Coca Cola needs new advertisement space anyways.
America: So anyway I started bombing...
And that was America BEFORE Trump!
The entire world: [softy] don't

“Potato battle” angry techno blade noises
Lmao

Why is techno blade involved
I can just imagine those Japanese soldiers looking up and talking to each other being like Soldier 1: Look at the cool moves that plane is making! Soldier 2: Woahh!!! It made a loop!!! Soldier 1: I'm sure a plane that cool won't rain us with bombs or could be bad right? Soldier 2: Yeah, I'm sure this is fine! Not like we're guarding a camp of war prisoners who are mostly soldiers! XD
Melo mixie, just because their choices was dumb doesn’t mean they are dumb, many people died and nobody deserved death during WW2, except Adolf Hitler.
@@H1storyRemembers I h8 war as it has no Victor's. And every country has tainted their history with a war crime or two. That said, internment camps arent a picnic. The soldiers who worked there should have been made of metal or atleast have a complete disregard for the other sides life. A skill that must be prevalent if you are to survive in war. Both sides played the game and payed the price for their country. Whether that meant committing a war crime or not or being deemed a deserter. That's that. Hitler himself wasnt the only monster in ww2. There were contenders for that before and during and even after his time. It's best not to dictate who deserves it and who doesnt because you dont know the person.

"...one of the strangest and arguably dumbest moments in US history..." 2020: "Am i a joke to you?"
Coronavirus:I'm GoNnA DeSTrOY YoU Edit: it's part of the quip
Origami Chik3n no that’s not it there dumbest are when invaded iraq and tried to invade vietnam and when they threw a nuke on japan and gave palastain to the izraials which is still getting a lot of innocent people killed under mining the laws that forbid invading countries that they made
Trumps hold my bleach
@@user-jk8vh3cw2x If the idiots didn't declare war on the US through a terrorist attack..... the Middle East wouldn't be in so much chaos. So, yeah. Declaring war against the US was Vietnams most stupid mistake.
2020 is the worst episode of the Twilight Zone ever!

Stop telling the truth
How'd u know ;-;

alphadawn2015 lennon Who says bot like that, bot?
Who are you?, how did you know?
The V-1's weren't filled with just enough fuel to make it to their target, they actually had a way cooler way of coming down on their targets. That little prop in the nose of the missile was actually connected to a series of clockwork like gearing inside that could be set so after X number of turns of the prop it would engage the elevators and pitch the bomb downwards towards and onto the target.
I have a feeling they were moving just a little bit too fast to be "bumped with the wings" too...
@@dengudomlige8644 no the fighters could catch up to them, plus they didn't even bump them. They just needed to get their wingtip close enough to use the Eddie current coming off their wingtip to push the v1's wing tip up and cause it to bank off course
@@JoshVmanly Thanks, I was thinking V2:s, it makes sense if I pay more attention to the video...
The V-1 used magnetic guidance in addition to the prop odometer. By the end of the war they were able to hit within a 7 mile radius of the desired target.
also tipping the wing v1 moved quicker than the control gyro could counter it also when of course the gryo said keep going on this line it could not regain its origanal flight line.
This channel has helped inspire me to amaze people with marine life , I hope one day I can be a fraction as big as this channel
Good luck
Hope you do bro

I'll sub in good faith
@kid with a LAZER MINIGUN k ;-;
Sleeping with the enemy is always a brilliant idea..... Just ask James Bond! 😁
At other times, it's rape. Often used as a weapon of war (or because invading troops are just randy?).
Lol
Notice how they all die though?
@@ironwoodnf9128 only after he gets his intel, there's no further use after that 🤷🏼♂️
Well 😎
an american once threw a potato at a Japanese submarine , which helped them win the battle as the Japanese thought the potatos were grenades XD
😂
What planet are the Japanese from? Only middle eastern potatoes explode From mother Russia the purest potato bombs are harvested

The prisoner rescue using the “air show” was a great idea! Sometimes listening to such a level of violence is hard to imagine. Glad they were able to rescue them!
There's a really good movie starring James Franco based on that POW camp and the raid on it to get the soldiers out. Its called The Great Raid. One of my favorite movies of all times. Definitely worth a watch!
Ideas that were so dumb they actually were smart Me: Taco cake.
Were not Where!

Last Survivor that’s what he said
@@neonknightz2642 (Edited)
Holy shit
"Bomb flipper" Sounds like some INCREDIBLY RISKY vigilante
My Great Grandfather was on the USS O'Bannon when this happened. That is exactly how he told me it happened also. He said they started throwing them back, because they were yelling "bombs away", and calling them grenades as the potatoes were used in such an ironic scenario haha
Lol that’s awesome
“The great potato war” Technoblade anyone?
I didn’t know techonblade had any fans
Coincidently, it came right before the great potato famine.
Potatoes are the most powerful weapon
Hot potato books are also indeed very powerful
US soldier: throws potato* Japanese soldier: Holy sh*t!!
Irishman: Why oh why.
You have to admit, the "cow track" device is pretty slick.

What a potato battle 😂

Hmm... pretty interesting video this time, I actually watched it till the end
He’s amazed

That sergeant must've felt really vindicated when they realized they were tricked.
8:42 I heard about this one. It's one of my favorite things to talked about when it comes to WWII! I love history.
These are things I would come up with
no i think all of us think like this
No they're not.
Not to insult your intelligence, but I’m insulting your intelligence. They are not.
I'm too dumb to think what to do😅
Nu uhh... only I would think of things like this!! Lol. Ok Mr. Modest

3:04 The Black Widow: one of the coolest and yet sadly little-known aircraft of all time. 4:11 I think the usual technique was to get the plane's wing UNDER the flying bomb's wing and then flip it UP. The way you show, the plane and bomb would tend to move toward each other, and they would already be dangerously close. #2 -- Nah, we could have thrown all the nukes we had at the moon, and it wouldn't have "blown it up." Just put on a light show and make some new craters. 11:14 this is why we have the Second Amendment. Don't you believe that the right to bear arms is just about having something to hunt with.
all gun control and all gun laws are a infringement of the second admendmet
On the bomb flippers, the usual technique was to shoot the V-1 down. If there ever was a case of bomb flipping, it was because of lack of ammo.
@@RBCharger That makes sense. I've heard of pilots doing all sorts of things to bring down an enemy when they were out of ammo.
Something similar to #5 happened when Italy invaded Greece in 1940. While Italy's Air Force was not strong, compared to, say, the UK, it was far larger and better equipped than the meager force the Greeks could marshall. Still, one pilot, Marinos Mitralexis (you can look him up) managed to shoot one Italian plane down and, being out of ammo, used his propeller to damage another plane enough to force it to land (his own plane, a Polish made PZL P24, sustained enough damage so he too had to land. He managed to capture the 4-man crew by the use of his pistol!!
I love the improvisation of the kids and towns people at the end who didn't have weapons and used jam and soap instead, that and the potato launching guys lol talk about using what you've got. It's good for them that it actually worked.
9:19 ... that's what I call A F O O D . F I G H T ! ! !
HAHA!
Thumbnail: IRISH WASHIP AND SUBMARINE BATTLE IT OUT WITH THE HOLY POTATO
4:28 that is really cool and smart but you gotta admit that a good bottle flip is still pretty satisfying
Glad found this channel today.. I was getting bored everyday. This channel is gold
Potatoes... That got me dumbfounded tk the point I rewatch that scene... Seriously, what makes them think it's a bomb? ( apparently the paranoid ones. )
becuse of the shape i guess
They thought the potatoes were grenades being lobbed at their Submarine

I love this channel so much and this video might be a new favorite!
Imagine having your military defeated by a man throwing beer bottles and bean cans at them😂😂
Well you can't leave a bro hanging of you got a spare beer. Toss him a cold one.
Me, a piggy fan, when I heard “the great POTATO battle” Mr. p?
No, they did not throw Mr. P. However he would have helped with his gun...
I eat mr. P

At first i thought you were talking about technoblade but ok...
The French lived by "No rules in war"..even a lie is fair game"...now who's dumb?
WOW! I have heard of crazy things happening in history, but this takes it to a whole new level!
Yeah, especially the potato one
@5:25 That's taking "Food Fight" to another dimension! :D
This is how I go to sleep just watching till I’m sleepy
Which one were you most impressed with? Its hard to choose one lmao.
These stories are so interesting. Also love your commentary. You’re a riot. 🌟
I loved all the war stories. I had not ever heard of them. Thank you.

At the Battle of Flodden, the English faced the Scots & French. Thanks to the French the Scots were armed with the latest "smart" weapon - an extra-long pike - a long wooden pole up to 7 metres long with a pointy and very hurty tip. The English had a much shorter weapon based on the agricultural billhook, which gave them a reach a bit beyond arm's length. But the English won. Why? Because they chopped off the handles of the pikes, leaving the Scots only with their daggers (called dirks) and it turned into a melee fight. Apparently (and this bit could be legend only) the Scots blamed the French because in their eventual joint flight, somehow not one Frenchman survived.
5:32 I thought he was gonna talk about Molotov cocktails.
8:32 Jacksepticeye will be proud
Technoblade would be as well
Me: so that's how Japan and usa get memes
That last one was the best 😂🙌
That Potato fight is like me firing a machine gun at a heavy tank in War Thunder, panicking after I missed a shot.
Aww this is so cool sir make a vid on july14 its my bday sir pls thx gobless
2 minutes ago.. Me: *realizes that the video is overall history, not only WW2*
That airshow was awesome.
I love 2 things in this channel aside from information. The narrator and less ads
“Don’t lie who’s been a fan of BE AMAZED before 2020?😇” (Read My Name)❤️
Shut up bot
“Technoblade joins the chat“
Kezet fel aki magyar! Ha lettek volna fegyvereink, már nem tudták volna leverni a forradalmat. Greetings from Hungary!
Potato Battle #3: My cousin and I fighting over the last chip (Things can get really nasty quickly, the last time we fought, I got a bruise on my shoulder and on my knee, and my cousin got a black eye and some scrapes from nails.)
You know what they did actualy? They sent children with granades and molotoves againts the tanks, hoping that the tank crew will not shoot "inocant children"! Ofcourse the most tank were shoot them because the molotov easly flowed in the tank making it in to a men cooking owen... This jelly and jam tactic must be a mith or some sorth of fake information, or one occasion that almost noone knows. I never heard of it, and I am Hungarian that lived his whole life in Budapest.
Same.
Isn’t that the hitler youth?
8:32 The Japanese should of brought the potatoes to the kitchen and made potatoe soup as their "Last supper" 😂
This channel is So Cool, Great video 👍👍👍👍❤️
This video made me AMAZED
hello, Im from phillipines and I really like your vids, and my grampa was in there when retrieving the soldiers 3:05
I love these kinds of videos!
If only i discovered this channel 5 years ago. Would have been an interesting essay to write
XD
That coldwar one seems a bit more blackmail than bluff, which makes it the funniest to me.
Those first two were downright cheeky, in my opinion
Reminded me of a true story which happened in the seventies set up by a devious dairy farmer. The farmer approached a local dairy delivering milk locally and asked if they would sell him old milk bottles to stand up on end and cover with plywood to make a warm floor for his calves. They sold him 20,0000 old bottles for virtually nothing. He then started selling organic milk from his farm in direct competition to the dairy! It ended up starting a milk war with his delivery vehicles having water put in fuel tanks and tyres slashed!
I already knew about the v1 bomb from a history book
3:03 its funny my great grandpa was in that war.
Best channel. Keep up good work.
10:12 After that Master Roshi did the job by his kamehameha lol
That one with the bridge oh my God that got me good
The number one story deserves to be number 1. Do you know how badass you have to be..to run up to a armed Soviet war machine and smear jelly over the sights.
A funny coincidence is that during WWII the U.S. Navajo code talkers used the native word for "potato" when referring to grenades.
How he explains everything sooooo good🤯
The last anecdote's moral is: "Feed the Hungary".
The potato war is indeed my favorite. In 2nd, the guy throwing bottles of beer and army rations.
Technoblade won the great potato war
"Mad Jack" Churchill. Fought in WW2 with a longsword and longbow. Survived the entire war
I love you so narrator, you're the best of this channel
One more thing about 1956 Hungary: Hungarians used pans as landmines to distract the soviets and when they ended up into a dead end (by changing the route because of the "land mines") the hungarians throw a lot of molotovs to neturalize or destroy the enemy tanks (this scene also apears a movie called "Szabadság, Szerelem" {Meaning in eglish : "Freedom, Love"; this movie only hungarian}).
when you have so much adrenaline that you think potatoes are hand grenades
