I hope you are having a great day! The video was already done for a few days, but I had some trouble with the automatic system of KZfaq, and it was saying there was a possibility for this video to be demonetized. So I had to contact KZfaq to ask for a personal review, and no problems were found, so that's good news! Sorry it took a bit longer, but I hope you enjoy the video!

It's really nice to see a young person that has a love for this kind of history. I didn't think a person like you existed! Kudos from another collector, me!

Hi my great grandpa is 101 he is a WW2 vet he loves watching your vids he was in the Australian army

I'm so excited. finally the videos from the private collection are back! Keep up the great work nick❤

Can't wait for Part 3! Thanks so much for taking the time to show us all of these great stuff! Don't worry, you don't talk too much - your explanations are great!

Can’t believe I’ve been watching you since 2018, what a journey it has been

My grandpa was in the 82d I showed him this vid he loved it keep up the good work nick!

Thank you very much Nick for producing amazing content for all of us to enjoy. I can't wait to see the living history events you attended this year 🙌

Your collection video is what led me to your channel in the Summer of 2019 from there you have inspired me to get in reenacting. Thank you Nick!

Hope all is well with you there. Great video and nice to see there is still someone treasure a history that was long forgotten. I personally enjoyed it. I'll never forget Combat!

Again that energy of deceased soldiers still attached to a specific item that was very important for him when he was alive (at least it looks like it) Yeah i know, people will laugh at me, but i have the same "problem" with one of my German items (i only collect(ed) German). When i watch a documentairy about WW2 and in the docu when authentic WW2 music is being played, i got the same chills an goose bumps. But not only that At this specific moment, a clearly also smell the textile of the uniforms mixed with a odor of leather, weapon oil and sigar smoke. And it's interesting to note that all my stuff is in another room. And i even don't have uniforms, weapon oil, leather (except the inside of the German helmet), or sigars. I mainly for the biggest part i have medals, decorations, belt buckeles, and some German helmets. One of my German helmet is in 100% condition (M42 no decals), orginal paint, has never been tempered with or restored. About 30 years ago i payed 400 guldens for that specific helmet (about 400 Euro's) So i don't expect people to believe me, but this is what happens from time to time. Especially when at docu's (for instance) the song "Ich brauche kein millionen" (I don't need millions) by " Marika Rökk 1939" or "Ich warte auf dich" (I'll will wait for you) from 1944 is being played. I just wanted to write about it, to some blow off steam, because it's has quite an impact on my life. I'm not being terrorised or something, but the idea that there is somekind of "presence" or energy, is kind uncomforting yet also exciting.

Beautiful collection, Nick. So much history!❤️

The amount of knowledge and understanding you have about all these amazing pieces of history is admirable. I hope you take time in future videos to share more in depth details of some of these items. Looking forward to the next part.

Hey Nick, there's actually one more helmet type after the "m42", it's often referred to as "m45" but really it's a ventless "m42" with a simplified liner that does not have a liner band. The prototype that made what the "m56" ddr helmet what it was, is the B-2 helmet, during the battle of Berlin, the Infanterie division "Potsdam" from Wenck's 12th army and elements of an Infanterie schule were equiped with them in March-April 45. The B-2 helmet came with an m44 style liner and classic "m42" rivets and one authentic example is exposed in Dresden's "Militärhistorisches Museum der Bundeswehr".

Love the videos nick! Keep up the good work!

What a outstanding collection Nick. If I had to choose one private collection to look at, it would be yours. That SS m35 is just incredible beyond words.

I'm three seconds in and already loving it. Keep up the excellent work Nick!

Thanks for finishing up the tour love your intrest in history and your collection

Really enjoyed the video mate can't wait for the next one

I'm always so jealous when you show your collection. I've seen the prices for those helmets and they are insane. Great video!

Yeah part 2 is out I'm gonna watch it now! your the best!

@History Secrets/Nick - No, you don't talk too much at all. You share the wonderful historical information about each item and that is very much appreciated, which is why you have 249,000 subscribers. :) I hope you have insurance on your collection? If some tragedy occurred, like a house fire or a thief, that would be a horrible loss. Considering the value of your collection, I seem to recall that you actually live in and have your collection in Manila, Philippines, correct? :) Question; I'm curious, do you speak three languages, Dutch, English and German I presume? Do you speak any other languages? Your command of the English language is excellent.

Absolutely Amazing! And I thought that my WW 2 Militaria Collection was impressive. Like this guy, I am very particular & protective, when it comes to my military collectibles. No one is allowed in my collectibles room, with very few exceptions. This man has a very nice WW 2 Military Collection & that is what makes history come alive, honoring those who fought & died in their allegiance to their country.

Wow what a wonderful collection thanks for putting all of these historical pieces all in one place for us to marvel at. Thanks for sharing your great collection. Isn't history fascinating!

Hey Ty for the great videos and thank you for making me feel better after my pop passed hope your able to expand you collection this year too From a fan

Hey Nick I just want to personally thank you so much. you always make my day. And you inspired me to buy a uniform lot from the 44th division, a Italian m33 helmet, a WWI Austria-Hungarian helmet. And WWI German field binoculars. Anyway have a great 2023

I enjoyed going around and seeing the things you own. You can be proud of your collection because it is really good, excellent in fact. Let me just add that I see that you know the subject matter or the history of the subject, which is of course a big plus....

you know its gonna be a good day when history secrets uploads! very cool collection, hope to see more stuff and updates in the future.

Thanks for the tour. I always learn a few things when I watch your videos 👍 I went and looked at the wound badges I have and I have one of the older ones as well. I never paid much attention before. Also if you put the two side by side you'll see the WWI style badge is rounded and a little smaller while the newer WWII are more of an oval shape and slightly bigger. I also have a piece of the Berghof that I picked up myself back in the late 90s

Wouldn't be surprised if one of the soldiers was attached to an item in your collection and followed you home. Its probably just a harmless spirt though

I always love seeing war memorabilia, even though the history behind them is bad, I just can’t help but see how preserved these pieces are are and how brand new looking they look, it shows that you take very very good care of them

Wow amazing video thank you Nick and i absolutely love your collection it’s incredible and keep up the great work Nick

Great collection my friend. Keep up the great work

Great video and I am happy for you!

Extremely impressive. You have a better collection than many museums.

I’m a new subscriber cause I love history and artifacts. Thank you!

Amazing collection 🙌🙌 thanks for sharing!! I would love to see a video on the ddr helmet and info 😊

Wow what a collection! Thank you for showing us and I love hearing all the stories and provenance behind the items🩵

That jingle sound was creepy!!!! And I would def use one of those stamps on a letter today LOL awesome collection!!!!!

hey nick, massive fan, like huge. you've inspired me so much! I love your video's. you've inspired me to start collecting, i am a massive fan, keep up the amazing content. Don't stop!❤

Your collection is absolutely incredible, just WOW!!! My Opa was in the Wehrmacht in WW2 and he still had his stahlhelm.....the Edelweiss flowers are a great touch, but aren't they more synonymous with the falschirmjägers than the Wehrmacht? They would look great next to that iconic looking falschirmjäger helmet.

Hee Nick door jou ben ik ook begonnen met verzamelen maar ik heb nog lang nooit zo veel mooie spullen zoals jij het verbaast me altijd als ik deze tours weer zie dat je zo veel hebt. Ga zo door

Amazing collection Nick!

So cool to see you collection. Beautiful artifacts 😉

Thanks for the tour. What an excellent collection!

Really appreciate your most historic information!

Damn, I love that original Normandy camouflaged Kriegsmarine helmet, such a nice piece

Love your collection, it seems like you have a bit of everything I.would love to go on one of your re-enactments. careful out there. as you know there are still many mines still out there. Just love your collection, best of luck and be careful.

Loved video very interesting 😊

Amazing collection - great description

wow, what a fantastic collection. Thank you for sharing it.

Another great video Nick.

That is an amazing collection. I had spent 2 years in Germany in the U.S. army but to own any of what you have displayed could land you in jail at the time and that was back in the early 70s. There was a shop in frankfort and I knew the shopkeeper. He had those type of things locked up in his basement. I could buy any thing he had there but like I said to get caught in those days could land yourself in jail.

As a child, I'm interested in WWII. I'm Dutch, and my great-grandfather meets my German great-grandmother in Germany when he was forced to work in Germany. I'm 30 now and still have great interest. Beautiful collection🙌🏼.

9:30 Nick is finding camouflage kriegsmarine helmets left and right! Love the video!

Wow great collection man fantastic

Great collection...i love my German bundeswehr flecktarn pants and parka...i also have the rain gear and a ww2 reproduction parka with a heavy wool inner liner for winter...love all things German my grandparents moved to America right after the war to work..my grandfather fought in German army then fought for America in Korean war..crazy

wow love WW2 Videos and collections and yours is the best ❤

I recently bought myself a shell ejecting airsoft replica of a mouser and I absolutly love it.

Grand video Nick fun fact about the M16 Stalhelm it was based off of a medieval German helmet designed to protect the back of the neck and still give great visibility

You have the coolest collection I have ever seen ! Amazing

I like your collection and knowledge, this makes the video interesting.

I loved your collection. keep going always.

history secrets i love this video . your ww2 german suff is realy cool and ss helmet . keep up the good work😀😀😀😀

I am a bit young but I have loved war history so much I wish I can have something like this when I’m older, I bought a 1940 British helmet when I was in England

Thank you for anthoner part! :D

That’s a lot of really cool historical items

Verry cool!

Would love to see a video about what you like using to best display your items as far as cases, shelves, stands, etc.

I've noticed some repros!! Anyway your collection is realy interesting!! 👍👍

Another excellent video!

I am East German and have only now learned that the typical helmet of the "Nationale Volksarmee" was actually developed in the last days of the Third Reich. Years ago I would have sworn that this helmet is oriented to the Soviet helmet pattern. Super interesting!

An empty Zyklon-B can always commands attention in a WW 2 collection. They have be a vibe that startles viewers every time.

I love the video! I would love to see more elaborate videos about your German field equipment . And how to spot the fakes. :D

Nice collection you have!!!

Went from WW2 historic collection to ghost hunting real quick. You've got haunted items there 😂😘

Super toffe video Zou je een keer een video kunnen maken over hoe je je eigen rantsoenen maakt. Bijvoorbeeld de k-rantsoen of koffie rantsoenen enz.

im a 101st vet and i love your videos. im a collector myself

DAMN NICK I wish I gad your collection as well!!

I've sold off most of my collection, but I'm still keeping my DAK camo and Normandie camo helmets. Also, got a Falmschirmjager gravity knife and a number of Iron crosses. One other item too, but I'm negotiating it for sale.

great vid! very informative also do you ever have any paranormal things happen in that room as i do when i started my collection

So many helmets I can't even find one here in America for under $300 you are one lucky man.

I love how you collect and save history peices.
