40:45, Johnny Hammond "Les conquistadores chocolates", very surprised to hear that in this doc.!

Interestingly the Imperial forces took slightly less casualties than the Swedes did. It may have been an impressive victory for sweden, but the cost was incredibly high. 6 thousand killed, or wounded, and Gustavus himself among the dead. Wallenstein however, Gustavus' Equal, was not killed during this battle, Though he would ultimately be assassinated not too long afterwards, Because despite his military genius and capabilities, the emperor distrusted him.

I see this on an English TV station , BBC , some told me it’s on national geographic to.

News flash de flesta svalt lilla istiden och allt. Och de måste brytt sig något i och med att svenska centern höll på å kollapsa tills de fick höra att kungen hade dött sen efter det körde de på som in i helvete. Sen att de hade tyska lego soldater är inte heller helt unikt för sin tid Sverige var långt ifrån de ända som använde tyska legosoldater. Rett irriterande hur de försöker hamra in hur onda vi var blablabla. 1600 talet var en pretty fuvking bad time över huvud taget för näst in till alla. Och Gustav Adolf ska ha varit en av de mer skoningsfulla generalerna under kriget. Då andras armer gick bärsack och plundrade massekrerade och våldtog som fan när de tågade igenom landsbygden. Svälten hjälpte inte så mky på den fronten skulle jag tro

11:01 fnittrar/skrattar dem!? respekten finns ju inte kvar...

Why the hell is there some people speaking in Scandinavian and some English annd no subtitles! What a shame

Very nice

🤗🌹🙏

Oh, my god! Were they allowed to shoot so noisily? 🙀🙀🙀🙀🙀🙀👆👆👆👆👆

👍🐺

SovietTeVe - Marx är stolt över er

Napalm in cannon shot...yes!!!

6:15 slaglås bössa på 1600 talet, visste inte att det fans tidsresenärer vid lützen

Heck, for all I know, I could have had distant relatives who went down on that ship (I'm about half Swedish ancestry)...

Great slo-mo of the cannon firing. Like others I came here after watching Drachinifel's recent upload. I would have liked to know what was being said; I thought I knew some Swedish after watching the Swedish Chef on the Muppet Show back in the day, but it seems not...

Worlds first ship made by knekkebrød

Vasa's cannon were 24 pounders, 48 of them They shot cannon balls weighting 24 pounds.

bastante fea salio la fundicion. Muy porosa...especialmente cerca de la boca

Now imagine a full firing broadside of 60 cannons like this all at once...and you´re with them in that cramped wooden hull.

Sweden = land of the sugar boys. That cannon was designed to dominate Denmark, but they put sugar in everything and that’s why Vasa sank with all the mighty cannons and we always beat the shit out of them in soccer.

A video about a ship that couldn't sail - like so many other things produced in Sweden ....

Check out the "Canon ball fired at oak ships hull" or search for the test on the fregat "Jylland". They used one of her own guns firing several shots and a replicated section of her hull in the military training area "Oksboel.

It's great I can translate the comments but I really need subtitles.

It’s a beheading party! Who’s going?!

It is with artillery that war is made. -Nappy Blone A Part

Super great videos and to think they've been here for years and I haven't discovered them before this!

Sounded like Aphex Twin in the background at the start

The cannon is an exact replica of course. It is not often that you see one fired with a full strength charge of powder and an iron cannon-ball as well. The major risk is the fragmented bits of wood & there is no escape on a crowded gun-deck.

I would love to make a scale model of this cannon, in bronze. Are there any drawings or better still stl files available? Great video! English subtitles would be even better.

from Drach also. Need eng subtitiles please. It looks like a great video.

Mycket intressant !

Sea monster....

English subtitles would be very nice. But this is very interesting.

This came up as a recommendation after watching Dracs video yesterday, go figure. The Cannon firing is incredible and the damage mortifying just as described in Dracs video. Our forefathers must have had balls the size of those cannon balls to stand and receive fire from a cannon.

If possible, please could you make a version of this with English subtitles, as unfortunately, I don't speak Swedish. I came here thanks to Drachinifel's latest video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oq90qJp_tbLGp5c.html

Drachinifel sent me.

And they fired an antique gun with a service charge 😎 awesome

1:40 is about the money shot 😛

Unfortunately I can speak about 3 words Swedish but the canons look impressive

Someone please translate to english.....and how many of us are here because of Drac.

Pity I DON`T speak Swedish! Fascinating non the less. Thanks Vasa (AND Drach!).

just wish there were subtitles for this

Tänk om några av våra förfäder var där? Då skall man verkligen visa respekt

They should be returned to there homeland not left in 51 plastic tubs.

you miss alot because no subs, thats why dislikes.

Anyone from my school here ?

English subtitles please! A few here are my ancestors

Swedish sounds like English, sort of.

Swedish television is a communist and an anti-Swedish television. In the Swedish army, it was basically only Swedes, only a small part were Finns if you are to call them that because Finland was Sweden at the time. For example, at the battle of Breitenfeld, the Swedish army consisted of 24,000 men, while the Saxons had 18,000 men. The reason that the Swedish army was so feared and strong was that they took farmers and other people from the same county or those who had farms close to each other. You got a trust and a morale that was very important and so it was psychological. Now I do not know where these were broadcast if it was anti-Swedish svt or anti-Swedish TV 4 ... they never deny themselves. I do not deny that there were Germans with us because we were allies with them. but in the Swedish army it was only Swedes. This is a lie like no other. I myself am very interested in Sweden's history and have then researched a lot in this subject and read on and also got hold of scrolls.

Svensk tv är en kommunistiskt och en Svenskfientlig television. I den svenska armen så var det i stort sett bara Svenskar endast en liten del var finnar om man nu ska kalla dom för det eftersom Finland var Sverige på den tiden. Till exempel vid slaget i breitenfeld så bestod den Svenska armen av 24. 000 man, medans saxarna hade 18. 000 man. Anledningen att den svenska armen var så fruktad och stark va att man tog bönder och annat folk ifrån samma län eller dom som hade gårdar nära varandra. Man fick en tillit och en moral som var mycket viktig och så var det psykologiskt. Nu vet jag inte vart de här sändes om det va svenskfientliga svt eller svenskfientliga tv 4... dom förnekar sig aldrig. Att det fanns tyskar med förnekar jag inte eftersom vi va allierade med dom. men i den svenska armen så var det enbart svenskar. Det här är en lögn utan dess like. Jag själv är väldigt intresserad av sveriges historia och har då forskat en hel del inom det här ämnet och läst på och även fått tag i skriftrullar.
