Stefano Illing. Italian first name, Austrian surname. No name is more fitting for someone to be a curator of the Lagazuoi open Museum.
Battle of Hoth ( improved version )
This dramatically shows the insanity that prevailed during the war.
I am Australian and have had Great Uncles and distant cousins that fought in WW1 , though on the weekend I was helping my GF clean out her mother's Garage and back she'd. In the clean up we found pictures of her Great Uncles in uniform of the Alpini. Proud and forever lost, he died. I'd love to find out where he served and died . I have looked up my uncle's service records through the Australian War Memorial, how would I find hers? She though born in Australia can read Italian. I spent ages looking at these amazing photos as us war nerds do.
You can tell when someone is acclimated to the cold... Indy is not :D
Stefano Illing is an amazing guy, I had the honour and pleasure to meet him.
Imagine the people who fought here in the mountains.Cold, hungrywolves, wind, snow, rock schrapnle when shooting pieces of rocks, imagine it all.Especially for the Italians who got Luigi Cadorna as general.
behold! the Great Indy Khan. King of the Golden Horde. all hail the great Khan
Very interesting episode. I have climbed Lagazuoi multiple times and can attest to how difficult it is to climb this mountain, let alone with kilograms of heavy equipment. It is hard to imagine that such a beautiful place was once the frontline during a very ugly war.
Meh I could handle war on this front. My feet were cold during the whole video and I only needed two pairs of socks and a blanket to make it through!
I’m windy neidel 🌞🌞🌚🌝
a nome degli italiani, questo canale tributa i giusti onori a un fronte (quello italiano) ritenuto soprattutto all'estero minore, parlandone come merita....... Grazie
I won't be coming home
This is truly a forgotten front of The Great War. The incredible efforts required just to live in the environment boggle the mind. Add modern offensive and defensive combat to the equation and the results become nearly fantasy. The evidence is undeniable - thank you for revealing this incredible chapter of this tragic human era.
It defies belief to think people actually fought in those conditions. Great video Indy and crew.
Most insane warfare ever. Indy and crew, you're doing a magnificent work. Simply de best KZread channel.
Hope Indy buys a simple drone once, could be really cool for those specials!
Fantastic episode, guys.
That is a very nice hat. As a collector of hats I approve very much.
is that edelweiss on your hat? sod fighting that high up! those Italians were some extra hard dudes. Indy is breathless just talking in the cold altitude... let alone fighting.
