Yet another reason why I'm proud to be Finnish. Greetings from Finland.

you know you're a true warrior when people are still talking about your accolades in the battlefield 70 years later

Its crazy how much he did, what he went through and never died. From eating just bread and sugar, eating snow. Burying himself in snow. Not using a scope. Getting shot in the face, And still after that, got death threats from the people he saved. True warrior, and hero. RIP, Simo, rest in peace, and history.

Thank you for going more in depth about The White Death. Seriously, this guy is a legend for SEVERAL reasons!

[Xbash]

Simo the one person they had to call a artillery strike to kill him and it didn’t even work what a legend

[MisterBlaargh]

500+ confirmed sniper kills, unknown amount of smg kills(estimated 200+). Dude wasn't messing around.

Can we please have a movie about this man's amazing life story. 🙏

[chintanpatel]

I have heard about him and also read, this guy was insanely amazing

[neotsi]

I live in Finland and it's cool that people talk about someone cool character from my country. Häyhä also never 100% surely confirmed his kill count but easily over 500 kills he got

[CuriositySp]

I'm so happy to be Finnish! Sending greetings from Finland!

The trees speak Vietnamese
The dead speak Russian
The sand speaks Arabic
The guns speak English
The gas speak german
And the snow speaks Finnish

Be Amazed should tell more stories, they're great to listen to after a long day of work and school

It's always interesting to learn about history. And it't great that this channel has really versatile content. Good work

In Gundam 0079, Amuro Ray's RX-78-2 Gundam was nicknamed "The White Devil" by Zeon forces. After seeing that anime many years ago, I researched the name and eventually learned about the GOAT sniper himself.

Wow what an amazing story of Simo’s life! The first I’ve heard of him and you told his story brilliantly! To use so little and help his country 👏. Ofc it’s horrific that he had to live his later years with death threats from the people he helped to continue their way of life is just disgusting

This guy needs more recognition!!? There should be a movie made about this guy!!?? Dude sniped over 500 soldiers!!!?? No other sniper probably even cones close to his #!!?? How is it snipers like Carlos Hathcock, and chris kyle r well known but this guy isnt!!?? And this dude did it with an old mosin nagant M28/30 without a scope and could pop off 16 shots accurately in 1 min....at a target 500 feet away...while having to reload his gun 4 times in process!!?? And he still managed to be insanely accurate!!?? And with a nickname like "the white death" this dude should be more well known and there needs to be a movie made about his life!!?? His story is Crazy & he deserves to be more well known for what he did!!??

[misstammy]

wow man i d'ont think there will be a sniper like this anymore

Your video editing skills are top-notch, it enhances your content greatly.

A legend who returned to peaceful, quiet life after the war: Like a true finn he didn't brag about his achievements but did his job the best he could. Counter snpers, artillery trikes, nothing helped the enemy until a single lucky shot. And even that didn't stop him permanently.
