Lieutenant General Kuribayashi often fought by building an 18km underground tunnel instead of using special suicide bombs, out of respect for his subordinates.

[lolitzdefaltboy]

The fact Japanese never surrendered and fough till the last man is insane

[joshuaremo]

This is like one of the few battles where the ratio was skewed against the US in the Pacific theater. Kuribashi and Japan fought smart and to near the last man.

[Samgar]

Wow USA lost 20, 000-30, 000 soldier this battle and Japanese never surrendered nice video love from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿❤🇯🇵🇺🇸

Remember casualties doesn’t mean all dead. It means the injured as well

[ram_sankar]

The point was to make Americans pay. And it was done. It'd be even larger if some of the officers under the Japanese commander decide to not do a suicide charge against the Commander's orders, reducing the defending side's numbers.

[lisacoffman]

The US casualties in this are way off, like more than double. Total casualties for the US were around 25, 000 of which 6140 were killed... Japanese lost around 19000 killed and rest were captured or never found.

It was easy to understand, from Japan

[Hadesthief]

The last Japanese troops on Iwo Jima surrendered 4 years later.

Hey can u tell me how u animate this videos?

[srujan]

Gen. Kuribayashi did well with what he had.

[Roflikk]

Numbers are completely wrong US lost about 6000 man and another 17000 wounded thats 23 000 (+3000 navy) total and Japan lost 18 000 man (7500 navy).

[edwardfreeman]

Reckon you could do this with Peleliu too?

[spaceman]

Figures are incorrect. 5, 931 dead and missing, 17, 272 wounded for USA

[CatfoodChronicles]

“Ah yes, I heard of a bomb being blown there!”
-Me if I had never discovered HOI4

[luismartincagnonemendez]

Pa en las películas y documentales te dicen que murió un americano y era puerto riqueño

[rbxless]

I love how we hear about this battle so much in school and in movies, but not about the Battle of Kursk which left 1M dead.

[davidclark]

Where did you get the casualty figures? These are off by nearly 100%

[sylvantomb]

According to most sources the US casualties were 25, 000 to 26, 000 with 6, 000 to 7, 000 killed. So with that being said. Why did you put 53, 000 US casualties? How did you get that number?

[webstars]

The closer we got to Japan, the more intense the fighting became. It was the opposite of Europe. And there were 5 million intact soldiers waiting in Japan. Over 10, 000 islands. Iwo Jima is a really small island!There were only nuclear weapons.
