"AaaAAAAaaaahLright I'm Johnny" is oddly satisfying to hear at the end of each video.
Can't explain, it just is.

Ah, Lieutenant Gruber's "little tank", Hubert Jr. :)

[luddite]

So glad you showed its appearance in " 'Allo 'Allo! " where the rather camp Lt. Gruber referred to it as his "Liddle Tank". Drive on, Clarence!

For me this is most iconic for being "Gruber's little tank" from the amazing series "Allo allo"

Hey Johnny. Just wanted to say that you're sounding a lot better here and I really enjoyed the video. I'm sorry about the implication I made on the Johnson rifle video and I hope you're doing alright. Thank you for working on these videos and letting us learn about these weapons and vehicles in real life and film.

I always loved how angular and bulky this thing looks. The big wheel hanging off the side looks crazy.

[GravesRWFiA]

So glad to see lots of footage from 'allo 'allo where we regularly are told about Lt. Grueber's 'little tank'

I did the research for you guys- four 222s still exist, but only one in the states- at the American heritage museum in Hudson mass. The 222 Ausf B there was captured in north Africa and actually played a role in the movie A bridge too far. (you're welcome)

I had this as a micro machine as a kid. It was my favorite.

[BenjaminSpringer-zh]

This has been one of my favorite vehicles for the last 20 years. I was afraid that it never existed before seeing this video. This video means allot. The vehicle has been respected greatly in my head for two decades.

The Sd.Kfz. 222 in "The Keep" is the same one in the "Allo Allo" series. It's now in a british little war museum.

The Soviet counterpart, BA-64, is still in active service with North Korea's People Worker-Peasant Red Guards militia.

Built this from the Tamiya 1/35 scale kit ages ago. Have another one - and its brother - in the "to build" stack right now. Thanks for a great reference video.

[somebody-tr]

Thanks for all your amazing videos on very specific history I love them all so much you are my favorite youtuber an I watch like 40 channels

[SuperBROKEN]

I miss COH1. That was awesome that you put it in there.

[Ribeirasacra]

Clips from Allo, Allo is a pleasant surprise.

Very good video. At a casual glance most people wouldn’t have notice the photo of the 222 in KMT service was actually Chinese as the Chinese used the German M35 helmet as well. The blue sky with white sun emblem gave it away. it was a great photograph which I hadn’t seen before.
