Pro West video

Starfish prime was detonated over the polar icecaps with intent to discover whether or not it would destroy the world. Not just to see what would happen.

Lol I though it was called the Cold War because it was in Russia

Here's a fact: In the 70s, America spent 12 million dollars on designing and building a pen that could write in space. The Soviets, however, found it much more simple and much cheaper to just use a pencil. A frickin pencil. Seriously, US, it was that simple.

I could be wrong but you're condescending somewhat sarcastic way of speaking makes me think that you're a Canadian.

Fact 18 must be where Perry the Platypus came from

Okay, child... there's being informative and non-committal, but there's also a well known concept of working people up to the speed of your speech to incite un-realities and cover your efforts... Can you name the Germans who are most associated with this practice?

Is every Western Leader this kid dislike a drug addict?

Some information is kinda left out to show the evil side of soviet union when you are teaching history first teaching should be to not be biased to one side

The Cold War was basically
USA vs Soviet Union.
The UK was just there helping the US lol. Most the other European countries didn't do much until the Korean War, but then again it's not the UK did much either. They did help the USA in espionage and nuclear weapons programs buts kinda it

Some of these are just wrong.

Cold War is better described as war without direct confrontation. There was armed conflict, Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, bay of pigs, etc but Americans and Soviets were not attacking each other directly.

well we can tell the bbc and the usa are not worried about leaning left now are they.

The USA is evil

I never thought I would have anything in common with the government.but wow what a coincidence.I also have given a few bears some acid and had them test out my seat.what a crazy world

USA: Let's destroy the moon to prove how dominant we are.

हमें धोखा न दिया जाए

My grandmother had her blood type tattooed on her as a child and she lived in IL. 🤷‍♂️

The USA and the USSR did end up teaming up on the race to the moon. There’s rare video tapes that’s proves it but I guess you could just say it’s a “conspiracy”

I do pay taxes in the USA and I do find it funny that the cat got hit by a car

Talked too fast and quick about some interesting points. Slow down and give some details holy moly!

Hail communist

1:44 is this channel Canadian? He says i’ern ker’n like a Canadian

I’m pretty sure Russia would have flown/attacked USA directly from east to west and vice versa for the Americans. I doubt they’d have travelled over Western Europe

U Guys should make an episode about the central park 5

Flight double 07
*spy plane*

Ww1 and ww2 and cold war ..
Were all results of American Mekinnder FOREIN policy.

Well modern Usa is half comunist itself.Usa was scared that Russia will gain control over the entire World.
Ideology has nothing to do with it.
Americans called Joseph Stalin Uncle Joe.And took his daughter and gave her a house in Usa.His granddaughter lives in USA. A blonde chick that loves skateboards and has 2 tatoos.But also has Joseph's Georgian nose

Even though the bears did live through the tests they where killed for autopsy short after the tests to check internal organs. :( poor bears

Yea, you forgot the two atrocities that happened in Cambodia from the Comms, and the other in East Timor by the Caps/America 😓

So you are saying we need rodents in the TSA.

Olston was pushed.

no 14 on korean air get the fact right... soviet said that the flight is changing route over soviet military base

2:26 Superman isn’t dead!

There is a fact that in 1945 there was a plan called operation unthinkable proposed by Winston Churchill to pushed to the Soviet forces out of Eastern Europe but it was cancelled because British and american forces were outnumbered by the soviet forces at Europe in that time.

Umm...Mao?

Ok let's just say they are all evil equally

This is so poorly edited -_- ... You have Kruschev saying Mao's line in the swimming pool scene, & for #26, you have the Soviet guy who defected to Canada with Soviet secrets saying in his speech bubble that "Canada has massive bombs" when you, in fact, stated that the Soviets were the ones who supposedly had the massive bombs...

10:18 He Don't Use it. He really is

Why bears? Of all test animals, why choose bears. I mean chimpanzees would much more practical and there were no animal rights then. I guess that only choose bears because Russia loved them.

Wisner is a hero

Is nobody gonna point out that mao is supposedly the one that can’t swim and Nikita can at 4:24?!?

The Commies Did Want To Take Over The World

You didn’t mention the fact that the nuclear codes for the US were kept at 000000 for decades

The bread could have also been from old moldly grain.. there have been stories in history about people having same thing.

The second war facts video with condoms being mentioned at number one

Do they not pronounce the letter "t" in whatever country the speaker comes from? "Cur-in." "Ee-in." It just sounds wrong.
