Random Cool Video Thread

[Kermit3D]

In the same way as the excellent "Random Cool Photo Thread" created by Smithy, I propose to post here all the cool videos worth sharing.
Yes, this is a thread about videos in the photos section of the forum. If moderators feel that it should be moved to another section, don't hesitate to do so.

To begin, here is an interview with pilots of the 354th Fighter Group dated June 7th 1944.
The video comes from this excellent Youtube channel :

Good choice! Clearly unhappy about night time escort duties - and clearly all knackered!

Note the popularity of the British C Type helmets.
Minor error in the the title when it states ‘Essexshire’ - it should be simply ‘Essex’ (minus the ‘shire’).

Definitely not scripted. The responses are very honest and factual .

This one came on my feed today, surreal to see the silhouettes of the FW and Spit together

Wow!!
Look at the size of that thing !
I can’t imagine the amount of man hours it took to build that model aircraft . The cost of it must be staggering. If that one has a rough landing or worse…. It’s going to be a bad day for someone

The difference between these guys and the Hollywood twinks who play them on the big screen is gigantic, titanic, undescribable. To me they sound like a bunch of work-a-day carpenters talking about a rough job. Beautiful choice of video to start this thread! (I'm on one of my mini-relapses into internet)

Some great footage in this contemporary Swiss film about the beautiful and capable Hawker Hunter.
