    It's incredible how drugs played such a pivotal role in WWII. The Blitzkrieg wouldn't have been the same without Pervitin
  • @JohnWick-el9yw
    Instead of sleeping they would continue going for days with no sleep covering more ground and going crazier. Just imagine the comedown though?? What goes up must come down
  • @HappyG1lmor488
    Fun fact: Almost every country's military's airmen were on some sort of upper, this isn't unique to Germany.
  • @AdmiralKoneko

  • @Daflux84
    Don't do amphetamines sure you'll stay awake for days no problem but when you finally catch sleep you sleep for days you crash And psychologically you will definitely go crazy You need sleep Stay healthy people

    There is a story, and I don't know whether it's true or not, that after Morrel left Berlin, Hitler's guards tore around the city, breaking into pharmacies to try and find supplies of medications for their boss
  • @tenzinalexander
    Simple History did an animation telling the story about that Finnish soldier oding and surviving, you gotta see it - its much more detailed and a freakin insane (and hilarious) story!
  • @DrRedpanda
    Thanks for updating another perfect video. I never realized how big of a role drugs played in WWII. It seems like the zombie soldiers in some games aren't too far off from reality. I also have a small history channel and I hope everyone can check it out and give me some feedback so I can improve myself.

    We still use stimulants with our stealth pilots during the Iraq war and you don't "trip" on pervitin, that's hallucinogens
  • @Samuel42069
    it was not that effective how some think. lot of the soldiers were delirious from lack of sleep and some didnt sleep for days or slept like few hours (around 3) hours for months (if lucky) until getting killed
  • @UnseenHawk778
    I didn’t know drugs played such a key role in the war. Learn something new everyday, huh.
