No dispute or difference of opinion.
The director of the Panzer Museum Munster has issued a correction to Mark Felton's video.
In the video by Mark Felton there are false statements....

Oddly, enough, I'd been saving the Felton video for later, as a treat, so to speak. :| Generally, Mark's presentations appear well-researched, articulate, and are populated by impressive non-mainstream film clips, and photos. I think many here would probably agree. Thus, it is a surprise that he should somehow forget the details in his own video on the 'Frankentiger', and the story behind its creation. :problem:
Ach, well, I guess we all have our aberrations from time to time. :crazy: :D
As an alternative diversion, I might watch 'Pantilov's 28' on Youtube- one of an astonishing array of free Russian WW2 flicks on Youtube.
Perhaps the sequel will be Putin's 'Ukraine'... :shh:

There’s a lot of people who don’t like Felton, believing that he often lifts topics from forums, in some cases lifting dialogue verbatim without crediting…

I’m on the fence…

Glad I'm not the only one who feels like I'm having a wikipedia page read back to me while I'm watching his video's...

If you don't reference your research then your a story teller not a historian.

I do like the WW2 footage he shows. However I always take “historic narrative” with a grain of salt and a shot glass.

Indeed, and in a boring voice too… :D

:D , Well, I did write '...appear well-researched...' :)
Incidentally, and to be helpful, there's no apostrophe in videos (video's)- not unless it's a contraction, as in: "This video's boll**ks!", or the possessive case: "The video's content is doubtful". :eh:
Yes, the voice is something of a yawn; but at least it's an articulate yawn. :D
Coherent speech is an ever-increasing rarity these days.
Utter twaddle delivered with 'vocal fry', though, is worse than waterboarding :lolno: @)

Now what's plastic here, the Tiger or the frog with the famous large derriere?
