It's pretty interesting. Basically:
In 2021, construction crews in Exeter dug up an undetonated 1,000 kg (2,200 lb) German bomb from the Second World War. The bomb couldn't be defused, and so had to be detonated on-site.
Despite extensive efforts to limit the damage, many buildings were badly damaged in the city. Insurance companies didn't pay out due to typical policy exclusions for warfare. The British government refused to pay as well, so the property owners got screwed and had to fund their own repairs.

This is the ideal Nazi body. You may not like it, but this is what peak national socialism looks like.

It was more his connections that saw him become Hitler's no. 2 especially with the Junker class.

He was actually a good pilot, he even took command of Flying Circus after Red Baron died.

Göring went from renowned War hero to corrupt self-indulgent nazi b-word. During the course of WW2 he became more concerned with military uniforms and the paintings he and his dealers were stealing from occupied territories than actually managing the Luftwaffe.

he was managing a lot more than just Luftwaffe, starting as prime minister of Prussia (which actually was more than half of Germany at the time), later becoming "field marshal of 4 year plan" and owner of Reichwerke Hermann Goering (major steel company build from confiscated factories in Germany and newly occupied territories. And yes he did name it after himself).
I'd say he was more prideful and greedy than just corrupt, even if it led to him surrounding himself with corrupt asslickers. Close to a cartoon villain who unironically though he deserved everything in the world.

There is something very Sam Hyde-esque about becoming the top ranking Nazi and just becoming an obese drug addicted lunatic

Did Felton manage to get through this video without seething about how Americans are somehow responsible?

He comes out absolutely frothing at the mouth sometimes. Like anything in WW2 in the Pacific, it's always some anglophobe conspiracy by Stilwell and King, it's not British incompetence. (Or as Stillwell and King would correctly tell you, Churchill intentionally sabotaging the war effort so Britain is in a better position postwar.

Not sure. Though I think I would rather trust Royal Navy demolition teams over the R*pe Blob.
