Rise of the Third Reich

Blowing Up History: Nazi Super Bombs (1x9)

:

Real bombs blow an entire neighborhood to smithereens when NGC recreates the London blitz of WWII. High-speed cameras, operating at 1,000 frames per second, capture blasts - fragments traveling almost 10 times the speed of sound move in slow motion and waves of fire roll through the street. Then, commemorating its 70th anniversary, intimate testimonies from survivors reveal what it was like to live through the bombings, never knowing whether your friends and family were dead or alive.
