The end of History
81 views • 6/18/2023
The time I heard there were no more History lessons with Helena and Anders
| 00:00 - 00:03 | ..coming back from Moscow, |
| 00:04 - 00:05 | we must rush through |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | the retreat operation |
| 00:08 - 00:12 | and make haste toward Berlin. |
| 00:12 - 00:15 | History will end juuust here. |
| 00:17 - 00:19 | No worries, there's time |
| 00:19 - 00:21 | We can do it in the fall |
| 00:24 - 00:26 | Dear teacher... |
| 00:27 - 00:28 | The kids... |
| 00:31 - 00:33 | The kids are going to Bali to attend Green School |
| 00:34 - 00:36 | There are no more lessons |
| 00:53 - 00:58 | I will need a moment to handle this. Give me a second and close the door. |
| 01:13 - 01:15 | This is unheard of! |
| 01:15 - 01:17 | We had such plans for the future! |
| 01:18 - 01:23 | We were going to spend hours sticking arrows to the map |
| 01:25 - 01:28 | I was willing to do a special on tanks |
| 01:29 - 01:31 | Anders would have loved it! |
| 01:31 - 01:34 | We could have talked about the end of the SS |
| 01:34 - 01:37 | We were still in the middle of the African campaign |
| 01:37 - 01:40 | With their pointless back and forth |
| 01:40 - 01:42 | My teacher, the kids chose this... |
| 01:42 - 01:46 | We had not even STARTED Pearl Harbor |
| 01:46 - 01:48 | My teacher, it was never just you |
| 01:48 - 01:52 | How are they going to learn about ships made of ice? |
| 01:53 - 01:54 | Or the floating brewery? |
| 01:56 - 01:57 | You think it's a game |
| 01:57 - 02:00 | But history is long and boring and full of facts |
| 02:00 - 02:03 | It takes a special kind of crazy just to read it all |
| 02:04 - 02:08 | And then find the bits that actually make sense |
| 02:08 - 02:13 | I'm still haunted by my promise to talk about the Ottomans |
| 02:14 - 02:16 | It's just so darn complicated |
| 02:17 - 02:21 | They all had the same name as this one Turkish guy in Tallinn! |
| 02:27 - 02:29 | Don't even get me started |
| 02:30 - 02:34 | on the history of art. I know it was |
| 02:34 - 02:36 | Helena's most loved subject |
| 02:41 - 02:42 | We could have... |
| 02:43 - 02:47 | For all its size and glory and expensive ticket prices |
| 02:48 - 02:53 | Taken a chance on visiting KuMu |
| 02:54 - 02:56 | There's a great exhibition on |
| 02:56 - 02:59 | Soviet socialist realism |
| 03:00 - 03:02 | The gnarliest and most realistic art style |
| 03:04 - 03:07 | It's okay, you can still go there |
| 03:14 - 03:16 | I guess I have to take it as it is |
| 03:19 - 03:23 | Just have one giant arrow-sticking session |
| 03:25 - 03:26 | At least try to |
| 03:31 - 03:33 | The trick is to try |
| 03:40 - 03:46 | We will finish the campaign to Moscow and the inevitable retreat |
| 03:46 - 03:49 | And try to stick as many arrows as possible |
| 03:53 - 03:56 | ...before Jaanipäev. |
