Real video of the battleship Bismarck firing its guns at the battlecruiser HMS Hood. You can see how the british shots raise columns of water near the Bismarck, turn up the volume and you can heard them. In the last seconds of the video you can see the column of smoke left by the explosion of HMS Hood next to the retiring battleship HMS Prince of Wales. The video was filmed from the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen, in the Battle of the Denmark Strait, 24 may 1941. - Bundesarchive #video #videooftheday
