Sabaton History
Published on 15 Aug 2019One of the deadliest snipers ever to roam the face of the earth was Simo Häyhä, who fought on the Finnish side during the Winter War in 1939 and 1940. He was also known as White Death, as he killed an estimated 500 Russians in the cold snowy winter.

This episode is one of the most frequently requested songs for Sabaton History. And while the story of Simo Häyhä is a compelling story, the Winter War was about much more than the deadliest sniper of World War Two. We have made an earlier episode about the Winter War, based on the Sabaton Song “Talvisota”, which is Finnish for Winter War. You can watch that right here: https://youtu.be/6grVeu3EWis. If after that, you’re keen to dive even deeper into the history of the Winter War, I suggest you check out Indy’s World War Two channel, where he covered the Winter War (and everything before and after that) week by week. You can check that out right here: https://www.youtube.com/c/worldwartwo
