[Silver_Dragon 411]

International Business Times release a interview of the mystery man behind of one of the more universal memes / parodies of the history, the Fuhrer's Downfall.

Wow! You have no idea just how close this thread came to being locked immediately, based solely on the thread's topic title! :Whew:

 

Fortunately, I took the time to actually follow the link and read the IBT article and discovered that it is a history of the meme, and not just a link to the original vulgar video.

 

NOTA BENE: I made a slight edit to the topic's title to make this point clear.

As usual, the Press cannot get aircraft right:

I've seen the format from Downfall dozens of times. After reading the article, I find it strange that the original was created for Flight Sim enthusiasts! (And that the English version is gone, is also strange)

 

Good read.

Why am I not surprised the original meme started with a Flight Simulator guy. We are probably the most frustrated genre in the gaming/simulation market with huge anticipations that lead to bad Flight Sim releases or major delays that lead to the rare gems. What a clever way to air your grievances and he started a huge phenomena in the process.

I think you may have posted this in the wrong thread, it's way off topic!!

Probably, but as it was featured on the same original link I thought it may be included here.
