Стрелял только сверху вниз, с отвесной скалы. «Эдельвейс» не доставал его...

A hunter from Altai, finding himself in the Carpathians, stopped an entire battalion of Edelweiss mountain rangers without firing a single unnecessary shot. The Germans nicknamed him "Grif" and were never able to take the high ground—because he didn't shoot according to the rules, but by instinct, a feeling he'd had in his hands since childhood. This video tells the true story of sniper Petr Todoshev, who lived on a sheer wall for 44 days and taught the enemy to look at the sky. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🕒 Timestamps 00:00 — Vulture over a Carpathian Gorge 08:36 — A Hunter from Altai and Grandfather's Lessons 20:03 — First Shots and Shell Casings on a Rock 34:22 — Hauptmann Gruber Goes Hunting 44:23 — Night Rise and Meeting on the Wall 55:51 — Last Shot and the German Departure ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📚 Sources 1.
