    Bloody Omaha - recreated by 3 guys

    This is quite impresive. I normally wouldn't post links as undoubtedly they will get slated but thought this was worth a watch.

    The Omaha battle (ie the one at the start of saving private ryan) re-inacted by 3 graphic designers and some skills.

    Wasn't this on here the other day/last week - I've seen it and I'm sure the link came from here. Could be wrong though and it wouldn't be the first time
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    That looked pretty impressive. Shame I couldn't watch it with sound at work.

    This was made for a Timewatch documentary - I actually watched it via iPlayer, and I was most disappointed that it was about the battle, not the making of a recreation by 3 guys

    However, the documentary itself was bloody excellent If they have it available again and you have an interest in such things, I would advise that you watch it!

    I feel kind of let down now that it was just music over the video. I was expecting some kind of interesting mini-documentary.

    My apologies, after trawling around the net it can be difficult remembering where you've seen something.
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?
