Was Britain's Thermopylae really fought over a tennis court? What happened in Canada during the invasion of Winnipeg? How did the Night Witches terrify and torment the Axis? Was Hitler actually sent to spy on the Nazis by the army? Who was the schoolgirl who helped win the Battle of Britain? Truth, they say, is the first casualty of war. You will have to decide how many such casualties occur in this book, the third in the Weird War series. Amber rooms worth a fortune, the spear that pierced Christ's side, deadly female snipers and Lucille Ball's spooky teeth, it's all here for the discerning buff of 1939-45. Whether it's official Nazi propaganda dreamed up by Josef Goebbel's Ministry of Enlightenment or the 'scuttlebutt' of the US navy; tall stories from the officers' mess or attempts to escape from the grim reality of total war, the Second World War provides a fascinating glimpse into the mindset and ingenuity of a generation. Have we now exhausted our supply of weirdness? With new information coming to light all the time from the classified archives in the corridors of power, we wouldn't bet on it!

YouTube is one website that can truly be considered a ‘game-changer'. Before now, the only people you saw on your screen were the professionals, people paid to say their piece to camera. Then one day everything changed - ANYONE could record a video and share it with the rest of the world. As this model no longer relied on viewing figures, the variety of content available increased exponentially, with people all over the planet filming whatever it was that pleased them, rather than the advertisers. There are some amazing videos to see, the best of which could easily be considered the Citizen Kanes of the 21st century. Then there are those videos which you reach at the end of a click marathon, and even though you don't know why you’re still watching, you can’t bring yourself to look away. This collection presents you with thirty videos that sit firmly in both categories: the cream of the crop of the weirdest videos on YouTube. Be warned, though… once you have seen these clips, you can never un-see them. They will remain imprinted on your consciousness for evermore, fodder for your strangest dreams and your worst nightmares. Dare you watch them? A link is provided to each video within the list, so you’ll need an online connection and a device capable of playing video to make best use of this book.
