Life of a Kamikaze
It's April 12th, 1945, and Nine Mitsubishi G4M Betty bombers and their escort of A6M Zero fighters soar over the East China Sea. In the leading bomber, Lieutenant Saburo Dohi puts on his oxygen mask and lies back on his makeshift cot, breathing deeply. His mind is focused on one thing: the new secret weapon held in the bowels of the Betty, a weapon the Japanese hope will change the course of the war. The Yokosuka MXY-7 Ohka was the chariot of the Thunder Gods. Volunteer pilots who would give everything for Japan. We try to lift the veil on the life of these young pilots. To try and understand their training and their friendships and to explore why they would strive to make the ultimate sacrifice. To find out more on the Thunder Gods check out the great book by Dan King, 'Blossoms From the Sky' which was one of the sources we used for this video. The Ohka was used successfully by Saburo Dohi when he hit the destroyer Mannert L. Abele causing it to split in half and subsequently sink.
