During the 4-year battle (1914-18) for Vauquois Hill, about 14,000 soldiers lost their lives along this tiny portion of the Western front, 500 meters long. • 519 explosions of mines were recorded (199 German, 320 French). As mines chambers were dug deeper and deeper, mines were loaded with increasing amounts of explosives: up to 60 tons ! • Vauquois Hill is a huge termites’ nest: about 17 km of galleries and 184 rooms in the German underground barracks; about 5 km of galleries under the French lines. • Filmed with a Phantom 3 drone in December 2016. • Music - B - Somber Ballads by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution licence (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...) • Artist: http://incompetech.com/
