HOOK (first 3 seconds spoken):
Soviet soldiers would intentionally attach fishing hooks to their grenades

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FULL SCRIPT:
Soviet soldiers would intentionally attach fishing hooks to their grenades before going into battle during World War II. They did this because the Nazis covered the windows with metal grates, causing normal grenades to bounce back. That's why they fitted the grenades with fishing hooks, allowing them to catch on the grates and blow up the enemy squad.
