Grim figures on WWII Deaths

Fast becoming a memory of years of our grandfathers, this video gives the staggering human figures in deaths in WWII and the follow-out of that war. Particulary staggering is the cost of human life in the Russian/German front (around the 5 min. mark). Also I didn't know we are in the period known as the "Long Peace" (14 min. mark) due to the impact of WWII.
