White Death

The job of a sniper may seem simple on the surface, just line up a shot and shoot, right? Technically, you're not wrong. But factor in the freezing temperature, the hours of patience of waiting for the moment, the complete lack of any scopes or modern equipment, the intensity of your nerves knowing the fact that if you miss your shot, you lose your life. Now repeat that task 5 times in a matter of minutes, and the task isn't as straightforward anymore.

Simo Häyhä was a Finnish military sniper in the Second World War. He had over 500 confirmed kills during the Winter War, the highest number of kills by one man in any major war, earning him the nickname of 'White Death'. This story is an inaccurate short reinterpretation of one of his many missions out in the battlefield, where he often killed up to 25 men in one day.
