When the Germans Almost Killed Winston Churchill

In March 1945, as the war in Europe neared its end, Winston Churchill—seventy years old and still every inch the soldier—stood on a ruined bridge over the Rhine while German shells crashed dangerously close. “Winston Churchill – Nearly Killed by the Germans in 1945” tells the gripping true story of how Britain’s wartime leader came within seconds of death on the front line. Drawing on eyewitness accounts and Churchill’s own words, this film explores his fearless, almost reckless need to experience battle firsthand, revealing a man driven by courage, ego, and an unshakable belief that a leader must share the dangers of war.
