"In [----] comedian Jonny Buchardt performed a social experiment at a German festival. After leading the crowd in a series of rhythmic upbeat cheers he suddenly shouted "Sieg" (the first half of a prohibited Nazi greeting.) A large portion of the audience instinctively roared back "Heil". The moment was incredibly awkward because the salute had been banned for decades following the end of WWII. Buchardt broke the stunned silence by joking "So many old comrades here". https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2008998323215290673 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2008998323215290673"

Taylor explained that the sudden shock and stinging from the carbonation would momentarily blind the attacker creating an opening to strike or escape."
