Even more impressive than his voice are his comments. Hitler is obviously extremely worried about the output of Soviet tanks and fighting in two fronts, and note that this is the Summer of 1942, Stalingrad and Normandy are yet to happen. Unaware that he was being recorded, we can see that Hitler was way more worried that he admitted publicly. Who knows, maybe intimately he understood much earlier that the war was going to be lost...
As a German, i have heard this recording a few times. It is extremly eerie to hear him talk like a normal person. Like a neighbour. His Austrian accent is almost unnoticeable, his speech could easily pass as High German for someone not paying attention. Also, his choice of words, his pronunciation is almost modern. Not "old fashioned" as you would expect someone to talk in the 1930s or -40s. And to think that this is HIM. Having a random conversation. An i am sitting here, in Germany, listening to it on an American Website decades later... it is insane how history works.
I was thinking the same thing. Now he’s screaming in hell. I hate for anyone to be in hell, even Hitler, but so is the fate of anyone who refuses God’s free gift of salvation through Jesus’ work on the cross… “For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.” -John 3:17
@@stephensmith777 hell doesn't really make sense since God would be punishing people before they have their trial. Even today we would call that wrong. It makes more sense that we will be punished after judgement for what we did if not saved by Christ.
Guess I should have shared the whole verse (John 3:13-21): “No one has ever gone to heaven and returned. But the Son of Man has come down from heaven. And as Moses lifted up the bronze snake on a pole in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, so that everyone who believes in him will have eternal life. “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him. “There is no judgment against anyone who believes in him. But anyone who does not believe in him has already been judged for not believing in God’s one and only Son. And the judgment is based on this fact: God’s light came into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil. All who do evil hate the light and refuse to go near it for fear their sins will be exposed. But those who do what is right come to the light so others can see that they are doing what God wants.”
I don't think the deepness, was his actual voice, rather a distortion of the sound. Mind that the recording was in another room, and also that old recordings can sound distorted. Maybe the recording picked up the underlying bass of his voice, so it sounds deeper.
@@AJ-on-youtube - somebody else replied with the same idea, not that unlikely considering the equipment. For some reason I prefer to believe that it's his real voice.
Are we listening to the same recording? He is lamenting and questioning the current path of the war, how the USSR had such an enormous amount of materiel and wishing someone could have warned him 😂 not exactly calm unless you were expecting the stereotypical Hitler yelling and screaming.
@@onikwahe is saying that is calm in his speaking. Not that he is speaking about chill themes, like the weather. You can speak calmly even about dramatic themes.
Got to be an audio artifact, it sounds like when you use a vouce changer or when you downspeed a recording to get something akin to Bane from Dark Knight Rises. If it deteriorated over time or if if they used a phonograph it might have been at half speed. At least record players from the 70's had that abiility, I don't know about the early 40's. But it's unnaturally deep though, first thing I noticed, like it was a demon speaking 🤣
@@Italianlad69 If you listen to the other guy in the same recording, he sounded normal, so Hitler just generally had a low, oddly demonic sounding voice. It's not difficult to see how he got where he got. An imposing voice like that grants you a certain power over the room and anyone in it, no matter who you are.
I was thinking the same thing. He was basically an actor, changing roles, going into a character. One thing I have been curious about, he was born an Austrian, not German. Was Austrian the same thing as German, in terms of culture and history? Did Hitler bypass Austrian nationality, and easily took on a German nationality, without any bureacratic paperwork?
My grandmother went to one of his speeches. She said he was so magnetic he could pull you in and make you believe anything. She never experienced anything like that.
Have you seen those AI dubs of his speeches and how english speakers reacted to him? Fascinating stuff, a lot of people are saying that they would've voted for him after they learned that he wasnt raging about taking over the world but giving passionate speeches to the people, which i find scary for many many reasons
@@cantinadudes I know, you would probably rather vote for someone like Stalin, Lenin or Trotsky, and uphold the ideals of Marxism, Zionism, Bolshevism, communism, and this globalist internationalism that has now taken over the world, upon which Hitler and The Europeans fought against. Just look at what over 70 years of victory of what the others have accompished in the world... the people are not free. This anarchy in the world, this collapse of the white race, this desertion throughout the whole cosmos... when we must see in our own home countries, the fall of the Family, the fall of the Homelands, the collapse of social order! The little wretch of Europe today cannot give happiness to mankind, this constructed consumer society is rotting humanity, instead of elevating it! The rest of us, at least, had dreamed of something marvelous ! When I look back, I have only one feeling... a feeling of regret.. a regret that we were not victorious, that we weren't able to create this European world that would have been free and properous for the people, and master of the Universe forever. The world is now a shit hole.
In fact this is not the only recording of Hitler with his normal everyday voice. The radio speech after the failed "plot" on July 20, 1944 is also delivered with neutral voice, without shouts or theatrical effects. And it is more central-pitched than the one heard here, although it is also a poor quality recording
This is his true voice, no editing. All of his close friends and inner circle would tell ppl he had a very deep voice in private. The American Olympian Jesse Owens met him privately and even stated he had a deep voice to his surprise.
To me as a person who can speak a bit of German it makes the hairs on my body stand up because even my limited German I can understand him quite well and he is so clear and well spoken like a modern German. It scares me so much.
Absolutely riveting. Words uttered from Hitler’s own mouth in private in the depths of world war 2 - now being played back to me on my phone while I sit on the toilet in my house in England in 2021.
Riveting. The coprolite expels with such riveting force, it rivets the entire atmosphere including your ass... To the ceiling. Only the smell clears the aftermath. Riveting.
I was born in Europe in 1943. My father was in his thirties. He hated the Nazis but he told me on several occasions that the man’s speeches were almost hypnotic.he had the gift of persuasive rhetoric and he had people eating out of his hands.
Well, Germany was being depleted of everything they had after WW1. It would have never hypnotized anyone if the German people werent so shamefully brought to their knees. Of course Hitler is bad man but the reason why he raised to power isnt just persuasion it were what everyone in Germany was probably feeling. It was more like: Time to take back what they are taking from us, while we are left with nothing.
Yes, he had strong rhetoric and articulated his words very well! People didn't even need to see him, they just needed to hear him. Testimonials say he was magnetic and seemed to bewitch his audience. 😊
Dieses überbetonte, was wir mit der Zeit verbinden, war der schlechten Qualität vieler Mikrophone und des minderwertigen Rundfunksignals geschuldet. Hätte man damals normal gesprochen, wäre quasi nur relativ unverständliches Gemurmel beim Zuhörer angekommen. Und weil wir ja fast nur solche Propaganda Übertragungen von damals kennen, haben wir ein falsches Bild dessen, was damals als "normale Sprache" galt.
He does sound like that in his speeches, but that's because these speeches were meant to rouse the masses. This was the image Hitler wanted the public to have, don't forget that this conversation was recorded in secret. He wanted to seem like an angry screaming man to get the unsatisfied parts of the population to follow him, to identify with him.
I’ve never heard this recording before and as someone who loves history and studied WW2 some 30 years ago, his voice is so much deeper in depth than I had expected. The sound engineer was very brave to have recorded this conversation. Thank you so much for making this video and for explaining the context of it . I’ve just subbed to the channel as tbh I really love History and enjoy hearing and learning about it. ❤❤❤❤
Why does he sound like he's having to explain himself? That immediately stood out to me. But it also sounds like he's getting the stress off his chest, like someone talking to their therapist. Either scenario is so un-Hitler-like and that makes this so fascinating to me. A side of him nobody would have ever known without this recording.
Because at this point he knows the Finns only logical course of action is siding with the Soviets and is trying to convince Mannerheim that he still has a firm grasp on the real situation.
@@johnwayne8494 My point is that he's Hitler and the Fuhrer never explains himself to anyone. That's why he made the military blunders he did...because he supposedly "knew" better than everyone about everything. It's a unique moment in Hitler history because he never showed that side of himself in public.
Does he not also sound hollow? I realize the recording equipment can contribute, and I don't understand German, however his talking is robotic. He uses few actual vocal dynamics to express himself.
@@herbert164 Thank the allies for that. The only reason we nowdays always think he had that old angry short man voice is thanks to allied propaganda at the time.
5:00 At table are Prime Minister of Finland Jukka Rangell, Marshall of Finland Gustaf Mannerheim, President of Finland Risto Ryti and their guest an Austrian painter.
But he's supposed to sound like a certain New York politician with orange hair. He's supposed to look like him too. The news told me they were exactly the same. Why aren't they talking about the exact same things too?
The guy basically justifies his war actions. Feels unreal to hear him, like an office manager talking about why he had done the deal with the wrong customer.
As a German too, this could almost be my grandpa talking while drinking coffee. It's scary that an evil man like him sounds so normal, who knows who else is this fucked up without anyone noticing.
@Jay Bee He was definitely evil. This recording just shows that people who commit horrors are normal people like you and me. It's a very uncomfortable truth that people don't like to admit. I remember been called a nazi sympathizer on another video because I pointed that nazis could've be your regular neighbours under normal circumstances. We rather look at them as soulless monsters who have nothing in common with us. But that really is being in denial and ignoring the big lesson of the 20th century : That if we are not careful, anyone of us could fall into dangerous ideologies and be convinced to do horrible things for "the cause".
what do u expect from a male voice of course it is going to become deeper over time i think hitler was in his 50-60's when ww2 took place, but i dont know and i dont want to search it up bc it is going to end up in my search history and i dont want to look like a nazi even though i am asian
@@allenliu8820 Why would WWII research make you a nazi? It's one of the most researched and studied subjects in human history, I think you're in the clear!
@@allenliu8820 They would be proud over the fact that you take interest in historic events and that you are willing to learn more about one of the most well-known, prominent and horrendous figures of history.
It’s more captivating talking than it is during his loud speeches. I can understand why people were almost in a hypnotic state when around him. He’s the scariest man of the 20th Century, but I can understand why so many followed.
So weird to hear... In TV and movies, he's almost always portrayed to sound like a scrawny teenager ranting about this or that, but in reality he sounded indistinguishable from most men. We like to imagine that we can identify bad people with physical traits, even augmenting them after death so people will think even harsher of those bad eggs- but the capability to carry out atrocities lie within each and everyone of us. No mustache, scar, accent, or cut of a gib can be an indicator that a person will cause harm.
holy sht ur right!! he does sound exaggerated in this portrayal (I know he's supposed to be angry in this scene, but still xD) th-cam.com/video/xBWmkwaTQ0k/w-d-xo.html
@@mistameff3528 I think they meant how Germany was demilitarized and don’t have as massive of an army as they did in ww2, even still they are one of the most powerful countries and I have massive respect for them
@@WavyLettuce Yeah I mean, the Bundeswehr (German military) is still a huge military, we, the Germans just dont have nuclear weapons, which is also pretty good in my opinion, since I hate war and the mass destruction weapons But in terms of special forces like the SEK or GSG9 or KSK we are pretty advanced.
Much deeper voice than I expected. When you really only see videos of him ranting and yelling at his rallies you kind of expect his normal voice to be higher pitched or possibly even nasally.
Being German, I understand every word of it and am so surprised at his voice. Actually, I was unable to understand ANY of his shouted speeches, couldn´t understand a word, and now, all of a sudden, he speaks understandably, sounds normal, with an Austrian accent, and normal deep voice, not even unappealing voice, which is probably the most unexpected thing about it o.O
I remember hearing Hitler’s speeches (I am 89) he did not sway the masses by CHARM! He was good orator, but always had an aggressive sound, and his great public speeches sound really grating. I have German friends from Berlin who heard him live often, both in public and otherwise!
Think about the situation Germany was in at that time... the world of politics that many do not understanding, but they have this master orator who filled in the blank for them to achieve his agenda! There are always multiple sides to a story that can make it true: whether it's good or evil is arbitrarily up to how the story is received.
One of my friends said the same thing,and,that people have only seen the short clips of him shouting,that make him look crazy ( well,he was,). In a high school English class when we were covering speech, tge teacher said that goes speakers could persuade crowds. I asked if, given that criteria, would Hitler be considered to have been a good speaker? The class burst into laughter, and one girl said, " Hitler yelled!" The teacher,howwever,said, yes.
And everything he did for Germans was to "fight for ....", if you know German and can understand his speeches, listen to what he is saying. Every bad thing must be "fought" or "eradicated". That's how he got the masses. He told them "We are in this fight together", "I am fighting FOR YOU", and given the state of Germany at that time, people were happy that someone started "fighting" for them.
@@qanix6356 the concept of fighting- "struggle" (kampf) as Hitler puts it- is central to his ideology. Without struggle there is only stagnation of a people. Or so he said.
@@twenty9inehundred he shot more than testosterone. My point which doesn't seem clear to most is simply that Hitler had a wide range in his speaking voice kind of compared to say Freddie Mercury for a singing voice
He sounds normal. And with the dishes clinking it transports you into an almost tranquil setting. It feels surreal to have this window into that moment.
@@zachgordon99 I wish I could jump into your head and witness the bitterness and insecurities it must take to write that comment... I'm assuming it's insecurity anyway.
Everyone is so surprised about how calm and level headed he sounds. He literally had so much charisma that he rallied an entire nation behind him? You don't do that by acting crazy. How else do you think he was able to manipulate people?
He took advantage of the situation. Under a wealthy Germany he’d never rise to power. I’m not talking without anything to substantiate this, either: My nonno and nonna were in Italy during Mussolini’s reign, and my nonno fought in the defense of Sicily. Italians did not care at all about the ambitions of Mussolini, and the Italian people were just dragged along for his plans of greatness. There was nothing that was to be built back up. My nonno said he didn’t mind Mussolini until he was drafted - If you weren’t from Northern Italy you were on a remote farm. If you were from the North, you worked in the wealthy vineyards, and industrial zones. Going to war pulled people from their lives with nothing meaningful to gain. Hitler rallied the people because the people wanted a redemption story. Mussolini could not rally support because the people were reasonably content with their lives the way things were.
@@KC-bg1thGermany was decimated by the consequences of the treaty of Versailles. He changed their economic system and he always preached about getting the Bolsheviks and the Central bankers out of his country. That’s who he was talking about when he said “Jews”. History class lied to us.
@@mangore623 Maybe to you it makes sense, not to me. I'm missing something. I don't even know what this comment has to do with this recording. Nobody is screaming fake anything. This recording is a well documented piece of history. I don't see any comments to the contrary. I'll chalk up my bewilderment to something I'm not understanding.
Ref' > "If you think the news today are fake, just wait until you hear about history."..reply >...As an historian; even your words are a colossal understatement, everything that is taught in universities is distorted to reflect that nations qualities and continuity, and those students: now with "a degree in rote" go on to teach the same nonsense to the nations young.."History is a bloodbath".
Who owns the mainstream Western news media landscape today? Hint: it’s the same people who dominated back in Hitler’s day and fabricated a very different image of him than the actual reality of the time.
Sounds a lot scarier and intimidating than I was expecting honestly. You can tell he has a very very strong, commanding voice even when in a calm manner.
@@tomlxyz German is the coolest European langauge after Latin. I love it and plan to learn it. I'm Spanish. Spanish is weak which contributes to its sounding romantic. French is even weaker which is why it's more romantic.
As a German, I find this very interesting; he speaks calmly yet with honesty. He is more rational and less emotional than in his speeches, acknowledging his losses and even admitting his own failures.He does not attempt to improve his own image and genuinely seems interested in the other person's opinion.
This is quite surprising in some ways to hear how normal he actually sounded like. He is presented via his speeches as he was always super tense, agitated, forceful and hypnotic, a little bit like a lunatic maybe. But he actually sounds just like a German guy I used to work with. Even his tone of voice is similar to him. Shockingly normal
There’s a reason they only show the clips of him yelling and they never translate what he’s saying. I mean the guy wrote a book while in prison. That his book isn’t mandatory reading in every school that forcefeeds Holocaust worship onto its students tells you exactly how illegitimate the official story is. They’re terrified of people actually hearing what he had to say
Even the US-Army had a "good weather armament"..........Within "bad, cloudy, rainy, moody weather" NO help from the Air Force, all US-tanks had thin tracks......
Seeing the literally chilling pictures 📷 of them in the snow ❄; makes me think of the time the media was spreading diss information. (All part of the demasculining of men.) Media was mocking men saying they could never endure the pain of childbirth. I would rather be giving birth in a comfortable place than in a war with freezing 🥶 temperatures. Rotting in a jungle. Dehydrating in a desert 🏜. Plus giving birth to a new soul is far better than destroying one. 👨👩👧👦 🙏🏼 ✌
@@jadedstar7442 The women had to work in the factories back then and produce shells and basic products; soldiers were seen as disposable for the sake of military goals and women in general were nothing but baby making machines. They were both treated bad under that regime. Not to mention the ones that were deemed "unsuitable" for society; that is artists, some scientists and mathematicians, members of democratic parties and people who were attracted the same gender or practiced crossdressing. Those were just emprisoned and/or killed. And that ist still just limited to the "mostly arian" part of the population; the rest was just burned in bulk. But i guess freezing in the snow is also kinda bad. But could just be my diss information about snow in general.
It actually says exactly this at the end of the long subtitles 1 second earlier. They just disappear before he actually says it. Not sure what the "unintelligible" part is...
Many people fail to realise one of the reasons his voice was so deep and rasping was because he was badly injured in a gas attack during WW1 which damaged his lungs and throat and left him with a permanent guttural hoarseness.
I have thousands of recordings of Hitlers speeches and in several, when the room is not very large and he uses a microphone, his voice is exactly like this, as in this recording, with a very deep tone, without any distortion made in the recordings. And there was no death threat and the SS soldier didn't even ask for the tape. He was simply asked not to disclose it and he agreed and did not disclose it. The reality is very different from a Spilberg film.
In the waning years of the late 1980's, nestled in the verdant expanse of upstate New York, a chance encounter unfolded between myself, a fervent student of history, and an elderly German émigré, a relic of a bygone era. This gentleman, having resettled in the aftermath of the Second World War, was the proprietor of a quaint musical studio, a sanctuary dedicated to the pedagogy of music and the hosting of intimate recitals in a building which he was looking to sell after decades of ownership. As I ventured into his back office/private sanctum, a trove of memorabilia from a tumultuous past lay before me, arresting my gaze. Among the artifacts were photographs capturing the visage of a youthful conductor, this very man, leading military orchestras with an air of solemnity. More startling still were the images depicting him in close discourse with Adolf Hitler, set against a backdrop of varying locales, and one particularly striking photograph of the Führer bestowing upon him a medal of honor. The man before me was not merely a bandleader but a favored maestro of Hitler himself, summoned to score the soundtrack of the Third Reich at both personal and state occasions. Our conversation meandered through the annals of the late 1930s and 1940s, as he recounted his direct experiences with the upper echelon of the Nazi hierarchy-names that echo infamously through history: Göring, Hess, Bormann, Goebbels, Speer, and Himmler. He reminisced about his presence at elite gatherings, such as the nuptials of Gretl Braun, sister to Eva Braun, wed to SS Commander Fegelein in Salzburg, an event graced by the regime’s top brass. His orchestras were handpicked to perform at the Berghof in OberSalzburg and Carinhall, Göring’s esteemed residence. The revelation of this firsthand account of the personalities and inner workings of the Nazi elite was nothing short of exhilarating. My inquiries were met with a wealth of detail, as the old man, perhaps for the first time in decades, found an eager audience in an American businessman with a profound grasp of the Second World War’s intricacies. His recollections were sharp, his pride in his craft and heritage palpable. To shake the hand and share a meal of one who had stood among historical titans, to touch a decoration pinned by Hitler himself-these were experiences I had never anticipated. His portrayal of Hitler was one of normalcy; a man who, in moments of repose, engaged in casual conversation without inducing fear or subservience. This exchange, this window into a world I had only traversed through the pages of history books, was indelible. It was as if I had been granted a clandestine view into the annals of history, a privilege afforded to few, and one that I shall carry with me as a testament to the enduring power of personal narrative in the study of our past.
He almost never yelled or screamed. They just exaggerated it and only showed this part but never the normal stuff. I heard all speeches available (around 100) and he was like 90% calm. Actually it always started calm and more and more angry until the end
Never realized I had never heard him just speaking. He has a voice made for radio. Very deep. Very strong. Gives you a better insight into his oratory skill and why it was effective. Very interesting.
The translation is a little off and sometimes wrong: One example: At 5:16 he does'nt say the first line written on the screen: "If somebody had told me that" Instead, right after: "I had not thought this possible" he says: "Ich hab dir ja vorher erzählt" (colloquial language) ~ "Ich erzählte dir [ja] vorher = " I told you before" =! "I have told this just before" Better transated as: "Ich hab dir ja vorher erzählt" (colloquial language) ~" Wie ich dir vorher erzählte" = " Like I you before told" = "Like I told you before" =! "I have told this just before" but in any case, he definitely did'nt say: ""If somebody had told me that" at this specific timestamp _________________ At 7:25 it's not "unintelligible" he says "das hat uns daran gehindert" ~ "that prevented us from doing so" ~"That has hindered us" Which is mentioned in the text before. Therefore its a bit confusing when So just remove "That has hindered us" from the previous slide and replace "unintelligible" with "That has hindered us"
Er hört sich wirklich erschreckend normal und sympathisch an. Ich bin schockiert. Ich hatte erwartet eine hohe, unfreundliche Stimme als seine Alltags-Stimme zu hören. Wahnsinn ist leider nicht leicht zu erkennen. Nicht damals, nicht heue. Ob nah oder fern. Dialekt würde als hochdeutsch mit bayerisch, grenznah österreichischen Klangfarbe bezeichnen. Danke fürs hochladen. ❤
Heute nennen wir das gern Wahnsinn, die Verantwortlichen damals waren aber höchstwahrscheinlich bei vollem Verstand. Ähnliches haben auch die psychologischen Gutachten bei den Nürnberger Prozessen ergeben, die keine phsyvholigische Beeinträchtigungen fanden. Alle hochrangingen Nazis dort hatten überdurchschnittlich hohe IQs, mit einer Ausnahme lagen alle davon mindestens eine Standardabweichung über dem Durchschnitt, etwa die Hälfte von ihnen sogar zwei (>130). Über Hermann Göring wird von alliierten Soldaten gesagt, dass er außerordentlich gute Manieren hatte. Der Wahnsinn liegt nicht in deren Verstand, sondern in der Ideologie. Die Grundgefahr, die in ideologischem Denken schlummert, ist, dass die Idee, die Sicht auf die Welt, vor der Wirklichkeit kommt und ihr als einziges Interpretationsschema aufgezwungen wird. Ähnliches sehen wir heute in vielen Ideen rund um die Geschlechtlichkeit des Menschen. Ein gesunder Verstand verstärkt somit auf gewisse Weise die Gefahr die einer Ideologie innewohnt.
Didn't expect such a rich and charismatic voice, it's the kind of voice that can naturally pierce through the sound of a crowded room and most likely aided him in his early day while speaking in beer halls and such.
@@edgepixel8467 Nah the United States does war and oppression under the guise of freedom and capitalism. All the politicians and would be politicians are corrupt beyond reason, willing to push their own agenda and watch people die than save lives. Which your own self serving and self righteous comment only furthers. I'm talking about something we couldn't actually have in reality, because we have people like Hitler, Stalin, Moussolini, Caesar, Attila, Borgia, almost anyone in modern politics in the United States. Self righteous fools who get paid by bigger fools to push an agenda of inevitable destruction, and the idiots who support them among the population only hasten to their own death.
Nah he sounds old fashioned, especially with that accent. I don't know if it's an Austrian accent or what, but he definitely doesn't sound like a random modern German. Maybe an old man
You can tell Hitler was a progressive thinker by the way he talked. Very modern compared to the stuck up Prussian bourgeoisie of the time. Hitler wanted to transform Germany into a futuristic advanced state and do away with stuck in the ways things.
It is amazing because for so many decades we as Americans have only gotten to hear his passionate shouting and speeches in his native tongue. It's only recently we have gotten AI translations into English to fully understand it.
The voice is as expected. Even if you only know the yelling recordings, you can clearly recognize him with his accent, pronunciation and vocabulary. I'm more surprised about the clear and true words. He doesn't pack things into strange sentences like politicians today. He is admitting that things went wrong, that his opinion was wrong, the army was only good for summer. He doesn't seem to be crazy at all.
Did people really expect that he rose to the position he occupied just by screaming incoherently? He had to be extremely charismatic and well articulated. And we need to be aware of that.
Yes he was also intelligent, that was also another trait to need. The big screaming is just used to make the hugh mass of german people like what Hitler says as strong leader.
@@23Disciple Nope. His voice was always like that. The "speeches," he was in were edited by Nazi officials to make his voice seem higher than it really was. Or it's possible he just talked like that in public but in private he talked in his regular deeper voice.
That was so weird. I do have some hearing loss so it sounded very mixed up. When I stopped reading and concentrated on looking fir German words, I could hear it. His voice was pleasant but I didn't want it to be.
As with any language, you cannot fully understand or appreciate this without being a German speaker. To me, as a fluent German language speaker and as someone who went to school in Hessen for a couple years and spent some time there, it just sounds like a normal German man conversing. There's no "spooky" or hypnotic aspect to it at all, not for any German speaker, native or otherwise. He just sounds normal. Surprisingly, he also doesn't even seem to have much of a heavy Austrian accent either. For someone his age and generation, you would expect him to have it, but he almost seems to cover it up, weirdly.
IMO Hitler is just a product of his age, an age when flawed socioeconomic theories and ideologies run rampant, when global food shortage was a real issue due to lack of agricultural technological investments, when immature and bigoted anthropological theories were widespread and held as truth, and when a nation with little to no experience with democratic procedures were trying frantically to put all responsibilities of national decision making to just one man alone. Put him under the context of all the systematic failures of early 20th century, one may get a much better picture of him, and understand that he was merely a mortal political leader with abilities little above average, and should be better classified on par with Putin or Trump. (Some makers of atrocities were even worse in terms of personal skills.)
I'm guessing that he was more in love with the Germanic dialect and tried to mimic it for much of his life? His own writings seemed to rave about everything German.
@@joecoupon8299 he probably lost his Austrian dialect in ww1 when he fought with the Bavarian army, then he moved to Munich after the war, so he’s been out of Austria for a while
You seriously need to check out jung man. It seems the naive idea that the devil is obviously evil and with horns is very widespread. That foolish idea is one of the roots of evil.
It's only chilling because you've bought into his legend. You give him power by elevating him to such a level that his mundanity seems unsettling by comparison. He was just a guy. A guy who had terrible ideas and did terrible things, but just a guy otherwise. Now, in his death, he only has the power that you give him.
Same here... I am horrified that a man who talks so reflected can be so cruel. Makes him even more dangerous because he obviously wasn't the lunatic people thought he was.
@@marilynevans5337 on the contrary: history is written by the victors. This is as much true in today‘s culture wars as it was in the past during Stalin‘s purges. Tearing down a statue of Churchill is the logical conclusion of changing the historical narrative so that Churchill is now worse than Hitler, which is the narrative the woke left is now pushing. If they win, then history will teach that Churchill was worse than Hitler. Funny, Orwell predicted this re-writing of history 75 years ago...
@Chidori457 boy are you the gullible! Black American Jesse Owen's ran in the 1936 Olympics in Germany and was not welcome there. That was the same year my dad tried out to race in the Indianapolis 500. Within the next decade Hitler will have led the murder of 6 million Jews. There have been murders of minorities (and non-minorities) in America for racial reasons. But it has not been institutionalized like the murder of Polish and German Jews was in Germany. If you want to point a finger, point to the institutionalized murder of 50+ million unborn fetuses in America 🇺🇸 since 1973.
But then he does the crap with the big speeches to thousands and his voice goes up in tone, almost hysterical, and you get the hands going on. Never understood how that was received as charismatic.
@@blackletter2591 The hands were not that crazy to me; it didn't matter anyway since most people listened via radio. But I will try to explain why he was charismatic. First, he used very strong word choices, favoring things like "blood", "fire", "sword", as euphemisms. He also explained (regardless of whether or not you believe them nowadays is irrelevant; the people believed them, and so did many Americans at that time too) the problems with German society, specifically the Weimar Republic. He also started his speeches off very low and quietly. He had an uncomfortably long pause before he actually started to speak. He would talk about bureaucratic things at first, creating an emotional bedrock for the audience, then slowly start to raise his voice as it matched with what he was saying. Thus his connection with the audience and what they were feeling was identical.
His voice was deeper than I thought it would be. Kind of eerie though because it's a pretty clear recording. The guy that made the recording had no idea that 80 years later millions and millions of people would hear it on something called the internet.WILD!!!!!!!!
Why everyone saying, 'he sounds so normal, so suprised!' He's a human being and from earth, what's he suppose to sound like? Speeches are always expounded beyond normal conversational speech.
Likely because of the higher toned, edgy, and forced nature of the recordings that we're accustomed to hearing. I agree that a "normal" voice isn't surprising; rather, it is the smooth, baritone quality of the voice especially when considering the relatively "frequecy-limited" recording technology of the time. It is, in my opinion, quite a commanding, maybe even imposing, voice heard during this casual conversation. I'm sure he realized this and used it to his advantage during these types of settings.
I think too, it have something to do with technical, but in my mind primary is microphone of those times. And that too he was yelling + amp and tape plaa plaa, but If I have to put my moneys for guess, I say mostly Mic. On this record there are 2 persons and new machine, indoors, so it sound better and more realistic. And many records of his speech was recorded from radio at that time?
@@jannejohansson3383 absolutely, very good observations. The audio dynamics due to situational acoustics are so much different. This recording is so interesting because of this.
Exactly. A modern analogy would be some narrators on American documentaries versus how they would speak in the real world. If they spoke in their terrible ‘professional’ voice when making a purchase in a local shop they’d get funny looks in everyday America. Imagine how much worse it is for ‘People in Most of the World That Isn’t America’ to listen to this OTT dramatic dialogue and accent when you just want to watch something that could have been interesting.
@@modulusfive9839 I think it's just voice acting. When you're trying to make speech with plead to strong emotions and anger, then high pitch voice is better and it's generally heard better as well. Remember, this guy practiced his speeches many times and even took acting lessons. Vocal control shouldn't be issue for him.
There are several people speaking, one speaks German with a Hungarian accent, the other one could be Hitler, and there is another voice of a typical German speaking man. None of them sounds like the natives of the region where Hitler originates from. Even the Grammar is unusual. Odd footage.
My father read every known book he could find about the war he served in... THIS recording would have absolutely fascinated him. He died in 1995. I'm sad I can't send this to him! But I listened to the end. Thank you for posting this. (I had NO IDEA!) It was very interesting.
You are extention of your father.. He read it through you and I'm sure he's thankful for you not forgetting.. But I know what you mean, you wish he was here physically..
And your father is probably in heaven and never going to hear Hitler’s voice. From John 3- 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. 19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. 21 But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.
This was so interesting. Thank you for posting and also for explaining the lead up to the recording. You might have already covered it (and if you have could you please direct me to the link ?) I would very much like to know more about the battle of Crete , as it’s not covered as much as the others . My Dad was an English tank driver during the Crete battle . He was captured and made prisoner of war . The only thing he spoke of was the awful food they had to eat ( including rats) and the camaraderie amongst soldiers . Never told us of any other things, like the many atrocities he obviously must’ve witnessed, because he had a deep 6” gash scar on his cheek & suffered terrifying nightmares his whole life 😢.
This sort of thing is absolutely necessary to hear. Turning the villains of history into goose stepping caricatures and fairytale monsters allows us to distance ourselves from the reality that every unspeakably evil act in history was perpetrated by completely ordinary human beings, as well as all those yet to come.
Human beings, yes...completely ordinary, I wouldn't agree. But I agree that turning the worst among us into "monsters" instead of just human beings who are bad people is an easy way to pretend that such evil qualities don't really exist in people. Just "monsters."
It is important to emphasise, however, that Hitler TURNED HIMSELF into the ranting demagogue. In public appearances he CHOSE and/or had an irresistible impulse to appear in that (presumably he thought) passionate, hectoring style. He worked himself up to it, without any input from other individuals - just the emoting crowds. He must have dosed himself with honey and/or other emollients and anti-inflammatories, to sustain that theatrical pitch session after session - as well as an obliging tame doctor to tend to him.
Exactly, culture gives the false impression Nazis were psychos and rabid people, when they were actually ordinary people in their majority, like in any society at any point in time. Its important to keep that in mind, because many of us could have been Nazis on Germany at that time, only that we cannot do the social experiment to prove it
@@cyrena65 I haven't been able to find the specific clip I was thinking of, but it was one where he was giving a speech in what seemed to be a relatively small, dark, and possibly underground room to a newly formed/graduated group of soldiers. The speech was performed without the aid of a speaker system and was filmed with a relatively low quality camera compared to most of his speeches. The entire speech was calm and with a normal tone of voice, and while he was projecting his voice to be heard clearly it wasn't the typical bombastic style he used for public speeches. Also, the Sportpalast speech has long sections where he's speaking in a more or less normal voice, but he's still using "official" tones in difference to the clip I was thinking of. Sorry I couln't be of more help. I remeber the details above, that it was a clip on youtube I watched a bit before this video, and that the unit he was speaking to had a double digit number in their name.
I don’t speak German but I 100% agree that I thought his voice would sound profoundly different. He actually sounds pleasant which is terrifying to me.
Average person hearing this: wow I didn't expect Hitler to sound normal. Dude, everything you think you know about Hitler has been carefully crafted and curated by his rivals. Not to say anything about him or the nazis, but seriously think for a moment about what little you'll ever really know about him and what he actually believed.
Many years ago I did a Reverse Speech Analysis of this particular conversation - it yielded very interesting reversals... Interestingly enough I wanted to write in my book about the work with Reverse Speech, aboutthis and my findings and I said Hitlers voice was very deep and sounded 'nice' - it got censored by the publisher and I was not allowed to say it...
This is the problem with the modern world. People want to keep the bad guy all bad, and the good guy all good, like a children's tale or a Hollywood movie. If we would only learn to accept, acknowledge, and explore the grey areas in most human interactions and events; and then admit that we are apt to paint a picture of things more one way or the other depending on where we are standing, we might actually learn and understand what actually happened here or there, how the other side is affected from their point of view, and attempt to avoid the inevitable drums of war. Perhaps then some of us at least, could see the signs ahead of disaster, and prevent so much more damage. With eyes wide open to the truth we could shun the stories of black and white, and find a way to work with each other without vilifying the other's side of things, that lead to conflict.. I am not saying realizing Adolf Hitler could speak like a normal rational man and even admit he had been unprepared militarily in some areas, proves he was a guy who might have been someone we could negotiate with at some point in time during the war. I am saying way before things got to the start of the war when Germany was suffering so badly from the results of the treaty of Versailles, we might have prevented the whole direction that lead to his rise if we had allowed Germany to get back on it's feet without so much financial punishment post WWI. .

Thank you for your great labour.
Btw, I was just wondering if you are Dutch? 😎🎉😘
Even more impressive than his voice are his comments. Hitler is obviously extremely worried about the output of Soviet tanks and fighting in two fronts, and note that this is the Summer of 1942, Stalingrad and Normandy are yet to happen. Unaware that he was being recorded, we can see that Hitler was way more worried that he admitted publicly. Who knows, maybe intimately he understood much earlier that the war was going to be lost...
As a German, i have heard this recording a few times. It is extremly eerie to hear him talk like a normal person. Like a neighbour. His Austrian accent is almost unnoticeable, his speech could easily pass as High German for someone not paying attention. Also, his choice of words, his pronunciation is almost modern. Not "old fashioned" as you would expect someone to talk in the 1930s or -40s. And to think that this is HIM. Having a random conversation. An i am sitting here, in Germany, listening to it on an American Website decades later... it is insane how history works.

“For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.” -John 3:17
@@stephensmith777 hell doesn't really make sense since God would be punishing people before they have their trial. Even today we would call that wrong. It makes more sense that we will be punished after judgement for what we did if not saved by Christ.
Guess I should have shared the whole verse (John 3:13-21):
“No one has ever gone to heaven and returned. But the Son of Man has come down from heaven. And as Moses lifted up the bronze snake on a pole in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, so that everyone who believes in him will have eternal life.
“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.
“There is no judgment against anyone who believes in him. But anyone who does not believe in him has already been judged for not believing in God’s one and only Son. And the judgment is based on this fact: God’s light came into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil. All who do evil hate the light and refuse to go near it for fear their sins will be exposed. But those who do what is right come to the light so others can see that they are doing what God wants.”

I don't think the deepness, was his actual voice, rather a distortion of the sound. Mind that the recording was in another room, and also that old recordings can sound distorted. Maybe the recording picked up the underlying bass of his voice, so it sounds deeper.

Are we listening to the same recording? He is lamenting and questioning the current path of the war, how the USSR had such an enormous amount of materiel and wishing someone could have warned him 😂 not exactly calm unless you were expecting the stereotypical Hitler yelling and screaming.
@@onikwahe is saying that is calm in his speaking. Not that he is speaking about chill themes, like the weather. You can speak calmly even about dramatic themes.

Got to be an audio artifact, it sounds like when you use a vouce changer or when you downspeed a recording to get something akin to Bane from Dark Knight Rises. If it deteriorated over time or if if they used a phonograph it might have been at half speed. At least record players from the 70's had that abiility, I don't know about the early 40's. But it's unnaturally deep though, first thing I noticed, like it was a demon speaking 🤣
@@Italianlad69 If you listen to the other guy in the same recording, he sounded normal, so Hitler just generally had a low, oddly demonic sounding voice. It's not difficult to see how he got where he got. An imposing voice like that grants you a certain power over the room and anyone in it, no matter who you are.
Kim of north korea..his voice is suprisingly deep also
Maybe the Horrors of WW1 has also Something to do with it.
People with a Trauma often Talk in a Deep voice
Everyone is surprised.. did you really expect him to shout until his heart exploded every time he spoke?

I was thinking the same thing. He was basically an actor, changing roles, going into a character. One thing I have been curious about, he was born an Austrian, not German. Was Austrian the same thing as German, in terms of culture and history? Did Hitler bypass Austrian nationality, and easily took on a German nationality, without any bureacratic paperwork?

This anarchy in the world, this collapse of the white race, this desertion throughout the whole cosmos... when we must see in our own home countries, the fall of the Family, the fall of the Homelands, the collapse of social order! The little wretch of Europe today cannot give happiness to mankind, this constructed consumer society is rotting humanity, instead of elevating it!

In fact this is not the only recording of Hitler with his normal everyday voice. The radio speech after the failed "plot" on July 20, 1944 is also delivered with neutral voice, without shouts or theatrical effects. And it is more central-pitched than the one heard here, although it is also a poor quality recording

Why does he sound like he's having to explain himself? That immediately stood out to me. But it also sounds like he's getting the stress off his chest, like someone talking to their therapist. Either scenario is so un-Hitler-like and that makes this so fascinating to me. A side of him nobody would have ever known without this recording.
Because at this point he knows the Finns only logical course of action is siding with the Soviets and is trying to convince Mannerheim that he still has a firm grasp on the real situation.

Think about the situation Germany was in at that time... the world of politics that many do not understanding, but they have this master orator who filled in the blank for them to achieve his agenda!

One of my friends said the same thing,and,that people have only seen the short clips of him shouting,that make him look crazy ( well,he was,).
In a high school English class when we were covering speech, tge teacher said that goes speakers could persuade crowds.
I asked if, given that criteria, would Hitler be considered to have been a good speaker?
The class burst
into laughter, and one girl said, " Hitler yelled!"
The teacher,howwever,said, yes.
And everything he did for Germans was to "fight for ....", if you know German and can understand his speeches, listen to what he is saying.
Every bad thing must be "fought" or "eradicated". That's how he got the masses. He told them "We are in this fight together", "I am fighting FOR YOU", and given the state of Germany at that time, people were happy that someone started "fighting" for them.

Siendo auténtico
It didn't sound like minipulstion it sounded like the truth
He took advantage of the situation. Under a wealthy Germany he’d never rise to power.
I’m not talking without anything to substantiate this, either:
My nonno and nonna were in Italy during Mussolini’s reign, and my nonno fought in the defense of Sicily.
Italians did not care at all about the ambitions of Mussolini, and the Italian people were just dragged along for his plans of greatness.
There was nothing that was to be built back up. My nonno said he didn’t mind Mussolini until he was drafted - If you weren’t from Northern Italy you were on a remote farm. If you were from the North, you worked in the wealthy vineyards, and industrial zones.
Going to war pulled people from their lives with nothing meaningful to gain.
Hitler rallied the people because the people wanted a redemption story. Mussolini could not rally support because the people were reasonably content with their lives the way things were.

This is quite surprising in some ways to hear how normal he actually sounded like. He is presented via his speeches as he was always super tense, agitated, forceful and hypnotic, a little bit like a lunatic maybe. But he actually sounds just like a German guy I used to work with. Even his tone of voice is similar to him. Shockingly normal
that's what he envied in mussolini. The ability to do theatrics at the drop of a hat and generate that cult of personality
There’s a reason they only show the clips of him yelling and they never translate what he’s saying. I mean the guy wrote a book while in prison. That his book isn’t mandatory reading in every school that forcefeeds Holocaust worship onto its students tells you exactly how illegitimate the official story is. They’re terrified of people actually hearing what he had to say
if he would have been in tense with his own they would not love him.
Well he was just another German, just like the millions of Germans, and others, who carried out the acts he ordered. Just ordinary Germans…

@@nappssnapps2891 you obviously do because you’re taking the time to watch and comment on this video hun 🤣
He’s very precise and his voice is quite deeper than I would’ve expected. Interesting…
I have thousands of recordings of Hitlers speeches and in several, when the room is not very large and he uses a microphone, his voice is exactly like this, as in this recording, with a very deep tone, without any distortion made in the recordings. And there was no death threat and the SS soldier didn't even ask for the tape. He was simply asked not to disclose it and he agreed and did not disclose it. The reality is very different from a Spilberg film.
In the waning years of the late 1980's, nestled in the verdant expanse of upstate New York, a chance encounter unfolded between myself, a fervent student of history, and an elderly German émigré, a relic of a bygone era. This gentleman, having resettled in the aftermath of the Second World War, was the proprietor of a quaint musical studio, a sanctuary dedicated to the pedagogy of music and the hosting of intimate recitals in a building which he was looking to sell after decades of ownership.
As I ventured into his back office/private sanctum, a trove of memorabilia from a tumultuous past lay before me, arresting my gaze. Among the artifacts were photographs capturing the visage of a youthful conductor, this very man, leading military orchestras with an air of solemnity. More startling still were the images depicting him in close discourse with Adolf Hitler, set against a backdrop of varying locales, and one particularly striking photograph of the Führer bestowing upon him a medal of honor.
The man before me was not merely a bandleader but a favored maestro of Hitler himself, summoned to score the soundtrack of the Third Reich at both personal and state occasions. Our conversation meandered through the annals of the late 1930s and 1940s, as he recounted his direct experiences with the upper echelon of the Nazi hierarchy-names that echo infamously through history: Göring, Hess, Bormann, Goebbels, Speer, and Himmler.
He reminisced about his presence at elite gatherings, such as the nuptials of Gretl Braun, sister to Eva Braun, wed to SS Commander Fegelein in Salzburg, an event graced by the regime’s top brass. His orchestras were handpicked to perform at the Berghof in OberSalzburg and Carinhall, Göring’s esteemed residence.
The revelation of this firsthand account of the personalities and inner workings of the Nazi elite was nothing short of exhilarating. My inquiries were met with a wealth of detail, as the old man, perhaps for the first time in decades, found an eager audience in an American businessman with a profound grasp of the Second World War’s intricacies. His recollections were sharp, his pride in his craft and heritage palpable.
To shake the hand and share a meal of one who had stood among historical titans, to touch a decoration pinned by Hitler himself-these were experiences I had never anticipated. His portrayal of Hitler was one of normalcy; a man who, in moments of repose, engaged in casual conversation without inducing fear or subservience.
This exchange, this window into a world I had only traversed through the pages of history books, was indelible. It was as if I had been granted a clandestine view into the annals of history, a privilege afforded to few, and one that I shall carry with me as a testament to the enduring power of personal narrative in the study of our past.

The translation is a little off and sometimes wrong:
One example:
At 5:16 he does'nt say the first line written on the screen: "If somebody had told me that"
Instead, right after:
"I had not thought this possible"
he says:
"Ich hab dir ja vorher erzählt" (colloquial language)
~ "Ich erzählte dir [ja] vorher
= " I told you before"
=! "I have told this just before"
Better transated as:
"Ich hab dir ja vorher erzählt" (colloquial language)
~" Wie ich dir vorher erzählte"
= " Like I you before told" = "Like I told you before"
=! "I have told this just before"
but in any case, he definitely did'nt say:
""If somebody had told me that"
at this specific timestamp
_________________
At 7:25 it's not "unintelligible"
he says
"das hat uns daran gehindert"
~ "that prevented us from doing so"
~"That has hindered us"
Which is mentioned in the text before. Therefore its a bit confusing when
So just remove "That has hindered us" from the previous slide and replace
"unintelligible" with "That has hindered us"

Heute nennen wir das gern Wahnsinn, die Verantwortlichen damals waren aber höchstwahrscheinlich bei vollem Verstand. Ähnliches haben auch die psychologischen Gutachten bei den Nürnberger Prozessen ergeben, die keine phsyvholigische Beeinträchtigungen fanden. Alle hochrangingen Nazis dort hatten überdurchschnittlich hohe IQs, mit einer Ausnahme lagen alle davon mindestens eine Standardabweichung über dem Durchschnitt, etwa die Hälfte von ihnen sogar zwei (>130). Über Hermann Göring wird von alliierten Soldaten gesagt, dass er außerordentlich gute Manieren hatte.
Der Wahnsinn liegt nicht in deren Verstand, sondern in der Ideologie. Die Grundgefahr, die in ideologischem Denken schlummert, ist, dass die Idee, die Sicht auf die Welt, vor der Wirklichkeit kommt und ihr als einziges Interpretationsschema aufgezwungen wird. Ähnliches sehen wir heute in vielen Ideen rund um die Geschlechtlichkeit des Menschen. Ein gesunder Verstand verstärkt somit auf gewisse Weise die Gefahr die einer Ideologie innewohnt.

As with any language, you cannot fully understand or appreciate this without being a German speaker. To me, as a fluent German language speaker and as someone who went to school in Hessen for a couple years and spent some time there, it just sounds like a normal German man conversing. There's no "spooky" or hypnotic aspect to it at all, not for any German speaker, native or otherwise. He just sounds normal. Surprisingly, he also doesn't even seem to have much of a heavy Austrian accent either. For someone his age and generation, you would expect him to have it, but he almost seems to cover it up, weirdly.
IMO Hitler is just a product of his age, an age when flawed socioeconomic theories and ideologies run rampant, when global food shortage was a real issue due to lack of agricultural technological investments, when immature and bigoted anthropological theories were widespread and held as truth, and when a nation with little to no experience with democratic procedures were trying frantically to put all responsibilities of national decision making to just one man alone.
Put him under the context of all the systematic failures of early 20th century, one may get a much better picture of him, and understand that he was merely a mortal political leader with abilities little above average, and should be better classified on par with Putin or Trump. (Some makers of atrocities were even worse in terms of personal skills.)

@@blackletter2591 I agree
@@blackletter2591 The hands were not that crazy to me; it didn't matter anyway since most people listened via radio. But I will try to explain why he was charismatic.

He also explained (regardless of whether or not you believe them nowadays is irrelevant; the people believed them, and so did many Americans at that time too) the problems with German society, specifically the Weimar Republic. He also started his speeches off very low and quietly. He had an uncomfortably long pause before he actually started to speak. He would talk about bureaucratic things at first, creating an emotional bedrock for the audience, then slowly start to raise his voice as it matched with what he was saying. Thus his connection with the audience and what they were feeling was identical.

Why everyone saying, 'he sounds so normal, so suprised!' He's a human being and from earth, what's he suppose to sound like? Speeches are always expounded beyond normal conversational speech.
Likely because of the higher toned, edgy, and forced nature of the recordings that we're accustomed to hearing. I agree that a "normal" voice isn't surprising; rather, it is the smooth, baritone quality of the voice especially when considering the relatively "frequecy-limited" recording technology of the time. It is, in my opinion, quite a commanding, maybe even imposing, voice heard during this casual conversation. I'm sure he realized this and used it to his advantage during these types of settings.
I think too, it have something to do with technical, but in my mind primary is microphone of those times. And that too he was yelling + amp and tape plaa plaa, but If I have to put my moneys for guess, I say mostly Mic. On this record there are 2 persons and new machine, indoors, so it sound better and more realistic. And many records of his speech was recorded from radio at that time?

Turning the villains of history into goose stepping caricatures and fairytale monsters allows us to distance ourselves from the reality that every unspeakably evil act in history was perpetrated by completely ordinary human beings, as well as all those yet to come.
Human beings, yes...completely ordinary, I wouldn't agree. But I agree that turning the worst among us into "monsters" instead of just human beings who are bad people is an easy way to pretend that such evil qualities don't really exist in people. Just "monsters."
It is important to emphasise, however, that Hitler TURNED HIMSELF into the ranting demagogue. In public appearances he CHOSE and/or had an irresistible impulse to appear in that (presumably he thought) passionate, hectoring style. He worked himself up to it, without any input from other individuals - just the emoting crowds. He must have dosed himself with honey and/or other emollients and anti-inflammatories, to sustain that theatrical pitch session after session - as well as an obliging tame doctor to tend to him.
Exactly, culture gives the false impression Nazis were psychos and rabid people, when they were actually ordinary people in their majority, like in any society at any point in time. Its important to keep that in mind, because many of us could have been Nazis on Germany at that time, only that we cannot do the social experiment to prove it
This is the most underrated comment on this video.
No very ordinary too ordinary that's why things like this happen.
This is not the only recording of Hitler's normal speaking voice.
Please drop a link to any other. TIA
@@cyrena65 I haven't been able to find the specific clip I was thinking of, but it was one where he was giving a speech in what seemed to be a relatively small, dark, and possibly underground room to a newly formed/graduated group of soldiers. The speech was performed without the aid of a speaker system and was filmed with a relatively low quality camera compared to most of his speeches.
The entire speech was calm and with a normal tone of voice, and while he was projecting his voice to be heard clearly it wasn't the typical bombastic style he used for public speeches.
Also, the Sportpalast speech has long sections where he's speaking in a more or less normal voice, but he's still using "official" tones in difference to the clip I was thinking of.
Sorry I couln't be of more help. I remeber the details above, that it was a clip on youtube I watched a bit before this video, and that the unit he was speaking to had a double digit number in their name.
I always wondered what he said during his speeches but was too lazy to pursue the translations. It will be interesting to listen to more of these.
A fascinating historical record, quite literally a miracle that it both survived and was discovered so the world could hear it.
Bro when I click the video I got the fucking 7 ads in row 💀 what is this TH-cam a new fucking update?
Sustained from WW1 A GAS ATTACK
Who would like to hear his criminal voice for fucks sake?
As a German speaker I am shocked how chilled and normal he sounds...
What did you think he'd sound like?
@@ordoabchao4202 Probably thought he would sound like Patton

I don’t speak German but I 100% agree that I thought his voice would sound profoundly different. He actually sounds pleasant which is terrifying to me.
Average person hearing this: wow I didn't expect Hitler to sound normal.
Dude, everything you think you know about Hitler has been carefully crafted and curated by his rivals. Not to say anything about him or the nazis, but seriously think for a moment about what little you'll ever really know about him and what he actually believed.
Many years ago I did a Reverse Speech Analysis of this particular conversation - it yielded very interesting reversals... Interestingly enough I wanted to write in my book about the work with Reverse Speech, aboutthis and my findings and I said Hitlers voice was very deep and sounded 'nice' - it got censored by the publisher and I was not allowed to say it...
This is the problem with the modern world. People want to keep the bad guy all bad, and the good guy all good, like a children's tale or a Hollywood movie. If we would only learn to accept, acknowledge, and explore the grey areas in most human interactions and events; and then admit that we are apt to paint a picture of things more one way or the other depending on where we are standing, we might actually learn and understand what actually happened here or there, how the other side is affected from their point of view, and attempt to avoid the inevitable drums of war. Perhaps then some of us at least, could see the signs ahead of disaster, and prevent so much more damage. With eyes wide open to the truth we could shun the stories of black and white, and find a way to work with each other without vilifying the other's side of things, that lead to conflict.. I am not saying realizing Adolf Hitler could speak like a normal rational man and even admit he had been unprepared militarily in some areas, proves he was a guy who might have been someone we could negotiate with at some point in time during the war. I am saying way before things got to the start of the war when Germany was suffering so badly from the results of the treaty of Versailles, we might have prevented the whole direction that lead to his rise if we had allowed Germany to get back on it's feet without so much financial punishment post WWI. .
The recording starts at 3:44 for anyone wondering

I am German. He just sounds like my grandfather talking. Kind of normal to me. A bit old fashioned, but thats it. Crazy to hear this.
It's crazy to you because you have been brainwashed.
ask your grandfather where he was in 1945
you mean your grandfather also likes to talk about russian tanks and winter when you visit ? :o
Where does your grandfather come from? Im asking because I want to know what kind of German accent Hitler spoke
Probably Austrian, as he was Austria
Nunca habia oido su voz.
Definitivamente es importante para Historiadores y Psiquiatras.
