Being an American Jew descending from Holocaust survivors, I grew up on stories about human ash appearing to come down from the sky like snow and Jewish prisoners made to dig their own graves, being shot, and then forced or being thrown into them. Those who do not remember the past may be doomed to repeat it. Thanks Infographics Show for bringing this horror to light.
I am very happy that your relatives made it alive at the same time sorry for all Jewish people who were killed in Holocaust, sending love and warm hugs to American Jewish communities from Azerbaijan, Baku
That's all horrible, and the fact that in 2018 supposedly only 41% of us Americans knew what Auchwitz was used for is simply pathetic. Anyone who doesn't know what went on there should be embarrassed for themselves...
Joseph Mengele was never caught. They hunted him down for years but he became paranoid and moved home quite often in south america mostly in Argentina and Uruguay/Paraguay. He lived with a family until he died from a stress induced heart attack in 1979. One of the worst war criminals in history managed to escape, live to a ripe old age, and become family friends with innocent people. Try to sleep at night knowing that.
I have to say, I don't understand why anyone would think that this guy would ever feel remorse. One would need to be psychopathic or sociopathic in order to do those things.
War Crimes Tribunal held Dr Joseph in custody for 18 months and carried out a massive search for victims or witnesses to any crimes. They found none despite placing advertisements in 26 newspapers. He was freed. Joseph moved to Argentina in 1956.
That is so shocking to me that so many don't know. I took my daughter to the holocaust museum in Houston and introduced her to a woman that managed to crawl out of a pit after being shot in the head. It was important to me that she knew what happened to people there.
May I ask, what do Americans learn about the Second World War in schools? In The Netherlands, the war is less important than the reasons of war, ideology of the Nazi's and what it meant to the citizens of those countries invaded. It's less about numbers of casualties of war and more about stories of people living through those horrible years. But I wonder, if around 41% of Americans do not know about the impact of Auschwitz, what do they learn in schools about WW2?
@@bertschumacher2097 i am not sure what they are teaching kids these days but if you want that kind of indepth class you gotta take a college class that was or is specifically about that war with a teacher that cares enough. I did and it was specifically about what the Jewish people suffered and my final research paper was on Dr Mengele. I cried and lost alot of sleep and it was by far my favorite class. At the end i got to meet an amazing Jewish woman that survived being shot in the head and tossed in a mass grave. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life and she loved my daughter. She passed a few years later. God bless her.
@@bertschumacher2097 nothing past D-Day other than Pearl Harbor honestly. To the average American student, America entered the war after Pearl Harbor and that's the focus until D-Day. After D-Day it's the drive to Berlin, a little about Market Garden and a lot on the Battle of the Bulge. As a whole the American students, in public schools at least get shorted about what WW2 really was about. I personally learned more after high school than I did during it when it comes to WW2. I love history and studying the Eastern Front especially.
They forget to mention at like 15 minutes, that when Miklos was ordered to boil the corpses, he came back after an hour, to witness two other starving prisoners thinking it was a pan of broth, drinking the decomposing bodies... such sick things were 'normal' in these camps. Really insane, but The book miklos wrote is very interesting. I can recommend it, for those who are interested in the mechanics of places like Auschwitz. Miklos Nyiszli was his full name btw
That is absolutely awful and horrid. Thats one thing I hadnt heard. I read this comment at the time it was on the screen, and if I were to see that portrayed in a cute cartoon would have been a bit much to watch. Thats so sad and disgusting. All of it is.
@@TaurusWitch29 I agree with you for sure. Even the average things that happened in these kind of camps are by itself a horror show. So, implementing these kind of 'normal' behaviours, is too much, especially if you are just curious. I read a few historic books about the ss and the system of their sick rethorics, just because of my interest and the past of my family. So yeah, if it would be illustrated, it would be to horrible, even for an info channel.
The thing is, ppl need to understand this has happened other places. Roman jewish captivity happened a long time ago. This Genocide should make ppl want to know about history so it doesn't repeat. Two other genocides are Kurdish and armenian from what I can think of.

This is an example of people thinking more about if we could do something then thinking about if we should. It’s a good question “should we?” But it doesn’t seem to appear in some people’s minds
i had the absolute pleasure to meet eva kor (a mengele twin) in middle school. though it was horrible what she was made to suffer through it is an experience i will cherish for my life
In a constitutional state, it is customary to receive a fair trial and not to curse someone beforehand. It is possible that Mengele was incapable of guilt.
As someone with a brother who has dwarfism this terrifies me…my dad went to the IWM a few years ago with some friends and he said they were all quiet as all three of them had a child who would’ve been sent to the concentration camps. This is terrifying but very important to learn about.
A few corrections: Technically his crimes weren't war crimes, as they didn't happen between nations at war. They were crimes against humanity and crimes against.... Well the English word for Menschlichkeit is also humanity. As well as crimes in the very traditional sense. The SA was short for. Sturmabteilung or storm detachment. Not storm troops. Which were the elite trench raiders of the German empire in ww2
I think one longer video or two shorter videos a day is fine; when they have uploaded multiple 15 minute+ videos a day, that's overwhelming and discourages me from watching them entirely
Most of the Mengela research has been discredited or thrown away due to unethical research, unsubstantiated research, and incomplete research. One of the only research Mengela did that actually survived peer pressure where how to treat hypothermia and how the body react to cold. Mainly because researches have said that the result of research will be unethical in peace time.
@@Kazaam818 how so? Tell me the reason for it. Because 90% of all medical research that the Nazis conducted in their concentration camps has been tampered in criminality, fraud and crimes against humanity
@@marlonmoncrieffe0728 not just peer review. You like infertility treatment, that's his, plus a whole bunch of other medical tests, surgery technology, military tech that is still in use today and for now on.

I am quite confused by this clickbaity title... as far as I know he was never caught, and died unrepentant at the age of 77 in south America of heart failure.
@@Nandopr i dont know why but some countries in south America were cool with letting nazis move in, since if they (nazis) would have stayed on the path they were on, the nazis would have killed them as well.
You might wonder why the nazis were so cruel. The thing most people don't consider about nazis, is that they didn't consider their victims as humans. They weren't cruel and total psychopaths for the most part, they just didn't care about those people. Like, have you ever felt sorry for stepping on a bug? You might not even notice that. This, was their mindset.
It's interesting if you think about it because one of the doctors was actually a good guy that followed the Hippocratic oath and he was called the good doctor of auschwitz instead of killing people he tried to save as many people as he could it's a really interesting
When I was very little maybe 4 and we lived in a an apt in hot springs. We lived next to an much older woman. She had a tattoo on her forearm and burns on her neck and face that ran under her shirt and onto her right shoulder and upper arm. I dont remember alot of talking to her but I remember the tattoo was a number. She was an incredibly sweet woman that when she was 12 years old a man probably my age now threw some sort of chemical on her and group of other workers as they passed by him. I cant recall all of her story but I believe that cruel act costed her mother's life. I remember she was in the (cant spell it right) berkano camp. She used to let me sit on her feet while her and my grandma played bingo. She had soft light blue eyes How could anyone forget such a person. I'm one of the last of the kids who would have met someone like that.
That sounds like a sweet memory! I wish I could have met the women you described. She sounds like a gentle person. I’m glad she was able to find happiness in life after she survived such horrors
Remember that none of these atrocities was enough to get the Americans or the British in the war. Until they got attacked, both watched and hope they wouldnt have to fight. Somewhat disgusting.
The full extent of these actions where not known till the tailing edge of this war of atrocities. You cannot blame nations who just finished fighting a whole other war for being hesitant to fight again.
@@Tiigozz Correction. These examples were different to Auschwitz, they were open air prisons, same as the American examples being used at the same time in the Phillippines, and the first ones used by Spain in Cuba in 1895, copying the US reservations for Indians. The Germans developed these into extermination facilities in 1904 in their colony of Namibia.
Interesting fact, a Hungarian Jewish doctor who worked as Mengele’s assistant, Miklós Nyiszli, wrote a book about what Mengele made him do for him at Auschwitz. This included mostly conducting autopsies on his victims and taking care of his “medical journals/notes”. There was one time he accidentally got grease on his “medical notes” and Mengele flipped out on him and told him not to be careless with something he put so much “love” into. Nyiszli was speechless at the fact Mengele said the word love. I think this truly shows that the only thing Mengele ever loved was himself and his “medical job”. So infuriating he got away and escaped justice.
One of the most frightening things that i see these days is that so many people not only are unaware if these atrocities, they vehemently deny they happened, truly believing they didn't. We are doomed.
Saw a video recently where several Americans were asked when WWI and WWII happened. Not only did most not know, a considerable proportion didn't even know about them at all. I couldn't quite believe it.
And his family still has a business in Germany with his name on the building still up and running, and that it also (allegedly as far as I could find no confirmation this happened) funneled money to him in South America. The fact that family knows what he did and won’t even change the businesses name says they’re perfectly fine with what he did and being associated with that
He was living in the countryside of Brazil. Died of a heart attack in the Bertioga Beach. My Grandpa meet him, when he was living in the city of Nova Europa (New Europe). Crazy story.
Why would you reference his diaries when it was proven that they were forgeries? All the written works of Mengele were destroyed by his son, as he stated, after reading them to his regret. He considered them to have no redeeming value.
It is said that he didn't die by drowning in a pool. What happened was that he went out to the beach with some friends and decided to go for a swim regardless of the conditions he was suffering from and drowned that way.
Yeah, because any 12 year old can sow together the blood vessels of two twins. Certainly not defending him, he was an awful person, but this is just wrong.
The reason we don’t learn about this in school anymore is because history is now dedicated to the study of oppression and hearing oppressed voices. If more people knew about the 1940’s, they’d question if the west was inherently oppressive
When I was in high school we mostly learned about the civil war and world war 2 and barely my favorite topic the Cold War and all the other modern wars or just the war on terror because by that time I was finishing my sophmore year and learning about government and all that boring stuff my junior year
Yes , I never ththought of it as such . Probably because it is in the Old Testament . But like democracy and other constructs, it has come from the minds of men .It is definitely not guaranteed !
Sorry but IMHO, I disagree. Justice is a right, not a socially construct idea. If it was an "idea" like you've said, then would it make sense if it didn't work at all or something that doesn't really exists such as gods and goddesses?
@@tessamitchell7597 to quote darth maul from starwars CW s7 of all things "justice is mearly a construct of the current power base" like justice really isn't guaranteed. it "is" through law, but my god theres 100's of millions of unsolved crimes around the world that will never have an answer or justice applied to it, and that's just....life. like how living to an old age isn't guaranteed or a 'right' by any measure. i like the optimism, but anyway you look at it, ' justice' as we know is a purely a human construct. like male bees or praying mantis' dont hold courts for the females eating their brains or throwing them out of the hive, thats just life.
Because they did not want the Soviets to have his research. But they should have stopped to think abort what he had done and approved and condemned him to death.
I thought that he really got caught. But nah,he lived his life to the fullest all the while enjoying the beautiful and warm sun of the Americas. So then why the title?
That’s what you get when you dehumanize a group of people to the point others see that beliefs, religion, races or simply ideas, are the sole attribute that ontologically define a person. ...like what’s slowly happening right now.
I was 8 or 9 years old while having lunch with my best friend and his family, I noticed his Oma has a wrinkly tattoo on her arm and as a dumb kid said "wow, Oma has a tattoo that's cool"!! I got massive education that day and a massive feed from Oma. Loved that lady..
I absolutely love the way Clarkson described Mengola in the Patagonia special.... "Josef Mengola took his driving lesson here..... failed it apparently"
Why do you call him "angel" when he feels no remorse and empathy the time he hears the screams and sees the suffering of his subject? Normal people would quit their job in this case.
And never a true one. The question is if they just lie to save themselves or if they actually convinced themselves that they were only following orders to cope with their deeds
actualy its proven its studies that people when put in right situation will be forced to follow orders You say that now but if you are forced to do something or die Bet you wont be brave to die
@@tilltronje1623 Well if the dont they get shot. So they choose their life over the lives of making many suffer and die. But these weren't people to him. Like working on monkeys or dogs
Superlative video from my favourite TH-cam channel, I consider myself extremely well informed on Mengele but u presented SO much information I'd never heard b4; thank u 4 the relative peace uv given me knowing 1 of the greatest monsters humanity ever produced had such turbulent and unpleasant final years, all any1 ever says is he escaped justice in South America
Didn't he eventually die of old age? Don't think he served a day in any prison, despite being one of the most evil people to ever live. I'm not exaggerating, he made Vlad The Impaler look friendly by comparison
Thank you for having an accurate narrative of how heinous the crimes were. Some documentaries I listen to create this like “misunderstood and gullible” narrative around Nazis. Which is sickening.
I don't feel like Russian.Soldiers would have been shocked by what they seem festival.Fact.It's pretty much the same stuff.Stalin was doing to his own people at the same exact time.The russians probably were so decent surprised at that point
Truly a deplorable thing the holocaust was. This genocide will crush the souls of peoples for millennia. Just the knowledge of these horrors are enough to make you question it all. So many lost.

America absorbed many former Nazis and German scientists so it was not in the government's interest to teach about the Nazis activities during WW2.
We are pretty ignorant
More Americans know about this than you know... Although it's generally older Americans that know about it
One of the most frightening things that i see these days is that so many people not only are unaware if these atrocities, they vehemently deny they happened, truly believing they didn't. We are doomed.
Saw a video recently where several Americans were asked when WWI and WWII happened. Not only did most not know, a considerable proportion didn't even know about them at all. I couldn't quite believe it.
That's what the modern media want. They rewrite history and change the past so they can repeat it.
If people can't read, they don't know their rights.
Best channel on this platform!
Never forget history, or you shall be doomed to repeat it
Mengele never got caught. He drowned swimming at the beach.
This is great 😃👍 this content is greatness. Continue spreading awareness amongst the people
Can you do one about Second Lieutenant William Calley and the My Lai Massacre?
And his family still has a business in Germany with his name on the building still up and running, and that it also (allegedly as far as I could find no confirmation this happened) funneled money to him in South America. The fact that family knows what he did and won’t even change the businesses name says they’re perfectly fine with what he did and being associated with that
I actually think that the Mengele family descendants just think they don’t deserve to be blamed for what their evil ancestors did
It has been so long since I've seen your channel almost 3 years
He was living in the countryside of Brazil. Died of a heart attack in the Bertioga Beach.
My Grandpa meet him, when he was living in the city of Nova Europa (New Europe). Crazy story.
Why would you reference his diaries when it was proven that they were forgeries? All the written works of Mengele were destroyed by his son, as he stated, after reading them to his regret. He considered them to have no redeeming value.
It is said that he didn't die by drowning in a pool. What happened was that he went out to the beach with some friends and decided to go for a swim regardless of the conditions he was suffering from and drowned that way.
it's crazy how he had a lot of medical experience and knowledge but created and conducted experiments that a 12 year old could accomplish
Yeah, because any 12 year old can sow together the blood vessels of two twins. Certainly not defending him, he was an awful person, but this is just wrong.
What 12 year old could in vent human cloning?
@@tonytiger2914 Mengele for sure had never succeeded in human cloning.
This is what happens when a person that doesn’t know what they are talking about makes a comment.
@@ssherrierable hope that's not about me, as I have first hand knowledge of of Dr mengle's genetic experiments
The reason we don’t learn about this in school anymore is because history is now dedicated to the study of oppression and hearing oppressed voices. If more people knew about the 1940’s, they’d question if the west was inherently oppressive
When I was in high school we mostly learned about the civil war and world war 2 and barely my favorite topic the Cold War and all the other modern wars or just the war on terror because by that time I was finishing my sophmore year and learning about government and all that boring stuff my junior year
Facts
Ah, yes. Because "at least we're not Auschwitz" is totally the standard we should be aiming for.
Never forget that Justice is a man-made idea. Appreciate it when it works.
Yes , I never ththought of it as such . Probably because it is in the Old Testament . But like democracy and other constructs, it has come from the minds of men .It is definitely not guaranteed !
Sorry but IMHO, I disagree. Justice is a right, not a socially construct idea. If it was an "idea" like you've said, then would it make sense if it didn't work at all or something that doesn't really exists such as gods and goddesses?
@@tessamitchell7597 to quote darth maul from starwars CW s7 of all things "justice is mearly a construct of the current power base" like justice really isn't guaranteed. it "is" through law, but my god theres 100's of millions of unsolved crimes around the world that will never have an answer or justice applied to it, and that's just....life. like how living to an old age isn't guaranteed or a 'right' by any measure. i like the optimism, but anyway you look at it, ' justice' as we know is a purely a human construct. like male bees or praying mantis' dont hold courts for the females eating their brains or throwing them out of the hive, thats just life.
I love your channel keep up the great stuff
Japan also had Someone like Dr. Mengele during WW2. Dr. Ishii Shiro.
He didn’t get trialed. He just had to give all his discoveries to the Americans.
Because they did not want the Soviets to have his research. But they should have stopped to think abort what he had done and approved and condemned him to death.
The animations of the characters in the illustrations have become so smooth. Tho still not as smooth as Santana
?
Lol
Nothing could ever be as smooth as Santana
What's that
The infographic show should do a video on the Japanese internment camps during ww2.
Or even better, one on unit 731.
Just found this channel today been binge watching it for hours now while doing stuff around the house
Ty for the great content
I thought that he really got caught. But nah,he lived his life to the fullest all the while enjoying the beautiful and warm sun of the Americas. So then why the title?
Why is it that all these Men were cowards, and that You don’t hear about Any of them wanting to take Accountability for Their actions?
The girl he was speaking of Ava lived in my home town in Indiana. There is a museum there of what happened in the camp
That’s what you get when you dehumanize a group of people to the point others see that beliefs, religion, races or simply ideas, are the sole attribute that ontologically define a person.
...like what’s slowly happening right now.
its not lol
@thethugshaker6115 Clearly you've been ignoring all of history, including and especially 2017 and after
I was 8 or 9 years old while having lunch with my best friend and his family, I noticed his Oma has a wrinkly tattoo on her arm and as a dumb kid said "wow, Oma has a tattoo that's cool"!!
I got massive education that day and a massive feed from Oma. Loved that lady..
"INFAMOUS BUTCHER, ANGEL OF DEATH" ~Slayer
8:32 my god, I didn’t realize the number was that high. I never thought something as horrific as this could fade from our minds.
It can when you let society do so
it's just sad
I absolutely love the way Clarkson described Mengola in the Patagonia special.... "Josef Mengola took his driving lesson here..... failed it apparently"
I went to see Eva kor several years ago I had the honor of hearing her story
Well finally a video that at least mentions there were other groups that were treated the same way in the camps
Why do you call him "angel" when he feels no remorse and empathy the time he hears the screams and sees the suffering of his subject? Normal people would quit their job in this case.
Yeah, like the angel of death...
Isn't the devil an angel
@@AgentOffice Lucifer morning star is the fallen angel. Satan would be considered to be the devil. They are not the same things
@@shadeslayervii9427 no way I thought they were the same
The term angel of death for mass murders is because they send people to heaven.
In these types of situations, I become a true believer in the saying, "an eye for an eye."
He didn’t die whilst swimming in a pool, he died swimming down at a beach with a family…
What!?!? He went over 30 years without being caught???
I like how simple and informative this channel can be.
You guys are better than the Ancient Aliens channel, I mean History Channel.
"Least we forget"
It was a good book
What's insane is how awful everything is but how many medical advances we gained because of everything he did it's very evil but we learned a lot
Mengele lived until 1979?!?!? 😠
yes bestie I always love your videos
"Just following orders"; the excuse of many evil people who have and presently are committing insane crimes against other humans...
And never a true one. The question is if they just lie to save themselves or if they actually convinced themselves that they were only following orders to cope with their deeds
actualy its proven its studies that people when put in right situation will be forced to follow orders You say that now but if you are forced to do something or die Bet you wont be brave to die
@@tilltronje1623 Well if the dont they get shot. So they choose their life over the lives of making many suffer and die. But these weren't people to him. Like working on monkeys or dogs
@@Thesaurcery4U2C I just said it is false. Them you come in and go "but but but shot aaah"
Learn to read
6million jews died but barely anyone ever talks about the 6 million Poles that died among them
Superlative video from my favourite TH-cam channel, I consider myself extremely well informed on Mengele but u presented SO much information I'd never heard b4; thank u 4 the relative peace uv given me knowing 1 of the greatest monsters humanity ever produced had such turbulent and unpleasant final years, all any1 ever says is he escaped justice in South America
He didn't get caught. He had a heart attack while swimming and drowned. His body was identified.
Didn't he eventually die of old age? Don't think he served a day in any prison, despite being one of the most evil people to ever live. I'm not exaggerating, he made Vlad The Impaler look friendly by comparison
Thank you for having an accurate narrative of how heinous the crimes were. Some documentaries I listen to create this like “misunderstood and gullible” narrative around Nazis. Which is sickening.
This channel is better than anything you can buy on TV! Amazing 👏 keep it up. I'm a viewer for life!
I’m sure many kids in history class use infographics channel.
Better than what I had. Waitin' 20 minutes for the teacher to load up the film projector.
Fun fact:
The song “Angel of Death” by Slayer is about this dude.
Slayer 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
REALLY???
He was never caught, he escaped the hangman.
I have a book called the people of the holocaust and it talks about the angel of death
thanks for the video but it is sad
Good thing i live in denmark and learned about this in school
me too, cheers from Poland bro
I like the advice about Tyranny at the end. Well said infographics
Soundtrack for this infographic animation , Slayer - Angel of Death.
Wonderful video
He also talked about briefly in a book called man’s search for meaning.
He showed up, like this-> PRESENT!
They should do a video about the Hmong people during the secret war and the aftermath
A survivor once said. "If there is a god, he will have to beg for my forgiveness."
25:04 typographical error Mengele's dairy instead of diary!!!
I don't feel like Russian.Soldiers would have been shocked by what they seem festival.Fact.It's pretty much the same stuff.Stalin was doing to his own people at the same exact time.The russians probably were so decent surprised at that point
Truly a deplorable thing the holocaust was. This genocide will crush the souls of peoples for millennia. Just the knowledge of these horrors are enough to make you question it all. So many lost.
Millenia? No, maybe just another century, then it will fade away almost completely. A century is pretty generous too
@@yorampaar2011 naw b you don’t know what your even saying.
No, that is not enough to question it. This atrocity happened and questioning these facts is an insult to the victims
@@tilltronje1623 You misunderstood what they were saying
@@Thesaurcery4U2C nice try
Nice video.
