What if the RAF had lost the Battle of Britain? Would the Brits have been overrun? Would the Nazis have won the Second World War? Top historians debate one of the biggest what-ifs in history: th-cam.com/video/OaH2-g04cIA/w-d-xo.html
Nazis would have won if they were able to defeat the Russians during Barbarossa or pursue the atomic bomb in advance. Remember Soviets sacrificed more during the war. If not for them German will be the standard language
"What if" Rudolp Hess had actually been heard rather than incarcerated, Winston Churchill wouldn't have become as wealthy, millions of lives would have been saved, Poland wouldn't have come under Soviet domination (wasn't Polish freedoms the reason we went to war?), Palestine would have still become Israel which is really what this was all about.
The choice to use silence instead of ambient music was so profoundly fitting. The silence of those lives, snuffed out. Silence of the weight of grief and sin against so many. The silence of words not ever being enough. And the silence of that which must never be again.
My grandfather had a jewelry store in Rome, one day the natzis were marching in and as my grandfather was closing the shop a young Jewish man from the resistance slipped in the store begging for a change of clothes. My grandfather gave him a coat, and he slipped away, smiling at his daughter. Four years later after the end of the war he came back to give him his coat back, and to marry his daughter, my aunt....
i nursed a survivor of these camps back in 1988. still after 43 years he was terrified of hospitals and what it might mean to be admitted. you could feel his terror. it really brought home the horrors of what happened.
There's a book called Windswept Lies of War, and it talks from censored history and hidden secrets to lost files and classified documents about World War II, it's the real deal.
To everyone saying we should learn from this so we dont repeat the pas, is literally happening right now in other countries. Nobody has learned anything at all
That's because of all the idiots who are trying to destroy all the monuments of the past. Those should be left standing, it's part of history, and if you destroy it there is nothing left to remind you.
The domestic terrorists who believe in the supremacy of the white race create a fertile ground for inhumanity against one another. It is but the smallest step into the world within concentration camp walls.
Just think if God did not create this world in the first place we will not be here in the first place be thankful that we are born in this world and that when we die if we receive the gift of life will be with him in heaven
I just visited Auschwitz-Birkenau 2 weeks ago and it was the most unbelievable experience of my life. This documentary absolutely hit home the horror that I could not grasp even being there in person. Thank you for such a moving, honest production.
I want to take my son there when he's older.. He's 9, and he's already started learning about it.. NOT my choice, he drew a swastika as he thought it was a funky design for a window.. He washed the post he drew it on and got an age appropriate history lesson..
@@desertdaisymarie6951 I used to draw them too when I was about your son's age. I had absolutely no idea what it meant. Like your son, I though they were a "cool" design. 😥
@@judeflowers2813I thought the same when I was a little kid. Then Indiana Jones took the “cool” spot. And got me more interested in history. Same with the video games like the GameCube era medal of honors. They all got me wayyy more interested. Then I found out that they’re disgusting torturing racists without morals and ethics
I also visited Auschwitz’s and it was the most haunted place I’ve ever been. We had a wonderful guide that was very informative. But I have never forgotten Auschwitz’s. I read history and watch history documentaries as much as I can. They really don’t teach history until you decide to read it yourself. It’s just so sad what happened to these helpless people especially the children. 😢 7:16
I visited Auschwitz in winter, I wore multiple layers and jumper/thick coat, scarf, gloves, woolly hat, 3 pairs of socks, the lot... It was freezing cold and you couldn't escape the wind chill because it was such an open area, it was basically when it hit me for real how horrendous it all must have been for them.
How people could be this horrid to other human beings is incomprehensible to me . This documentary not only educated me about a period of time that I knew very little about but also gave me a new appreciation of my life and how fortunate I really am to be able to live it .
They weren't this cruel to other human beings, to them they were subhuman and their enemy. All you need to do is convince yourself they're the bad guy and you're no longer the cruel torturer and aggressor. Now you're the defender and avenger so you can be excused taking delight in handing out just punishment. It's easy to see how it works, if you can't understand it it's because you don't want to.
@@TheTurinturumbarwe understand how it works.. regardless they were still doing it to human beings.. i just recently heard that they are trying 90+ year old nazis.. which is great. No one should get away with this
I was 6 years old when I asked my grandfather what the numbers on his arm was for he told me it was from a different time and a different life and told not to worry that life would not come back I'm now 44 and he is gone and I'm glad because he doesn't have to see what is being done in Ukraine his home R.I.P.
Ukrainians were eager helpers in the Holocaust (of course not all of them). Nationalist militia, local police, Trawniki men, locals who betrayed their jewsih neighbours, etc...
Praying for Ukraine and her people. I’m glad your Grandfather too is not here to see what is happening in his country. I can’t imagine how his heart would feel to be broken once again... blessings from afar.
I'm sorry but comparing the holocaust to what is happening in Ukraine is disrespectful to holocaust survivors. They are not comparable. Nothing is comparable to the holocaust.
I worked in Krakow in 1998 to 2000 and visited Aushwitz 1 & 2 about 40 miles away a number of times. It's a tragic place, there's no birds at all, as if they know whats occurred there and stayed away out of fear or respect. RIP all who died.
I've visited the Auschwitz concentration camp when I was around 10 years old with my partents to pay respects to our family members who were murdered there during the war. I will never forget the immediate feeling of terror and anxiety as soon as you walk through the entrance gate. It's like this very dark and heavy energy that latches itself to you and doesn't want to let go. I had nightmares for weeks following that day. That place broke me completely and I refuse to go there ever again. I think once in a lifetime is enough.
@@sugiton13 Of course it's not a recreational place. Why would you even say that? I sorry but when is someone ready to go to a literall death camp? Honey it's impossible to control your emotions in a place like that. No matter if you are 10 or 70 years old.
I worked in raisin dryers and would cart trays full of grapes in 30ft tunnels and always got an erie feeling like the crematoriums used by the Germans 🙏
@@denisespottedhorse2774 don't forget the Democratic south is who gave us the civil war, kkk and Jim crow laws not to mention the African chiefs who sold them but does not compare to the suffering of the Jews not even close so don't compare the two plus more blacks die at each other's hands I know my history and current news 🙄
An elder neighbour survived Auschwitz as a child...She described tp me her terror of Alsatian dogs , and of seeing snow through tiny cracks in the train cattle truck. She said the sounds of trains {especially slow goods type trains} and train steam whistles take her right back to those bad days. It must have been one of the worst place on Earth for a human to endure.
@@BalboaBaggins Eat grass fed beef and look for the animal welfare sign on meat packages. This is a good start to supporting humanity and you will feel better with great tastes.
This is one of the most effective documentaries I’ve watched on this subject. Seeing it through the eyes of the victims, with all the “mundane” details that often are missed, brings it home that this was real.
@@vladimirolujic6637 you should absolutely visit it. Something about seeing it in real space with your own 2 eyes and being able to reach out and touch the gas chambers will ground this as Real as it gets.
The horror of war, real war!! All the war mongers should be forced to listen to these vids. Only psychopath loves war, and who ever initiate a war, must be considered as a criminals. Another is, when thhe narrator said that even with such horrific condition, there's only a few suicides. Compared to nowadays, almost every day we got suicide, even the wealthiest. I wonder if the living condition today are actually worse than those World War days??..
I agree, because three years ago I watched a guy asking this question to some university students, "do you know about the holocaust"? Answers by all of them was, "that never happened", others "that a tale", yet others said, "no prove of it ever happening". I was shocked! These students were been this asked while walking on campus. This proves that our children are been thought to ignore the past, some people want to erase history all together.
@@nevrobinson8530 It's sort of funny to find out, that the practise of communist regime, to supress the parts of the history not suitable for, it is actually practise in so called democratic systems... It shows that some practises brings advantages to any group in power regardless it's official statements...
@@opinionsvary Well, mostly, I agree. Just doubt, that the emotions prevent us from the truth really (at least if you want to tell it objectively), I think what prevents us much more is our own memory, meaning the stories of the witnesses. And not enough, then comes the censorship from politics and ideology.
I have visited Auschwitz and the atmosphere was dark and filled with pain and death. It was one of the worst experiences in my life. I just wanted to cry , the horror, the pain of these suffering people was so heavy and I could feel it. History must never repeat itself.
history will repeat itself thanks to current european leaders , persistently ignoring their own population and overloading their countries with foreign criminals and haters who only come to destroy and suck europe dry ; resulting in pre-war situations that will spark a new prime leader. all thanks to currentday leaders who could not care less for their own people and country .
you are correct and the world forgot and it will be relived soon especially here in my beloved America. so many idiots are erasing history here and that is a mistake
@@Jafarvakattoor The Nazis were explicitly non-religious. That was a large part of their philosophy and world-view. Also, without state religion, the hierarchy of nazism was protected from other authorities which might cause divided loyalty. (ie: God or Allah) So, they were NOT C(h?)ristian.
These are compelling first hand accounts of harrowing and barbaric inhuman suffering. That these people lived to tell their stories is testament to the strength of their will to survive at all costs. Thank you for making this film, it is an important documentation for future generations to learn what really happened, and never to see such times ever again.
And sometimes we complain about not eating enough during a day, and these poor human beings didn't eat for days, maybe weeks,they felt so happy when they saw the US military, in another video one of the prisoners was kissing the hand of a soldier, and the narrator said some have expressed it was the messiah coming to save them. It really painful yo see all these evil things taking place.
I have in the past worked with holocaust survivors.One lady showed me the numbers still tattooed on her arm.It broke my heart for her,then when she said she was the only one to survive in her family I was crushed.I will never forget her,never.
We had a survivor at my school once. She was the last one of her family since she was the only girl. She got separated from her 3 brothers, mother and father once they got off the train. When I saw her number tattoo is when it hit me that she was beyond lucky to be there to tell us her story.
"Crushed", like the testicles of all but two of the victims of the evil mockery of justice that was Nuremberg. Is that the kind of "crushed" you mean? It was done with hammers.
And happening again today and all of the last year. Starting with the elderly and special needs people who are also told they will be not resucitated if they get the new germ
The blood, sweat, tears and fear are forever soaked into these horrific facilities that took the lives of so many innocent people. They will never be forgotten! When people think their life is bad just think about what these people had to go through. My heart goes out to this time in history.
Right, they was talking about anxiety and depression n going crazy n stuff n people today say their "tired" tired of what you worked 8 hrs sitting in a chair....could you imagine doing manual labor w broken ribs 🤯
Going without a meal is no big deal . But to have no real food for months and years is in another level of starvation. I'll never ever complain about being hungry ever again. Lest we forget
I often wonder, in light of this historical evidence, if we aren't grossly underestimating the statistics around the number of sociopaths in any given culture.
D Kendall , sociopaths and far left over the top pc behavior is about control, maybe it could also include narcissism and misplaced anger in that case.
@@mrvapor4791 Was in Vad Vashem, some years ago. In the Hall of Names you can see a picture of young boy in lederhosen, very sad! You say, that not all evil was overcome with Hitler's death?
I applaud all of those who took time to watch this and learn about this tragedy. Make no mistake, those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. This is a time period we need to learn and know in its entirety so as not to allow any government or group to try this again. Unfortunately, it could.
The current administration of the American Govt. has devotees of " reeducation camps " and we know how they treat the unborn AND how they treated those helpless patients in nursing homes.
@@disgustedvet9528 I agree, but most people refuse to see the similarities. Everyone is cool with all thats happening because it does not affect them or they go along with the program because it will cost them something to do otherwise. And Jesus wept.
Dear Heavenly Father, please help all those who have suffered and who are suffering. Jesus weeps to see how we treat one another. Genocide is happening right now! The following are just a few examples: In China the Uygers (sorry if misspelled) are in concentration camps: the Chinese government refers to this as “re-education centers” the few who have escaped report unimaginable horrors. In Myanmar, the Muslim minority who have lived in the western end of the country for countless generations are being murdered by the government’s agents. Thousands have fled to Bangladesh where they live in squalid refugee camps & they are not welcome. With increasing numbers of people who flee there, the amount of vicious retaliatory acts of violence are rising. Then you have the horrors of Sudan. (anyone recall the heartbreaking experiences of “the Lost Boys” ? just one horrific example of the terrors that country has seen over the last 4 decades!) Anyone who reads reputable sources for their news knows of these examples and could quote many more. Our species has not learned from the tragedies of the past and we see this sick behavior which compels humans to kill or irrevocably maim those whom they perceive as “other” continually repeated.
@@decruzyserao6994 So true. ''Othering'' is very dangerous. ~Religion, Race and Tribe seem to be the worst reasons. People trying to force their beliefs on others. People should be left in peace to practice whatever religion they believe in, and not try to force others. It is terrible the cruelties done to humans by other humans, because of ideology &c.
It started pitting one group against another. If you could spread this hatred that is what caused this evil. People need to watch this in our country even now. Our country is doing this same thing. Nobody thinks it can happen again. How wrong they are!
When my ex girlfriend's mother was in the hospital she had a roommate. The roommate was an elderly woman who had survived Auschwitz. I asked her why she kept staring at me. She told me I looked just like the American soldier who rescued her from Auschwitz. She showed me the tattoos the Nazis branded her with. The sadness in her eyes I will never forget. God bless her and all human beings who have been senselessly murdered or abused. I hope she is still alive and healthy today.
At first I thought the slow pace of this documentary was a little annoying, but further in I understood that it was making the survivor statements more impactful, allowing the details time to sink in. It works.
TheLeadSled I used to work with MP in the U.S. Army reserve at my old shop (I'm a car mechanic). He'd leave for a few months a year to serve, and the last time he went (while we still worked together) he spent some time in Germnay and Poland, and went to see Auschwitz. Now this guy was not relgious, nor did he believe in any spiritual matters like metaphysics. But he told us that, despite it being warm out in July, the moment he stepped into some of those buildings he felt a deeply unsettling chill in the air. This soldier is a large, extremely strong, and fearless young guy, but he said it felt as if all the suffering and death that took place there had sunk into and stained the surroundings, and it deeply unsettled him. He'd served and fought in Afghanistan and Iraq... but Auschwitz disturbed him. Scared him even. How poisoned with misery, torment, brutality, and mass murder must the place have been to affect him so badly...
The prostitutes were being raped daily. I don't like how this woman acts like she had it worse then them. Humanity is self-centered, selfish. This will keep on happening over and over. Throughout history it has. Way before this holocaust and to this day.
To treat fellow human beings so sadistically and to cause such unimaginable anguish and pain is unfathomable but continues to happen from time to time. There are obviously worse things than death and there's also plenty of twisted people who would reenact these atrocities given similar circumstances.
With all due respect, even though genocides still do occur, nothing has been even close to the industrialized murder machine the Nazis manufactured. There were hundreds of concentration camps and torture facilities and the einsatzgruppen. It was a modern day Spanish Inquisition times a million.
@Evil Frasier I’ve actually known survivors. For whatever your reasons, you want or need to deny. That’s up to you. For the relatives and people I’ve known, I face reality.
this ideology of genocide, sitting in judgement a narcissistic view of lifestyle, class, religion, still exists in todays society. It is how we deal with what we see and observe around us everyday that will ensure this horrific, tragic evil will never happen again. No one is safe from this evil, it is only a theory away. Peace love and understanding.
@@crf80fdarkdays as long as we teach about the US locking up Japanese-Americans as well. I'm not even serious: I'm just illustrating that you bringing up another country's atrocities is beside the point. This is about Auschwitz.
Filming this in winter, and having saved so many of the original buildings makes this the most realistic description of prisoner/ worker life I have ever seen.. Truly a form of torture just to work outside in thin clothing in this weather. Very moving.
*"You are all under a deferred sentence of death"* that sent chills down my spine. Over six million innocent people savagely murdered. Never forget them.
Does it make you feel better to say “Never forget them”? I don’t think that there is any risk that they will be forgotten, so this is an easy platitude to throw out so that you can identify as a compassionate person. But, what are YOU doing to help those TODAY in similar circumstances? What monies have you donated to help such people and what risks have YOU taken? Perhaps you can back up your platitude with actual action, but if not, you are just being lazy typing in an easy, throw away response. Perhaps you can do some research and let the rest of us know what you and the rest of us should be doing so that we are not just saying “never forget” as if that is some type of brave statement. It is just too easy to type “never forget” and then go about your life feeling good about yourself.
I watched this, my emotions swinging from absolute horror and revulsion to overwhelming anger and sadness. I just can't understand how it happened, I will never understand. I thought about stopping watching it several times, I wanted to turn away, but these people couldn't turn away from it, they had to live it. I mourn them, I am horrified that this happened to them. I wish I could have helped.
People capable of compassion and with conscience and morality cannot understand those incapable of compassion and devoid of such characteristics. It's foolish to even try.
I've grown to accept as much as I've grown to learn just how sick and sadistic people really are. I've seen things, things that no child should see when conditioned to believe that he/she is safe and that everyone is harmless. How I wish that were the case. I too was conditioned to believe that no man nor woman could do such horrific things to another person. Unfortunately, it just made the real truth much harder to accept. Do not hesitate to fight back. It is either your life or theirs. Do not cooperate nor shed a single tear. Give yourself your all because death isn't something you should be afraid of. It is simply the fear of not having the chance to live.
Yes...somewhere along the line, we started to be told that everyone is good and that there is no evil, as if the second world was a magic wand. Now where you accuse or suspect others of having nefarious intent... if you are targeted or harmed by someone you, the victim, get labelled an abuser for complaining about your treatment / telling. Somewhere along the line those being harmed became labelled perpetrators for standing up for themselves and for trying to secure justice in the face of abuse...
Absolutely brutal. These stories are sickening. I cannot even believe these poor people endured these atrocities. It is truly depressing and disgusting.
Over 40 years ago I read a paper back book entitled simply "Auschwitz". It was so riveting, and unbelievable, I was in such disbelief I could not put it down. Details of the inhumane acts performed by Dr. Josef Mengele were incomprehensible. I was about twenty-four years old when I read the book and I don't even remember how I came about having it in my possession. I knew about this unspeakable time in history and the horrendous acts committed by Hitler's regime, but this small paper back book enlightened me to so much more. It is still inconceivable how one man so filled with such hatred against other human beings managed to build an army that also followed his rule. I am not Jewish but I have many Jewish friends. I have always considered "Jewish" as a religion rather than a race. There are no words to express the sadness I feel for all those who had to experience such degrading, inhumane treatment, those who lost their lives, or the anger and disgust toward those responsible for the same. To those who managed to have "survived", thank you for sharing your stories. The world needs to know the truth.
Next time I get up for work I'm going to count my blessings, that I'm going to work and get paid and have a break and lunch.RIP to all those who died and survive that attrocetie
If you had ever served time it is amazing how many people leaving prison after working for 5 cents an hour go out and work at minimum wage jobs and are quite happy to become educated and get a lot more money for working as a trades person.
I was a small child when my father was a bombardier in the European theater. The second world war is by no means a distant memory. The liberation of Auschwitz was taught to us in school. There were no disbelievers as there are now. The films of emaciated and dead men and women are vivid in my memory.
My father worked with the Red Cross in the American zone of Germany in 1945/6 around 3000 german people mostly children and woman and old men died everyday of cold lack of food and illness about 5 million died in the western zone between 1945 and 1947 You will see no tv programmes about this but it happened.
@@johnsmith-mq4eq That’s interesting. 3,000 helpless Germans every day? Really? Hitlers doing? Please elaborate and give proof. I’m always interested in TRUTH
It continues to amaze me that this could ever have happened, but of course it did. It shows you that no one should ever be given power over others, because there are sociopaths hiding in every society.
What's amusing is that you'd think with all that suffering they'd want peace, yet the survivors went back to their lives & treated their Palestinian citizens like dogs. To me that's not learning.
This is one the best documentaries I have seen. Being Polish, barely a teenager I visited the museum in '80s. Untill today the room with human hair and shoes is still enbedded in my memory.
@@angelicupstart1977 yes, upstart, you are correct, the "civilized countries"...Erwin rommel would have solved a lot of problems if he had turned the afrika corps due south and cleaned the place up.
How did people survive this? How? How? How? I bet many wished they could just die - quickly. I’ve heard that the Nazis made sure to keep items from people that could’ve allowed them to take their own lives. Make no mistake, I’m glad people survived, I just can’t imagine what they went through. My mind can’t grasp these horrific conditions.
@@yourfabuloushappymann5154 I looked up Dark on the internet and Mr. Wiesel included this said to him in the camps, “Here there are no fathers, no brothers, no friends. Everyone lives and dies for himself alone." That struck my heart. Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll order it.
Throughout my working life, I have had to some times perform dangerous work in harsh and arduous conditions. However, I was always conscious that I was a Freeman working by choice and not a slave under threat of death. I humbly and with gratitude thank all those who suffered and sacrificed in the Allied cause giving us that precious Freedom which we often take for granted.
So many people think they have it so bad and never stop to think how so many people before us suffered tremendously. Even now with covid, people have been through much much worse in history.
There was a book I read about a Jewish doctor in Auschwitz who tells of how people were treated during his studies versus in the camps. In his studies, the students were told to respect the dead bodies they studied from. It went something along the lines of "Dead bodies were treated with more dignity than the living were in Auschwitz." I can't remember the name of the book but it was haunting
Instead of giving people the day off for Remembrance Day this is exactly what should be shown the world over to keep the moral and memory of those who were murdered front and centre. This was very well done.
so you want to forget about the men who died to fight against those forces of evil ? what good does it do to remember only who you want ? who are you to tell us what to think ? what about 6 million Ukrainians murdered by stalin ? the amerikans have slaughtered 6 million Vietnamese men , women and children and babies and 2 million Iraqi murdered very recently . nothing changes .
As a brazilian, I'm so ashamed an embarassed this monster called Menguele has lived part of his life and died in my country without our authorities know. I many times went to same beach (Bertioga) where he has drowned. I can imagine a lot of people around, having fun, with no idea that old man was the death angel of Auschwitz.
@@shawndouglass2939 obviously not, but it was a pretty substantial number that died. Who know's what will happen next with the technology we have now, that's a scary thought. Hopefully world war 3 never happens. Unfortunately that's wishful thinking.
This video was so powerful. Opening with just empty cargo trains and just the noise of a train.. empty yet our minds can imagine the horrifying treatmentof those within. Then the voices of this who survived this horror! 👏Bravo!
I went to Auschwitz, and it was a particularly strange experience stepping inside one of the surviving gas chambers as a tourist. They ushered three tour groups into the gas chamber at the same time; we had an English guide but other groups spoke in German - the guides spoke quite loudly to be heard. It felt wrong that so many curious people were crammed into that final terrifying place, ogling the clawed scratch marks on the walls. But I suppose going there is the best way to learn.
I've been to both Auschwitcz and Dachau, I will say the tours were very different. Dachau received women from Auschwitcz routinely to keep with gender separate norms. Hygiene was deplorable and prisoners were tasked to kill their own. Truly almost the worst of the camps.
@Zephyrshep: As long as we do not have the ability to recognize the power-hungry who perpetrate such disasters. Beware of any politician who seeks power without seeking to make sure other people live a better life.

Did you say that when the U.S. and its many European cohorts falsely invade, killing millions of innocent children, invading Libya, Iraq, Syria? Often with the blessings of the media propaganda, the general public, and the same old narrative, "We are bringing democracy of that part of the region", etc. Of course not, those deaths of justifiable. Those people are trying to take away our liberty. But you or anyone could tell me how many countries Iran, Libya, or Iraq invaded. Perhaps you nor the average American tell me that number of troops that Iran, Libya, and/or Syria has on other countries borders? NONE. American on the other hand has troops and military bases on almost every country in the world. WHY. To protect DEMOCRACY....Again, the often echoed narrative. LIES, LIES, AND MORE LIES.
Looks what's happening in the world today. Polorization and political extremism on the rise. Governments taking away freedom of speech. Entire race demographics being made scapegoats for societies problems. I fear we will definitely see a worse holocaust in the 21st century. Imagine this coupled with modern technology like databases, mass surveillance and drones truly terrifying
I don’t understand. Why God would allow such terrible treatment of his so-called chosen people But then there’s a lot I don’t understand about a lot of things🙈🙉🙊
@@beverlykennedy126 God gave all of us the greatest gift of all when He gave us freedom of choice. He didn't want us to be mindless robots, but in order to have freedom of choice there needed to be something to choose between. There were loads of trees in the garden of Eden with fruit on that God said Adam and Eve could eat from, but He told them there was one tree that they should not eat from - the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Adam and Eve chose to go against God's word and eat from the one forbidden tree and, unfortunately, from that moment on everything changed and sin came into the world. Because we now live in a sin stricken world, God gave us the ten commandments which, if we all kept them, would make life here absolutely wonderful for the most part, but so few of us choose to keep them. The Germans had a choice of whether to carry out their evil acts or not. Whenever one looks into evil atrocities going on in the world, there will always be a choice that was made. Thankfully, the allies chose to fight this evil force and liberated so many in these vile death camps. God sees everything. People that chose to do evil will eventually be punished accordingly. Why did this happen to Jews, supposedly God's 'chosen' people? Maybe they were the only ones strong enough to bear what went on. I don't know. I know I couldn't have endured a fraction of what some of these survivors endured.
Everyone seems to forget. The people who committed these crimes werent some kind of mystery monsters. They were everyday humans. They were your friends. They were your family. They werent doing this to a mysterious foreign group of people. But to their fellow citizen. Their fellow German. Normal people, when scared and defensive, will commit the most atrocious acts without question. And let's never forget the massive disease testing campaign that took place and the diseases these people were accused of spreading. Typhis. Syphilis. To ramp up that fear. And to justify the segregating and atrocities to come. The mass psychosis caused by mass hypochondria is far too frequently the precursor to atrocities. And we have learned nothing.
We learn from history what we don’t learn from history. “All great changes in America starts around the dinner table”. Teach your children well because history is being rewritten.
The evil that man is capable is simply incomprehensible. This period in the world's history must NEVER be forgotten. And, should be taught in every school. How anyone could give this a thumbs down is astounding to me.
My heart tears for all lost souls, as a mom of three I feel for all the innocent children who’s lives were cut short can’t imagine what went through their innocent minds as it happened Rest In Peace beautiful children to all the moms who endured dead with your children you were brave to protect them to the end.

My mother died in sept on the 27th mum was 95. She told me how she had watched clips before it was made public to the then public of GB! I had never watched this until now and whilst I had seen programmes,it had never brought home to me the shocking and chilling lives those poor souls had had to endure! Even to this day, we can never forgot the suffering they had back then! It does not even bear thinking about what they all endured! Sigh!
My grandma was chosen to be gassed with her mother and sister. They were ahead in the line and died, then the allieds stormed in and grandma was saved. She walked 400 km home. She was a fighter spirit and a sunny soul and she's badly missed now.
Domi KM - oh my gosh - I have similar history in my family too - horrendous doesn’t even begin to describe the atrocities. I have no words - peace to you and your family.
It still astounds me that so few took control of so many. I’ve been there and seen it and it just is so horrific and it isn’t even the only time in human history. It’s just one event of such atrocities.
My children's grandmother - a German, as a young girl, was in a German concentration camp together with her mother. They were all given one potato each day for food. My children's great grandmother gave up her potatoes to her child in hopes that she would survive and that she did. Many years later as an adult, she had problems dealing with everything that had transpired. She committed suicide sometime after becoming an American.
i read accounts that german people were treated abysmally especially immediately after the war, sent to other places to work, shoehorned into fields and basically starved to death, it wasnt only 'ethnics' who were murdered..
they kept criminal Germans there but did not execute them. they did not get number tattoos and had an upside down green triangle to distinguish them from others.
This has to be the most beautifully narrated documentary i ever heard..One of the most beautiful anyway. The tragedy behind it has no limits and the lecture itself kept me at the edge of the seat ..i shared it.
THE DOCUMENTARY WAS WITHOUT A DOUBT GUT WRENCHING TO WATCH.. THE SCENE WHERE THEIR VALUABLES WERE CONFISCATED BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES.. IN PARTICULAR WHERE IT SHOWED A PILE OF PROSTHETICS.. EMPTY SHOES.. HAIR BRUSHES ETC.. GOD BLESS THOSE WHO PERISHED THERE .. AND THE FEW SURVIVORS
I think this is the most saddening, angering, enraging,disturbing, and totally disgusting documentary I have ever seen, I can’t even imagine what they went through.
These people endured this sick behavior perpetrated upon them for approximately 4-5years & everyone thinks that this is the cruelest time in our history & believe that this history should be mandatory learning in our education system & yet America & many other countries enslaved persons of color & treated them with this same cruelty for 400 years & no one seems to cry out in their defense or feel that it should be required learning in our education system. Interesting.
I like the way the speakers have a pause after every statement...it gives one time to digest what has just been said. Enjoyable (if that's the word?) documentary
Such sadistic cruelty never gets easier to watch through each retelling. How - how these annihilating captors slept at night will forever baffle me. May all these poor souls rest in peace.
You said it this really is needed I‘m a Gen X’er. When I was in high school, during junior and senior year as we were reviewing European history our history teacher was able to have a Holocaust survivor come in and speak to us which was a gift one year it was a man the following year it was a woman. They told us their experiences as intimately as was done in this horrific yet poignantly presented documentary. They patiently answered my classmates questions. We are not Jewish (I was in Catholic school) I think the Franciscans who taught us to have respect for all people know matter their ethnicity or religion. I don’t know about other Catholic schools but we were taught about every major religion and we were taught to have respect for all of us are children of God. I know as a Catholic but there are other sects that do not embody the teachings of Saint Francis of Assisi I consider myself blessed and fortunate to have had such beautiful monks and nuns who not only saw to our intellectual growth but to our spiritual and emotional growth as well. I read as recently as six months ago that’s the current generation of millennials‘, many only a few years younger than me and my generation; as many as 40% do not believe that the holocaust ever occurred My God My God, forgive them for they know not what they do💔
When I was stationed in Berlin, I had the chance to visit a camp. It still seemed surreal to me. I also saw the wall when it was still up. I cried when it was finally knocked down. I still have trouble processing that these horrible things actually occurred.
I was taken to Belson aged 8 years old by my Father. As a child the one aspect that occurred to me on my visit was that I didn't hear any bird song though trees were abundant surrounding the Camp.
When we do things such as teardown and remove Civil War statues or rename streets and schools, I can’t help but to think that we are opening the doors for things like this and Civil War to happen again. Keep history alive.
That's exactly right. There are those who wish to put those who don't agree with them through this same horror! Evil like this still exists. It's only a matter of time before it rears it's ugly head.
It is strange, if you are educated and modern, and consider yourself an equal to every other man or woman, to want to build new monuments or statues or revere old ones: idolatry is a complex term, not just religious but psychological and I find idolatry grotesque: you have only to view the Trump extremists to see the dangers of idolatry
It's happening again but to the uygher's in china they are being experimented on beaten to death and raped by the gulag police in chinese labor camp's.
@Rata 4U I think that is present in everywhere but why is that if someone brings China someone try to switch to US ? Like China is a country or American people are so self centred that they always like to bring up American politics? I never gets it man.
@Rata 4U maybe the rest of the world can follow your hero China's lead and just execute everyone. That would solve homelessness, drug addiction, and those bothersomely expensive old people all with one solution. A Final one, we could even say.

About 30 years ago I visited Auchwitz, glass display containers some full of shoes ,some full of spectacles another with small cases. It was horrendous thinking that men, women and children had been murdered and then their bodies burned in the crematorium. No one on God's earth should have been subjected to this appalling terror and misery. I only watched half of the documentary, I'll watch the other half at a later date. I just can't fathom the cruelty and heartlessness of those monsters who were capable of such barbaric atrocities.
What a horrible place to be. For everyone that had to suffer this medieval torture I feel awful for them that evil had to exist, and it is a miracle that some people came out of this camp alive. May those innocent souls that were cruelly lost in the worst atrocity known to mankind Rest in Peace. 😭😭😭😭
I am so grateful they had the foresight to film the Nuremberg and Eichmann trials, thus leaving for prosperity the testimony of the survivors. Let us hope that Humanity learns from these atrocities.
Let's embrace each other with love, its the only thing we can do better. May the souls of these lovely people continue resting in peace. Nairobi Kenya. Best.
What if the RAF had lost the Battle of Britain? Would the Brits have been overrun? Would the Nazis have won the Second World War?
Top historians debate one of the biggest what-ifs in history: th-cam.com/video/OaH2-g04cIA/w-d-xo.html
Nazis would have won if they were able to defeat the Russians during Barbarossa or pursue the atomic bomb in advance. Remember Soviets sacrificed more during the war. If not for them German will be the standard language
On current evidence, plenty of them would have welcomed the Nazis with open arms.
"What if" Rudolp Hess had actually been heard rather than incarcerated, Winston Churchill wouldn't have become as wealthy, millions of lives would have been saved, Poland wouldn't have come under Soviet domination (wasn't Polish freedoms the reason we went to war?), Palestine would have still become Israel which is really what this was all about.
@Rachelle Roberthon Favaloro Sorry, you've lost me??
@Rachelle Roberthon Favaloro Piffle.
The choice to use silence instead of ambient music was so profoundly fitting. The silence of those lives, snuffed out. Silence of the weight of grief and sin against so many. The silence of words not ever being enough. And the silence of that which must never be again.
The absence of music droning on and on in the background, usually too loud, is a blessing.
Americans don’t acknowledge that they committed a Holocaust upon the Native Americans.

My grandfather had a jewelry store in Rome, one day the natzis were marching in and as my grandfather was closing the shop a young Jewish man from the resistance slipped in the store begging for a change of clothes. My grandfather gave him a coat, and he slipped away, smiling at his daughter. Four years later after the end of the war he came back to give him his coat back, and to marry his daughter, my aunt....

I also visited Auschwitz’s and it was the most haunted place I’ve ever been. We had a wonderful guide that was very informative. But I have never forgotten Auschwitz’s. I read history and watch history documentaries as much as I can. They really don’t teach history until you decide to read it yourself. It’s just so sad what happened to these helpless people especially the children. 😢 7:16
I visited Auschwitz in winter, I wore multiple layers and jumper/thick coat, scarf, gloves, woolly hat, 3 pairs of socks, the lot... It was freezing cold and you couldn't escape the wind chill because it was such an open area, it was basically when it hit me for real how horrendous it all must have been for them.
Yeah Ben , they were many times harder than us. It just goes to show you how much you fight for your life. Never forget the evil though.

Brainwashed into thinking they were subhuman and that they were the cause of all of Germany’s problems post WW1
They weren't this cruel to other human beings, to them they were subhuman and their enemy.

I worked in Krakow in 1998 to 2000 and visited Aushwitz 1 & 2 about 40 miles away a number of times. It's a tragic place, there's no birds at all, as if they know whats occurred there and stayed away out of fear or respect. RIP all who died.
By any chance, did you visit during the months of winter?

I've read that there is an eerie silence and saddness around the place a few times
That's really creepy and sad

I've visited the Auschwitz concentration camp when I was around 10 years old with my partents to pay respects to our family members who were murdered there during the war. I will never forget the immediate feeling of terror and anxiety as soon as you walk through the entrance gate. It's like this very dark and heavy energy that latches itself to you and doesn't want to let go. I had nightmares for weeks following that day. That place broke me completely and I refuse to go there ever again. I think once in a lifetime is enough.

The horror of war, real war!! All the war mongers should be forced to listen to these vids. Only psychopath loves war, and who ever initiate a war, must be considered as a criminals.
Another is, when thhe narrator said that even with such horrific condition, there's only a few suicides. Compared to nowadays, almost every day we got suicide, even the wealthiest. I wonder if the living condition today are actually worse than those World War days??..
This needs to be mandatory watching in schools.
I agree, because three years ago I watched a guy asking this question to some university students, "do you know about the holocaust"? Answers by all of them was, "that never happened", others "that a tale", yet others said, "no prove of it ever happening". I was shocked! These students were been this asked while walking on campus. This proves that our children are been thought to ignore the past, some people want to erase history all together.
We are no longer allowed to be taught British history in schools as it upsets people of the bad thing s what the uk did to survive the war.

In Myanmar, the Muslim minority who have lived in the western end of the country for countless generations are being murdered by the government’s agents. Thousands have fled to Bangladesh where they live in squalid refugee camps & they are not welcome. With increasing numbers of people who flee there, the amount of
vicious retaliatory acts of violence are rising.

I used to work with MP in the U.S. Army reserve at my old shop (I'm a car mechanic). He'd leave for a few months a year to serve, and the last time he went (while we still worked together) he spent some time in Germnay and Poland, and went to see Auschwitz. Now this guy was not relgious, nor did he believe in any spiritual matters like metaphysics. But he told us that, despite it being warm out in July, the moment he stepped into some of those buildings he felt a deeply unsettling chill in the air.
This soldier is a large, extremely strong, and fearless young guy, but he said it felt as if all the suffering and death that took place there had sunk into and stained the surroundings, and it deeply unsettled him. He'd served and fought in Afghanistan and Iraq... but Auschwitz disturbed him. Scared him even.
How poisoned with misery, torment, brutality, and mass murder must the place have been to affect him so badly...

To treat fellow human beings so sadistically and to cause such unimaginable anguish and pain is unfathomable but continues to happen from time to time. There are obviously worse things than death and there's also plenty of twisted people who would reenact these atrocities given similar circumstances.

With all due respect, even though genocides still do occur, nothing has been even close to the industrialized murder machine the Nazis manufactured. There were hundreds of concentration camps and torture facilities and the einsatzgruppen. It was a modern day Spanish Inquisition times a million.

*"You are all under a deferred sentence of death"* that sent chills down my spine. Over six million innocent people savagely murdered. Never forget them.
Does it make you feel better to say “Never forget them”? I don’t think that there is any risk that they will be forgotten, so this is an easy platitude to throw out so that you can identify as a compassionate person. But, what are YOU doing to help those TODAY in similar circumstances? What monies have you donated to help such people and what risks have YOU taken? Perhaps you can back up your platitude with actual action, but if not, you are just being lazy typing in an easy, throw away response. Perhaps you can do some research and let the rest of us know what you and the rest of us should be doing so that we are not just saying “never forget” as if that is some type of brave statement. It is just too easy to type “never forget” and then go about your life feeling good about yourself.

I watched this, my emotions swinging from absolute horror and revulsion to overwhelming anger and sadness. I just can't understand how it happened, I will never understand. I thought about stopping watching it several times, I wanted to turn away, but these people couldn't turn away from it, they had to live it. I mourn them, I am horrified that this happened to them. I wish I could have helped.
People capable of compassion and with conscience and morality cannot understand those incapable of compassion and devoid of such characteristics. It's foolish to even try.
Believe it. It still goes on today. We will never know the intense suffering and pain. Its unbearable to hear this and picture in your mind.
I've grown to accept as much as I've grown to learn just how sick and sadistic people really are. I've seen things, things that no child should see when conditioned to believe that he/she is safe and that everyone is harmless. How I wish that were the case. I too was conditioned to believe that no man nor woman could do such horrific things to another person. Unfortunately, it just made the real truth much harder to accept. Do not hesitate to fight back. It is either your life or theirs. Do not cooperate nor shed a single tear. Give yourself your all because death isn't something you should be afraid of. It is simply the fear of not having the chance to live.
Yes...somewhere along the line, we started to be told that everyone is good and that there is no evil, as if the second world was a magic wand. Now where you accuse or suspect others of having nefarious intent... if you are targeted or harmed by someone you, the victim, get labelled an abuser for complaining about your treatment / telling. Somewhere along the line those being harmed became labelled perpetrators for standing up for themselves and for trying to secure justice in the face of abuse...

Over 40 years ago I read a paper back book entitled simply "Auschwitz". It was so riveting, and unbelievable, I was in such disbelief I could not put it down. Details of the inhumane acts performed by Dr. Josef Mengele were incomprehensible. I was about twenty-four years old when I read the book and I don't even remember how I came about having it in my possession. I knew about this unspeakable time in history and the horrendous acts committed by Hitler's regime, but this small paper back book enlightened me to so much more. It is still inconceivable how one man so filled with such hatred against other human beings managed to build an army that also followed his rule. I am not Jewish but I have many Jewish friends. I have always considered "Jewish" as a religion rather than a race. There are no words to express the sadness I feel for all those who had to experience such degrading, inhumane treatment, those who lost their lives, or the anger and disgust toward those responsible for the same. To those who managed to have "survived", thank you for sharing your stories. The world needs to know the truth.

I went to Auschwitz, and it was a particularly strange experience stepping inside one of the surviving gas chambers as a tourist. They ushered three tour groups into the gas chamber at the same time; we had an English guide but other groups spoke in German - the guides spoke quite loudly to be heard. It felt wrong that so many curious people were crammed into that final terrifying place, ogling the clawed scratch marks on the walls. But I suppose going there is the best way to learn.
We had to be silent while in the chamber at Auschwitz, as a mark of respect for all who perished there.
It’s how you step into their shoes.
The doors didn't lock,kinda strange no?
I've been to both Auschwitcz and Dachau, I will say the tours were very different. Dachau received women from Auschwitcz routinely to keep with gender separate norms. Hygiene was deplorable and prisoners were tasked to kill their own. Truly almost the worst of the camps.

Perhaps you nor the average American tell me that number of troops that Iran, Libya, and/or Syria has on other countries borders? NONE.

Adam and Eve chose to go against God's word and eat from the one forbidden tree and, unfortunately, from that moment on everything changed and sin came into the world. Because we now live in a sin stricken world, God gave us the ten commandments which, if we all kept them, would make life here absolutely wonderful for the most part, but so few of us choose to keep them. The Germans had a choice of whether to carry out their evil acts or not. Whenever one looks into evil atrocities going on in the world, there will always be a choice that was made. Thankfully, the allies chose to fight this evil force and liberated so many in these vile death camps. God sees everything. People that chose to do evil will eventually be punished accordingly. Why did this happen to Jews, supposedly God's 'chosen' people? Maybe they were the only ones strong enough to bear what went on. I don't know.

You said it this really is needed I‘m a Gen X’er. When I was in high school, during junior and senior year as we were reviewing European history our history teacher was able to have a Holocaust survivor come in and speak to us which was a gift one year it was a man the following year it was a woman.
They told us their experiences as intimately as was done in this horrific yet poignantly presented documentary.
They patiently answered my classmates questions. We are not Jewish (I was in Catholic school) I think the Franciscans who taught us to have respect for all people know matter their ethnicity or religion. I don’t know about other Catholic schools but we were taught about every major religion and we were taught to have respect for all of us are children of God. I know as a Catholic but there are other sects that do not embody the teachings of Saint Francis of Assisi I consider myself blessed and fortunate to have had such beautiful monks and nuns who not only saw to our intellectual growth but to our spiritual and emotional growth as well.

Morals are an accident of mercy, they do exist.
It's happening again but to the uygher's in china they are being experimented on beaten to death and raped by the gulag police in chinese labor camp's.
@Rata 4U yeah, safe. Cause the "Undedirables ate shunned and ignored, denied existence.
A society is judged on how the vulnerable are treated.
@Rata 4U I think that is present in everywhere but why is that if someone brings China someone try to switch to US ? Like China is a country or American people are so self centred that they always like to bring up American politics? I never gets it man.
@Rata 4U maybe the rest of the world can follow your hero China's lead and just execute everyone. That would solve homelessness, drug addiction, and those bothersomely expensive old people all with one solution.
A Final one, we could even say.
You're recommending totalitarianism as a solution to social ills. That's just Naziism in Asia. Stop idolizing it.

About 30 years ago I visited Auchwitz, glass display containers some full of shoes ,some full of spectacles another with small cases. It was horrendous thinking that men, women and children had been murdered and then their bodies burned in the crematorium. No one on God's earth should have been subjected to this appalling terror and misery. I only watched half of the documentary, I'll watch the other half at a later date. I just can't fathom the cruelty and heartlessness of those monsters who were capable of such barbaric atrocities.
Absolutely horrendous time in history of mankind. All those perpetrators should feel the punishment of God in the truest form.
What a horrible place to be. For everyone that had to suffer this medieval torture I feel awful for them that evil had to exist, and it is a miracle that some people came out of this camp alive. May those innocent souls that were cruelly lost in the worst atrocity known to mankind Rest in Peace. 😭😭😭😭
Thank You for an Important, Well Done, and Informative video. We Must Never Forget.
I am so grateful they had the foresight to film the Nuremberg and Eichmann trials, thus leaving for prosperity the testimony of the survivors. Let us hope that Humanity learns from these atrocities.
Sudan
Rowanda
Armenia
Syria
Bosnia
The Congo
No...we have not learned our lesson
@@melissareece8656 Sad but true. Hopefully we can learn and change.
@@melissareece8656 Rwanda was probably the saddest of all. The international community could do something but didn't. It still makes me mad.
@Evil Frasier garbage
the trial was stopped lmao
Let's embrace each other with love, its the only thing we can do better. May the souls of these lovely people continue resting in peace. Nairobi Kenya. Best.
Love to you my brother or sister. Best !
This report pulls very few punches. Required watching for anyone who seeks to know how low humanity can stoop.
could be as easy as looking out a window very soon
@Jeff Smith A contemptuous comment.
As the Good Book says, " The heart is deceitful and desperately wicked. Who can know it?"
@Steven Hickman don't kid yourself pal ,it's probably going to happen again have a good look at the world today !!
