- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ย. 2024
- At the age of 10, Eva Mozes Kor fought through the horrors of Auschwitz, where she was experimented on as one of "Dr. Mengele's twins." Later, she helped launch a global manhunt for Mengele. After decades of torment and pain, she eventually came to forgive the Nazis and has since emerged as arguably the best-known and most-active Holocaust survivor in the world. This is her unforgettable story.

I feel like commercial ads shouldn't be allowed during videos like this... It's so unnecessary, insulting, and annoying.
Thank you!!!! I was thinking the same. Like people talking about the worst pain in life and then… BETTER HELP!!?!
She forgave for her not for them. She decided to live with love and not have hate in heart for the rest of her life. Hate can swallow u whole and you live a very sad angry life. She survived a horrific childhood she deserves to live a happy rest of her life.
She is what describes ‘I forgive but I haven’t forgot’
I actually live right down the road from the CANDLES museum in Terrehaute and drive by it almost every day. I remember taking a school trip to the museum and listening to Eva speak and tell her story. It was very humbling to hear that amount of detail from a survivor.
I met her in 2007 when she was showing my parents a house in Terre Haute. I was 16 at the time and didn't know much of her background. She was very sweet and I wish I would've asked for more of her stories.
Hi 👋 how're you doing?
Bless her. I’m a twin as well. The media hasn’t changed unfortunately 😔
I have a TREMENDOUS amount of respect for all those who survived the holocaust including my oldest sons late great grandma I admired, respected and loved her. I enjoyed hearing about how she and her family survived and the more time I spent with her the more I admired her courage to live through such an atrocity and millions of innocent jews were subjected to unnecessary cruelty, singled out, brutally, slaughtered, ostracized,.treated like garbage etc etc etc etc. My oldest son was the first born grandson and great grandson on both sides of the family I raised my oldest son to be proud of his dad's Hebrew heritage and respect those who managed to survived through this dark chapter in humanity that should've NEVER happened in the first place
I was honored to meet her at the museum in Indiana and she gave my children a tour. VERY inspirational.
To see Eva being dragged out with so much pain while Elie spoke…. My heart shattered into so many pieces.
Her book was very interesting because it gives you an understanding of what Auschwitz was like from a child's perspective. I can't imagine that horror for an adult, let alone a child, and being experimented on also.
Joseph Mengele-The Creation of a M yth by G ermar R udolf
I met this lady as a child when she was telling and teaching around the USA in the 80s and 90s. I remember her voice and story. It made a huge impression on me. An amazing woman
Hello how are you doing?
A year ago today Eva stepped into her eternal reward. God Bless you, Eva. Your lesson on forgiveness will heal the world. ❤️
Age is just a number... she's became more and more powerful each time she grew older...thank u for your unimaginable love wise woman ❤️
Bless you Eva, for showing us that nothing and no one is unforgivable.
Thank you for showing me how forgiving really brings me peace inside. Thank you for speaking the truth and for being such a strong individual. Thank you for helping to set me free Eva.
I listen to a lot of documentaries about the holocaust and WWII at work because I am very interested in these stories. But man, watching them and seeing all of the pictures and faces of the victims is so much harder.
And the skelatal bodies thrown in ditches. I'm horrified everytime. I can't.
My heart bleeds for these individuals. I'm so happy Eva and her sister survived but I can't imagine the courage she had to come forward and speak out like she did. May she rest in peace with her family ❤️
Thank you Eva for teaching us about the life saving miracle of forgiveness.
Amazing documentary! Thank you Eva and thank you Timeline!
This needs to be seen as many young people haven’t got a clue of these awful atrocities and the sad thing is the world has learnt nothing of this evil it’s still happening in different countries around the world
This brought tears to my heart, it shows how predujust can ruin a race of people, it shows the cruelity of man against man. This lovely, and extremely brave lady must be listened to. Eva is our history, and we must listen!!!!!!
Greetings from Canada
In regard to the DNA match from Mengeles son I myself a life long studier of WW2 have always been very sceptical about the identification of martin bormann.
I agree with you 1000%
@@annj8736 it seemed to me that it was staged to put an end to the speculation. There's nothing on line about the details of the testing.
To be German, go against the army's rule, the fate was horrific. I had family that went against. Their homes, farms burned, animals killed, children and babies slaughtered, family hunted down and given the same punishment. That army turned against its own people as well. In droves. Sickening. And some countries do this trash today. They're hunted down today, in canada, every day.
Who's hunted in canada?
I agreed with you until the last sentence. CANADA?!?!? WTF? WHO is hunted down in Canada?
So sad.
@@czazozharris4083 indigenous genocide is alive and well in Canada. After alarms sounded, they just go after women and girls now, slowly destroying what remains.
Eva you are an incredibly strong woman. From my bottom of my heart i cant imagine so proud of you.
What a extraordinary brave little woman Eva was.
She was ridiculed no matter wht she did she got angry they was horrible to her she forgave they was horrible she couldn't win this woman deserved respect
I didn't know that she went through all of that. A very good documentary. Precious woman.
Survivors should not judge another survivor's healing path
This video should be shown in every High School in America. What an amazing woman. Her work should be remembered and carried on.
Thanks matey merry Christmas and Happy New year to you
Thanks guys stay safe and well I hope you both enjoyed your Christmas I hope you both have a great new year I love you guys bruv
One of the greatest privileges of my life was when I met and spoke to Eva.
I felt and felt and felt. The grace I had to do so, liberated in spirit, is thanks to Eva Kor's message to all and especially to me. Humans are sentient to her teachings, in all of the World, in each and every path, in each step forward.
Hate breeds hate. The things that were done with this innocent people is beyond imaginable and was beyond evil. And I could actually feel and hear her pain but the hate that she had had to be let go of so she could heal. Very touching
Love this Y.T channel. Thanks great VID...........
You were an amazing lady Eva.
Many people have struggles, but Eva chose to forgive but not forget, and give others the tools to empower themselves to get on with their lives for the greater good. I had had some horrible times in my life, but if I let those people have a hold over me they would have won, I will not let them win. I will never forgive nor will I forget, but that doesnt mean I cannot move on. I can and I have. Anyone who endeavors to destroy someone else's life does not deserve forgiveness in my world, but I do understand that for some that is the only way they can move on, and I believe everyone has to do what they need to to live a better life and not to just survive. Yes I admire her as there are many who went through what she did but are going to end their lives bitter to the end. Bitterness can cause one to suffer and those around them to suffer, when they could move on. This is just my opinion and should not be treated badly for it.
She forgives because it's what God wants us to do, We are all born of sin and in The Bible no sin is greater than the other and if we want to be forgiven we must forgive.
She does live Amen.
Forgiveness is something we do for ourselves. It's something that many of us have to do to go on. The hurt, anger, bitterness etc is all justified and completely understandable. But not all of us are capable of compartmentalizing those feelings. Pushing them aside in order to move forward. No one wants to live with those feelings in their heart because it takes over every aspect of your being. I admire Mrs Eva Kor for many things but especially her strength. Her bravery. Her outspokenness. People don't have to agree with her. They don't have to forgive and she never asked them to. She did what she had to do for herself and I don't find it to be selfish at all. Her son said that he thought it was selfish and that made me sad. Which one was worse? The angry mom embarrassing him at school and baseball games or the one who is healed?
I adore Eva
Eva I love you I pray one day I'll get to say it to your face and then give you and your sister a big hug until then please take care of my twins (a boy and a girl)PLEASE TELL THEM I LOVE THEM ❤️
Inspiring! We could all spread a little more kindness in this world.
GOD BLESS BEAUTIFUL EVA 🙏🦋💜
6:14 Such adorable babies. Such strong kids. Such incredible women. Life has a funny way of bringing out the best in us often after the worst of times.
As a survivor of an abuser that seemed bigger than life itself, I truly understand this woman from the devastation, to the anger and forgiveness. I even understand her fight for justice and answers. She was who we should be.
Eva, you helped me heal a bit more. I love you for that. Thank you .
Wow that was powerful. What afantastic woman
A woman with a remarkable heart.
Thank you & God Bless you Eva 💔💔💔💖💖💖
Forgiven someone takes a lot of strength God bless you Eva
I didn't expect to see Ray Allen in the clip, nevertheless what a woman
Love you kiddo. Respect. Xx
The Nazis didn't stand a chance against a badass like Eva Kor.
I lost it when I saw she passed....on Independence Day.
No more hatred is a very strong word.
She came to forgive the nazis? Sounds like she had diminished capacity. She was lucky to have lived long as she did.
She forgived. Lets not judge. Maybe it was in her not to hold onto a horrific past but to look forward to a bright future.
Holding on to hate only hurts the hater.
I think forgiveness is what separates us from the evilness
What a beautiful soul!
Powerful NC, 🇺🇸
Interesting story
The saddest thing? History will repeat itself because humanity is burying the past & forgetting the lessons learned.
Yeah, and it's kinda happening now to the people who choose not to wear a mask or be vaxxed. It always starts small but then it always gets worse.
@@tonyakrebs4137 yes the government is going to exterminate you
@@tonyakrebs4137
How could you give such a comment? This is impious.
I think about this often. And it’s why I advocate to preserve historic sites and houses and to designate memorials… I’m terrified that these sadistic and unforgivable acts will be repeated because people are ignorant of history.
@@schnickschnack2000 it’s also callous and absolutely ridiculous.
The aunt was probably in her own type of depression after losing her husband and son.
Losing your child changes you.
Glad she survived to tell her story so the world would know the horrors that happened at that terrible place.
My thought was her aunt was to broken to feel. It is with great hope she found a way to heal.
I cannot say enough about Mrs Eva Kor. I know her story forward and backwards. She has always been an inspiration to me. She went through the most horrific experiences. She stood up when many didn’t. She started speaking out early. She started Candles museum and brought mass attention again to the escape of Mengele. She ended able to forgive for HERSELF when others were outraged. She was a force in herself. She will forever be missed. May her memory forever be a blessing along with Miriam and their family who perished.
I had the pleasure of meeting Eva Kor at Utah State University in 2013. To hear her story was amazing, but seeing that tiny woman was something else. Her presence filled the room. She was soft spoken (probably because she was not feeling strong that day having traveled a lot) but fiercely captivating. I thank God in Heaven for her 💙
@@LCmonman I too! No I did not meet her but we need fierce love and strong emotion to help us see each other, and not just engage in abstract political games, bless you!
@@annereidy7981 the Holocaust was an appaling atrocity against mankind and and the murder of children is particularly evil. However have things really changed in the modern world . Look up the facts of the number of Palestinian children that have been murdered by the state of Israel . It's absolutely shocking , and disturbing .before people start shouting anti semitism think about it. The murder of children is never justified .
@@Spartan-oj9dc I think you are preaching to the converted! I don't think you have actually taken on board my comment, nor, it appears, understood it. Many holocaust have happened in the world, and that since the second w war too. You are right, violence is never justified, especially when it is used to control and discriminate and dispose of those we fear or merely do not understand. Which is why I applaud this Lady.
@@annereidy7981 you are wrong the comment is legitimate .this is a factual story about how a mother in an incredibly dangerous situation will do anything to protect her child even risking her own life. And that humanity has not improved to stop merciless killing . If the example of Israel is offensive then what about Saudi Arabia and the forced starvation to death of at least 200,000 children in Yemen over the last year .it was mentioned once on CNN snd then no more coverage as the west needs it's oil and doesn't want to offer the Saudi government. The fact of the matter is all human beings are capable of evil with governments committing this evil and and other countries not being prepared to do anything about it.
Eva passed away on July 4th, 2019 in Krakow. RIP and thank you for sharing your story. You were amazing and I adore you.
Transformation is our choice. Eva made that choice. She evicted the hatred and anger from her heart, and by doing so, made room for joy and happiness to reside there. She is a model human being. Shalom Eva.
🙏✨❤️ An amazing Woman with a big heart. May she's rest in eternal peace 🕊️
I am from Terre Haute, Indiana. Eva visited my school and spoke several times upon her experiences. My class visited the CANDLES Holocaust museum various times. She was an incredible woman who taught us the power of justice, peace and forgiveness. She is truly an amazing inspiration of her resilience and her strength.
How does HER story compare to kitty Hart story.
@@maxsmith695 Kitty Hart wasn't a twin so Mrs. Eva had an extra level of horror and terror.
I met this woman in person. She was a very beautiful soul.
I think it'd be reasonable for you to share the rest of the story. Your brief message could lead up to believe she's an ex-con
Did you ask her how she became such a good actress?
@@wilhelm4321 you good bro?
What a wonderful memory that most be!
How fortunate and honored you must have been to meet her!
There are no words to describe Eva,but a few are brave and passionate. Unfortunately after her son called his mother's public forgiveness to her perpetrators "selfish", I had to shut the video off. Forgiveness is SUCH a personal thing, even if done publicly. She did it for herself and no one else. Who is to judge what is in Eva's heart? Forgiveness is not letting someone "off the hook", it's a healing gift that you give yourself. Dr. Paul Jenkins said that. Eva, wherever you are, blessings to you. Your strength and character are a true example of humanity. Thank you for sharing your journey with the world.
There are no words to describe her not a few are brave & compassionate? While I agree those words describe her well, that first sentence makes no sense whatsoever
You gave your blessings but sadly She died in 2019. I thought I'd let you know
What an incredibly strong lady, she is truly amazing and brave. Why nobody would hear her voice is just another reason we as humans should be ashamed she was telling her story and the truth everyone chose to ignore. So sad 😞
She was an amazing woman . To forgive these monsters was truly jaw dropping . Eva was a rock star .
How dare they question a victim’s decision to forgive? Did they go through what she did? Even if other victims decided not to forgive, no one has the right to judge her or them. It’s so annoying who are you if you haven’t walked in her shoes
I agree. Hatred is a strong emotion very much akin to love. Those monsters did not deserve a thought if that is what any Holocaust victim decided. Forgiveness can free you, if you are able to do it.
Boom. Hugs. Xx
Rest in Peace Eva......it was a lot of fight....but you did it- and never gave up......
How did she pass away?😟
Eva Kor spoke at my central Indiana middle school about both her experiences during the holocaust and how it affected her afterwards. It was so devastating hearing her talk about everything that happened to her. But her spirit was amazingly unbreakable. She was small of stature but her spirit filled the room.
Wow, an amazing life story. I have no words to thank her for her witness and testimony. A great woman who triumphed over evil with survival, her voice, her anger and finally her forgiveness and peace.
I've had the honor of being able to meet several survivors from various camps (no Mengele twins)... the horrors they went through and the way they now speak about them and about hope and forgiveness is truly humbling... in my country a lot of those stories have been written down and I've made it my personal mission to read and own every single book... I've been collecting for over 15 years now, and still don't know half of what has been written about it... I did not know about Eva's story until stumbling across this documentary, but I have already told my family that I want her books to read next time they give me a book...
What are the titles of these books?
@@CourtWallace the ones by Eva you can see in the documentary... the ones in my language are only for sale here and there are no English translations to them so I doubt whether you can read them...
Not sure if you’ll ever be in Indiana in the US, but she has a wonderful museum called CANDLES. They have a hologram of her there to immortalize her and her story.
So sad. No one (leaders) have learned an inch of humanity from this. History is repeating itself every minute of every day, here, globally, in year 2021. It's just being done in different, covert ways. Nothing has actually improved. Some are not covert, but are denied. Part of the human condition? The strongest survive? Is there hope? No.
She's a wonderful lady I'm reading her book the things they experienced is sickening , I'm glad she survived to tell her story god bless her
Hey what is her book called I review books on my TH-cam channel I will check it out soon. Please give me the title. thank you

I’ll never forget Eva, I always feel a certain way when I watch videos about her. I struggle a lot with my emotions and past traumas, and she’s gives me a glimmer of hope. I wish I could’ve told her thank you when she was alive.
In Germany, children were emotionally neglected for decades..the cold doctrines stayed and intoxicated. No hugs. Moms unable to show affection.
@the best 11 no no she means before thw war and in general. Germans always had that coldness to them. Everything was about discipline. Society was militarized and even family relations worked like armies in the little. That is why the Germans lacked empathy for the Jews in the beginning.
I am so glad to have seen this video. Powerful story well told. Bless Eva Kor‘s beautiful Heart.
Interestingly enough Eva lived and raised a family in Indiana and would take a yearly educational trip to Auschwitz. It was on her last one of these trips in which she died. I flew out of Indiana to Krakow on a trip that I had planned about a year in advance, arriving just about a week after her death. Quite the timing.

Seth what did the journey change in you? I was there in 2002. As German. Will you forgive my ancestors?
Read Te'll the Tru th and Sha me the D3vil by Ger'ard Men'uhin.
Omg this is the lady that a writer my husband knows talked about on Facebook when she died. I didnt know
An amazing human being. Who won the war on this earth? Eva Mozes Kor….that’s who! God will bless you, ma’am! ❤️🇮🇱😔🇺🇸
Sad
When I was in Germany in '74 I had the I don't know the word but I did go to Dachau concentration camp I missed the Olympics and there was another sad thing that year but the concentration camp was unbelievably moving.
If I could hug Eva I would. She was a better person than me. I am not Jewish and I wasnt born until the fifties but forgiveness to the Nazi's is not on my agenda.
I'm a bit lost for words but it really makes one think on Christmas Eve. Merri Christmas to all regardless of religion or religious believe and peace be with you.
Another person who falls for allied propaganda 🙄 😒
@@wilhelm4321
OH little Willey, your mob showed their true colours before you were probably born.
You just proved that Germany should never be trusted.
@@306champion I read my great uncles and great grandfather's letters that they sent home. Their are always two sides to every story and you have one gotten the western version of events.
Imagine how brave she is to just to go back there let alone speak on or about it...omg I love this woman.
Like my grandmother said....bad times don't last forever....never give up..🇮🇱🙏
I've seen her lectures and this is a side I didn't know. There are still a few survivors & them telling their stories, giving us firsthand accounts of what happened serve as a reminder that these atrocities happened less than 100 years ago. That it's not impossible for history to repeat itself and that it's up to us to do better & be better for one another.
God willing this will never happen again. Between what the Nazi’s and the Japanese did during WW2 was truly horrific. I wish people would stop comparing wearing a mask during the pandemic to the Holocaust. It’s insulting and nowhere close to the same thing. I don’t know how many of my distant relatives perished in the Holocaust in Russia and Greece. Eva died within the past few years and I hope she is resting in eternal peace now!
And what the soviets did.
And what the Americans did to Japanese-Americans.
@@lindseyitamoto And the treatment of POW’s by the British
I saw her story on the Holocaust channel. So unbelievably atrocious what happened not only to her and her dear twin but to them all. Innocent people one and all. Mans inhumanity to man is indescribable and the return to savagery is not that far below the surface. As is attested by how many of what you would normally call sane, cultured, orderly people who descended into barbarity. G- D all those who tried to help. 🙏🙏🙏👵👵👵🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Kids today have no idea how lucky they are. I have no idea how to comprehend the pain and trauma thus must if had on that generation.
I never ever get fed up of watching documentaries about this lady and her beautiful sister ❤️ how utterly inspiring! Xx

Most Excellent Mrs. Eva!
Thank you for your courage & care. You leave a legacy of fortitude & hope for a better world. Your Mamma would be proud of you. Let us Never forget the Holocaust & the triumphant victories of God’s Chosen people of Promise:
The Jewish Peoples around the world & the fig tree ISRAEL!
God’s Blessings to All who’ve Endured. 🇺🇸❤️🇮🇱 forever!
You can see the pain in her eyes!
Thank you, Eva. You truly exemplified Teddy Roosevelt's 'Man in the Arena' speech:
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
God bless you, Eva. May your good work outlive you for decades and centuries to come.
When I was in middle school we took a trip to hear her speak, at the time I don’t think I really processed what she was speaking on but I do remember she carried this warmth with her and was very kind.
To forget the past is to allow the past to happen again. My grandfather was a ww2 Soldier in Italy and my grandmother a nurse. Word traveled slow back then. Once Italy knew of the camps they hung Mussolini and turned on the Germans. This meant some Italians including my grandfather were taken prisoner by the Germans near the end of the war. They both survived and came here to Canada in 1950. They didn't talk about it EVER! probably too much trauma.
Eva Full fills the Proverbs 31 Woman!
She's short in stature; But mighty in Word's of Love, Compassion an Forgiveness; not as Who she is? But Who she Became!
Shalom Eva Rest On Jehovah's Arms!✡️😇💕
I admire Mrs Mozes Kor. Forgiveness frees you from pain inside
Some of them Nazis were forced into being there,or their families got out in or killed.not making excuses,but both my grandfather's fought,my dad's father I got to know his past well .he was a liberator of matthausen camp .he said he met alot of German soldiers, didn't want to be there,they didn't support what it became,at first it was focus on g were rmany,but then the war began, killing people,etc.
Hate is such a heavy thing to hold onto. What strength she has to forgive such unforgivable and hateful people. 💔
What a marvellous woman, I watched her story on the Holocaust channel. We whinge and whine today and these people whose whole existence was threatened and their loved ones murdered , just bravely got on with life and built new lives from absolutely nothing! What pain they must have carried with think for the rest of their lives. And, through no fault of their own, their own children suffered as well. Rest In Peace Eva, you’re with your beloved parents and sister again. 🙏🙏🙏🙏👵👵👵👵🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
My holocaust was an abusive husband. No-where near what Eva went through, and I would never even try to pretend that it was. But it did make me into a woman who didn't know how to be a mother, and who was so wrapped up in the trauma that empathy became a distant memory. One of my children has forgiven me. The other hasn't, and that's okay. I am struggling to forgive myself.
You are worthy of forgiveness. I hope you are able to see that.
Honestly if these sick people are being forgiven you’ve done nothing in comparison I’m getting….
I'm sorry for what you've been through, but your comment is not appropriate in this context.
@@shaindyhorowitz3783 Yeah…kinda caught me off guard too.
Wow what a gross comment!
Eva has earned the right to be selfish in this!! Eva is an amazing survivor!!! Eva can do whatever she wants and handle her own feelings anyway she wants whether it be anger grief or forgiveness and whoever judges her needs to handle their own feelings!!
I followed her on Twitter and was lucky to interact with her on that platform. She was a beautiful soul, I miss her posts greatly.
Forgiveness is Freedom, Peace.Healing and Joy..This woman is AMAZING ♥️⭐️♥️⭐️♥️
We cannot afford to lose history. Forgive does not mean forget. Forgive means accept the past,accept the transgression, and move forward.
We must never forget or we are doomed to a repeat of history either now and/or in the future!
