• The Only Secret Record... (skip to 3:49 to start where the recording begins)
In this unique video, we delve into the enigmatic world of Adolf Hitler's speaking voice, uncovering a side of him rarely heard before. Our journey begins with the only known recording of Hitler's regular speaking voice - the "Hitler and Mannerheim recording," which reveals a surprising depth akin to James Earl Jones or Darth Vader. This astonishing recording, captured on June 4, 1942, during a covert visit to Finland, offers an unprecedented glimpse into the private conversation between Hitler and Mannerheim.
Furthermore, we test the capabilities of Speechify Studio's "Voice Cloning" feature using excerpts from this historic recording. The AI's ability to replicate Hitler's voice in English, despite the low-quality, German-language original, is both impressive and chilling. We compare voices developed from different-length excerpts, noting the differences in clarity and quality.
Additionally, we present several of Hitler's quotes using these cloned voices, providing a stark contrast to the computer-generated German accent used in previous videos. The impact of hearing these infamous words in what closely mimics Hitler's actual voice is profound and unsettling.
As a fascinating finale, we reimagine the "Darth Vader vs. Adolf Hitler" rap battle from Epic Rap Battles of History using the cloned voice of Hitler. This contrast highlights the stark difference between the portrayal of Hitler in pop culture and the more accurate representation of his voice.
Join us in this thought-provoking exploration of history, technology, and the power of voice. Discover how the voice of one of history's most infamous figures can still resonate and impact us today.

In order to skip to the part where an AI-cloned version of Hitler's actual voice speaks in English, go to 3:45. However, I strongly urge you to watch the entire video for context.
Is this AI clone actually a distorted recording? The original recording could be corrected , made more true.
Hitlers aid said that the mannerheim recording did not sound like Hitler to him.
Doesnt sound like a.h at all
this is actually fitting because he was looked down on by prussians due to his provincial austrian accent @user-tx3ht2te1t
@user-tx3ht2te1t Hitler actually did speak English, and probably did sound like an uneducated working class man down at the pub.
An Austrian accent with a deep voice. He’d sound a lot like Arnold Schwarzenegger.
NO!!!! The Austrian accent was quite nasal. Hitler''s voice was Bavarian; his native Upper Austrian area had belonged to BAVARIA.
“Screw your freedom.”
-A.S.
That's just what I was thinking whilst listening.
@@johndenugent4185 yea there's 3 main dialects of bavarian
It has been commented that Schwarzenegger has what would be described as a farmer’s accent.
Downloading Mein Kamph with this as an audio book would probably land you on a list.
Yeah, a list of morons
I might well do that. IT might however it might give people an idea what hold he seemed to have over the German people .I have read it in English translation ,it in no way conveys the message that seems to have resonated with so many Germans. However keep in mind that the Bolshevik menace that he identified with the Jewish menace dominated much of European ( and American thinking) in the 20 years between the wars.
@@chadwhitman1811 You're right, something is lost in translation.
What? Why 💀

"Christopher Hitchens reads Mein Kampf"
Haha uncanny
That truly blew my mind.
What's the significance of the fact, by itself, that any person has read a book written by Hitler?
@@Pulseczar1
TLDR: Whooosh
Long version: It's not about whether Hitchens read "Mein Kampf" or any other Book written by Hitler. It's just that Hitler's speaking voice is uncannily similar to that of Christopher Hitchens'. Hence the title of the video might as well be "Christopher Hitchens reads Mein Kampf". Humorously speaking.
@@Kosake82 How about Tim Curry? I feel like he sounds similar to The Hitch.
Hitler often began his speeches in a calm, low-key, deliberate, deep voice.
He also spoke with absolute sincerity and love for his volk.
@@EgoShredder His methods sure left a lot to be desired though.
Yeah, but his pronunciation in this audio shows that this was a conversation, not a speech to a crowd.
@@EgoShredder the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

@@winstonpeanutbutter The quote just after 7 min is a notorious forgery. I for one stopped listening at that point.
Someone needs to market a GPS that shouts directions in Hitler’s voice: LEFT TURNEN DUMMKOPF!

Hahaha, Scheissenhausen 🤣
😂
“Wrong turn. Recalculating the route towards the glorious German empire on this marvellous autobahn that was built by me. Sorry, programmer’s joke. Don’t mention the war!”
I doubt anyone would have thought his voice would be whiney? Based on his voice when giving speeches, his speaking voice would of course have been deep as well.
I agree
@@seanohare5488 "would"? Try actually listening to an actual speech!
his voice is commonly portrayed as whiny probably stemming from WW2 era british/american propaganda media like the looney tunes episode where donald duck works in a german wartime factory
Deep voiced lunatic instead of whiny one. What revelation?
Popular culture and facts are not the same, and people often confuse the two. It also matters what sort of media it is. If it's a parody making fun of him they go for the whiny voice as it is more comedic, but if you watch more serious media that protrays him you find that he is often portrayed with a deep voice.
Why are people shocked Hitler had a good voice? When he went to school they tought public speaking and the press at the time noted he had a powerful voice, it wasn't until the war started that comedians started mocking his voice.
Exactly. The problem is that anti-German war propaganda made him into some kind of a lunatic. How many more years have to pass till we can look at the history of the 20th century objectively?
he was a member of toastmeister?
Comedians were hired by propaganda ministry. 😂
The entire beginning of Hitler’s November 1942 Beer Hall speech is Hitler talking in his normal voice. It’s absurd that the Mannerheim recording is considered the only one.
Its rather odd.. The internet is full of idiots
They said the only recording of non-formal speaking. Casual conversation. Many of his speeches survive. There is a difference.
and it is much more than 24 seconds, it is about 15 minutes recording.
where can you find the recording?
@@vilkor2680 in hell, I bet.
My dad's stepdad worked for an American bank in Paris in the 20s and 30s. Dad always said Hitler was a creation of the radio. He was the first politician to really "get" this new tech. Of course FDR was also a great radio performer. He used his talent for good; Hitler for evil. Another great story was about a Mrs Hammersly who was a family friend of the Mitford sisters. Her brother, a career diplomat, had been British consul in Chicago in the Roaring Twenties. When she was told how Hitler was quite charming in person she noted "That's exactly how my brother described Al Capone.
Wasn't it Unity Mitford who swooned for Hitler? Her sister, Jessica, was a communist for a while and later best known in the US for her journalistic expose of the funeral industry. Another sister, Diana, married the leader of the British fascists, Mosley.
That about the radio is on-target. My parents grew up in the Depression and said that everyone was impressed by Hitler's ultra-modern approach. He used radio and movies effectively and accepted Leni Riefenstahl's brilliant techniques in Triumph of the Will and Olympia. He also flew around Germany in a light airplane, a big novelty at the time. The Nazis' techniques generally put to shame all the other parties at the time and made them look old-fashioned and stodgy, even the Communists.
That was beautifully written.
@@user-ei5bm9nb2q Why thank you

And yet you couldn't put your own voice on here
yep, my thoughts exactly
Ironic
@@jamieblanche3963…..thought that too. An AI giving us AI voice of an AI Hitler. I just can’t do a video that doesn’t have enough respect for the listener/viewer to spend time actually narrating it themselves. Lazy way to make money.
@WyattRyeSway Unless, of course, he or she has a speech issue or is mute.
@@stricknine6130 ……mutism or selective mutism on its own is rare. I actually have ASD with SM. I also recognize the owner of the channel may be deaf or as you said, have a speech impediment. However, if that were the case, saying so in the channel description would go a long way. There would also be the issue of using a friend who can speak, as the channel presenter.
What I have noticed is that it seems to be easier and less time consuming to program a computer to narrate something that’s been written. Many people don’t care, it’s true but many of us do.
If you find his voice in the Mannerheim recording so unrecognisable, it seems that most English speakers are more familiar with caricatures of Hitler's voice than with his actual voice. His voice had a high pitch only when he screamed. Listen, e.g., to his famous Sportpalast speech of Jan 31st, 1940. There are passages where he speaks calmly. It is exactly the same voice as in the Mannerheim recording.
James Earl Jones WAS the voice of Darth Vader.
Hitler’s voice is nothing like James Earl Jones’ and is not sexy.
@elligilberg1564 as a bass I laughed when the content creator said his voice is like James Earl Jones not EVEN close
Hitler would often begin his speeches in low tones. But what we remember is what the news reels presented to us, which was the ranting voice. Obviously the people he met in converstion.would be charmed by the voice. Speer also mentioned something else, that he had a sense of humor, often self-deprecating. He had an actor’s self awareness Like Castro, another demagogue of great talent, he would change his persona depending on his audience.
Why so?
Exactly, he'd start the slow burn and work it up to a fever pitch to draw in his audiences.
@@SoiledWig Why was he a self-deprecating humourist?
@@TheFunnyDictatorIt takes people off their guard. They are meeting the chancellor of Germany and undisputed leader of the NSDAP. Nerves were a part of every interaction for newcomers and even old pals.
I have listened to a lot of the recordings and videos of his speeches, being a historian of sorts I think that rough, harsh sound of his voice like he’s gargling glass is a corruption of the original recordings being used. I’ve also heard those same speeches with him sounding less stark raving mad… eh… if you ignore the vitriol in the words being spoken.
Hitler spoke propper Standard German, but with austro/ bavarian accent.
more austro than bavarian
@@wonderfalg Something in between, he hated Austria!
@@carstenmanz302 He is still was an austrian born in Braunau!
From what I understand, German speeches at the time were given in such a fashion that near the end, the speaker would, after speaking normally for the majority of the speech, start to go into a crescendo, with a louder and louder voice and more exaggerated movements and gestures, and it was the footage of Hitler in those moments of his speeches that is what was shown to American audiences. Then you add that the German language itself sounds very militant and aggressive to native speakers of English, and it thus made Hitler look like a raving lunatic. Had people seen Hitler speaking normally, and especially if they'd heard him in English, a lot of Americans at the time might well have agreed with him, as there was a lot of racism and anti-Semitism in the United States at the time. The views of the peoples of the East as subhuman was also held among elements of the American population, including I believe General Patton.
The reality is while very evil, Hitler was not a raving lunatic and he also was actually quite intelligent from the standpoint of being a military commander as well. It is important to understand the type of person he really was, because too many people think they see "a Hitler" in this or that politician because they don't know what they're looking at, while those politicians that are very charismatic, likable, etc...can actually be much more Hitler-like than such people realize.
My dad grew up in Berlin. His "high school" was shooting down bombers and he literally shot his way out of Berlin in 1945 when he was 17. HIs mom was Polish and his dad died in the war. You could very much say he was boots on the ground for the Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. In fact....he was once like 10ft or something from AH since the parade went right in front of his apartment building. I grew up in California but we did spend a year in West Berlin and he pointed out the apartment which had been rebuilt...and I was like "YUP....that is the center of the storm." Back in the 80s we were watching the "Wind of War" or something like that when some actor playing AH walked into a room and just started screaming, in English, at the crowd. The topic of WW2 could really bring my dad down so I kinda tip toed around it, but the unintentional effect of this was pure comedy. My dad literally burst out loud laughing. "No warm up, no crescendo...for Goodness Sake, Hitler is already over the top, but the actor does not need overdeliver!". Now with regards to "Downfall" my dad finally did watch it and somewhat sadly and sarcastically said that "it was every bit as uplifting as I remember it".
While they wanted a restoration of German power and importance, Hitler's generals were not happy about launching a new world war. Most of them thought invading Russia was an extremely risky gamble, at best. But such was Hitler's charismatic hold on Germany during his ascent in power (1935 - 1941, essentially) that no one felt they could stop him and didn't seriously try until 1944.
@@bostonseeker Well actually, that is a misconception. It was in fact Hitler who saw invading Russia at that point as a risky gamble and his generals who thought it would be easy. The idea that Hitler was the one who thought it would be easy and the generals the ones who advised caution is a story/myth the generals told after the war in order to save their image. Hitler had wanted to take down Britain first before invading Russia, but he felt he had no choice because the fight against Britain had failed and so Britain was able to maintain an oil embargo on Germany.
As such, the solution was to invade Russia and get the oil there. Hitler was very concerned though about the numbers of tanks the Russians had. He also would spend hours pouring over maps analyzing the terrain. His generals undermined him in this, thinking he was being far too cautious and kept information from him that might have made him even call off the invasion.
Ya THINK? 🙄
@@kiajulian4619 ?
Well, that explains a lot. He had a serious sounding, authoritative voice, the kind of voice that might elicit subconscious impressions of wisdom and sincerity. It’s a "man among men" kind of voice that exudes masculinity. He would sound as if he knew what he was talking about regardless of what he was saying.
Can you think outside the box and ask if maybe he DID know what he was talking about? Look at America today.
I know this is complete BS, because I am aware of the utter devastation he brought to Germany, Europe, and the wider world.
He was the greatest disaster to befLl the modern world, and the idea that he had any wisdom to impart is not only laughable but insane.
Not surprising, therefore, that you take exactly tly the wrong lesson from the state of America today. Sure, the country is in trouble, but that is largely because of a would-be dictator who lies about everything, using Hitler's Big Lie methodology.
Only a MAGA moron would lack enough brains to advance the proposition that Hitler was misunderstood and his reputation should be rehabilitated.
You are that moron. Get back in your box.
@@johndenugent4185 He devastated an entire continent and killed millions of people, many of them got tortured to death. But there are still poeple like you who think highly of this peice of crap. Things like this make me feel dirty becasue of being human and hope that AI will take over.
Causing a war which caused 50 million deaths plus the associated injuries, destruction and homelessness.... knew what he was talking about? The USA is better off without a Hitler. @@johndenugent4185 Causin
He did know what he was talking about. I'll give you a much, much older example of what he was saying about repeating slogans over and over and over. For some twenty centuries, Christians have said, "Christ is risen", and other Christians have answered, "He is risen indeed". I take no issue with that; I'm Christian myself and firmly believe it). Any worldview is based on beliefs, which are based on very subjective reasons and choices, and regardless of the merits of a worldview, the most effective way to communicate it, make it stick, and move people to action is not a closely-reasoned argument, but a slogan; whether it's "Jesus is Lord", "Allahu Akbar", "H*** H*****", "Just do it", or "Open happiness."
When you listen to this as a German speaker it's easy to hear that Hitler was born and raised in Austria. Austrian German sounds very different to German German (except for the Bavarians) and when both speak English it's also easy to find out where somebody originates from, as the German German accent is very different to the Austrian German accent.
Only a limited grasp of the German language, but didn’t Hitler have a Bavarian accent? I know he was born in Austria, but he evidently picked up the Bavarian accent since he spent several years of his childhood in Passau
@@Ditka-89maybe not necessarily the accent but the cadence
@@Ditka-89 All Austrian dialects, with the exception of Vorarlberg, are Bavarian. Hitler himself comes from the Passau/Braunau border region, so based on the pronunciation he could have been Bavarian.
Ve know that in America. We have a long-running cinema, television, political and athletic franchise called _Our Favorite Austrian._
@@Ditka-89 The Austrian accent was quite nasal. Hitler''s voice was absolutely Bavarian; his native Upper Austrian area had belonged to BAVARIA.
Lenin famously spoke English in an Irish accent (because when he lived in England, he lived with Irish people), but Lenin speaking his native Russian, AI'd into English would sound like something no one would have heard, so this is pointless.
It can give us an idea of how he had sounded
english is a germanic language so its be more accurate, russian is a bad example but i get what youre saying
What is really pointless is your astute observation. There's nothing like drifting off point to make a pointless "point".
In one sense, I agree. But as an academic exercise it's interesting.
@@RobMacKendrick for sure
It’s funny because hitler in English has a British accent
Well, according to Hitlers ideology, brits was a pure race as nordic. So it is absolutley ok

@@wesleyzane But who's that?
@@TheFunnyDictator google that shit
I'm amused by a computer voice discussing a human voice bring translated into a computer voice.
I have to say: His actual voice is arresting and, esp. in English, very articulate. He almost sounds reasonable...almost. Truly a genocidal psychopath. Scary. He seemed to HATE Switzerland, because they were non-interventionist and had ALL OF THE WORLD'S MONEY...inc. Germany's. He also, obviously, had a big problem with America and the English language. It's ironic: Hearing and seeing Hitler's words, I see direct correlations to George Lucas' depiction of The Galactic Empire and the words of both The Emperor and Lord Darth Vader. Thank you.
Huh. It’s former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. Well, I’ll be dammed.
Yes, its interesting given that Kissinger was a Jewish refugee. But yes, there does appear to be a certain similarity.
Kissinger and his ancestors were from Fürth and not far from there, in Bavaria. So the accent should not be a surprise.
Good grief, he sounds like Richard Burton.
@herschelmayo2727 He does not sound Welsh! As acclaimed an actor as Burton was, he could never lose his accent and always sounds Welsh to me in every part he played.
I'd say this voice is a mix of Christopher Hitchens and Ricky Gervais.
And yet to me, as a Welsh person, Richard Burton always sounds very much like he was still trying to hide his accent. Anthony Hopkins still sounds pretty much Welsh a lot of the time. However, Tom Jones has NEVER tried to lose his accent.
@@SuperBC10 I don't think he was trying to 'hide' his accent. Certainly not when he wasn't acting. You need to listen to the softer vowel sounds. I speak with an English accent from living in England, but English friends say I have a different, softer tone.
I meant to add SuperBC, that if you have only lived in Wales (I don't know obviously) that maybe you are used to the more pronounced Welsh accents? Just a thought.
PS I love the way we Welsh are so much softer with our vowels.
I thought the same
@@SuperBC10 But then Tom Jones was never playing the part of an Englishman or an American etc in a film.
I wonder if the recorder was running at an accurate speed. A slight departure might account for the unexpectedly great difference between his speaking voice and his oratory one.
Yes,the recording sounds to me like the many times I've played back something too slow compared to the recording speed, along with booming resonances typical of the microphone being badly placed.
Exactly.
What about without an English accent…..I want to here him with a Texas twang.
Ebonics
He only sounds like he has a high pitched voice during his speech cuz he’s screaming in that speech and when you scream like that your voice will go higher pitched so I never expected him to have a high pitched voice but I didn’t expect it to be this deep though
And people still denied it all happened. Pure evil. 👿
Woman fauning over hitlers simulated voice really makes Eva Braun's obsession over him so much sense now.
I’m not too surprised. Hitler’s speeches are done in his stage voice. Think of Barry Gibb of The Bee Gees. He doesn’t speak in that falsetto singing voice. The songs are done in his stage voice.
James Earl Jones WAS Darth Vader. Well, at least he was Darth Vader’s voice.
He would sound like Gavin Newsom!!!!
Microsoft Sam + Stephen Hawking vibes
Can we have the Downfall Hitler Movie dubbed in English and use AI?
Would pay to see that
That would be awesome, I hate subtitles because I read slow.
That would ruin the authenticity of one of the great movies of all time. It’s the guttural Germanic language that makes the Nazis even more sinister … 💀
@@ma3stro681those who want authenticity can watch the original, while those who would like to watch the movie and the visuals instead of reading the bottom of the screen can enjoy the movie. Subtitles make movies less accessible for some people. Having an English dub option is beneficial.
There are already clips of the movie dubbed in English with AI up on TH-cam right now. it's pretty wild.
5:29 Hitler farts in English.
Such resonance in tone. And yet he only had one ball.
And no driving licence.
(That's only funny if you know the German word for "driving licence". 🤭)
False, larry. Idiot.
Yes, well it appears there was certainly something missing. More likely to be a few brain cells.
That's not true.
He wrote a book, so he was also a writer.
Film had 24 frames per second, TV in Europe had 25 frames per second. To synchronize this, the film was made to run faster, giving the voice a higher pitch. That is the voice we got used to
Wait, tell me more?!

@@daannegenhonderdvierenzeve5728 So what was his normal speaking voice like?

@@TheFunnyDictator your handle is wild
It was not at all 'much deeper', his voice was completely in accordance with his face and normal posture.
Perhaps. But you rarely hear his typical speaking voice. AFAIK, the secret recording is the only known one in the world. And the voice he used on podiums was not according to his or anyone's appearance because it was theatrical and rehearsed. And his normal speaking voice definitely sounded deeper than the yelling kind.
Back then, they said fascism would come to America under the guise of liberalism.
Yet it’s the conservatives that are reusing all the same rhetoric and policy ideas . Go figure .
That didn't happen . It came in the form of a malignant narcissist fascist in Trump.
AND conservativism.
No one said this "back then" in the 18th or 19th century. This is a quote from Ronald Reagan. Considering fascism is on the far right off the political spectrum, this quote is nothing more then right wing propaganda.
Who is "they"?
There are countless groups with various intentions who can be referred to as "they."
FYI, Hitler injested and breathed mustard gas as a courier in WWI affecting his vocal chords likely deepening it.
His spoken German is amazing. So incredibly clear and precise.
Bruno Ganz really nailed calm Hitler in Downfall.
It's easy to see how he swayed people to his thinking. Most actors' portrayals of Hitler in films have him ranting like a lunatic and leave me wondering how anyone would take him seriously.
Hitler would engage in calculated tantrums and come out as the "teppenfresser" (carpet eater). Part of his extreme psychopathic narcissism.
It all sounds like a robot. Adolf Hitler was a man, not robot. By the way I am not a fan of Hitler.
Also, he sounds a little like John Hillerman, who is best known for playing Higgins in "Magnum P.I."
Oh my God Goebels, you have been beaten up again.
I always thought he was English until he said VITE-ah-mins and not vit-a-mins in one episode. Then I knew. 😁😁
@@ac1646 He was from Texas, and Higgins' half-brother Elmo spoke a somewhat-exaggerated version of Hillerman's real-life accent.
John Hitlerman LOL!!!!!!
The Pitch sounds a little slower, than normal. I am a Audio engineer. 30 years experience, and I know a lot about Analog Tape.
He sounds like fellow Austrian Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Just thinking the same! Just like the terminator was saying "he, who lives, must fight". Hitlerator?
Thats what I was going to say
A favourite fact of mine is that Austrian is a bit of a ‘country bumpkin’ accent when it comes to the German language. Hitler would work himself up and shout because he would otherwise sound slow and dimwitted. Arnie once offered to do the German dub for a movie he was in- the production team politely declined for the ‘country bumpkin’ reason.
agreed @@andrewphipps8103
Spot on. I was going to post the same. Did they come from the same region of Austria?
I remember hearing an interview where Orson Wells described a dinner where he met Adolf Hitler. He said the only thing remarkable about him was how painfully dull and boring he was. Hearing this, I think I understand his sentiment. He sounds like slowly cooling oatmeal, and that's not the fault of the A.I either.
He sounds like Christopher Hitchens
I’m pretty sure it’s Hitchens’ voice they’ve used
without the smugness
5:57 - Did Hitler ever say something like that about Switzerland? I am German and I have never heard of this alleged quote from Hitler. Or is it just fake?
Churchill described him as "garrulous," with "a certifiable streak of insanity."
Churchill would know all about "insanity"
Churchill was bought with jewish money
Sorry mate, but Hitler speaking in English sounded like a British Prime Minister from the 40s. You didn’t even put a German accent on it. Doesn’t make any sense.
I thought it was reminiscent of David Bamber's hitler, from Valkyrie.
The exercise is to hear what Hitler would sound like as a native English speaker. A native speaker does not have an accent by definition. Since Hitler was European, a British accent is the most appropriate. This allows English speakers to have a visceral grasp of his evil without mitigation by a language barrier.
You've missed the plot
Not much that machine learning does makes much sense.....
@@Pyrolonn "a native speaker does not have an accent by definition" + "a British accent" = British speakers of English are not native English speakers. It's simply not true that native speakers do not have an accent - everyone has an accent when they speak any language, the question is simply which one.
He totally sounds like Arnold, but only when he talks in German.
He sounds very deep but also very calm
Chatty but deep and calm
Maybe he actually sounded like PeeWee Herman, but was just sick that day.
Sounds like he grew up in Coventry.
He reminds me of O'Brien from 1984
The cloned voice kind of sounded like Sean Bean. "One does not simply walk into Stalingrad."
So once he starts talking in English he loses his German/ Austrian accent and sounds almost English.
People who listen to teddy roosevelts voice are also in for a surprise! Teddy had a high pitched voice some what annoying!
No one ever called him Teddy
This is really quite nutty.
😂
HEY!!! There's a recording with Mannerheim where AH says the Soviets built 35,000 tanks in peacetime, and he wouldn't have ordered Barbarossa if he'd known it. What's the matter? Don't you want your audience to know The Chief Culprit? (hint hint)

Its Mannheim actually xD
definitely does not sound like James Earl Jones. And yes he sounds a bit like Christopher Hitchens but without the smugness. His normal voice does retain the sharpness that comed across in his speeches.
I don’t think he would have a British accent
Of course he would. British sounding English is the most common in the world. Germany is geographically close to England. When you hear French speakers speak English, or Australians or Indians, they sound closer to British English than American. Why wouldn't he sound British? The reigning British royal family name was originally Saxe Coburg Gotha...until WWI. They are German.
@@Bailark Agreed. His nephew Patrick (who actually fought for the United States against his uncle) spoke English with a British accent. Most German officials who spoke English did as well. (Notoriously, Hermann Göring- when asked by an American guard asking for his autograph if he spoke English, she is said to have replied 'Of course I speak English. I am a German, not a savage!')
@@douglasharveyii That took a turn from linguistics. Let me state clearly that the Nazis were definitely savages. Hermann Göring's opinion of his humanity has no bearing on whether or not Germans sound like Brits when they speak English. Göring was an elitist turd who collected stolen art from all over Europe. Expensive tastes don't expunge the savagery that the Nazis committed.
No he would have an African one! lol
@@user-df8fq5nw3pAfricaans?
Why does he sound kinda like Thanos

In German, his accent almost sounds like a bit like what we'd call a country or hick accent in America, or maybe a little it's a bit Bavarian. Though his ability to deliver and use some very deep wording, some I didn't even know when I looked them up in English, is definitely crazy good & educated.
Barbarian bavarian.😊
That's pretty freaking bad that this man screamed, yelled, and bellowed so often, that it's a "rare treat" to hear his normal speaking voice.. What a sadistic human he was. I'm just glad that his birthday is totally overshadowed around the world by smokers celebrating 4/20.
Hey dude :3 the algorithm is pushing you :)
I listen to some german songs (varying in time period) and now im getting this ad. What does this mean
Imagine being you
He paid for this to be sponsored by TH-cam RETARD
And still
Great. He sounds like a combination between Vader and Thrawn. It's creepier than I'd have thought.
skip to @03:47 to avoid a needless, annoying and unending preamble. FFS why do people do this?
Sounds a bit like Richard Burton.
Yes,I get that too!
Kinda sounds like Christopher Hitchens
I don’t stand up for him but the USSR like he stated had by 1939 20,000 tanks so it’s either the them us it was going to happen
3:46 English here.
The only recording with Hitlers "normal speaking voice"? The look after his long Sportpalast speeches. Long passages you´ll find there with his "normal speaking voice".

he kind of sounds like jon snow from GOT
It would be far more impressive if the AI didn’t give him a British accent. ;o)
Seriously, the AI does a very, very good job! I’m impressed!
Dont forget though, that tape is very old and his voice could have been recorded at a higher speed than normal because of those old tape decks, so when modern machines play it back it would play slower making his voice sound deeper
Lip reading an outdoor meeting at the berghof,
It showed Hitler and Eva brauns relationship.
Hitler, standing, bends slightly to talk to Eva, who is on a sunlounger,
" their will be a film tonight".....
Eva... Looks disinterested.....
Hitler then says
" I know what film you want...... You want gone with the wind".....
At this, Eva laughs, so does Hitler, as he walks off to mingle with, speer, himmler, heydrich, borman, three other women, one of Bormans children, and several adcs and servants.
Is that a true story??

Most Germans remarked that it scared them how mundane his voice was. Pretty much everyone has a neighbour who sounds similar...
People always imagine evil to stand out, but that's exactly the problem... It doesn't until it's too late...
The guy achieved total power based primarily on his speaking ability. Ridiculous to assume that his voice would sound weird. I notice that Hitler's translation into English is literally into British English. It would be interesting to hear it cloned into American English.
My man, he achieved total power because he was the greatest Son of Europe.
Do you honestly believe a regular Austrian living in homeless shelters became the most powerful man in the country and one of the most powerful men in the world just by being a gifted speaker? In that case, I have a bridge to sell you.
Ever wonder who his biological grandfather was?
@@Aivottaja Don't tell me. It was a jew. You punk!
@@Aivottaja Ah, it wasn't his own skills, it was his genetics that account for Hitler's career. That's impressive, to diss Hitler with a super-Nazi argument. Mr Lawson is incorrect though, to credit Hitler's speaking ability. He took many ideas that were of the age, i.e. the Zeitgeist, fashioned them into a reasonably coherent ideology with tremendous emotional appeal, was able to convey that effectively when speaking - and knew how to recruit allies and play enemies against each other, gradually engineering more and more power for himself within the DAP, Bavaria, and Germany as a whole.
@@MrNyathi1 I wouldn't call being the son of an illegitimate R´0+hsch|Id "super Natzhee" argument. It's simple nepotism.
And before you go, yes, the obscurations of the words are required for the comment to pass. And even then it's not guaranteed. Can't say the R-word or the N-word.
Can you remove background noise? Surely you can shorten the pauses
The background noise sounds like a fart.
Apparently Hitler underwent a lot of voice coaching and learning the techniques of public speaking before his political carreer - if you could call it that - had really begun. His early attemps at making public speeches were apparently disastrous, so somebody, I can't remember who it was, helped him to improve his speaking skills. He originally had a strong Austrian or Tirolean accent and sometimes his personal secretaries, who were from Munich and elsewhere in Germany were surprised by some of the expressions he used and he could roll the 'r' quite strongly. In view of where this recording was made and the context, I'm guessing that Hitler was - from a linguistic point of view - on his 'best behaviour', shall we say, though I must admit I'm not a German speaker. Another thing that would seem rather strange is that this recording was played to Misch, one of the last surviving SS soldiers who had spent a lot of time as a member of Hitler's staff. His job was dealing with communications and he was on duty in the Bunker in Berlin up until the end. He stated that he didn't recognise Hitler's voice in this recording. It's a pity that the other survivors who had been part of Hitler's immediate entourage don't seem to have been asked to listen to it and give their opinion. It's too late now. Of course there are other recordings of Hitler where he isn't screaming and shouting, there's one when he is addressing an audience of German women where he is encouraging them to have more offspring to increase the German population. One other experiment has been carried out by an American team where they have used IT to analyse the facial expressions seen in the private Eva Braun films and recreate what is being said. It of course sounds very artificial and the content isn't particularly important.
Lmao no. The training bit might be correct but he stood out for his talent for speeches.
It felt like I was listening to my great grandfather again. He had a very deep voice with a rich German accent when he rarely spoke English. This was incredibly unnerving to hear.
Hitler had a deeper voice than all of these piss poor examples and the cadence of his voice was also way off.
I find it weird to think that Hitler’s full purpose to visit Finland was to try and get them to jump into the war on the side of Germany. But then he tells him about all the struggles? You’d think he talk about how the current war was balanced and only needed a Finland to turn the tide to win.
Maybe he wanted to be honest.
He'd most likely have a thick accent on top, here he sounds British
Native speakers don't have accents. You missed the point.
It's to hear what he would have sounded like as a native English speaker, so why on earth would you expect an Austrian accent?
@@conveyor2 The title is "How Hitler Would Sound Speaking English", not "How Hitler Would Sound If He Was Born In The UK"
@@WKogutthis is AI, it's not going to be perfect. this is already mind blowing how we can get this audio
@@conveyor2 Everyone has an accent. Think about it: Texans whose native language is English have Texan accents, Australians have Australian accents, Scousers have Scouse accents, etc.
Sounds more like Christopher Hitchens impersonating Richard Burton under hypnosis.
Those speeches in English with an AI animated Hitler would be cool but also a bit creepy.
NEVER FORGET WHAT NAZIS DID IN WORLD WAR II and how humanity, including USA soldiers suffered.
Will definitely check out this guy after watching this. With that world-weary tone, he would have made a great Hamlet. Imagine that voice reading Under Milk Wood. Can you do his singing voice?
A voice so deep? He only had one ball!
Only problem with that ai model is that it insists on turning everything into a kind of north London accent. So it isn’t a very accurate way to get the sound of his voice. Obviously if he spoke in English he would still have a German accent, and the accent plays a huge role in how a person sounds. So it isn’t really close to how he sounded, and the footage and other examples of him speaking are the only real way to get a feel for it.
It’s hard to explain because obviously Hitler sounds like Hitler, but if it were to be correctly sounding like Hitler did, rather than an ai voice quoting Hitler, it needs to be in a German accent and his voice still wouldn’t be the same as (mostly 1gb is probably still not enough to get it close enough).
Problem is most of what we hear in his speeches are pretty much yelling, however there is plenty of normal speech within those that gives us a good idea of how his voice sounded, and this sadly is nowhere near.
But I like the idea, and with more time it I’m sure it could be done.
Yes that is true
The whole idea is for English speakers to realise how we could have been taken in the same way so many Germans were. The way some British people were taken in by Mosley.
@@MrNyathi1 I get that. But it might as well just use Nigel Farages voice in that case as that seems to be having the same effect in contemporary society.
@@BantamsOnline I'll have to take your word for that, I have no idea who Farage is - we have enough terrible politicians of our own in South Africa not to worry overmuch about elsewhere...
His actual speaking voice before a smaller assembly is available in some places. You don't hear the screaming and the thunder, just a deep, smooth voice. It's worth listening to even if you don't sprechen sie Deutsch. **Jawohl.
