@@bigmoniesponge that’s because they would only interview the veterans who still mentally healthy and alive, for every healthy veteran there are a few ones who are with dementia or Alzheimer’s and just waiting to die
@@grzegorzbrzeczyszykiewic3338 yes true, but these are people who were in the bunker during the last days, maybe not the true architects of the war but people at the top of the party who lived, ate and interacted with Mr H on an everyday basis.
Mark Felton posts a video about hitler’s remains. Now if this was the ‘history’ channel I wouldn’t give it time of day but with Mr Felton’s extremely good and knowledgable content I click instantly
If this was the History Channel, they'd claim the space-aliens who gave the Nazis their flying wing technology and anti-gravity time machines were trying to reanimate Hitler.
a mention of Axmann in Gran Canaria caught my attention. I have heard a story of German emmigrants in Tenerife who used to celebrate Hitler's birthday until relatively recently. There were more prominent cases in Argentina, but many of those old school Nazis could have probably found a new home in Franco's Spain.
Now it’s Canada where the House of Commons stood to applaud an old Ukrainian former Nutsy for fightingbsgainst the Russians who were Cansda’s allies in WW2.
In August 2009, the crypt (belonged to Joe DiMaggio) above Marilyn Munroe's grave, was sold by Elsie Poncher for US$4.6 million to an un-named bidder. (Ponchers husband bought it when Joe divorced Marilyn in 1954). She removed her deceased husbands coffin to another crypt belonging to her. Thus freeing the space over Marilyn's grave. September 2016 the ashes of playwright Truman Capote were sold for US$61,000. There are possibly 'secret' sales of ashes. Otherwise some small sales of famous peoples hair or some body parts. It's very rare. So who could say? And as for 'these ashes', it would probably be done in total secrecy.
Since the bunker was called the "Fueherbunker", I wonder if any of the staff had behind-his-back names for stuff and places like the "Fuehertoilet", "Fueherchair", "Fueherpaperclips", and so on. It is sort of like the way McDonald's puts "Mc" in front of so much of their stuff. Office workers were probably no different then than they are now and that probably goes double for soldiers. Any private comment to break the tension at the expense of the man in charge.
They shouldn't have murdered so many ss nazis ,they had info thats lost forever . Today it would be like those mob videos where they have a high ranking former mafioso tell stories that would be lost forever.
Question 1: Was Hitler a Rothschild? Question 2: Was he alive? If he did survive the war, did he end up in the Hollow Earth @ Antarctica? Question 3: Did some of the Nazi members ended up working and living in the US? Question 4: 'is' Merkel his daughter whom he never had?
I recently watched Downfall for the first time and was blown away by that film. I was wondering though, on this channel I remember hearing that Goebbels last will and testament was also recorded by Traudl, but they were destroyed inside of the bunker by someone after he had killed himself. Is this true?
@Greg Bray You would not believe the items I have held in my own hands ,even here in the states. My friend owns a Collectable brokerage in Scranton,Penna(in his 80's now) (Carl Barbini\ Mace's)and I would be in when Don Boyle (his friend)would bring in new items that entered his collection to show him. Not the common Day badges ,etc either.. Someone shared a birthday with Hitler,and he personally wrote a card with his personal picture and a note sent to them. Items as those.(Think it was a Cousin of his) Don Boyle was the premiere Honour Ring and memorabilia expert before Craig Gottlieb,wrote the first book on them. Major Snyder Treasure Trove had Eva's panties(Sad) and Hitler's water color art for sale two decades back. Crazy the items retained and took back to these nations. Gottlieb had Hitler's desk set that the 1938 Munich pact was signed on ,and I wonder if he sold it.? A few times Don Boyle came in when I was there, and I think they got a kick out of seeing my eyes light up like a Christmas tree. That Card was in a Plexi case ,and he paid 10,000 USD for it he said. I hold a few (untouched)DCM groupings from Hill 60,but nothing on that level.lol...
You are a LEGIT historian Dr. Felton! You actually seek out the history and find new ground instead of repeating the same thing everyone else knows. #1 Hands down

Hitler lived on...only certain ppl have to bring this subject up over & over again, and dispise that kind and they damn well know WHO THEY ARE......b/c they are so dilusional and have to make German people look bad.

@@ftffighter I was not referring to your personal comment. I apologize! Just annoid with this link of Propaganda and how many fall for it. Honestly I was focused on LEGIT historian, which triggered me, but again apolgize..I gather it was the irony I did not grasp right away.
it's incredible to think there were close to a million SS at the end of the war and most just went home, hung up their uniforms and went back to their lives. So many escaped war crimes.
I love how Mark Felton presents the facts and largely leaves it to the viewer to draw their own conclusions. I wish I had a history teacher like Mark. I might have chosen a different profession.
@Eat a Dick true enough. I have followed up on some of his other videos and have not found any major discrepancies. At some point you have to trust the source. I don’t have the time to verify every video I watch. At some point you either trust the TH-camr or you don’t and stop watching. How about you? Do you check every video you watch?
Omg ! So what people I don't get it why people hate nazi so much It's not like Americans killed 10 million red indians.. And after that in middle East currently number is around 20 million so i think people who pay their tax in America are the people who killed more people than the Nazis
This is one of the few channels on TH-cam that doesn’t skew left nor right and just gives us the facts so we may decide our opinions ourselves. Thank you Dr. Felton for these consistent bangers
@@sonsen25 "what a ridiculous statement"...I'm really curious as to whom you are referring. TH-camr Reworkd said it all very truthfully and succinctly, that "this is one of the few channels on TH-cam that doesn't skew left nor right and just gives us the fact.....". Sounds like he is "keeping it real" to quote the kids these days.
Can but echo and agree gavychipplease. Having said that I also agree with Mark. Insomuch of his material is so unbeleivable........ You end up thinking NO! that can't be true!
To have this man as a teacher would be an honour to any school, and when I was leaving school history had been overtaken by simpletons that were only text book read, unlike the exiting teachers that lived and defended this country, and brought some life and meaning to history of the Second World War
@@1joshjosh1 Well mankind is acctually on the brink of going into the same direction. U see, media still telling lies. Banks still do weird stuff with money, Camera's are still being placed everywhere for control. And people are forced to vaccinatie twice a year or they wont be able to work. While having second hand citizens. So No i dont know everything, But i do know that about 20 human rights are currently being broken in our country, witch mostly leads to chaos. The politicians are already dividing people into groups. And most of the population has the brains of a donkey. Not understanding to defend your and their human rights.
You’re so meticulous in your research. Your channel is one of the finest on TH-cam. Thank you for your hard work to bring us this important historical information.
but we already know that H. physical body part/skull bone exists - in a Russian archive....the narrative/proposal of this video is therefore rubbish/hollow
That is the first I have heard that Blondie had puppies. If one died with her what happened to the rest of the litter? I assume she was registered. The Germans love documentation. Does her bloodline still exist? If the records exist I would think they would be easy to track. It's probably hanging on someones wall.
Interesting thought. I looked up the dog Blondi, and according to an article I read she had a litter of 5 puppies. Wulf was Hitler's favorite of the puppies, the other puppies' names are unknown. Blondi was poisoned by Hitler, then the 5 puppies were shot after Hitler's death by the dog trainer. They were afraid of what would happen to the dogs if they were captured by Soviet soldiers.
@@_Dovar_ Yes I agree. My earlier comment was more-so to say that there's no record of the puppies other than them being shot. Whether or not they actually got shot is a different story.
Another in depth intresting topic, with an excellent voiceover, the intro music sets the historical vibe, and the content is excellent. I still can't belive this is free, Mark, I just have to say, thanks for the amazing content, and work you put into these videos.
Mark I truly hope you never stop making videos or change the way you make them. I’ve been watching them for so long and as someone who loves history you’re always my go to!
Mark Felton literally gives a better education of World War 2, for free than any University Education could ever buy. You are one of the very few true historian's Sir.
Have you actually done a university degree majoring in history? This channel is cool, but it’s patently absurd to compare it to studying history at University. This is like people who have watched a few TH-cam videos on COVID arguing with people who have PhDs in virology.
An alternative location for AH' ashes could be Austria. Specifically in the Vienna Central Cemetery, in the grave of his niece; Angela Maria "Geli" Raubal.
Mark, I'd like to find out more about the people's attitude in Germany after the war during rebuilding. Had the nazi doctrine remained ingrained or were the majority only complying during the war due to fear? I can't imagine how people communicated with each other after such a defeat and destruction of thier country.
Agree. It’s an interesting question that’s so hard to discuss today. Even worse IMHO is that globalists often get away w/comparing some initiatives to the Third Reich out of political convenience to get their way. It bothers me because I firmly believe that truth is all that should matter in history because it allows humanity to learn from the mistakes of the past.
I'm no expert, but here's what I believe, by most accounts there wasn't really much civilian support towards the end of the war amongst the general populace due to the resource limitations and because the illusion of greatness was shattered inexplicably. In fact, after a while (just like in the Great War), even the soldiery had been skeptical of the propaganda trying to get their hands on foreign newspapers from neutral countries (Spain or Switzerland being the most obvious). The final stages of the war had seen nearly the entire German population see and feel the effects of the war, many had seen family die as "Total War" carried out. Put frankly, it would make sense if the vast majority of the German population was entirely apathetic towards politics in general. With investment of foreign nations into West and East Germany by the leader of the respective spheres the populations had been tamed for the most part. After all, food became more available, resources that would have previously gone to the army flooded back to the civilians, and new economies allowed the people to improve their situations for the first time in a LONG time, note that the German economy during the war was entirely reliant on constant military expansion (so when they started retracting or stagnating things weren't good). One of the easiest ways for me to point out that there wasn't much support is simple. Where were the Partisans? There were very few high profile or successful resistance movements post war, sure they existed but there wasn't much controversy amongst the populace in rooting them out, nor was their support widespread enough for them to effectively do anything MEANINGFUL. If they had a large degree of support, information, shelter and outcry would have came with it but it clearly didn't. Hell, even the Werwolf program was about 90% propaganda from Goebbels.
@Alex M That is glib, immature and demonstrably untrue. The victorious Liberal democracies are home to all shades of published opinion, many of which are viscerally critical of all aspects of the Allied prosecution of the war. The treatment of non-White races, the strategic bombing campaign, lack of support for the Jews, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Geo-politics in the Middle East, on and on ad nauseum are all picked apart in books available in shops and libraries the length and breadth of the English-speaking world.
Imagine having the chance to dual-wield Hitler's Walther and Princip's revolver, having the weapons that essentially began and ended the World Wars in Europe in both hands.
It makes more sense that some of his remains were gathered than just abandoned, by those who oversaw the cremation - because as you said, the soil made the cremation difficult and it would have been a persistent effort to keep the cremation going. And in order to resurrect the reich in some way - it is more than plausible that loyal individuals collected remains to be kept as a sort of holy relic for future generations. I have often wodered about the account or story we are told of "he shot himslef and he was burned, and the soviets found the ashed. end of story". Its too simple to be believeably totally correct. Thankyou for this, makes more sense than non sense as it were.
The fall of Berlin has got to be one the most desperate, dramatic, and profound moments in all of world history. Also, Mark Felton is a National Treasure. 🇬🇧
Not really.. It was a certainty after Kursk and Stalingrad... Simply a mopping up operation...Hitler had no social media or he would have shot himself behind the ear rather than in the temple... which often leads to quadriplegia... Guy at my gun club stuck it in his mouth and blew half his jaw off ! He felt silly... He was silly....
Brilliant documentary. I have a "world at war" on DVD. I gave my father VSH at the time - he was Newcastle minesweeper from start to finish of the war. Full medals.This documentary has the same intelligence and narration. Thank you
OMG. You do a great service, Mark. This one was exceptional! I’m another viewer who appreciates your amazing deep dives. Ok I’ve figured out ur secret sauce, and it’s really simple: Blow our minds with with so much detail and richness that history comes alive. I regularly check ur videos as I’m watching them, kinda always hoping they are longer. What you do is valuable, sir, and much appreciated!
Incredible! I suspect Axmann passed the location of the remains to the younger generation, the big question is did those younger people go dig the box up or just leave it and it's still there...
He wouldn't have been flown to Neuschwabenland in a kugelblitz, but rather brought via Unterseeboot, maybe one of the two U-boats that surfaced off the coast of Argentina at Mar del Plata well after the war's end. Soon after, the U.S. staged Operation HIGHJUMP, with its flotilla of ships comprising West Group and an East Group that circumnavigated Antarctica in a pincer move ending at Queen Maud Land . . .
Mark, excellent video presentation. I also recall seeing a documentary that Hitler had actually made it to South America and had lived for some time after the war, are you aware of this other theory?
Can't help but agree with that version. Nazi's never stopped and they had very close ties to very prominent families in the USA as well as Canada. Just follow the money.
I'm sorry but he's not . He's a brilliant narrator but that's all...what research does he do himself ? He provides the same narrative as mainstream historians whilst denying the plethora of evidence which refutes said narrative . . It's easy to be a sheep !
@@mikethomas4423 i will explain it gently- just because mainstream views exist and are mainstream, doesnt mean they are wrong. sometimes- the reason is general agreement on th facts is because tehy are true, verifiable and actually, you know- a fact. Not fiction. You are not the magic holder of truth just because you found some photoshopped BS on facebook.

Hey Mark. Great work as usual. I am always watching your channel. You provide information that I did not know existed. I am seventy four, and I have been following the events of WW1 and WW11 since I was around ten years old. I thought that I knew most of this period of history. Well, you proved me wrong. You gave me facts and figures that I did not know existed. Keep up your good work, because even at my age I am still willing to learn. Highest Regards, Brian Minter, A true Scot......

just when one thinks that Mark is running out of history , he delivers more compelling stories, Amazing stories that i love to listen to. Oh can you mark find out or give a story about the radio/telephone operator from the Bunker as such a person had valuable information of all that went on
Mr Felton may be a time traveler that has manipulated world events to bring us a truly remarkable TH-cam channel or he does his research with no stone unturned. I haven't figured out witch yet.
Mark Felton can just do videos about the fight between the USA and the USSR in the cold war (like the Korean War and the Vietnam war) and then he will never run out of stories.
There is a Polish man named "Erich Kempka" who grew up in the Ruhr area of Germany where he eventually joined the NSDAP (Nazi Party) and became the commander of Hitler's personal SS body guard unit after he joined the SS. This Erich Kempka knew everything about what was going on in Hitler's bunker and most of the information that the NKVD / KGB / SVR-RF and the OSS / CIA have about what Hitler was doing in the last year of the war is from interviewing this Polish man, Erich Kempka, and taking detailed notes on what he said. Erich Kempka also wrote a book called "I Was Hitler's Chauffeur" which you can maybe find as a PDF document on the internet.
@@bernardtaylor7768 HE is an insider for the elite bending truths to form opinions. Only followers fall for shallow stories.

Hard to know. They really didn't tell anyone what was really going on. Washington DC learned well from these lads 😁👌 I find it hard to believe, that someone with vast resources, connections and wealth would allow themselves to be trapped in Berlin. My brother lived in South America teaching in English. There were Germans everywhere. Entire German towns Actually, the locals nickname for him was Alemão (german), because he was European, and they had grown up with all these German settlers everywhere, they were so used to them. They called white people Alemão
@@WolfsH0ok however, I have to add that German immigration in Brazil (I presume you are talking about Brazil due to Ã) started in 1824, we've been here for decades prior to WW2
@@WolfsH0ok yeah, but he did allow himself to be trapped in Berlin. A long string of denials of reality and failing health, as well as actually refusing to take the airplane that could have taken him out of the doomed city. He died like a rat in a cage, and eventually took the cowards way out.
Hopefully it will never be found, If it still exists it's better to be kept hidden. You can't enjoy history today even if it's dark history, Lefties would be throwing a temper tantrum for it to be destroyed.

What about the declassified CIA files on the man you're talking about here where you can see his photos and that he was still alive in the 1950's where CIA agents talk about how he moved to Argentina and never killed himself?
He already did a video about the "Werewolf". As far as I know they didnt do so much actions, the assasination of Aachen's mayor and some other few clashes. But to have something new would be interesting. I think the Werewolf were more of a promise-propaganda thing that didn't developed to be what it was supposed to be, thats may be the reason that in his video he didn't talked so much about other actions of them. There's a case of a young girl parachuting with 3 other guys in allied zone and killing some guy, I just don't remember her name. This was a Werewolf action.
@@pagodebregaeforro2803 I know of Mark's video on the Werewolf myth. But of the few attacks that were carried out, and what kind of organizations they ran, I would love to read more about and hear about.
I thought Eva Braun carried an Ortgies in 7.65x17 Browning auto? Why was she found with a Walther? ..By the way, .32 acp and 7.65 Browning are not the same cartridge despite many saying otherwise. You can check SAAMI and CIP specs to verify this. 7.65 Browning uses a .309 bullet @ 22,500 psi max. .32 acp uses a .312" bullet @ 20,000 psi max.

Since the bunker was called the "Fueherbunker", I wonder if any of the staff had behind-his-back names for stuff and places like the "Fuehertoilet", "Fueherchair", "Fueherpaperclips", and so on. It is sort of like the way McDonald's puts "Mc" in front of so much of their stuff. Office workers were probably no different then than they are now and that probably goes double for soldiers. Any private comment to break the tension at the expense of the man in charge.

Why it’s just ash ? Lol
So much of it I've never heard of before. It's truly fascinating!!
They shouldn't have murdered so many ss nazis ,they had info thats lost forever . Today it would be like those mob videos where they have a high ranking former mafioso tell stories that would be lost forever.
Question 1: Was Hitler a Rothschild?
Question 2: Was he alive? If he did survive the war, did he end up in the Hollow Earth @ Antarctica?
Question 3: Did some of the Nazi members ended up working and living in the US?
Question 4: 'is' Merkel his daughter whom he never had?
@@liamlee9653 As you know the earth is flat and his submarine fell off , where I don't know.
I recently watched Downfall for the first time and was blown away by that film. I was wondering though, on this channel I remember hearing that Goebbels last will and testament was also recorded by Traudl, but they were destroyed inside of the bunker by someone after he had killed himself. Is this true?
I wrote a paragraph response to this and then realised I misread 'Goebbels' as 'Goering'
@Greg Bray You would not believe the items I have held in my own hands ,even here in the states.
My friend owns a Collectable brokerage in Scranton,Penna(in his 80's now) (Carl Barbini\ Mace's)and I would be in when Don Boyle (his friend)would bring in new items that entered his collection to show him.
Not the common Day badges ,etc either..
Someone shared a birthday with Hitler,and he personally wrote a card with his personal picture and a note sent to them.
Items as those.(Think it was a Cousin of his)
Don Boyle was the premiere Honour Ring and memorabilia expert before Craig Gottlieb,wrote the first book on them.
Major Snyder Treasure Trove had Eva's panties(Sad) and Hitler's water color art for sale two decades back.
Crazy the items retained and took back to these nations.
Gottlieb had Hitler's desk set that the 1938 Munich pact was signed on ,and I wonder if he sold it.?
A few times Don Boyle came in when I was there, and I think they got a kick out of seeing my eyes light up like a Christmas tree.
That Card was in a Plexi case ,and he paid 10,000 USD for it he said.

That is the first I have heard that Blondie had puppies. If one died with her what happened to the rest of the litter? I assume she was registered. The Germans love documentation. Does her bloodline still exist? If the records exist I would think they would be easy to track. It's probably hanging on someones wall.
The heiress to the führership.
Interesting thought. I looked up the dog Blondi, and according to an article I read she had a litter of 5 puppies. Wulf was Hitler's favorite of the puppies, the other puppies' names are unknown. Blondi was poisoned by Hitler, then the 5 puppies were shot after Hitler's death by the dog trainer. They were afraid of what would happen to the dogs if they were captured by Soviet soldiers.
@@MichelleMyBelle2.0
They all obviously fled to Argentina.
@@_Dovar_ Yes I agree. My earlier comment was more-so to say that there's no record of the puppies other than them being shot. Whether or not they actually got shot is a different story.

An alternative location for AH' ashes could be Austria. Specifically in the Vienna Central Cemetery, in the grave of his niece; Angela Maria "Geli" Raubal.
Mark, I'd like to find out more about the people's attitude in Germany after the war during rebuilding. Had the nazi doctrine remained ingrained or were the majority only complying during the war due to fear? I can't imagine how people communicated with each other after such a defeat and destruction of thier country.
Agree. It’s an interesting question that’s so hard to discuss today. Even worse IMHO is that globalists often get away w/comparing some initiatives to the Third Reich out of political convenience to get their way. It bothers me because I firmly believe that truth is all that should matter in history because it allows humanity to learn from the mistakes of the past.
I'm no expert, but here's what I believe, by most accounts there wasn't really much civilian support towards the end of the war amongst the general populace due to the resource limitations and because the illusion of greatness was shattered inexplicably. In fact, after a while (just like in the Great War), even the soldiery had been skeptical of the propaganda trying to get their hands on foreign newspapers from neutral countries (Spain or Switzerland being the most obvious).
The final stages of the war had seen nearly the entire German population see and feel the effects of the war, many had seen family die as "Total War" carried out. Put frankly, it would make sense if the vast majority of the German population was entirely apathetic towards politics in general. With investment of foreign nations into West and East Germany by the leader of the respective spheres the populations had been tamed for the most part. After all, food became more available, resources that would have previously gone to the army flooded back to the civilians, and new economies allowed the people to improve their situations for the first time in a LONG time, note that the German economy during the war was entirely reliant on constant military expansion (so when they started retracting or stagnating things weren't good).
One of the easiest ways for me to point out that there wasn't much support is simple. Where were the Partisans? There were very few high profile or successful resistance movements post war, sure they existed but there wasn't much controversy amongst the populace in rooting them out, nor was their support widespread enough for them to effectively do anything MEANINGFUL. If they had a large degree of support, information, shelter and outcry would have came with it but it clearly didn't. Hell, even the Werwolf program was about 90% propaganda from Goebbels.
@Alex M agree
@Alex M That is glib, immature and demonstrably untrue. The victorious Liberal democracies are home to all shades of published opinion, many of which are viscerally critical of all aspects of the Allied prosecution of the war. The treatment of non-White races, the strategic bombing campaign, lack of support for the Jews, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Geo-politics in the Middle East, on and on ad nauseum are all picked apart in books available in shops and libraries the length and breadth of the English-speaking world.

He wouldn't have been flown to Neuschwabenland in a kugelblitz, but rather brought via Unterseeboot, maybe one of the two U-boats that surfaced off the coast of Argentina at Mar del Plata well after the war's end. Soon after, the U.S. staged Operation HIGHJUMP, with its flotilla of ships comprising West Group and an East Group that circumnavigated Antarctica in a pincer move ending at Queen Maud Land . . .

Mr Felton may be a time traveler that has manipulated world events to bring us a truly remarkable TH-cam channel or he does his research with no stone unturned. I haven't figured out witch yet.
Mark Felton can just do videos about the fight between the USA and the USSR in the cold war (like the Korean War and the Vietnam war) and then he will never run out of stories.
There is a Polish man named "Erich Kempka" who grew up in the Ruhr area of Germany where he eventually joined the NSDAP (Nazi Party) and became the commander of Hitler's personal SS body guard unit after he joined the SS. This Erich Kempka knew everything about what was going on in Hitler's bunker and most of the information that the NKVD / KGB / SVR-RF and the OSS / CIA have about what Hitler was doing in the last year of the war is from interviewing this Polish man, Erich Kempka, and taking detailed notes on what he said. Erich Kempka also wrote a book called "I Was Hitler's Chauffeur" which you can maybe find as a PDF document on the internet.

Outstanding Mark. An intriguing view on a subject that many would say we knew everything about. Clearly not and that’s what makes your work stand out.
I thought Eva Braun carried an Ortgies in 7.65x17 Browning auto? Why was she found with a Walther? ..By the way, .32 acp and 7.65 Browning are not the same cartridge despite many saying otherwise. You can check SAAMI and CIP specs to verify this. 7.65 Browning uses a .309 bullet @ 22,500 psi max. .32 acp uses a .312" bullet @ 20,000 psi max.
I can't survive a day without hearing the ominous Mark Felton Productions intro music. The ultimate baddie "jingle".
I swear your intro is like a meme that lives rent free inside my head. Also, the minute I hear that music, I know a good history lesson is coming.
This was much needed. I think I’ve watched every single ww2 documentary on the internet. 🤷♂️
That's a lot of propaganda
Disgusting that they got away with such little punishment.
That's why the jews started doing their own nazi hunting, Nuremberg was a show
Mark tells these stories like no other. Brilliant stuff. Always interesting and engaging. Thank Mark. Keep up the good work.
Shivers. Axmann's run through Germany evokes that unsettling movie 'Third Man ' that made it the greatest British film of all time.Great work.Best wishes.
The best british movie if all time would be Carry on up the kyber in my opinion.
Outstanding beyond measure here, such an historical body of work in voice where does he find the energy less the time! Photographs many stunning, fascinating.Raised the bar here just Wow. Thanks Mark love all your WWII work, everything!!
I can't stress how fascinating Antony Beevers book on the Battle of Berlin is. I hope we never see similar times anywhere.
Mark brings this perIod to life better than anyone, and he constantly reveals new twist and fascinating details. Well researched, edited and delivered. Should be a series on PBS
Dr Felton...I am deeply surprised again by the quality and depth of one more fabulous video. Not enough words to thank you. Please keep this wonderful job.
Dental records could have easily been bogus. The wealthiest man in Europe retired comfortably in S. America.
Brilliant Mark, just brilliant. The time and effort you put in for us plebs to learn new stuff is amazing. You sir are a true Gent and a Fantastic Teacher.
Speak for yourself Bat Man , I’m no pleb .
@@chrisgray3898 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
Dr Felton is exceptional. He always succeeds in presenting a most interesting and in-depth analysis of historical records.
incredible, I thought I knew everything there was to know on this subject but Mark uncovers yet more. Why am I not surprised !
@Be Kind lol wth are you talking about?
That says more about your own ego, thinking you know everything about a subject, than you realised. You will never know everything about anything.
You’re work never ceases to impress me, Thank You Dr. Felton!!!
Your spelling ceases to impress me
@@rajivmurkejee7498 ok, you got me there, LoL!
