      there are a surprising number of inaccuracies in this video. once again its about demonizing and dehumanizing one of the most evil HUMANS in history. people love to make Hitler not seem human. despite the fact he was very much as human as the rest of us. people are uncomfortable seeing any thing that might make him seem less a monster. don't get me wrong the man was a monster and was the direct cause of millions of deaths. but to reduce him to a non human just undermines the savagery of his actions. it lessens the weight of his evil.

      @@dennisbarnes9317 comparing masks to a genocide? really? Why should I wear a mask for the rest of my life? Because I MIGHT get sick? Big whoop I sure didn't see any of you wearing a mask during flu season over the past years... Should we start forcing people to wear masks during flu season so we can further protect our vulnerable? I mean really its getting old being told that masks are absolutely a necessity and that they stop the spread of the virus!!! Yet we have been wearing them for a year now and it seems every month they would say the spread was getting worse and worse. When it comes down to it I disagree with pretty much everything that happened especially the shutdowns. The only people that should have been forced to quarantine were those at risk not healthy individuals. It was a moronic decision that ruined the economy drove people to suicide and led to families going hungry and being unable to pay the bills...Why would anyone think its a good idea to force healthy individuals to stay inside and become unhealthy? These people have less than a 1% chance of dying they have as good a chance of dying as they would if they had the flu... The only people dying are those at risk and more typically those at risk that are also above the average life expectancy. There was no good reason to completely shut down like we did and then all these stores halved their store hours for "cleaning" purposes which meant that everyone was packed in the stores like sardines which is absolutely far worse than just keeping the store opened its normal hours and just having someone constantly clean... You do not need an extra 8 hours to clean the store its ridiculous and all it does is force hundreds of people to pack into a building together... Yet that's what happened to pretty much every store and it was BS claiming its for the greater good so you can clean meanwhile you know its only helping spread crap by forcing us to be next to each other. Before all of this crap I went to the store at night and hardly anyone was near me. It took almost a year for that to somewhat go back to normal. That's almost a year being forced around a bunch of people even with that BS mask I still got covid... Which big whoop because its nowhere near as bad as the media portrays it.

      Yes! You are correct, though artists today that gain access to see his paintings claim that had Hitler been formally trained and went back in time a few decades, he might have joined the likes of Monet. Would have made for a good architect if he had finished school! Also, Biographics left out Hitler's friends having to talk him out of suicide after failing as an artist, and he originally didn't even want to take a leadership in the Nazi Party until asked to due to his charisma and elocution. After really learning about him in depth, I feel bad for Hitler. However, that's not meant to be an excuse for his actions, rather an explanation.

      It is definitely a biased opinion. Especially his drawings of cities were highly accurate and good! Do I like Hitler's morals, his decisions? No. But I see that often (not only with Hitler): if someone is hated, things he or she did well disappear and get hate as well. Sorry, but that's stupid. Plus: it's not objective, which is important for history (or in this case: a history channel). For everyone who is German: read "Hitlers Wien", written by Dr. Brigitte Hamann. The book is excellent and very well researched, you get an in-depth view of Hitler's life, what he went through before he became "Der Führer"; maybe what lead to his terrible decisions. I don't know if the book is available in English, but interested German people should read it. Very good and informative book about Hitler's early years.

    As a historian excellent job on the video, I would say you got this 80-85% correct. Adolf however was never unfaithful to Eva and she was his secretary for quite a few years before their relationship started.
    Eva did apply for the job and was interview with 4 other women at the same time.
    I think the scariest thing about Adolf is that he was a vegetarian. 😂😋

      The Soviets actually found the burned bodies themselves (as well as the man who burned them), the dentals was taken from one of them, then after years of testing the bodies were crushed and destroyed, a piece of skull was kept which had the DNA test done in recent years, but it turned out to be the skull fragment of a woman around 35 (Eva was 33). Hence the skull fragment is useless regardless (especially as Eva's remaining family have refused to have anything to do with it, nor have their DNA taken to be compared to it), but the dental records in the body was that of Hitler, verified independently by both Soviet and much later US specialists. Of course dental records aren't that difficult to fake or swap out, especially if you happen to be a dictator in a world before computers... Though even if by a miracle he did escape to South America, he's dead by now at least! The main conspiracy theory in fact claim he died around 1964.

      ''Other less important medical issues that Hitler had were also investigated by the Hestons. The first recorded medical illness for Hitler began in the 1930's and continued for the rest of his life. It was characterized by sharp, cramping right upper abdominal pain occurring shortly after meals. These clinical findings suggest biliary colic most probably due to a stone in the gallbladder to the Hestons. This illness brought Hitler together with Dr. Theo Morell would become Hitler's personal physician from then until Hitler's death in April 1945. In September 1944 Dr. Morell made an observation that Hitler was jaundiced. Jaundice may be seen in obstruction of the biliary duct system by a small stone but may also be seen in other disease entities such as certain liver diseases . Given the long history of frequent right upper abdominal pain following meals, this reader concurs with the authors in suspecting that a stone in the gallbladder was the primary process and that the jaundice was due to a separate small biliary stone which had temporarily occluded the lumen of common bile duct or common hepatic duct and which subsequently passed on its own. According to the authors, none of Hitler's doctors considered these diagnoses. Surgical treatment to remove biliary stones was readily available at that time. In additon, Dr. Morell's diagnosis for the abdominal pain and jaundice was viral hepatitis.
      In the last several years of his life Hitler experienced a neuro-degenerative disease manifest as a tremor involving first his entire left arm, subsequently his left leg (affecting his walking), and finally his right hand. Some have suggested that these tremors were due to Parkinson's disease but the tremors may have been due to the neurotoxicity of the amphetamines. In addition, Dr. Morell believed that Hitler sustained a small stroke in early 1945. The Hestons found nothing in the medical records of Hilter to indicate that Hitler has a single testicle.
      In late 1942 or early 1943, Dr. Karl Weber, cardiologist, diagnosed coronary artery atherosclerosis and in 1944 a myocardial infarction (heart attack) by electrocardiogram (EKG). Modern review of these EKG's have been interpreted as showing significant cardiac abnormalities but of uncertain cause. Hitler had borderline hypertension (high blood pressure) and had benign vocal cord polyps, secondary to overuse use of his voice, which were removed surgically.
      Hitler sustained multiple injuries during his lifetime. During World War 1 he had a shrapnel wound from a gunshot to his left thigh and shortly before the end of that war his eyes were injured by a poisonous gas attack which caused temporary blindness. His shoulder was fractured in the beer hall putsch in 1923. During the attempted assassination in July 1944 Hitler, shielded from the blast by a heavy table, sustained only bruises and abrasions as well as a perforation of both ear drums.
      In the final chapter of their book the Hestons speculate on the role that Hitler's amphetamine use had upon the history of the Nazi State and Europe.. Hitler's personality during the war years is contrasted with his personality during the early years of the Third Reich before he began using amphetamines. The Hestons conclude that Hitler's use of amphetamines did not lose the war for Germany but that the drugs affected Hitler's judgment and performance in a negative way which benefited the Allied cause in the war.
      The Hestons warn in the Afterword that Hitler may not be a chance aberration of history, but that his career fits into the current political structure of Western industrial democracies. They rhetorically ask: why the Germans did not remove him from office when he clearly became mentally incapacitated and incompetent? The authors state that "once a leader is confirmed by legitimate ceremonies and has a period of success then no matter how disastrous or ineffective his leadership becomes, unseating him is extremely difficult." The authors note that the 25 th amendment to the U.S. Constitution (1967) does provide a process for removal of a president from office against his/her will due to the President being unable to discharge the powers and duties of office. However the Hestons believe that it would be very difficult to actually accomplish this in peacetime, and in wartime probably impossible. The authors regard Adolf Hitler as being the first example of a professional politician, that is having neither another profession nor other source of income, a condition which is now dominant in western industrial societies. The Hestons warn that with this new type of political leadership that individuals with personalities and abilities like Hitler had might thrive, excel, and gain power. Furthermore the very high level of modern technology would increase greatly their power. The authors warn that unless the current political environment is altered, that in the long course of history Hitler may prove to be only the first of such disastrous political leaders.''
