The Jews of Warsaw were shipped to the extermination camp Treblinka II. But a plucky band of Polish army officers, doctors and Jewish slave labourers decided to launch an uprising in 1943 and escape from certain death at the hands of the SS.

It’s amazing how many heroes’ stories have been lost with time. Thank you for preserving their legacies.
Look up the story of Georg Elser. It's a story of courage, vision and determination. He was cowardly murdered by the Nazis and his story was almost lost.
Echo same sentiment.

Youre welcome
@kebab REMOVER I tried. It sucks.
Dr. Felton thank you very much for telling the story of this terrible place.
The audio only channel is one of the most underrated channels on TH-cam.
Thanks for every video!
Underrated comments are overrated. This is his 2nd channel its not doing that bad. Its not very old or somthething like that.
Reminds of the “as an (insert nationality, race or what have you here) assertion” which instantly makes the author a reliable and unbiased source.
Audio only channel? What the hell are you talking about? Doesn't you see the video this voice is comming from?
P 990099999998888
Yes! This alongside the Sobibor Uprising on October 14th 1943 are not spoken about enough! Delivering the goods again Dr Felton.
Agreed! Heroic struggles for freedom even within the gates of hell.
There is a super awesome movie about sobibor made in the 80s maybe it's badass it was one if my first experience learning about this. I think it's just called escaprnfir sobibor or something you'll find it
Holy crap I forgor.hie intense this movie is . It's in youtube. What's interesting is it's main characters pretty much are blonde haired and have blue eyes in I think this was done on purpose to express the hippocrasy of the holocaust. And probably the biggest movie in my generation where I was cheering for the russians
@@terriperry6291 Yes I’ve seen Escape from Sobibor many times, it has a particularly harrowing gas chamber scene.
@@terriperry6291 No the Rutger Hauer movie was too sanitised. The newer movie is better but still doesn't cover the true horror of these places.
I’m a simple man. I see “War Stories with Mark Felton uploaded,” I click.
I could listen to Mark discuss the intricacies of paint drying, and he would probably have me fascinated within minutes.
@Nope Not happening Nah he just likes to watch Mark, simp would be a lot more up there I believe
Same I am his biggest fan.
That will be certain to keep you simple, since his stories are complete fiction.
You are a curious man, that wants to know more.
I knew about Sobibor but not this one. Thank you for this captivating historical story Dr. Felton. My grandpa was a WW2 veteran. I asked him once what happened in the war. He paused a moment and then said, "Anything you can imagine happened in the war"... he had tears in his eyes when he said it over 40 years after the end of the war. He was involved in the liberation of a concentration camp. Sadly, I don't know which one.
it should be easy enough to find out which camp he liberated if you know his division or regiment ?
Most likely Dachau.....what unit did her serve with? This information can be found on his record of separation.
I'll have to talk to my dad, see if he knows what unit grandpa was in.
@Lily Hyatt Soviets liberated all of the primary death camps the near the eastern boarder of Poland.....The 42 and 45 Infantry Divisions liberated Dachau.....there is some dispute between the two divisions as to who was there first.
@@scottlosey4978 I know my grandpa's actual job in Europe was a train engineer. But he didn't have much of a chance to do his job and was used as infantry for most of the war. However, what about the concentration camp the 101st liberated? Idk what country that was in though. I know my grandpa was attached to the 101st for awhile but Idk for what portion of the war. I think near the end though. I'm just not sure. I need to find these things out.
You’re the greatest Mark! Anyone else who thinks Mark is the greatest say “yeah”! Yeeeaaaahhhhh!!!!
Big yeee hah from me😄
Yeah!
Yeahhh buddy
Shoah by lanzman. Now that’s a real doco. This is just rehashed stuff from the history channel.
Yeahhhhh
Horrific, absolutely horrific! Anyone who vouchers peace at any price need only to listen to these stories.
@Fabian Kirchgessner - Allies knew of Holocaust in 1942, 2 years before previously assumed, UN documents prove - www.timesofisrael.com/allies-knew-of-holocaust-in-1942-years-before-previously-assumed-documents-show/
As George Orwell said at the outbreak of WW2, 'pacifism is objectively pro-facist'. By that he meant that anyone refusing to fight on principle was inadvertently aiding the Nazi war effort. Of course we should always aim to settle things peaceably, but sometimes humanity just has to unite in order to destroy its worst creations by force.
Fucking A!
The bone crusher machine was particularly hard to look at
Thats a crazy argument, peace at any cost would mean submitting 100% to be ruled by the worst people ever, literally ! In this case that would be the Nazis ruling the entire planet.
Your episodes should be essential/compulsory viewing for lockdown history students of WW2. Brilliant, thank you Mark.
Man Sir Mark you never disappoint. Another story that puts me on the edge of my seat. It is amazing how you have such details about World History. 🏴🇬🇧🇺🇸
Just finished “the devil next door”
Between that show and this channel there is so much history that has been left to be forgotten as it is not taught in school.
What was the devil next door about briefly? Thx
@@juliebrothers6033
Heres the link i found on here it was easier to find the link than trying to type out the last name of the man accused

I could listen to your War Stories all day! In fact, I often do as I work. Thank you for sharing!
Same here all. I am glad I am not alone
Mee too 👍
"well-mannered sadist" yeah that's the stereotypical Nazi. Louis-Ferdinand Céline called it "their hangman's courtesy, their policeman's solicitude"
Nothing better then a cold one and a new war story after a long day of work
A ginger ale after work is pretty great.
You have a cold one and I will have a fat one!
@@armyvet8279 bingo!
I consider myself a reasonably informed amateur historian of the WW2 period, but I always learn new facts from your videos. Thanks for that, Mr. Felton.
The film "Shoah", by the French director Claude Lanzmann, contains an interview with one of the Treblinka SS guards, Franz Schomel. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franz_Suchomel. He agreed to be interviewed in the 1960s, provided it was not recorded, after he served four years for his role in exterminating 700,000 people at Treblinka. Lanzmann surreptitiously filmed the interview. In it Suchomel sings the Treblinka camp song, and then comments, with a smirk, "No Jew knows that song." I thought I had a good grasp of the Holocaust and World War II history, having studied it at university. But each one of your videos gives new details that greatly vivify the story with a unique perspective.
"But more on that later" - Marks been watching Lindybeige :D
as we all should be lol
Mark never commented before. Thank you for the excellence you have achieved in this videos. What a pleasure to learn from you.
Mark, as fascinating as ever. And what i appreciate most ... no sensational stories, just facts.
It's still sensational in the true sense, but totally get what you mean:)
Thanks for telling these dark tales of history. As is said at the end of every World War 2 channels War Against Humanity episode: Never Forget.
It always amazes me how effortlessly your voice only posts paint such vivid images in ones own mind.
This is a fantastic series Mark. I recently posted it on a Vets for Peace post about Witold Pilecki, the Polish resistance fighter who broke INTO Auschwitz to document what was happening, and survived for two years before breaking out by stealing SS uniforms and driving out the front gate in a staff car.
That Treblinka extermination camp map is disturbing. It's like if Satan had a theme park, this would be it.
@Sam Wiley and god allowed it ....
I think that would be Auschwitz, it was way bigger, and killed more people
@@411dedrick Because it operated for over 5 years. Treblinka was only in operation for roughly a year.
@@411dedrick treblinka was a murder camp. Auschwitz it depended if you could pass selections, what jobs you had.
@@jirkazalabak1514 I'm not even sure it matters.
I was just thinking after listening to the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising series how much I wanted to listen to one about this specific uprising. Thanks Mark.
My friend, Adrian's aunt escaped into the forest as the uprising went down.
She lived in Ostro-Mazowieska until the 1980s. There is nothing left but the train platform, the Nazis demolished everything.
I really don't want to listen to such an emotionally wrenching topic before bed but Mark made it...
Great work as always Mark, thank you
When you consider the number of people killed there, the number of those who survived as a percentage of those who arrived, and the relatively short period the camp functioned as an extermination center; I believe it can be fairly argued that Treblinka was the most lethal piece of real estate in the entirety of the Second World War.
probably all of humankind
I've not watched the video and maybe I won't but ---- when he says death camp, he is right; in all the horror of what humans can do to each other, this was one of the few places where you were sent to be murdered on schedule. Not worked to death, just killed. I hang my head in shame as a human, that we can be so inhumane.
@@Simon_Nonymous Nazis essentially had two categories of camps, extermination camps and concentration camps. Extermination camps like Treblinka II sole purpose was mass killing, usually within a few hours of arrival. Concentration camps like Auschwitz were slave labour camps in addition to mass killing. I believe all of the extermination camps were located outside of Germany.
@@gary-pv8vz sadly I have to say you are damn right, this is something I know a fair deal about from reading a lot, and this was one of the reasons I didn't watch the video. It's just too painful for me, and yes I think there were only six extermination camps and all located in what is basically Poland. Auschwitz as you say was a series of camps but Auschwitz-Birkenau II had no other purpose except to exterminate those who were not fit to be used as slaves. I can't imagine the horror of it. What a splendid species we are :-(
I think Unit 731 or S-21 by Pol Pot in Cambodia might rival this. Nevertheless each was equally as horrifying
Dr. Felton, can you address the issue of Nazi seizure of property such as a house and the repatriation by the original owner or descendants thereof.
always love to see the notification you posted a new video, keep up the great work !
We should not forget this horrific piece of history and especially how huge amounts of people were recruited and talked into undertaking these terrible acts.
It's happening again.
The war stories that you have so kindly uploaded to TH-cam are of such high quality!
Your narration is wonderful, I could listen to you all day.
Thank you for such a great job!♥
Treblinka, Sobibor and Belzec are often forgotten for some reason. Thanks for making this video.
For those interested, the extraordinary trial of the man @21:00 is presented in the miniseries, "The Devil Next Door".
Yes I remembered that in Netflix I watched
When they were teaching us about the war in school they never mention any uprising at the camps
That depends on what country you live in. Also, very often they teach this kind of stuff in high school and higher which is kind of sad. I remember that when I was in 5th grade they started teaching us history and I could not wait for WWII stuff. I even remember checking the table of contents in the book to find out there's nothing about WWII in there. So I was hoping it would change in 6th grade but nope... I had to wait 3 more years to learn about it in high school...
School history classes usually just skim over the main features, which is all they can do in the time they have.
The history of WW2 is very, very complex.
@@redmondmacdonagh7557 it is true but only partially in my opinion as they teach a lot of other, not as important things instead. I always find it stupid that I've been taught about some battles and wars of Roman Empire, Napoleon march to Moscow etc. over WWII and even WWI.
I grew up watching world at war and was fascinated by it. Mr felton I have learned more by watching your videos. I'm 63.
Mark always bringing the best content on TH-cam
Indeed; "Always has been" as they say
Forced to do disgusting inhumane things in the hope you'll live a bit longer? beggar's belief, great upload as we expect from Dr Felton
Problem is you dont know at the time that its only a little bit longer. You dont know what you'll resort to in the hope of living instead of dying. Lets hope we never have to learn.
We only know these stories because it happened in the West and the Germans had a penchant for keeping records. How many millions in the East suffered similar fates that we dont even know the scantest details about under the likes of the Japanese Army, Stalin's various genocides, and then those of Mao Tse Tung and Pol Pot?
@@qtig9490 hilter got 12 millon,
Stalin is rumored to have killed 40 million,
pol pot and chairman mao are rumored to be double Stalin
@@alt7488 Can you show me the evidence Pol Pot was responsible for 80 million dead?
A man that orders the horrific deaths of 5 million, 10 million or 80 million innocent people they are all equally evil. Thats far beyond the point where numbers make any difference.
@@CB-py1xh Accuracy is important as gross exaggerations like the example above give room for deniers to make claims.
Cambodia's pre Pol Pot population was 8m. So impossible to kill 80m.
Dr Felton, have you done a segment on Stalin’s purges of the Soviet officer corps? If not that would be interesting.
Tik has a good video on that if you search youtube!
Yes. This Would be interesting.
That's pretty well covered elsewhere.
Thank you Mark, these are fantastic. I appreciate your time and effort
Felton is a legend 🙌
🐐
@@AMM278 , Yes sir ,The 🐐
Clearly Professor Felton was peeping through my windows a few nights ago as I rewatched The Pianist for the first time in years.
As always, another great video!
I sometimes pause the videos and type out my little observations...about some trivial point of militaria, weapons, or tactics from my experience...Then I un-pause, listen, and start to get a partial sense, maybe, of the absolute gravity of the situations that Mark is describing. These last few videos have struck me hard, the Warsaw uprising and the resistance in the camps...the hopeless struggle and the struggle against hopelessness. This is history that I've read and studied for over 40 years now. But sometimes in the analysis of the campaigns, discussing the specifications of equipment, and debating the decisions of the commanders, I perhaps almost forget this part for a while....These Nazi bastards....This is what institutionalized racism looks like...Never again, people, never again.
@Fabian Kirchgessner even now in the UK, we are far from perfect. I commend RGB's observation on the horror we are trying to understand, and your comment Fabian carries a lot of weight. Let us condemn the criminals but let us make sure we are not criminals ourselves, even in a small way.
The racism in America is becoming more accepted and it is nauseating thinking about the catastrophies that lie in wait. America is not invincible and one day we will feel the agony of the military occupation we love to laugh about.
Golden rule: treat others the way you want to be treated.
@@BubblewrapHighway
You watch to much msm, and listening to the government.
@@BubblewrapHighway I'm not sure where you get the idea that racism is becoming more acceptable. If anything it is the opposite.
@@BubblewrapHighway Only viable path would be through Mexican ports and shores. First they have to cross the ocean, then they have to successfully land and control extremely violent cartel territory, they would then have to cross the border as well and pick a coast to direct the army. The sheer scale of that type of operation makes enemies realize why they shouldn’t waste money and time
The best part of the audiobook is that they have a map of the camp, I always wondered about how it looks like in a map. Thanks Mark.
Been listening to you for years your channel is probably the most informative interesting channel on TH-cam thank you so much for the videos I've learned so much about world war II because of your channel it's amazing that if not for the fact of finding your channel I wouldn't have known any of this
Another great documentary. Can't wait for the sequels. Thank you very much for your work!
Thanks for this! I heard about sobibor uprising (and saw a British movie about it from 80s) but haven't heard much about the treblinka uprising, other than it happened and Germans erased the camp, but Soviets uncovered remains later
The movie is called Escape from Sobobor and starred Rutger Haur, Alan Arkin and Joanna Pacular. I'm not sure if it was a UK movie though.
@@simonkevnorris It was made in the UK, and aired on ITV in Britain on May 10, 1987. It was aired on CBS in the United States on April 12, 1987. The CBS airing was the 143 minute version. The ITV airing was the full 176 minute version.
Learning more here of the role Trawniki played, bravo Mark, a solidly great episode.
Thank you Dr. Felton. The videos you produce are so important to those that don't know or remember the true horror of war and the inhumanity it can bring.
Thank you Dr. Felton! I am sick and this makes me feel better, you are amazing!
Get well soon!
The world needs knowledge of history now more than ever. Thanks for your hard work.
Thank you for shining more light on this and other atrocities. It must never be forgotten.
Wonderful presentations. Thank you for producing and sharing them with us. Not only are your topics interesting and add a new dimension to the World Wars as we know them but I can understand every word you say! Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.!
Thank u Mark for covering the 1943 uprising.
Brilliant narration of a sensitive subject 👏👏
I get excited every time I see that you’ve uploaded a new video! I’m gonna save this for just before bedtime tonight!
Thank you, Mark, for putting out such great videos.
The movie "Gray Zone" was about Auschwitz Sonderkommando....I can't even it was so dark.
Living in a society today that silences counter arguments and dissent, it’s not really that hard to imagine.
This is exactly the the sort of mindset why I call the 'woke' lefturds, accurately, "Fascists."
your labor camp has internet?

Thank you again Dr. Felton! Your content is stark and powerful.
i just became a subscriber on Patreon, which I would recomend every one else to do. I always look forward to Dr. Felton's Videos and Podcasts and I realize that he should be compensated for his hard ( and excellent ) work. Happy to do it!!
...and I also love your opening music (theme) and I hope you keep it around a long time!
Dr. Mark Felton, my kind request to you, do upload more videos, you're channel ❤ is one of the favourite among other TH-cam channel keep going sir✌
Mark’s video could never be too detailed, too informative or too long.
Great video, thanks. Reminds us of something. Whenever one group starts defining those outside the group, or a particular sub group, as being different, and they need to not be here anymore, this is what they mean.
They'll deny it in all keys of the tone ladder, but this is where that leads. With pits at the back of camps, disguised as a hospital, and men with guns standing over them.
Great upload. I absolutely love the longer multiple part ones.
Thanks again.
Mark you are a treasured GIFT to the community*
*even if you haven't yet featured the uncommonly sexy British Cruiser 6 Crusader Mk 3 tank : )
MARK FELTON you are a badass!
You sir have done beyond well on this video, my hat is off to you. Please keep this outstanding content coming.
Thanks Dr. Felton!
Thank you Mark!!!
Excellent as usual. Readers who want to know more might be interested in Trap With a Green Fence, by survivor Richard Glazar, and Into That Darkness, biography of Franz Stangl, by Gitta Sereny. Also the Suchomel (Treblinka SS guard) Interview by Claude Landsman, as part of his film, Shoah.
Excellent video. Very interesting, informative and worthwhile video.
I love your videos so much. I have always been fascinated by WW2 and Vietnam war since a young age and all military history. Mark you truly go in depth beyond most documentaries and even some historical nonfiction. Would you consider making any videos on WW1 or Korean War?
The pic @9:23, centre front is thought to be John Demjanjuk serving at Sobibor death camp. Taken from the recently uncovered Sobibor album.
So the SS was the most ethnically diverse division within the German military? that's hilarious
they did the math and said all the purity you need is being pure in being a total psycho
They weren’t e part of the military didn’t you listen in the beginning? They were a separate service and that’s why Himmler had to hire anyone he could because the army would only allow a tiny number of actual German citizens to be used in the SS instead of as army manpower.
@@marcusjohnbondurajr splitting hairs don't you think? yes they were technically a paramilitary group but plenty of SS saw front line combat on nearly every front of the war, and an entire division (the Waffen SS) was setup specifically to be combat troops
Blake Nestell “Diversity is our strength”?
I was about to write something about this. Mark Felton did talk about French SS fighting in Berlin, and former Latvian SS who guarded the Nuremberg Trials. World War Two was brutal, but it was also weird.
Many thanks Felton!
Amazing video and narration.
Cheers Mark
For the algorithm and great work BTW 👌🏽
I’m always astonished by Marks’ brilliant assessment of WWII!

Good take on Demjanjuk, been following his case since he made the Cleveland papers in the eighties
I believe he died in a prison over there before he was convicted..... I’d have to double check if he was or wasn’t convicted.
