@@mercatorjubio3804 Hitler was actually never admitted to the Vienna art academy. His paintings showed a profound uninterest in people. They recommended him to become an architect like Albert Speer. Would have been quite a career, maybe.
I'm just amazed that Goebbels' answer, that lasted a full 40 seconds (between 1:32 and 2:12), was completely recalled by the translator *AFTER* Goebbels said his statement.

click bate, only hitler used his normal voice. all others were in public presentation mode. only der führer had the status to go all in private on his audience because he used all facets as the leader, the softest and the hardest, his style was truly part of him although orchestrated of course but the tone when he spoke calmly was the real tone because thats the way he debates on a daily basis with all his personel. The popullation by that were able to see and connect with hitler as if he was a family father.
Peaople should watch documentaries such as "Europa the last battle", "The greatest story never told", "In the name of zion" for a more truthful insight.
I had no idea Mussolini knew English! Fascinating stuff...it's also very easy to find clips of Albert Speer speaking in English (he made a fortune with his book after his internment, "Inside the Third Reich," and did several American talk shows promoting it.) I also believe Goring was fluent in English, but I haven't yet heard any clips of him speaking it.
Based on general impressions, its appears that Speer was the only one with a conscience or any sense of decency. Might have done good things in a different time.
Before becoming a politician and dictator, Mussolini was a journalist for the Avanguardia Socialista and correspondent from the United States of America, from where he wrote articles for that newspaper
@@francescoricci9386 Thanks for the info. I listened to Mussolini again, and I'm just fascinated by how well he speaks English. My grandfather came here on the boat when he was 18; his accent was so thick, it was impossible to understand his English. Mussolini sounds like a Harvard professor next to my grandfather!
It´s quite interesting to hear, that neither Hitler, nor Goebbels spoke a "clean" German. While Hitler could not deny his Austrian background, Goebbels had the typical dialect of the Rhineland, where his hometown Neuss is situated. Göring speaks clearly what is called "High German". Himmler has a "sourthern drawl", rolling the "R" quite noticeable. Speer spoke with no traceable accent. None of them spoke like Hollywood pictures them!
Thanks for that insight. I've read that Hitler would have sounded similarly to German ears as a West Country yokel would to British ears. I'm guessing that if movies portrayed the accents with their English/American equivalents (e.g. a southern drawl) they would lose the audience with it. There have been a couple of movies where they used (or just let ride) accents to approximate it. "The Death Of Stalin" kind of did that, although I don't think there was an attempt to make them reflect the original accent relationship. Stalin was from rural Geogia. I don't know (nor care, to be honest) about the rest of the gang. It seems dictators often come from the regions or even different countries. Hitler, Napoleon, Stalin. Musolini was a small town kid who also lived in Switzerland and Austria-Hungary. Saddam Hussein and Gaddafi were kind of outsiders. My theory breaks down with some of the military dictators though. I guess the insiders already have the power and wealth the outsiders want.
@@antoniochiodi4183 I'm not sure I agree with some of what you've said there. Yes, quite a few dictators have come from less privaleged backgrounds but, then again, some have not. Most paint their own version of their history. Also not all people from less privileged backgrounds go on to be mass murderers. Don't forget that politicians can be chameleons and often portray the image that benefits them most to the particular audience. Hitler would wear a suit or a uniform depending on the audience he was trying to win over. Musolini, like Putin, took his shirt off and did 'manly' things to project an image. The way to win over an audience is to make it appear you are one of them. You share their troubles. Even if you are actually a multimillionaire and have never had to ride a bus. Hitler was not quite as poor as he liked to make out. These guys write their own backstory. Once they've 'made it' they have whole teams of people managing their image. They are the stars of their own movies. Many dictators were far from efficient, depending on how you define efficiency. Most of their strategies were centered around their own survival so they often pitted potential rivals against each other or let different groups fight it out. Stalin destroyed the agricultural economy, purged his own military of experienced officers and his early interfering with the way the war was being fought led to disaster. Later he learned enough to let the generals do the thinking. His nemesis went in the other direction and started to micromanage with equally disasterous results. Generally speaking the Nazis were very inefficient. They ended up with three armies controlled by different war lords (the Army, the SS, and the Luftwaffe, which had it's own field army divisions). They poured energy into what could be called vanity weapons when they were already short of resources. For purely ideological reasons instead of using trains to ship military supplies they used them to convey people to their deaths. Hitler slept until noon and was reputed to hold the belief of the last person who spoke to him. He often set up competing power structures, not for efficiency, but for self survival. Lastly if people are inspired by sociopathic mass murderers then I think that is quite worrying and maybe they should look for other role models. I'm afraid 'strong men' are often 'wrong men' and the longer they are in power the more mental issues they accumulate. Power corrupts.This is why the US Constitution limited how many terms a president can have and why the countries that don't have that sort of provision often end up with oppressive governments.
As a german native, there is something really interesting to me about Goebbels: He talks in a rhineland dialect. It is imossible to ignore once i realized this. He sounds just like some beer drinking bloke from cologne xD
I will try to translate the Speer part: "Hitler and the collapse of his system brought an enormous suffering over the german people. The useless continuation of this war and the unnecessary destructions impede the reconstruction."
Thanks! As he survived the war, and the trials, there are actually a lot of recording of Speer, more than a few in fluent English. He did the rounds of interviews after release from his sentence. As the only high level Nazi still alive he was in pretty high demand.
@@fensoxx Its his autobiography one of the most important books about WW2 and a must read, one of the lines that jumped out at me is "if Adolph Hitler was capable of friendship I suppose he would have regarded me as his friend." Speer is a very interesting character he was the only top Nazi to plead guilty and accept them as a criminal orginisation at Nuremberg.

@Death thats not exactly true. There were some people who had something against hitler and did not want him to rule their country, but these people were mostly murdered or put in prison. If you had something against the Führer you are against the country and a Volksverhätzer (sorry i only know the german word).
I only ever heard Hitler's speech voice and regular voice when he was talking to the Finnish General. I never thought about how other top Nazi officials sounded like. Thank you for this Mark.
In front of "Kameraden" and at a time when victory still seemed an option. Otherwise, no idea why he agreed that this was recorded. Unless he didn't of course. In that case, someone clearly took quite a risk, especially since no German newspaper probably would have been interested in this paperazzi-story....
It was probably the kettle calling the pot black..saying the descendents of the declaration signers are a mix of other Europeans who did far worse to other natives world wide.
Trivia-Schirach was born in Berlin, the youngest of four children of theatre director, grand ducal chamberlain and retired captain of the cavalry Carl Baily Norris von Schirach (1873-1948) and his American wife Emma Middleton Lynah Tillou (1872-1944) three of his four grandparents were from the United States, chiefly from Pennsylvania. Through his mother, Schirach was a descendant of Thomas Heyward Jr. and an indirect descendant of Arthur Middleton, two signatories of the United States Declaration of Independence. Also in 1776, Middleton and William Henry Drayton designed the Great Seal of South Carolina. Arthur Middleton's sister, Susannah Middleton, was the great-great-grandmother of Baldur von Schirach, onetime leader of the Hitler Youth and later Governor ("Gauleiter" or "Reichsstatthalter") of the Reichsgau Vienna, who was convicted of "crimes against humanity" at the Nuremberg Trials, through Baldur Von Schirach's mother Emma Middleton Lynah Tillou (1872-1944). The United States Navy ship USS Arthur Middleton (AP-55/APA-25) was named for him. English was the first language he learned at home and he did not learn to speak German until the age of five. He had two sisters, Viktoria and the opera singer Rosalind von Schirach, and a brother, Karl Benedict von Schirach. His brother committed suicide in 1919 at the age of 19. In 31 March 1932 Schirach married the 19-year-old Henriette Hoffmann, the daughter of Heinrich Hoffmann, Adolf Hitler's personal photographer and sometime friend. Schirach's family was vehemently opposed to this marriage, but Hitler insisted.[2] Gregor Strasser dismissively described Schirach as "a young effeminate aristocrat" upon whom Hitler bestowed both Henriette and the Hitler Youth position. Through this relationship, Schirach became part of Hitler's inner circle. The young couple were welcome guests at Hitler's "Berghof". Wikipedia
@Brutal Attack I noticed before writing my original comment. The point is, that if what Goebbels said was not previously agreed upon, it is hard to translate it in as shot a time span as he did, as well as he did. This was before the time of highly professionalised translators, having been trained to translate while hearing, like we have them in the European parliament right now.

While Mussolini talks you can hear the Emilia-Romagna accent, the region he came from. Curious fact: when he spoke Italian you couldn't hear any accent, his Italian was perfect
HIs accent in general was very heavy when he spoke English. I also looked up one of his speeches in German, and his accent was much less pronounced. But in the case of his German, it could be the same as with Hitler. Hitler's Austrian accent was much more pronounced when he spoke normally, and the same could be the case with Mussolini and his Italian accent.
"Curious fact: when he spoke Italian you couldn't hear any accent, his Italian was perfect" Umm... Doesn't perfect Italian ALWAYS have an Italian accent?
@@GrislyAtoms12 In Italy the difference between someone from Northern Italy and Southern Italy is huge when it comes to language, accent and things like that. According to some there are cases when they barely understand each other the next region over.
As a native German speaker, its pretty odd listening to their dialects and speech patterns. Just by the way they talk I'm able to have a idea of what part of Germany they're from. Its sort of like how Americans can tell apart accents from the south, east coast, Michigan and northern and western accents.
@@jamie25288 Hitler speaks an Upper Austrian dialect, Göring High German, Himmler Upper Bavarian, Speer Palatine, Ribbentrop somewhat Rhenish, Schirach Saxon. Goebbels speaks Ripuarian, but not very strongly. Maybe I'm interpreting too much but I've read that he was not very attached to his home region. Perhaps he is trying to hide his dialect?
Göbbel's stare looks so ice cold and unsettling, almost condescending. In another galaxy far, far away, he'd definitely be the one to fire the death star..
Hitler was also secretly recorded by the Finns during a meeting with Finnish leader Mannerheim in 1944. Hitler speaks in a very every day tone of voice.
i've heard this recording and he sounds COKMPLETELY different than the Hitler saying "this movement that bears my name bla bla." Much more gruff and guttural in that Finnish recording, than he sounds on camera here. I daresay one or the other might have been his actual doppelganger to sound so very different. And Hitler had one double that we know of for certain, I'd say he must have had several of them.
There is the "Hitler and Mannerheim" recording, but also controversy about whether it is real or not. I'm guessing, even if fake, it would be in the ballpark of how he sounded in private. As you point out, even a quiet speech, is still a speech. Until all the drugs, monkey glands, and Parkinsons kicked in I'm sure he would not have talked in person like he did at a Nuremberg Rally. Although he might have ordered a grilled cheese sandwich that way if he was really hungry after a hard day's apocalypsing. But I think he spent half his time watching westerns and had the sleep patterns of a teenager (sorry guys 'n' gals), so a hard day was not really something he'd have recognized. Butt-kissing minions took care of that.
There’s ways to edit it like lowering the saturation would help but it’d be a pain to get it just right without already knowing how they sounded in person
@@GiggityGoo205, Well, you just need to know, how highly pitched and saturated the original recording methods edited your voice. But in the end, we don't know which audio recording they oroginally used for their individual Speeches. It must be even more interesting for Mussolini, since recording methods from the 20s to the 40s had a big advancement.

@@juststeve5542 More precisely, this bashing can incline them towards fascism precisely for that reason. I mean, look at it pragmatically, if you get hammered on for a historical burden you have no responsibility on regularly while growing up (WWII is seen *four* whole years in schools in Germany), basically its like getting the punishment for something you didn't do. Might as well do it. Not endorsing that line of thought, but I can see where these folks are coming from. Doesn't mean I don't thoroughly oppose when I'm faced with the occasional neo-nazi rhetoric or dangerously far-right line of thought. I am a very tolerant person. My tolerance ends when my interlocutor's not only doesn't exist, but actively aggresses me for not sharing his point of view. Which happens with any political movement really. Buuuuut most of these guys tend to be far-right. And that's saying something considering I have Monarchists/Pro-Kaiser types in my entourage as well as Marxists.
@@tywinlannister8015 very true. When I work out in Germany we do tend to avoid mentioning the war with the locals (as the old John Cleese sketch goes), except for my german friend Mike. He was born in East Germany, and we talk about tanks endlessly! All the other Germans in the group sit and look a bit awkward (or maybe they don't understand why the Englishman and the East German are getting excited about a mouse!), but the two of us just treat it as history and chat about it. Neither of us were to blame for anything that happened so we talk about tactics and armour and everything as outsiders to events.
German, especially in southern Germany, is actually a very soft spoken melodic language. It was only from WWII that the Allied propaganda demonized how German was spoken by turning it into a very harsh, guttural language.
I’m swiss and I absolutely adore the way german sounds, and I’m in love with it as a language in general. I advocate for it whenever I can, and many friends who had not properly hear it before have told me they never thought it could sound so soft and poetic. Yet it does.
Even the way Mussolini holds himself, arms crossed, looking down the bridge of his nose, he definitely has the "I'm better than you all are...you are beneath me" presence.
@@lucasgrey9794 That's mainly a problem of wide ignorance we still carry on today because of the USA propaganda against Mussolini and Fascism who picture him as a cruel dictator equal to Hitler and Nazism... The truth it's totally different.

No doubt Goebbels knew in advance what he would be asked, formulated his answers, and made sure the translator knew what he would say. Interviews like that are never spontaneous.
Mr. Felton, Could you do a video about Himmler's experience as a commander? As you know Hitler had assigned him to a commanding position in the West for a brief period. However, Himmler apparently lacked any skills to be an effective commander. It would be very interesting to hear from you about Himmler's short experience as a commander.

For those who are interested in what Speer says, 6:35: "Hitler, and the collapse of his system, brought a monstrous time of suffering to the german volk. The useless continuation of this war, and the unnecessary devastations, complicate the reconstruction." Sorry if there are grammatical errors, my english is not the yellow of the egg.
Those aren't their "normal" voices. I can tell because I live in Germany and talk german fluently. This is what the German language sounds like when you carefully pronounce each word in a very specific manner. I am 100% certain that they knew that they were being recorded and thus reverted to this over-emphasized mode of speech. It takes quite an effort to "talk like this" even for native speakers, which is why you can hear them interject with long and unnatural sonding pauses. I've never heard anyone talk like this in the years that I lived here (in Germany).
That translator that translated that long monologue given by Gobbels was pretty talented! That was a lot of words to remember and give back in English. Great Classic Mark Felton video. I’m so impressed by the incredible amount of research and time you have put into these projects. Thank you!

Goering was interesting at Nuremberg. The reports I read suggested he ran rings around the prosecutors during the trial. People were genuinely surprised at how eloquent he was.
In fairness, the American prosecutor Robert Jackson was a Supreme Court Justice before taking the job and fucked up the cross-examination; in America judges do not cross-examine or question witnesses and Jackson probably hadn't done it since he was a small town lawyer in podunk New York. Once Sir Maxwell-Fyfe, the lead British prosecutor and an experienced prosecutor, took over the questioning Goering was toast.

click bate, only hitler used his normal voice. all others were in public presentation mode. only der führer had the status to go all in private on his audience because he used all facets as the leader, the softest and the hardest, his style was truly part of him although orchestrated of course but the tone when he spoke calmly was the real tone because thats the way he debates on a daily basis with all his personel. The popullation by that were able to see and connect with hitler as if he was a family father.

It´s quite interesting to hear, that neither Hitler, nor Goebbels spoke a "clean" German. While Hitler could not deny his Austrian background, Goebbels had the typical dialect of the Rhineland, where his hometown Neuss is situated. Göring speaks clearly what is called "High German". Himmler has a "sourthern drawl", rolling the "R" quite noticeable. Speer spoke with no traceable accent. None of them spoke like Hollywood pictures them!
Thanks for that insight. I've read that Hitler would have sounded similarly to German ears as a West Country yokel would to British ears. I'm guessing that if movies portrayed the accents with their English/American equivalents (e.g. a southern drawl) they would lose the audience with it. There have been a couple of movies where they used (or just let ride) accents to approximate it.
"The Death Of Stalin" kind of did that, although I don't think there was an attempt to make them reflect the original accent relationship. Stalin was from rural Geogia. I don't know (nor care, to be honest) about the rest of the gang.
It seems dictators often come from the regions or even different countries.
Hitler, Napoleon, Stalin. Musolini was a small town kid who also lived in Switzerland and Austria-Hungary. Saddam Hussein and Gaddafi were kind of outsiders. My theory breaks down with some of the military dictators though.
I guess the insiders already have the power and wealth the outsiders want.
Some have speculated this HItler's gas attack might have damaged his vocal cords. That and his Austrian accent might account for it.
@@grumblesa10 Usually when I have a gas attack it's other people that talk differently, as they leave the room. :)
I think Göbbels' accent was captured pretty accurately in Inglorious Basterds
@@antoniochiodi4183 I'm not sure I agree with some of what you've said there. Yes, quite a few dictators have come from less privaleged
backgrounds but, then again, some have not. Most paint their own version of their history. Also not all people from less privileged backgrounds go on to be mass murderers.
Don't forget that politicians can be chameleons and often portray the image that benefits them most to the particular audience. Hitler would wear a suit or a uniform depending on the audience he was trying to win over. Musolini, like Putin, took his shirt off and did 'manly' things to project an image. The way to win over an audience is to make it appear you are one of them. You share their troubles. Even if you are actually a multimillionaire and have never had to ride a bus. Hitler was not quite as poor as he liked to make out. These guys write their own backstory.
Once they've 'made it' they have whole teams of people managing their image. They are the stars of their own movies.
Many dictators were far from efficient, depending on how you define efficiency. Most of their strategies were centered around their own survival so they often pitted potential rivals against each other or let different groups fight it out. Stalin destroyed the agricultural economy, purged his own military of experienced officers and his early interfering with the way the war was being fought led to disaster. Later he learned
enough to let the generals do the thinking. His nemesis went in the other direction and started to micromanage with equally disasterous results. Generally speaking the Nazis were very inefficient. They ended up with three armies controlled by different war lords (the Army, the SS, and the Luftwaffe, which had it's own field army divisions). They poured energy into what could be called vanity weapons when they were already short of resources. For purely ideological reasons instead of using trains to ship military supplies they used them to convey people to their deaths.
Hitler slept until noon and was reputed to hold the belief of the last person who spoke to him. He often set up competing power structures, not for efficiency, but for self survival.
Lastly if people are inspired by sociopathic mass murderers then I think that is quite worrying and maybe they should look for other role models.
I'm afraid 'strong men' are often 'wrong men' and the longer they are in power the more mental issues they accumulate. Power corrupts.This is why the US Constitution limited how many terms a president can have and why the countries that don't have that sort of provision often end up with oppressive governments.
Thank you! As a german who never heard the speaking voices till now it extremely interesting!

As he survived the war, and the trials, there are actually a lot of recording of Speer, more than a few in fluent English. He did the rounds of interviews after release from his sentence. As the only high level Nazi still alive he was in pretty high demand.
What is it about?
@@fensoxx Its his autobiography one of the most important books about WW2 and a must read, one of the lines that jumped out at me is "if Adolph Hitler was capable of friendship I suppose he would have regarded me as his friend."

The Hitler youth leader was half American and a descendant of the signers of the US declaration of independence? !? The stuff you dig up... amazing

It was probably the kettle calling the pot black..saying the descendents of the declaration signers are a mix of other Europeans who did far worse to other natives world wide.
Trivia-Schirach was born in Berlin, the youngest of four children of theatre director, grand ducal chamberlain and retired captain of the cavalry Carl Baily Norris von Schirach (1873-1948) and his American wife Emma Middleton Lynah Tillou (1872-1944)
three of his four grandparents were from the United States, chiefly from Pennsylvania. Through his mother, Schirach was a descendant of Thomas Heyward Jr. and an indirect descendant of Arthur Middleton, two signatories of the United States Declaration of Independence.
Also in 1776, Middleton and William Henry Drayton designed the Great Seal of South Carolina. Arthur Middleton's sister, Susannah Middleton, was the great-great-grandmother of Baldur von Schirach, onetime leader of the Hitler Youth and later Governor ("Gauleiter" or "Reichsstatthalter") of the Reichsgau Vienna, who was convicted of "crimes against humanity" at the Nuremberg Trials, through Baldur Von Schirach's mother Emma Middleton Lynah Tillou (1872-1944).
The United States Navy ship USS Arthur Middleton (AP-55/APA-25) was named for him.
English was the first language he learned at home and he did not learn to speak German until the age of five. He had two sisters, Viktoria and the opera singer Rosalind von Schirach, and a brother, Karl Benedict von Schirach. His brother committed suicide in 1919 at the age of 19.
In 31 March 1932 Schirach married the 19-year-old Henriette Hoffmann, the daughter of Heinrich Hoffmann, Adolf Hitler's personal photographer and sometime friend. Schirach's family was vehemently opposed to this marriage, but Hitler insisted.[2] Gregor Strasser dismissively described Schirach as "a young effeminate aristocrat" upon whom Hitler bestowed both Henriette and the Hitler Youth position. Through this relationship, Schirach became part of Hitler's inner circle. The young couple were welcome guests at Hitler's "Berghof".

@Brutal Attack Why would he?
@Brutal Attack I noticed before writing my original comment. The point is, that if what Goebbels said was not previously agreed upon, it is hard to translate it in as shot a time span as he did, as well as he did.
This was before the time of highly professionalised translators, having been trained to translate while hearing, like we have them in the European parliament right now.
He wrote down what he said (in German) and translated it that way

HIs accent in general was very heavy when he spoke English. I also looked up one of his speeches in German, and his accent was much less pronounced. But in the case of his German, it could be the same as with Hitler. Hitler's Austrian accent was much more pronounced when he spoke normally, and the same could be the case with Mussolini and his Italian accent.

Its sort of like how Americans can tell apart accents from the south, east coast, Michigan and northern and western accents.

Hitler was also secretly recorded by the Finns during a meeting with Finnish leader Mannerheim in 1944. Hitler speaks in a very every day tone of voice.
Not 1944 but in June 1942
that was in his original video
i've heard this recording and he sounds COKMPLETELY different than the Hitler saying "this movement that bears my name bla bla." Much more gruff and guttural in that Finnish recording, than he sounds on camera here. I daresay one or the other might have been his actual doppelganger to sound so very different. And Hitler had one double that we know of for certain, I'd say he must have had several of them.
@@robertmaybeth3434 His private tone could be different because he's using his natural Austrian accent.
@@danmorgan3685 he had a Bavarian, not Austrian accent tho...
Well, Hitler is still public speaking.
Let’s hear his ordering a grilled cheese sandwich voice.
There is the "Hitler and Mannerheim" recording, but also controversy about whether it is real or not. I'm guessing, even if fake, it would be in the ballpark of how he sounded in private. As you point out, even a quiet speech, is still a speech. Until all the drugs, monkey glands, and Parkinsons kicked in I'm sure he would not have talked in person like he did at a Nuremberg Rally.
Although he might have ordered a grilled cheese sandwich that way if he was really hungry after a hard day's apocalypsing. But I think he spent half his time watching westerns and had the sleep patterns of a teenager (sorry guys 'n' gals), so a hard day was not really something he'd have recognized.

I’m swiss and I absolutely adore the way german sounds, and I’m in love with it as a language in general. I advocate for it whenever I can, and many friends who had not properly hear it before have told me they never thought it could sound so soft and poetic. Yet it does.
German has been growing on me recently, the more I listen to it the more I like it
In south germany 5hey doesnt speak deutsch they speak kauderwelsch

Even the way Mussolini holds himself, arms crossed, looking down the bridge of his nose, he definitely has the "I'm better than you all are...you are beneath me" presence.
Apparently he was the total opposite in private company. Everyone who interacted with him liked him.
@@lucasgrey9794 That's mainly a problem of wide ignorance we still carry on today because of the USA propaganda against Mussolini and Fascism who picture him as a cruel dictator equal to Hitler and Nazism... The truth it's totally different.
@Zia Liefde I'm referring to the personality. Their personalities were very pleasant.
@@lucasgrey9794 I've seen some press conference of an argentinian dictator (Rafael Videla) and gosh, what an educated, calm, and well spoken person, even he was malignant and implacable.
Same we could say of Castro or Guevara. All of them, cruel dictators, cold killers, but with an aura of ''goodness'' that it's actually the terrific part.
They all sound ''human''...
@@MoonBlythe Hitler loved children and dogs, but he killed them or sent them to attack tanks, the children not the dogs.
I’m extremely impressed of this translator’s memory 2:10
Lol he has notes dude.... If you look closley you can see him read sometimes.
No doubt Goebbels knew in advance what he would be asked, formulated his answers, and made sure the translator knew what he would say. Interviews like that are never spontaneous.
@@gregb6469 Sounds like Biden.
Indeed
I noticed the word Juden - Jew used by Goebbels but the translator didn't seem to want to add that.
At the 4:25 mark, the scrolling side-by-side translation of Heinrich Himmler's speech was a nice touch. I wish all those featured here had this.
Mr. Felton,
Could you do a video about Himmler's experience as a commander? As you know Hitler had assigned him to a commanding position in the West for a brief period. However, Himmler apparently lacked any skills to be an effective commander. It would be very interesting to hear from you about Himmler's short experience as a commander.
Freundschaft Seconded!
@Marq LOECSTA lol
In the East*
DINODAD789 He was appointed for the OB West Rhine
Himmler effectively shortened the war by months, due to his terrible skills as a battlefield commander.
Hearing Mussolini say "Make America Great" is gold lol
Of course, the Nazi's were the first to institute the concept of a 'living wage', but we won't hear any of that now will we.
they're related.
@@crispybacon7937 no we won’t because people to this day still don’t think nazis were socialist
@@david-468 Even though they actually and literally described themselves as socialists in this video. Yeah, sometimes you just have to shotgun facts into people's faces for them to get it.
@@crispybacon7937 Calling themselves socialist was just a propaganda move by the party since socialism was fairly popular in europe during the early 20th century, please don't fall for nazi propaganda.
For those who are interested in what Speer says, 6:35: "Hitler, and the collapse of his system, brought a monstrous time of suffering to the german volk. The useless continuation of this war, and the unnecessary devastations, complicate the reconstruction." Sorry if there are grammatical errors, my english is not the yellow of the egg.
Thank you for the translation. Your English is good--far better than my German!
I second bcarr1122 and thank you for the phrase "my english is not the yellow of the egg". That's great. I'll be using that. :)
Is "the yellow of the egg" a phrase common in german? I've never heard it before, it sounds cool
Excellent video. Very well documented.
Those aren't their "normal" voices. I can tell because I live in Germany and talk german fluently.
This is what the German language sounds like when you carefully pronounce each word in a very specific manner. I am 100% certain that they knew that they were being recorded and thus reverted to this over-emphasized mode of speech. It takes quite an effort to "talk like this" even for native speakers, which is why you can hear them interject with long and unnatural sonding pauses.
I've never heard anyone talk like this in the years that I lived here (in Germany).
You are right
Yeah and no one today talks like how the english speakers from 1930s used to talk.
It's the same when you hear a british or american from the 30's speak on a recording, it's TV-speech/radio-speech, not how people talk in private.
Richtig
They did talk like this back then though, you cannot really compare modern German to 1940.
No pun intended but your voice is awesome, it is a perfect sounding voice for historical documentary narrations
That's true
💯

I believe Mark has some of the most informative and enjoyable mini documentaries about strange/interesting war stories and concepts.
Absolutely fascinating! I've never seen this footage of Hitler addressing the LSSAH so casually. History is such an interesting thing
What fascinates me is the backdrop or lack there of. Is this some early Nazi blue screen technology.

That translator that translated that long monologue given by Gobbels was pretty talented! That was a lot of words to remember and give back in English. Great Classic Mark Felton video. I’m so impressed by the incredible amount of research and time you have put into these projects. Thank you!
Gobbels was looking at em like I don't trust you one bit are you even saying what I said or going off the rails with your own statement lol as Head of Propaganda must have been weird for him to depend on someone else to get his point across lol
The translators back then had their own skill at shorthand too.. they take down what they hear simultaneously and then interpret it.. it's still used in today's interpretation
Pretty sure it is scripted.
I bet he was to memorize for his dear life
It was scripted. You can clearly see and hear that he's reading.
Hitler sounded so calm, if you didn't know who it was, you'd assume he was a normal dude in a commercial.

Goering was interesting at Nuremberg. The reports I read suggested he ran rings around the prosecutors during the trial. People were genuinely surprised at how eloquent he was.
In fairness, the American prosecutor Robert Jackson was a Supreme Court Justice before taking the job and fucked up the cross-examination; in America judges do not cross-examine or question witnesses and Jackson probably hadn't done it since he was a small town lawyer in podunk New York. Once Sir Maxwell-Fyfe, the lead British prosecutor and an experienced prosecutor, took over the questioning Goering was toast.

I was kinda expecting Mussolini speaking English to sound more like "It's a me, Mario!"
Mario actually has a Swedish accent

@Junkrat Something tells me you have no idea what you just said. Plenty of Americans can speak languages other than English. Also no one thinks American is a language in itself, it is an English dialect.

The translation at 4:43 is wrong. The correct version should be: "It should be discussed amongst us, and yet, nevertheless, we will -never- speak about it in public."
Don't know who translated this text but I just can't believe someone could do such severe error in a historically important speech like this.
The scary thing is that they were all *highly* intelligent men. Those captured by the allies had their IQs tested...they all tested well above average...Goering wasn't far off genius level...
