Hess was basically kept incommunicado with only family members allowed to see him. No reporters and no historians. Hess would have been a treasure trove for historians as an eyewitness to events. There were many attempts to release Hess in later years, but that required all four Allied powers to agree. Typically the Soviets would routinely object, but according to rumor, one time they didn't. The story was that the British then stepped up to object to his release.
They released Albert Speer, who became something of a celebrity, in the West. He was regularly on TV, including an hour on the Donohue Show. His book "Inside the Third Reich" was a best seller. Indeed, I've got a copy of that book with Speer"s autograph. But, in spite of this, Speer used slave labor in his factories.
Actually, Hess would not have been remotely useful to historians. Pretty much everything he witnessed was described in great detail by other Nazis after the war.
www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/about/news/files-released-foreign-and-commonwealth-office-and-cabinet-office/ They have... Other than that it's pretty normal to not release informations like that for decades. No need for any conspiracy theories
@@dabsafe I don't think sympathy is being expressed for Hess, rather, other Nazi's should have paid a higher price. Von Braun is one I can think of - he should have got the hangman's noose, not a cushy job in the States. Speer got away lightly too - he was minister for armaments and made extensive use of forced labour to keep Germany in the war. He had the blood of tens of thousands of workers on his hands but only served 20 years in prison (and that's only because the Russians refused requests from the allies let him out early!).
@@octowuss1888 you don’t need to explain to morons who make these inane comments he’s just another uneducated troll. ( though all you have said is true)
He couldn’t even tie his own shoe laces or lift his arms higher than his shoulders. He was murdered to avoid embarrassing British royalty who had conspired for a cease fire with Germany, - hence Hess’ flight to Britain, where he was to meet and negotiate with them in a remote country estate. When Britain survived the battle of Britain, they backpedaled on the offer and arrested Hess, explaining his covert night time flight as “crazy”. After the wall fell and German reunification was imminent, he was liquidated in order to keep him from possibly being freed by a more sovereign Germany and telling all.
Agree with you on that, there are still documents from the debriefing of Hess in 1941 that keep having their top secret status renewed (the latest dates i've heard are 2035 or 2043 iirc) until after everyone from WW2 is dead (such as the queen), so the question has to be what could be so damaging to warrant that level of secrecy and to maintain it would you murder a witness, my personal belief is the story and events around Hess's flight to Scotland is far more intricate than the history we're led to believe.
*@teutonalex* ☘️ That's an interesting theory. I recall when he died, i was barely a teen, but thinking it strange that a man would spend THAT long in prison and THEN commit suicide. Also odd, that there was *so little said about him* even at school he didn't get a mention for such a *senior Nazi* . As 'crazy' was the only reason hinted at, most settled for it. Can you tell me if there's any *evidence that he had been in regular contact with any Scot/Brit aristocracy* ? And is there any evidence that he was *expected* to arrive when he did? Any info would be appreciated - i always love learning something new! 😉
My grandmother was the cook at Maindiff Court hospital in Abergavenny, and was responsible for preparing Hess' meals while he was held there during his psychological assessment.
He is the most stoic man I’ve ever seen. He almost never smiled, or talked. He seems like he was a really strange person. Too bad. I watched a documentary about him, and even his death is about as strange as himself.
"I had the privilege of working for many years of my life under the greatest son my nation has brought forth in its thousand year history. Even if I could, I would not wish to expunge this time from my life. I am happy to know that I have done my duty as a German, as a National Socialist, as a loyal follower of my Fuhrer. I regret nothing. If I were to begin all over again I would just as I have acted, even if I knew that in the end I should meet a fiery death at the stake. No matter what people may do, one day I shall stand before the judgement seat of God eternal. I will answer to Him, and I know that he will absolve me." - Rudolf Hess, prior sentencing Heart wrenching when you actually know the truth about WW2.
@George Thomas Likewise man. Wish more people would take the time to study in depth before they take things at face value, especially the deadliest and most controversial of things that establish where we are today. If my forefathers knew what they were fighting for they would have turned their arms on the banks and politicians instead of the Germans who desperately tried to warn the world of what was coming.
@George Thomas The real pearl would be informing someone with wealth power and even fame to come to an awakening of the objective truth. If they haven't completely sold their soul to the world we're living in.
Yeah, those 93 years youngsters die mysteriously…some wreck their Harleys up in bike weeks, others break their necks skateboarding… Hess died in prison….
@@Phuqarf A lot of Nazis committed suicide in prison or before they were apprehended. Hess waited some 40 odd years. What’s the mystery? Maybe he got tired of waiting for death to come and saw to accelerate the end.
@@ΝίκοςΜπέτσης-ΗΠΑ correct. He was said to be very frail though and would have struggled to hang himself. I’m not saying there was foul play, but that’s the reason some regard it as mysterious…
There is credible evidence that Hess was indeed murdered. The four occupying powers of Berlin had to unanimously agree to the release of any prisoner in Spandau prison. When it came to Hess, the three Allied powers voted in favor of release but the Soviet Union always voted no. The reality is that the Allies did not want Hess released but as long as the Soviets remained irresolute concerning Hess' release, it was safe for the Allies to vote yes and look like the good guys. But when Gorbachev came to power in the USSR, he was prepared to change the Soviet vote in favor of a release on humanitarian grounds. That put the Allies in a difficult position. If they suddenly voted no, it would raise a lot of suspicion. That was when it was decided to allegedly murder Hess.
It was the Cold War.the prison and guarding Hess gave Russia an excuse to be in the British sector in West Berlin.the kgb didn't want to lose that.. And of course the allies didn't want them there spying or trying to.
@@mikeamico6763 Be that as it may, when the USSR hinted that it would change its vote and vote to release Hess, that would have made the vote unanimous in favor of Rudy. But because he knew information that would have compromised Britain's role in WWII - information he was not allowed to share with anyone while he was in Spandau because he was forbidden to talk about the past - the Allies were concerned that once Hess was released, there would be nothing to prevent him from spilling his guts. According to one source that was present in Spandau when Hess died, the wire Hess allegedly used to hang himself was the first item to be destroyed by order of the British High Command in Berlin and the shed where Hess died was immediately destroyed. Also, the coroner who performed the autopsy stated that bruises around Hess' neck area were inconsistent with a hanging and in fact suggested that that he had been strangled. This is irrefutable evidence that Rudolf Hess was murdered.
My partner's father was in the army, and for a time he guarded Rudolf Hess at Spandau. He said that the treatment of Hess was absolutely gruelling - he was watched by a rotating guard of English, American, Russian, and French military, none of whom were allowed to look at him or directly acknowledge him. Some units were crueller than others, and apparently his meals were regularly dumped upside down on the floor, or not provided at all. Despite being constantly observed, he had basically no human contact at all. Proper living Damnatio Memoriae stuff.
@Kira No I realise, I meant more in the sense of day to day human contact. Someone getting to visit for half an hour or whatever is one thing, but living the vast majority of your life as a spectre is another. I also am not sure the timeframe for when my father in law guarded Hess - he mentioned the whole thing very casually at a family wedding so I’ve never had the opportunity to quiz him!
You don't have "Mein Kampf" without Hess, you don't have a mass party with ideas add to actions, without Hess. He wasn't able to play the game of power in the nazi Camelot, he was not that kind of man. But he was much more than a Hitler fanboy. The way he was treated in Spandau was just a small portion of all the pain that he helped to create.
@@bethwatt674 The fact that Hess, Dönitz and Speer could survived the Nüremberg trials, shows how smart were those guys. NSDAP was full of bright people, same as the Schultzstaffel, SS. And obviusly, Wehrmacht Oberkommandos were formed by some of the most brilliant military men of the 20th century. You can say the same with the nazi science, their work fed the American space program. ¿And what about politics? Well, there's no politics and politicians in the way that we know it, without Gauleiter Dr. Göebbles. He invected all the stuff, the big rallys, the mass propaganda, radio, tv, cinema, fake news factory inside the party and the government, he became Hitler in a movie star. Göebbles was Twitter and Facebook sixty years before internet. Today, we have one of the smartest presidents in the world, with a vast culture, invading and killing his neighbours. And he acts and uses the same tricks than nazis used. When you mix talent and evil, the world begins to trumble.
He did not disavow the Neurenberg race laws on Jews. He did not resign because of the race laws. He was fully aware of everything what was set in motion. The deathcamps were known and operational in the late 30s in Germany, and in the early 40s in Poland and other nations. Together with Heydrich and Himmler, Hess visited an exhibition for 'Generalplan Ost' on 20 march of 1941 about the plans of exterminating the people in the by German occupied eastern territories. Hess knew it all.
@@michaelg8193 You know, Germany had a representative in Moscow in 1941. They knew everything. Stalin's gift to the Nazis was to turn over some 600 German Communists, most of them Jews, to the Gestapo.
@@michaelg8193 They were not death camps in the late 30s, they were in essence to re-educate people seen as problematic to the Reich. The final solution came about after the invasion of the USSR.
@@distantthunder12ck55 In Buchenwald they started killings in end of 30s though not officially a deathcamp indeed. Sachsenhausen became the SS education camp to learn about guarding deathcamps in 1938. The final solution was 'only' a part within the larger 'Generalplan Ost' (1941). The extermination of people in Eastern Europe was projected to be about not less than 100 million people to be exterminated. The Holocaust was just a 'practise' for the larger catastrophy the Germans wanted to achieve. The deathcamps like Sobibor, Dachau and Birkenau were indeed later in the war.
If he had been just a tiny bit less fanatic and/or just smart enough to pretend regret like the rest of them, he wouldve been released like the rest. After all, far too many didnt get any punishment, and many with as much or more to their name got off with a few years. But they were all clever enough to at least publicly pretend to have repented and put nazism behind them. Hess was a devout Nazi to the end with no remorse, no repentence, no change at all. Thats why he was never released. And the longer he sat there, the harder it became for the allies to just release him. That said, he also clearly had severe mental problems, and imo he shouldve been placed in a secure mental institution for the rest of his life rather than a prison.
I still think the peace mission was with knowledge from Hitler and involved the royal British family. Idea being staging a coup by the younger brother of the king and ex king disposing of Churchill and signing peace with Germany. Churchill found out and prevented it. The younger brother was then disposed of in an airplane crash in 1942 (on his way to a secret meeting with the Germans?) and Hess was silenced for the rest of his life. When he was about to be released he was killed in British custody thereby silencing him.
@@Phuqarf I sent a brief-ish response. If it didn't go through, and you just want some sources just watch David Coles documentary, the greatest story never told, and hellstorm. Then research everything you learn from there.

@@lindaarrington9397 Yes all 4 allied powers - French, British, Americans and Russians - took turns guarding him, even though the prison was in West Berlin. However British, American and French soldiers who guarded him were from troops stationed in West Berlin rather than West Germany proper.
Smuts Barracks. I got posted there on the Chieftain Tanks crews in February 88, 6 months after Hess hung himself. According to friends based there at the time they brought his body onto the Tank Park in an Ambulance. My pal Paul got see him in the back which I thought was quite a Cool story given Hess's controversial life and strong involvement in the Nazi party, second only to seeing Hitler after his death. The accommodation at Smuts Barracks was 7 stories high and if you went to the top floor you could apparently see Hess in his excercise yard. They started to knock the prison down just before I got there and it was rubble. However Smuts Barracks is still there and used as a migrant camp.

The son of Hess was shortly before his father was killed informed by phone by the Sowjet Embassy that they were ready to release him. You better inform with the film- the murder of Rudolf Hess- which I watched on the Dutch TV after his death. There you find more details than in your film.

West Germany paid the cost of Spandau prison and also the cost of all allied troops stationing in West Germany. This was mentioned in a documentary on the British forces stationed in Germany, the cost was picked up by Germany.
I think he was killed to save money for the tax payer and to take away a Soviet access to the west I don't see the reasoning to do it at that age after so long in confinement
2 of my mates that was in the Royal Hampshire Regiment guarded Hess in Spandau in the 80's. they was told that if you spoke with Hess, you would be court marshaled.
@@sakabula1285 I think it is ' The Murder of Rudolf Hess' By Hugh Thomas. Its a convincing book until I read, in January 2019 DNA shows that prisoner number 7 was Hess. Who knows politicians, doctors, scientists lie all the time - just look at Covid.
I guarded Hess as part of the allied contract and Hess tried to hang himself in the garden shed, something he was known for so much that we were warned to report him anytime he went into the shed. When he died I automatically thought he had finally succeeded
@Robin Leijon I can honestly tell you.....there was no black soldier with him .....and that is the god's honest truth!........And there was no black soldier on duty during this time!....Except for the Sgt of the relief and he wasn't inside the compound!!!
I was stationed in Berlin, with the British Army. My room overlooked Spandau prison. One RUMOR was the allies didn’t want him to die during the Soviets prison watch. It was perceived that the Soviets would use the death for increased SOXMIS missions in to W. Berlin. Spandau prison overlooked our tank park, and I’m sure they had some interest in our Chieftains (at the time the only 120mm NATO gun tank).
He stuck up for his country, but he didn't like the cost The European brother war, and lives were being lost He saw the grieving mothers whose sons could not be found He wanted peace to stop the endless coffins on the ground
i think the fact that Hess flew over and tried to negotiate a peace deal could of been taken into account, he missed most of the war, so many German hierarchy down to lower ranks were involved in attrocities and never held to account. Hess obviously was mentally ill, call it 'conflicted' and probably ran various debates through his mind endlessly contributing to suicidal thoughts. On the other hand the Germans were building concentration camps back in 1933 and probably planning on revenge since the end of WW1. I'd like to know what Hess talked about or wanted to discuss or how he proposed to diffuse the situation back in 1941, when you consider that some nazi's were intensifying the holocaust and the death really late in the war, a senior nazi making a plunge for peace in 1941, i don't know, seems he was treated a bit harsh maybe? i'd like to know more about Hess, he may of even got out of his plane and expecting to take the surrender of Britain, it could of been blind ambition who knows?

As a neutral leader Eamon de Valera secretly admired Hitler, rod a fine line between Nazi Germany and Britain, not helped by a pro-Nazi envoy in Berlin and his controversial condolences on Hitler’s death.A phantom hangs over Ireland’s relations with Hitler’s Germany. Since Eamon de Valera’s visit to the Third Reich’s minister to Ireland on 2 May 1945, the spectre of pro-Nazism has dogged Ireland’s reputation. De Valera’s condolences on the suicide of the German head of state, Adolf Hitler, spawned immediate international condemnation. He gifted his critics all the ammunition that they desired to stigmatise Ireland.
I read a very interesting book once which claimed, with some degree of hard fact and forensic evidence that the man who flew to Britain was not Rudolf Hess.
He shouldn't have been sentenced at all. He was imprisoned while attempting to make a peace deal with the British prior to any of the "extermination camps" and other falsehoods proposed at the trials
Great video and maybe you could mention Hitler's "boomerang" "action against Occult Doctrines and So-Called Occult Sciences, known as the Hess Action where hundreds of occultists, astrologers, alchemists, healers and sim...were arrested"
Wow..he was 93, in poor health, no longer had any information as the events were 40-plus years prior, and had a long history of psychological issues before his life sentence...how was his death suspicious due to “lamp cord not messed up enough”? And I can easily see someone with arthritis (which causes pain and stiffness) not wanting to tie his shows daily due to discomfort, but be able to use them if for important things.
Hess was not allowed to talk about certain topics (like ww2). When he met his family in the prison there was a strict line that what was allowed to be spoken.
We will never know the 100% truth. Usually that would result in some sort of a demand for answers. But considering we’re talking about a high ranking Nazì, I don’t believe there is/will ever be the political will or public desire to seek ‘justice’ for his death (if he was killed). To be blunt, he was a Nazì and most people only care that he’s dead.
As soon as Hess died, the whole prison was bulldozed, and the rubble was taken away to stop pieces being taken by anyone. The site was then developed as a shopping centre, a quiz show asked people to give the centre a name, the one they didn't pick was "Hessco".
Im not an historian nor an expert on assassination squads. But to strangle a 93 year old man with an electrical cord seems a bit personal to me. I have my guess on who done it. Well done.
I guarded Hess in the 70’s at Spandau located in the Spandau district of Berlin. The only reason the Russians kept him there was because it gave them a reason and a foothold in side West Berlin. Hess’s mind wasn’t right in the end . He hated the Russians as they miss treated him when it was there turn to guard him . Maybe it was the last straw when his release was rejected . We will never know . I do know he was a bit of a prankster. It was said he used to beg for cigarettes off the duty guards but would then report them . My claim to fame is that I said hello to him . I believe he was a very clever man that read a lot , he would often go to the BMH in Berlin, the British Military Hospital is where my wife worked . Good memories indeed .
Because this channel is followed by people from many countries, and in most countries in Europe the Swastika is a banned symbol. Basically, the video could be taken down.
But he was nearly dead of old age, why the need to kill him for financial reasons? Or was it because “they” couldn’t risk him saying what he came to Scotland 🏴 to say all those years ago? He came with something to say, something that would irrevocably change our future forever.
@@florinivan6907 That’s a very good point. And one might ask why a man almost ready to pop his clogs at 93 would feel the need to kill himself. But then again, dementia can make people do odd things.
Was Hess's marriage laws regarding Jews any different to Israel's marriage laws regarding non-Jews? I mean it seems to me the standards are "it's ok when we do it" when it comes to Jewish people.

If my forefathers knew what they were fighting for they would have turned their arms on the banks and politicians instead of the Germans who desperately tried to warn the world of what was coming.
@George Thomas The real pearl would be informing someone with wealth power and even fame to come to an awakening of the objective truth. If they haven't completely sold their soul to the world we're living in.
@@theodorechill genuine question: what were they trying to warns us of?
Yeah, those 93 years youngsters die mysteriously…some wreck their Harleys up in bike weeks, others break their necks skateboarding… Hess died in prison….
...and it was not the midwife's fault. Definitely.
He hanged himself. That’s why it’s suspicious.
@@Phuqarf
A lot of Nazis committed suicide in prison or before they were apprehended. Hess waited some 40 odd years. What’s the mystery? Maybe he got tired of waiting for death to come and saw to accelerate the end.
@@ΝίκοςΜπέτσης-ΗΠΑ correct. He was said to be very frail though and would have struggled to hang himself. I’m not saying there was foul play, but that’s the reason some regard it as mysterious…
There is credible evidence that Hess was indeed murdered. The four occupying powers of Berlin had to unanimously agree to the release of any prisoner in Spandau prison. When it came to Hess, the three Allied powers voted in favor of release but the Soviet Union always voted no. The reality is that the Allies did not want Hess released but as long as the Soviets remained irresolute concerning Hess' release, it was safe for the Allies to vote yes and look like the good guys. But when Gorbachev came to power in the USSR, he was prepared to change the Soviet vote in favor of a release on humanitarian grounds. That put the Allies in a difficult position. If they suddenly voted no, it would raise a lot of suspicion. That was when it was decided to allegedly murder Hess.
It was the Cold War.the prison and guarding Hess gave Russia an excuse to be in the British sector in West Berlin.the kgb didn't want to lose that.. And of course the allies didn't want them there spying or trying to.
@@mikeamico6763 Be that as it may, when the USSR hinted that it would change its vote and vote to release Hess, that would have made the vote unanimous in favor of Rudy. But because he knew information that would have compromised Britain's role in WWII - information he was not allowed to share with anyone while he was in Spandau because he was forbidden to talk about the past - the Allies were concerned that once Hess was released, there would be nothing to prevent him from spilling his guts.
According to one source that was present in Spandau when Hess died, the wire Hess allegedly used to hang himself was the first item to be destroyed by order of the British High Command in Berlin and the shed where Hess died was immediately destroyed. Also, the coroner who performed the autopsy stated that bruises around Hess' neck area were inconsistent with a hanging and in fact suggested that that he had been strangled. This is irrefutable evidence that Rudolf Hess was murdered.
@Robin Leijon The theory that Hess killed himself has been refuted.
Very logical reasoning
My partner's father was in the army, and for a time he guarded Rudolf Hess at Spandau. He said that the treatment of Hess was absolutely gruelling - he was watched by a rotating guard of English, American, Russian, and French military, none of whom were allowed to look at him or directly acknowledge him. Some units were crueller than others, and apparently his meals were regularly dumped upside down on the floor, or not provided at all. Despite being constantly observed, he had basically no human contact at all. Proper living Damnatio Memoriae stuff.
@Kira No I realise, I meant more in the sense of day to day human contact. Someone getting to visit for half an hour or whatever is one thing, but living the vast majority of your life as a spectre is another. I also am not sure the timeframe for when my father in law guarded Hess - he mentioned the whole thing very casually at a family wedding so I’ve never had the opportunity to quiz him!
You don't have "Mein Kampf" without Hess, you don't have a mass party with ideas add to actions, without Hess. He wasn't able to play the game of power in the nazi Camelot, he was not that kind of man. But he was much more than a Hitler fanboy.
The way he was treated in Spandau was just a small portion of all the pain that he helped to create.
@@aha3885 Absolutey agree. He deserved every second (and more, if you ask me).
@@bethwatt674 The fact that Hess, Dönitz and Speer could survived the Nüremberg trials, shows how smart were those guys. NSDAP was full of bright people, same as the Schultzstaffel, SS. And obviusly, Wehrmacht Oberkommandos were formed by some of the most brilliant military men of the 20th century. You can say the same with the nazi science, their work fed the American space program. ¿And what about politics? Well, there's no politics and politicians in the way that we know it, without Gauleiter Dr. Göebbles. He invected all the stuff, the big rallys, the mass propaganda, radio, tv, cinema, fake news factory inside the party and the government, he became Hitler in a movie star. Göebbles was Twitter and Facebook sixty years before internet.
Today, we have one of the smartest presidents in the world, with a vast culture, invading and killing his neighbours. And he acts and uses the same tricks than nazis used. When you mix talent and evil, the world begins to trumble.
@@aha3885 You certainly aren't implying that Joe Biden is "one of the smartest presidents in the world", are you?
Interesting fact . The 80's band Spandau Ballet took their name from the Prison Hess was incarcerated in , the ballet part referring to hanging .
Gold
Gold
One thing was certain, not enough Gold in the world was enough to extend his Lifeline to tell what he knew was True.
Awful but accurate
Spandau Ballet got their name from some graffiti written on the bathroom wall of a nightclub.
Wrong!! Spadau Ballet formed well before 1987 and Hess's hanging.
Hess never took part in the "Final Solution." He should have been released once he reached old age.
He did not disavow the Neurenberg race laws on Jews. He did not resign because of the race laws. He was fully aware of everything what was set in motion. The deathcamps were known and operational in the late 30s in Germany, and in the early 40s in Poland and other nations. Together with Heydrich and Himmler, Hess visited an exhibition for 'Generalplan Ost' on 20 march of 1941 about the plans of exterminating the people in the by German occupied eastern territories. Hess knew it all.
@@michaelg8193 You know, Germany had a representative in Moscow in 1941. They knew everything. Stalin's gift to the Nazis was to turn over some 600 German Communists, most of them Jews, to the Gestapo.
@@michaelg8193 They were not death camps in the late 30s, they were in essence to re-educate people seen as problematic to the Reich. The final solution came about after the invasion of the USSR.
@@distantthunder12ck55 In Buchenwald they started killings in end of 30s though not officially a deathcamp indeed. Sachsenhausen became the SS education camp to learn about guarding deathcamps in 1938. The final solution was 'only' a part within the larger 'Generalplan Ost' (1941). The extermination of people in Eastern Europe was projected to be about not less than 100 million people to be exterminated. The Holocaust was just a 'practise' for the larger catastrophy the Germans wanted to achieve. The deathcamps like Sobibor, Dachau and Birkenau were indeed later in the war.
If he had been just a tiny bit less fanatic and/or just smart enough to pretend regret like the rest of them, he wouldve been released like the rest. After all, far too many didnt get any punishment, and many with as much or more to their name got off with a few years. But they were all clever enough to at least publicly pretend to have repented and put nazism behind them.
Hess was a devout Nazi to the end with no remorse, no repentence, no change at all. Thats why he was never released. And the longer he sat there, the harder it became for the allies to just release him.
That said, he also clearly had severe mental problems, and imo he shouldve been placed in a secure mental institution for the rest of his life rather than a prison.
Funny thing is if Hess had lived for a few more years he would have seen the end of the Cold War.
So ????
And if he had been born much sooner he would have seen the end of the American Civil War. So?

I still think the peace mission was with knowledge from Hitler and involved the royal British family. Idea being staging a coup by the younger brother of the king and ex king disposing of Churchill and signing peace with Germany. Churchill found out and prevented it. The younger brother was then disposed of in an airplane crash in 1942 (on his way to a secret meeting with the Germans?) and Hess was silenced for the rest of his life.
When he was about to be released he was killed in British custody thereby silencing him.
You're very likely right, it's extremely sad and emotional. Especially since everything the Germans warned of has come to pass.

Smuts Barracks. I got posted there on the Chieftain Tanks crews in February 88, 6 months after Hess hung himself. According to friends based there at the time they brought his body onto the Tank Park in an Ambulance. My pal Paul got see him in the back which I thought was quite a Cool story given Hess's controversial life and strong involvement in the Nazi party, second only to seeing Hitler after his death.
The accommodation at Smuts Barracks was 7 stories high and if you went to the top floor you could apparently see Hess in his excercise yard. They started to knock the prison down just before I got there and it was rubble. However Smuts Barracks is still there and used as a migrant camp.
Wait! Wait so you're telling me he was paranoid about poisoned food but was suicidal at the same time.

I was stationed in Berlin, with the British Army. My room overlooked Spandau prison.
One RUMOR was the allies didn’t want him to die during the Soviets prison watch. It was perceived that the Soviets would use the death for increased SOXMIS missions in to W. Berlin. Spandau prison overlooked our tank park, and I’m sure they had some interest in our Chieftains (at the time the only 120mm NATO gun tank).
Now that is an interesting theory.
But mere surveillance seems
a trifling motive when dealing
with Rudolph Hess character.
Also why they want blame
for it ?
He stuck up for his country, but he didn't like the cost
The European brother war, and lives were being lost
He saw the grieving mothers whose sons could not be found
He wanted peace to stop the endless coffins on the ground

@@redceltnet what kind of statement is that?

i think the fact that Hess flew over and tried to negotiate a peace deal could of been taken into account, he missed most of the war, so many German hierarchy down to lower ranks were involved in attrocities and never held to account. Hess obviously was mentally ill, call it 'conflicted' and probably ran various debates through his mind endlessly contributing to suicidal thoughts. On the other hand the Germans were building concentration camps back in 1933 and probably planning on revenge since the end of WW1. I'd like to know what Hess talked about or wanted to discuss or how he proposed to diffuse the situation back in 1941, when you consider that some nazi's were intensifying the holocaust and the death really late in the war, a senior nazi making a plunge for peace in 1941, i don't know, seems he was treated a bit harsh maybe? i'd like to know more about Hess, he may of even got out of his plane and expecting to take the surrender of Britain, it could of been blind ambition who knows?

As a neutral leader Eamon de Valera secretly admired Hitler, rod a fine line between Nazi Germany and Britain, not helped by a pro-Nazi envoy in Berlin and his controversial condolences on Hitler’s death.A phantom hangs over Ireland’s relations with Hitler’s Germany. Since Eamon de Valera’s visit to the Third Reich’s minister to Ireland on 2 May 1945, the spectre of pro-Nazism has dogged Ireland’s reputation. De Valera’s condolences on the suicide of the German head of state, Adolf Hitler, spawned immediate international condemnation. He gifted his critics all the ammunition that they desired to stigmatise Ireland.
I read a very interesting book once which claimed, with some degree of hard fact and forensic evidence that the man who flew to Britain was not Rudolf Hess.

I believe that he was murdered. I remember when 60 Minutes did a story about this.
Always wondered how it was that he got away with a life sentence when many not as high ranking were executed
He shouldn't have been sentenced at all. He was imprisoned while attempting to make a peace deal with the British prior to any of the "extermination camps" and other falsehoods proposed at the trials

Wow..he was 93, in poor health, no longer had any information as the events were 40-plus years prior, and had a long history of psychological issues before his life sentence...how was his death suspicious due to “lamp cord not messed up enough”? And I can easily see someone with arthritis (which causes pain and stiffness) not wanting to tie his shows daily due to discomfort, but be able to use them if for important things.
Hess had an amazing unibrow.
I wrote him a letter once
Why was Hess possibly murdered after all those years? No doubt he had said all he was ever going to say but then.
Hess was not allowed to talk about certain topics (like ww2). When he met his family in the prison there was a strict line that what was allowed to be spoken.
He was murdered in jail by the people guarding him! I'm sure of it!
Leave the ‘shrooms alone. They’re affecting your reasoning.
waiting 40 years to murder someone, sorry, makes zero sense to me
@armo armo12 no, he wasn’t going free, bogus argument
@armo armo12 who cares what he said, I am reading actual historical accounts, there were no plans to release him
@armo armo12 he did get life sentence, I suggest you learn basic history
We will never know the 100% truth. Usually that would result in some sort of a demand for answers. But considering we’re talking about a high ranking Nazì, I don’t believe there is/will ever be the political will or public desire to seek ‘justice’ for his death (if he was killed). To be blunt, he was a Nazì and most people only care that he’s dead.
He was 93, what's the mystery?
The British probably got tired of spending all that money on one man so they offed him.
As soon as Hess died, the whole prison was bulldozed, and the rubble was taken away to stop pieces being taken by anyone. The site was then developed as a shopping centre, a quiz show asked people to give the centre a name, the one they didn't pick was "Hessco".
Wow, so amnesia makes the evil go away?
Don’t a lot of people arrested for murder say: I don’t remember anything that happened!?!
Im not an historian nor an expert on assassination squads. But to strangle a 93 year old man with an electrical cord seems a bit personal to me. I have my guess on who done it. Well done.
Yeah it's funny how history has a nasty habits of repeating itself
The "mysterious " death of a 93 year old. Mysterious? Really?!!
So what if he was 93? None of the reasons for his apparent death was because of old age
Hess was murdered to stop him telling the truth regarding the reason he flew to Scotland,
Russian said yes for reunification of Germany, but no way to rudolf Hess,to be release, so the deal was, Hess die
I guarded Hess in the 70’s at Spandau located in the Spandau district of Berlin. The only reason the Russians kept him there was because it gave them a reason and a foothold in side West Berlin. Hess’s mind wasn’t right in the end . He hated the Russians as they miss treated him when it was there turn to guard him . Maybe it was the last straw when his release was rejected . We will never know . I do know he was a bit of a prankster. It was said he used to beg for cigarettes off the duty guards but would then report them . My claim to fame is that I said hello to him . I believe he was a very clever man that read a lot , he would often go to the BMH in Berlin, the British Military Hospital is where my wife worked . Good memories indeed .
Hess was Epsteined.

He couldn’t lift his arms above his head,
His death might have been suspicious but then he did have a history of attempted suicides.
Hess's eyebrows were outta this world.
I agree, definitely the best 👍😁
He reminds me of former U S President Nixon in appearance
He had to comb them in the morning
Gee! The first reptilod on earth?
😂😂😂😂 you guys.... Lmao
But he was nearly dead of old age, why the need to kill him for financial reasons? Or was it because “they” couldn’t risk him saying what he came to Scotland 🏴 to say all those years ago? He came with something to say, something that would irrevocably change our future forever.
When you're 93 and spent 40 plus years in prison any statement you make can be ignored on account of being considered a dementia stricken old man.
@@florinivan6907 That’s a very good point. And one might ask why a man almost ready to pop his clogs at 93 would feel the need to kill himself. But then again, dementia can make people do odd things.
I wonder if he had made 100 if the Queen would have sent him a Birthday card LOL
Villanelle did it!
The Clintons
"The obvious murder of Rudolph Hess". There, I fixed the title for you.
im surprised he didnt use justified or righteous or some other click bait term hahaha
He was definitely killed , I always said it had to do something with the fact that Hitler repeatedly tried to make peace with England
Hess was very know in the Netherlands for being the right hand side of hitler. Much hated in Holland
He was about to go on Oprah and tell all.
Was Hess's marriage laws regarding Jews any different to Israel's marriage laws regarding non-Jews? I mean it seems to me the standards are "it's ok when we do it" when it comes to Jewish people.
