    ------------
    I couldn’t find a credible source for the total money spent on the celebration and so I haven’t included it in the video. However, I’ve found the figure for money spend on various gifts (like offering money to poor sections of society on the birthday), which stand at $5.225 million, adjusted for inflation that would be $111.3 million.
    Add $210 Million for Eagle’s Nest to that and the Nazi Germany spent at least $320 Million on Hitler’s 50th Birthday.

      Correction : It's not Swastika Symbol
      It's Nazi Symbol. Both are different, in their appearance, and meaning, and culture and followers.
      It's extremely disrespectful to the Hindu Community by calling the Nazi Symbol as Swastika.
      Being a Channel with more than 300k subs, you should act more responsibly.

      Brother. I love your videos and I'm sure I'll love this one too, but paused at 2:32 and came to comment here. Please refrain from calling the Nazi symbol as swastika. It was Hakenkreuz. Hitler had himself called it the Hooked cross in his book. A cursory web search will show you that too.
      The reason I wanted to bring this to your notice is, Hindus, Jains, Buddhists and Sikhs have been using Swastika as a symbol of peace and good luck for centuries, but are afraid to display it even within their homes and cars (while in western nations) due to it being termed as a Nazi symbol. It hurts when an informative channel like yours too misrepresent the holy symbol.
      Nazi symbol Swastika.
      Thank you

      if you did not know the outcome of WW2, How would you even remotely say that was true? What was on display was arguably some of the best military equipment of their day, when nations put on displays such as this one they are making a statement, not only to the people in their own country but the world, Can't be a sign of financial weakness when things like this likely cost a fortune for those that would hold such an event, in UK the Queen does Trooping the colour, and Britain has been going for a good while, China has recently been posturing with Taiwan which is worrying in more modern times, and let's face it China is also an economic powerhouse, similar to the USA.
