      I had a high school History teacher who was downright obsessed with Hitler. She had family die in the Holocaust. So she virulently despised the Third Reich and seemed very keen to point out their many flaws to us during class. We could even get her sidetracked by asking random questions about Hitler if we felt lazy lol.
      Ended up learning quite a bit about Hitler if I’m honest.

      Paul Tello I don't know if that specifically was true, but the Nazi scientists did conduct many gruesome experiments on twins due to the fact that twins are perfect for having s reference: just conduct the experiments on only one twin, and you can pretty certainly attribute every effect only the twin who got experimented on shows to the experiment.

      @Paul Tello First you say the experiment seems implausible, then you wonder why other scientists didn't perform the same experiments.
      Seems like facts and consistency don't matter to you as much as throwing doubt on war crimes. You don't have an argument. You don't even have a say in whether or not these things happened. History is not a field where "hmmmm, that doesn't seem like something that fits my preconceived notions, therefor it probably didn't happen" has any weight or meaning.
      That's literally less credible than these assholes in these terrible documentaries. At least they're out there trying to gather evidence. Even the ancient aliens guys can point to something.

    Fun fact. While the Indiana Jones movies are responsible for the misconception that Nazi's were after ancient artifacts and were obsessed with the occult, they do portray the Nazi's historically accurately in one way. The Nazi's in the Indiana Jones movies are hilariously and comically inept. They don't get filmed in any particularly menacing way, the violence inflicted upon them is comically gratuitous, they are hilariously incompetent and disorganized, and they would have lost regardless of Indiana Jones's involvement. Which is why they are the best film nazi's ever.

      Obviously it’s a big brain move, clearly if they won ppl would know they had time travel then invent super time travel to double go back in time and defeat them. So and it’s pretty obvious what happened, hitler n other nazis used the bell time machine made up by a writer after they were long dead to go to the future, get dna genetic restructuring nanites to turn themselves into lizard reptilian people. Then went through time disguised as various key figures subtly revealing hints they are secretly reptilian so ppl focus on reptilian aliens instead. Ummm then uhh oh yes they were taken off earth by space werewolves from the future and are building a nazi reptilian space werewolf cyborg occult magic army in the center of the moon. Then when idk the planets all allign on a certain day in the future …that’s a decent reason for stupid sci fi bs to happen right? Well ya when whatever I said happens they will…..land the moon on the earth in the past and uhh win or something I guess. Ah shit I shoulda pitched that to history channel instead of a comment section, probably woulda made it a show n paid me.

      They could’ve still had their superweapon even then. If they went with the reasonable route of taking a hollowed out asteroid just big enough to house the super laser and it’s energy source they could’ve perhaps built multiple of that. Or even in Star Wars there’s this tactic called Base Delta Zero which has been used for thousands of years by simply bombarding a planet from orbit via parked battleships and that’s enough to glass a planet. So even in Star Wars a massive dick measuring contest like the Death Star or even slightly reasonable asteroid star is unnecessary when you can just have 30 Star destroyers glass a planet.

      Page count is rather irrelevant in reference to a novel length, there are a thousand factors that could make a novel contain more pages that have little to do with actual book length. For example the standard edition print of "A Game of Thrones," has 694 pages, so that means it's shorter than the standard edition print of "The Order of the Phoenix," at 766 pages, right? In fact, "A Game of Thrones." has over 35 thousand more words than "Order of the Phoenix." (292,727
      vs 257,045)
      This is not to besmirch the Harry Potter novel, but merely to point out those "700," pages could be even less than you think it is. All it means is they found 700 words, and the fact that they do not read them, and act like it's a huge number is really telling.

Mind you, that's not praise, but a damning statement of German generals by comparison, and one that should be brought up because those same generals later shafted the blame for their own horrible actions and rank stupidity on Hitler. Hitler was an idiot, but he was even less of an idiot than the men he appointed to prosecute his wars of pointless genocide for him.
      That being said, I can praise the few ingenious German logisticians who did their damnedest to point out the easily-missed fact to said generals that Russia, is in fact, much larger than France.

    Delightful irony: mid-90s History Channel is the reason 10yo me got obsessed with Raoul Wallenberg. I saw a garbage conspiracy documentary on his "mysterious" disappearance, loved the parts that talked about who he was and why he mattered, decided the guy was my personal hero, bored everyone at school by talking about how awesome he was, and even today I own a T-shirt with his face on it.
    The Hitler Channel is why I'm a giant fan of a dude whose main claim to fame was all the people he saved from the Nazis--not for money or recognition, but simply because he considered saving people from the Nazis on the largest scale possible to be his moral obligation as a human being. The lesson I took away from the Hitler Channel was "Nazis are awful, people should oppose them in every way they possibly can, and the coolest human beings are the ones who ruin Nazi stuff."

    "Hitler was secretly gay/bi", "Hitler only had one testicle", etc. theories come from the same place: That this man was so evil, that he couldn't be normal. That he had to be in some way deviant, because how do you process the atrocities he committed if he was just a straight white man just like you? Obviously Hitler was not gay and those theories come from a pretty homophobic place imo, but they also are in line with this weird way of thinking that Hitler couldn't have been just a normal man who committed horrifying deeds.

No, the DUMBEST part of it was Hitler invading Russia to begin with. I'd say he shot himself in the foot with it, but honestly, it's more like he shot himself directly in the femoral artery. Yeah man, go ahead and drag a country into the war against you that probably wouldn't have gotten involved in that point otherwise AND divide your forces while you're at it.

    The Nazis were actually obsessed with finding ancient artifacts, but for different reasons. Himmler and Hitler wanted to prove that Aryans had been a former super race, and Himmler became obsessed with proving this by researching artifacts in occupied territories and Germany in an effort to reinforce German nationalism. Hitler ultimately became frustrated with this effort, since Himmler was just finding that these things were not true, and despite Himmler's continued obsession and devotion to these ideals, Hitler wanted to end the effort since it was just damaging his narrative. Good video though, because you were not wrong, but I just wanted to point out that the Nazi archaeological effort was a very real thing.

    Funny enough I study about Nazi Germany literally in Hebrew U in Jerusalem.. When studying about Hitler, our international relations professor told us there are two things that made hitler make moves- ideology and opportunism.
    He made moves in the name of ideology from the beginning, but was able to wait a lot of time for the right opportunity to make excuses for it. His behavioral pattern was to make a radical move and than immediately make a speech that it’s the last time. The fact he made it that far before making the agreement countries (Britain US and France) just goes to show how stupid were everyone. The direct and probable only reason he won the election was because of the Great Depression.
    I always wonder what hitler would’ve thought if he knew Jewish students were studying about his demise, in Hebrew and in Jerusalem lol
