Anyone with an interest in history has an opinion concerning the topic of what actually happened to Adolf Hitler post World War II. The two main perspectives of what happened to Hitler are he either really did commit suicide in his bunker in 1945, or the belief that Hitler faked his death and escaped. While some arguments supporting history may be mentioned, the main focus in this paper will be to discuss the evidence supporting the theory that Adolf Hitler faked his death and got away with it.
HITLER’S GREAT ESCAPE 3
Hitler’s Great Escape
Adolf Hitler is one of the world’s most infamous men. So it should not come as a shock to anyone that his death is a very controversial topic in today’s society. One side comes straight from the history books.

The main arguments often used to support the theory he faked his death center around the suspicious circumstances surrounding the death of Adolf Hitler. In this researcher’s opinion, some of these suspicious facts make a lot of sense. These facts alone could make one question the story history has always told us about Hitler’s death. One of the most concerning issues deals
HITLER’S GREAT ESCAPE 4 with the fact that the United States did not get a chance to examine Hitler’s body and perform an autopsy until almost 10 years ago - more than 60 years later (Nelson, 2016). The only country allowed to examine Hitler’s body other than Germany was Russia (Tkachenko, 2009). In 2009,
American researchers were finally given the opportunity to run tests on the few remains still left of Hitler. Today, and even in 2009, the only piece left of Hitler’s body is a piece of skull fragment containing a single bullet. It is said that the piece of skull was taken straight from the underground bunker and transported to Russia for tests directly after, and had been exclusively in their hands until the late 2000s. After finally receiving the fragment, the test showed astonishing results. The tests revealed the skull that for years had been said to be

Hitler and Nazism is a lasting trauma, not only for the world’s society, but also for it’s millions of victims. Only through history can we learn for the future.
The first half of his life ended on February 29, 1948. His kidnappers belonged to the communist secret police. He had been arrested during the war by the Fascists who ruled in Hitler's day, and again when the Communists took over. His whole philosophy had been materialistic until then, but his heart could not be satisfied with it. He believed in theory that man is only matter, and that when he dies, he decomposes into salt and minerals.
The senseless massacre of millions upon millions of innocent people all started by a man named Adolf Hitler who came to power in 1933. The Nazis brought terrible fatalities and chaos in Europe beginning with a purified race and ending with the Final Solution in a maniacal plot to exterminate Jews. The holocaust is a awful incident that should have never happened in the first place, but I believe that this made me more aware of the fundamental causes and vast implications involved in how a genocide can occur. I also learned how this changed the future I live in today. I believe that the holocaust still plays an important role in current times, history contributes to moral understanding, and it helps us understand people and societies, and makes an impact in our own lives as well. Examples of this would be how tactical we start and finish wars, if we let propaganda get to us, or how we don’t let just one person reign. By studying the past and different societies in the past, a broad viewpoint can help us change and improve the future. This moment in history is much better than before more rights and freedoms, better technology, and more education to help prevent any future genocide. From the holocaust people can learn not to do this again. The world would be a better place if all races and creeds developed tolerance and respect for each other - but all sides have to make the effort. Hitler’s perfect
We all have gone through troubling times in our life. We have all experienced pain and loss one way or another. The Holocaust was a completely different kind of horror, and Adolf Hitler was the sole cause of World War II and the Holocaust. The Holocaust was a terrible time for the Jewish people of Germany. Hitler had two plans for Germany, the camp life was traumatizing and the aftermath of the Holocaust left Germany both physically and mentally broken.
In the final year of his life, the failed attempts to take Adolf Hitler’s life were probably just as important as the allied advance. With his empire crumbling around him, the fuhrer grew despondent. Just like the third reich, Hitler let the hammer fall, leaving Blondi alone to howl at the
An austrian man by the name of Adolf Hitler who had served in the German Army during WWI, thought that Germans were better than others because of their DNA, and that all other races must be exterminated to create what he called a utopian society. After hearing of Germany's capitulation in WWI in a hospital recovering from a mustard gas attack, Adolf Hitler thought that he needed to gain control of the government to carry out his plans. In an attempt to overthrow to German government by force, Adolf was arrested. He was supposed to go to jail for five years; however, during his time in jail, he wrote a book called Mein Kampf, which means, My Struggles in english. The book was about Hitler's life, his ideas about cleaning up the bloodline, world domination/ utopian society, and how he was going to pull it off. He called it, "the Final Solution". Because of the money and popularity his book made, he got out of jail after a mere nine months. Once out of jail, he would be appointed to the position of chancelor by the president of Germany in 1933. From this position, he said that if the president died or resigned, he would become dictator. When the president died short after, he self-appointed himself to the position of dictator. Once he was dictator, he created the Neuremburg laws, which took away many of the Jew's rights. He also started calling the undesireables to death camps, which was the beginning of the Holocaust.
... to be inevitably lost and with his followers having doubts, Hitler killed himself on April 30, 1945 (Duffy 115-120). We can all agree that Hitler’s master plan was corrupt. And that it is to the world’s benefit that Hitler was not able to accomplish his master plan. But we must also notice that Hitler is a man who had a great amount of power, and came as close as anyone to dominating the world. Although his beliefs and actions are defiantly corrupt, Hitler’s effect on the world is enormous. Hitler fought for the German culture that he loved, and influenced the Germans into fighting with him. His motive for fighting was not justified, but he proved he was man who had to be dealt with. His impact on the world is arguably more than that of any other single man. Although his impact did not improve the world, Hitler can still be considered the most dominant man in the history of the world.
Adolf Hitler, an Austrian born German politician, a once decorated World War I veteran, the leader of Nazi Germany, the man responsible for the holocaust and millions of deaths, is without a doubt the most hated man of the 20th Century and arguably throughout the entire history of the human race. Adolf Hitler did many things throughout his lifetime that have affected the outcome of the world today, such as what he did to the Jewish people or how he attempted and almost succeeded in conquering the world. Most people know the main things that Hitler did because of how much they affected the world, but not as many people understand exactly how it was that this man rose to power in the first place. Adolf Hitler rose to power very quickly because
Throughout the Second World War and in the lead up to it, the actions of Hitler and the Nazi Party played a large role in history. The Nazi’s involvement changed the course of history through the violence and dehumanisation that took place in an effort to persecute the Jews.

There are many great men who have left a significant impact on the world, some positive and some negative. Nazi leader, Adolf Hitler was the most notorious dictators of those of his time, before, and after. Leaving a negative association with his name, Adolf Hitler played a rather powerful role in not only Germany’s history, but world history. Throughout his lifetime Hitler, a persuasive and brutal man, led his country to carry out mass destruction which lead him to the depletion of his reputation.
Today - half a century after the conclusion of the Second World War - it would be fair to expect a less emotional environment, one in which historians, researchers and writers were free to examine the actual causes of the war as well as the atrocities committed by both sides in the conflict. However, those and other topics are more forbidden than ever with the greatest taboo surrounding analysis of the fate of Europe's Jews and others in what has come to be known as the Holocaust.
