Points for historical accuracy I suppose.
Yep
😂😂
Can someone explain this o.o
@Sazkert
My support goes with the Praetorian Guards since most of the Roman Emperors are actually a-holes to rule such great empire
tries to recreate the praetorian guard - sounds like a child playing soldiers to me
When you look at Hitler, Goebel and Himmler, it makes you wonder where the idea of the perfect Aryan came from?
older than you Cali Master race, indeed right!?!
it came from ancient Sanskrit texts and theosophists like Blavatsky
from their dreams after looking their mirrors.
from the aliens they got their technology from 8 ft. tall whites
India. They still as a honorific in names such as Adi shankarachARYA where it means "noble" . The name IRAN is also based off aryan.
Well that SScalated quickly...
Ahhhh I see what you did there
😂
Hahahahahshahahaha
Was meant to give the Aryan effect...
Well done sir

I did nazi that joke coming
you poor thing. you need a sicherer Raum
I don't know why nazis are so fascinating to me, they are like the perfect villains and a perfect example of a dark human nature. Also they have cool uniforms, tanks, german language, war titles, manners, engineering, thule occultism and etc. Who loves wolfenstein?
MR SLAV Hugo Boss did the uniforms for the SS so...
Soviets thought so too. I have seen a video of Russian troops (guarding some sort of memorial) goosestepping while holding their rifles by the stock only. Really. Don't think that's tough ? You try it.
MR SLAV I agree about the uniforms. I think it was a British general said that if war was a fashion show the Germans would have won hands down! LOL
Tony Davidson Like communists?
Stubby Pepperoni
No they were bad because a hollywood movie told me so
Eisenhower was the supreme allied commander (general of the armies)during ww2. He was not president until after the war.
Irvin Chadwick just was about to comment the same thing lol
I think his statement was accurate though. Himlar most likely would have been negotiating with Ike, if this had taken place. While FDR was still president, he died shortly after the war with the Nazis ended. He was also in declining health and mostly bed ridden during this time.
Alexander Hamilton the war was still going on in Japan when FDR died and Truman took over.
Rosevelt was dead by April 20th, Simon either meant "President Truman" or "Supreme Allied Commander Eisenhower."
roaewelt didn't se the end of the fight against the Nazis, that ended 4/5 1945 and he died half a month before
The weakest chin ever to achieve such high power.

Hate him for who he was, but the climb to power is like something from a fantasy novel.
The man was a monster. But he was a monster with a plan. And that's terrifying. Absolutely terrifying.
Very well stated. Stay Vegan!
Have to say, Yes, Himmler was an absolute monster, but some believe that Reynhard Heydrich, his 2nd in command, would have been far worse had he not been assassinated in 1942.
He was weasel rising up
Agreed
velouris76 How was Heydrich worse than Himmler? I see a lot of people saying this but with no evidence.

Himmler is the perfect example of why when studying history you must always think critically of a piece of information. If you were unaware of his past actions, and were given extracts of his memoirs, you would assume he was not a bad guy, and was forced to do what he did. But in context you would know that he wrote his memoirs while rotting in a cell waiting to be judged, he was just trying to escape his inevitable judgement
This is the most bizarre comment section I have ever seen
Welcome to WW2 era videos.
And so it may seem
You haven't seen comments by Trumpites on Michell Obama or the haters of Meghan. Pure racism; the Nazis would be proud of.

I have a huge compliment for you: Having a voracious appetite for world history, I find that so often it takes FOREVER for the makers of documentaries to get to the point and weave the story of whatever the subject is they are covering. You get to the point and speak at a pace that is clear and easy to listen to, but also disseminates a great deal of information in an efficient way without wasting the time of the viewers with unnecessary dramatic pauses and long gaps of information while pictures are displayed for far longer than is needed. I also love that you don’t seem to think the viewers need to have 40,000 reminders of what you’ve just spoken about , which again holds up the narrative far too long. Watching broadcast network tv documentaries can be horribly painful as they spend more time recapping what’s happened prior to the commercial break and giving previews of what’s to come after the commercial break than actually providing the narrative the viewer is there to see and learn about. You repeat what feels necessary to repeat but always keep the narrative moving without wasting the time of your viewers. A++++ on that! When I come to CZcams to gain knowledge and perspective about some piece of history, I’m forever aggravated when it takes up huge chunks of time with fancy video transitions and ridiculously long spans of time between one solid good piece of information and the next one, so I’m always happy when a CZcams search about something brings up a content creator like yourself who gets right to the point and keeps it all rolling along efficiently! I hope some network gives you a show of your own because it would be incredibly interesting to watch you on location actually rolling through a narrative that is compelling and not filled with manufactured drama. Let’s face it, so many pieces of history, especially during the WWII period, are already sufficiently dramatic on their own. And there are SO many conflicting reports of the facts of this period, that anyone with an interest in history is smart to go to multiple sources to get a clearer picture of what most likely occurred. That is made much easier when a video rolls along and doesn’t waste the time of the viewers. You seem to get that and this viewer is greatly appreciative of that! Bravo!
You mean virtually all American documentaries.. so dumbed down and filled with awful music, and so peppered with adverts that they are unwatchable..
Should have stayed a chicken farmer
pretty poultry existence.
The results after WW1 stopped him from doing so..
PRINCE KRAZIE tomatoes too
Then no one would know his name. He would have been forgotten in one generation.
He became a jew farmer
Really enjoy your channel.
One of the things that never ceases to amaze me about Himmler, is how in terms of appearance he was the exact opposite of the 'Aryan ideals' the Nazis put forward as their ideal German. Same with Goebbels and his club foot.
And not to mention Hitler himself, who didn't know one of his grandparents and therefore could not prove by his own rules that he was of pure Aryan descent.
Because you've been brainwashed to believe a bunch of bs about NAZI germany. They've only fed you the blonde hair blue eyed posters. Falian-nordic core, western influence, etc were accepted and prized. I'd have jet black hair without any sunshine. Have natural bleach blonde in the summer. You have been so failed by the history writers, because the victors write it.
There was a saying in NAZI German that made fun of the west's warped view of them (which played right into the whole idea that jews controlled the west/russia) : "to be a good nazi, you have to be as blonde as hitler, as tall of Geobbels, and as thin as Goring."
In which ways do you believe Himmler doesn't look Aryan?
Aryan just means white. "Pure European." Middle easterners such as Iranians fit the bill plenty.
This guy thought he was a example of a master race? Were Mirror's banned in germany?
Lol!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😁😁😁😁
That was funny .
Does anyone know why he looked so asian? And btw, i think he might've not meant biologicaly. Maybe he meant spiritualy/mind wise.
Tbh. Like 90% of these Nazi leaders were ugly and beta af.
He wasn't able to take a look into the mirror, since his head was so far up his own ass
my uncle looks just like himmler, i mean just like him. when i was in second grade i started to get into history and i was watching history channel and it was on WW2 and he was at my house and it was on, i had him come to the livingroom and was like "look look you look just like him". apparently that wasn't a kind thing to say to an officer in the air force lmfao.
How did he react?
Was he from Argentina by any chance?
@@DjDeadpig Damn.
Imagine doing the Nazi salute everytime you see your uncle. lol
A bit of trivia: Himmler (like Hitler) was mobile and visited the Eastern Front a few times. On one occassion he visited an Einzatsgruppen unit who were executing"partisans" and the men aware of Himmler's retoric pushed a gun into his hand and asked him to kill a few himself. Under peer pressure he shot a prisoner and then virtually collapsed. Himmler was lethal only at the other end of his secretaries typewriter or telex machine.
He also vomited as well as almost fainting.
He's the original internet gangsta
I mean it's really fucking easy to order people to do sth even nowadays. I bet you most people that order tortures wouldn't be able to pull it off.....
He was their generations keyboard warrior

Quick note Eisenhower was the 5 star general and supreme allied commander over all forces in Europe at that time he was not President of the United States. He became president in 1952 and was re-elected in 1956.
I have watched many of your videos and want to commend you on your great work. I don't think the general public appreciates how much hard work it takes to create quality content. Great Work!
Thank you for mentioning this. When he said that, I was having a serious WTF moment.
I was looking for a comment that did this same thing 😂@@SaganCozmos
"Oh no I'm captured! I could stay quiet and wait for a time to escape. No, I shall tell my enemies that I am the second in command of the Nazis. I'm sure they'll treat me well!"
Such stupidity is to be expected of a man who believes in racial science.
Seems like it was his last play. How long would his body guards held off giving him up?
Himmler was a esoteric racist, he didn't believe in science. And he probably believed the british would follow a outdated code of honour for captured officers.

You accidentally said president Eisenhower instead of general Eisenhower
You always refer to people by their highest rank, even if at the time he was a general you still refer to him as president

Great information and presentation; factual, concise and well delivered - very watchable and informative. Thanks mate.
Excellent delivery, thank you so much.I'm so glad you mentioned other groups who suffered, rather than just the Jews, something often ignored.
I highly suggest an episode on Niccolò Machiavelli
I agree, but how much do we actually know about him to talk about? He's mainly known through his book "Il Principe" (The Prince) but beyond that that not too much.
That's what'll make it interesting. My boy Simon always finds a way ;)
Emperor Picasso I already mentioned that a while ago, they said it'll be out in 4 weeks or so
He was extremely influential on 16th Century thinking, until today. I can only compare him to Max Weber of the 19th Century in terms of actual impact.
I agree, there is actually a lot reliable information about Machiavelli's career in politics and how his two main works, The Prince & Discourses on Livy, contrast one another in terms of their intended political utility. Could make for a very interesting watch!
President Eisenhower??? Don’t you mean General Eisenhower? After messing up the date of JFK’s death I really thought you’d improve your fact checking.
Eric Spratt As far as I know it's somebody else writing it, and fact checking too. He narrates them and shows his face. But I do agree they need to do an extra fact check before filming just to be sure!
Might have just been a slip of the tongue while reading but not worth filming the entire piece to camera over again to correct it, that's what comment sections on CZcams are for. If it was a TV show that would be different
its not really wrong, just should have been said as "then general, president Eisenhower" minor detail anyone with any historical knowledge would overlook
Ainiewainy well he is not that smart then. I mean, im a average joe and i knew that he wasnt the president.
"well he is not that smart then. I mean, im a average joe and i knew that he wasnt the president."
www.history.com/topics/us-presidents/dwight-d-eisenhower
Specifically 34th president, a significant cold war president that implemented high-pressure strategies against the Soviet Union. He just wasn't the president at the time. Thus, easy enough slip of the tongue. Almost more a grammatical mistake than a historical one, he was significant in both roles. However, I believe Himmler *did* suggest meeting directly with *general* Eisenhower. Why he thought Eisenhower would not be overridden is hard to say though. Stupid move on Himmler's part.
aaand he actually made that mistake multiple times. Nevermind.
Grim stuff. I continue to be amazed by the breadth and quality of your work. Thanks.

Correction: Eisenhower was not President during the war. He was not elected President until 1952. I believe he was the General of the Army and Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force.
Doug Housley Eisenhower campaigned and was elected in 1952. He took office in January of 1953.
That's why I said he was " not elected until" not "did not become President until." Regardless, the thesis of the statement was that he was not President during the war as was stated in the video.

"The most monstrous betrayal in history yet ..." Lord bless us they had SUCH a high opinion of themselves, didn't they? Poor Himmler he had not a single redeeming feature; he was thoroughly unattractive to look at; he threw up when the brains of some poor, innocent victim of his savagery splashed on his uniform; he was given a command, eventually, towards the end of the war and failed miserably and then, in order to save his miserable skin, he betrayed his 'beloved' Fuhrer. WHAT a loser and what a crackpot. He didn't even succeed as a chicken farmer - what a legacy to carry through history!
Implying that I've achieved nothing in my life? Well you'd be surprised ... but I'm afraid I can't claim to have murdered somewhere between 3 and 6 million people. Or maybe you look upon that as his great success? Ah well, it takes all sorts I suppose.

it would be cool if you could also do an episode of Eva Braun, Leni Rienfenstahl, or Magda Goebbels.

I agree. Biographies of the women of the Reich would be interesting. Reading biographies of the women of the Bible has been fascinating. The spouses of famous people and their assistants often give a better picture of the times that various actions were teken in.

@Viking nuh
I'm not so sure his suicide was a "cowardly" act.
After all, he knew he would be subjected to countless hour's, day's and month's of interrogation... with possibly some form of torture or abuse throughout... while in-and-out of a dank solitary cell.
He didn't commit suicide. He was killed by the British.
Actually that is the sad part of it...... You may call him a coward but it was actually the opposite..... They wanted him alive, he beat that. He would have been tortured and he avoided that also.... It actually sucks ass that he got away with all he committed

nailed 100%
this
Radical Leftist, Woodrow Wilson made a number of huge betrayals to the USA.
Yes the FED was my RED PILL hence all the fake trolls negative comments.

Simon your words and photographs shown truly tell himmler and his horrific tale
Hi Simon you do some really good biographies any chance of doing any on Montgomery, Atlee, Harris?
Just throwing it out there. Bernadotte is a french name and the E at the end is silent. The german admiral's name is Karl Dönitz, not Donitz.
Yet another great video, keep up the great work guys!
Greatest betrayal in history? Have you not heard of Benedict Arnold???
Benedict Arnold: Sure, he was a traitor, but he returned to the fold in the end.
I never knew himmler betrayed Hitler at the end of the war. You learn something new everyday
das ist der schlimmste verrat von allen!
Ah, history is such a great topic to learn from, too bad most people don't want to learn about it though. Oh well, more knowledge for us.
Ja
18:32 If I hadn't finished my coffee, I'd spit it out the second I heard you said, "President Eisenhower".
Himmler wanted to negotiate with President Eisenhower? Did he have a time machine? I don't want to be pedantic but that is too big a flub to overlook.
Once you become president I think you are always called president. Or am I totally wrong? Usually they say president whatever, but they usually stipulate, not yet president. So it’d be negotiated with president Eisenhower, who was only a general here.
Nicely produced series!
Helps to be a pure sociopath to kill indiscriminately and not give a damn about anything other than yourself.
annette fournier ok
wrong, he did not do it for him self.he did it for something he felt was greater then him self and later felt that he made the greatness even greater.this will compel a man to do anything, because he must, because he is.
i am not great, my cause is great, but if i sacrifice my self to it it will be greater.this is wat drives good and bad men to do evil.from Nazi, to C.I.A. torchier er to suicide bomber to Stalin.
SoY_FooD perfectly decribed 😗😗
SoY_FooD and some time the cause is truly great
but how do u know the difference?u don't.that is the danger.
I enjoyed the video. I especially enjoyed the part where Himmler died!
I love these videos so much!
7:40 "...brushed aside the internal threat from Strasser" Impressive simplification of a major event. There is no single-arm-outstretched emoji so I'll improvise with -
My great great grandfather was the cook in the same regiment as Himmler during WW1
James Reilly .....
Gene Hollon He did yell at him for holding up the chow line.
Kane Hearst ... Himmler wasn't in ww1 . He was attempting to be a chicken farmer at the time... Failed miserably at that too.
Chriss Cevert Yes he was lad, you can find millions of sources telling you so
The greatest betrayals never end with a suicide. The greatest betrayals are those that nobody notices until well after the status quo has been turned on its ear.
Love your work btw
Himmler was such a worm
