The Site of Hitler's Bunker
Vložit

- In early 1945, as Allied armies advanced on Berlin and Nazi Germany lay in ruins, Hitler and his staff retreated to a bunker complex behind the former Reich Chancellery. He stayed there for two months. It was here that, as the Soviet army tightened its noose on the capital, Hitler and Eva Braun, his wife of less than 48 hours, committed suicide on April 30, 1945. A week later, the war in Europe was over. There's nothing here except for a simple info board with a detailed cutaway illustration of the bunker complex plus a timeline tracing its history and ultimate fate.

Such a shame they destroyed the fuhrerbunker. It could have been a great place to educate people about WW2.
gr3nax it’s not that they don’t want people to know, everyone knows hitler’s story, it’s because Germany wants to distance itself on the other side of infinity from the horrible tragedy’s that happened because of their country, to the point where making a game based in world war 2, showing anything even close to nazism, and distributing it in Germany, could get you thrown in prison
They don’t want it to become a neonazi worship place
SmythFan94 By destroying history?
And a little room to learn about hitlet
Yeah, a lot of bunkers were closed. In Normandy all the entrances to the bunkers were blocked and others destroyed. None the less amazing area.
This angered his father who punished him severely
oversimplified
Scaredd oversimplified lol
This comment angered his father, who punished him severely
@@cojita1414 Dude uncool
Hahhahaahahahahha
is there a way into the bunker? There must be a hidden door no one found near those buildings.
The Russians destroyed most of the bunker. But there is probably some parts still there but it’s probably full of water with no entrance doors to get in.
No, Germany dug it up and totally demolished it. Only the foundation and a few walls remain under ground.
No I’m there now, it was completely destroyed and filled in with soil to hide it
All you would find is rubble
@Beni Atanasov omg storage?
As soon as I get there I would get my shovel and start digging to find amazing history
Please don't do that.
With a medal detector and my garden shovel.

If I wanted to get sent to prison in Germany, I’d just sing their national anthem or look at WWII with an unbiased eye
Dont worry,hundreds or thousand years from now a future archeologist will dig it out.
Like what they have done or on how they found the ruins of pompei.
Or find Hitlers skull
I'd have my bar mitzvah there. I'd even pay... well, not full price.
Oh you're jewish alright
shalom, we rule the germans now.
I'd spit on the ground the moment I skip the billboard. Ffffff Hitler

On one hand I complety understand why germany want to pretend like this never happend, but on the other hand its important to eductate the future generations to make sure this never happens again
It will
@@ssg9offical Is that so?
Making sure this never happens is another way of saying: allied dictatorship, Zionist propaganda and Demoncracy (all of which are destroying the world) should be forever.
But I highly doubt OP has the brain capacity to realize that.
Steve great video! thanks for sharing you experience...your words and perception was enough!
I wonder if there is a door in one of the buildings that would allow you to enter the bunker?? Oh the possibilities.
The. Russians destroyed most of the bunker. There my be parts of it still under ground but it’s prob full of water
Germany dug it up and completely destroyed it.
No, the bunker is demolished for like 99,9%. Only a few walls and the foundation remain burried.
It was emptied by Russians and later Americans that took their souvenirs…
Does the bunker still exsit. Where is the entrance
Su Amigo El Ilegal it was destroyed.
They destroyed it so I won’t become a pilgrimage site for neonazis
To my knowledge they just closed it and covered it over the German government has recently thought of we opening it for educational purposes
Keith Mahoney Nope, after the war the Soviets dug it all up & destroyed pretty much everything
Buryed deep within the earth to prevent horrors of the past returning
why they never film inside his bunker.. it would be good to see and educational wise too
The bunker doesn't exist anymore. It was mostly demolished in the 1980s.
Well they cant just reveal the bunker to the public with all the historical facts they dont want you to know

Can you please make a video about the Amazon Rain forest, I wish to learn more about the jungle. Please..
Is it still under there or collapse?
one more thing,Rick ,did you go to the "olympische Dorf" 30km west of berlin?.
its not so famous ,but very interesting.
I'd love to go there and see a piece of the bunker I'm a huge history fan but they probably destroyed it
Can't delete History, it happened
Even though he's a bad guy. Even though all of them wants to erase his history. But he becomes an immortality. Still and until the end of the world history will speak about him.
Thank you bringing this bunker. Keep it Super Up Sir Ji. Love from India.
Does it still have the oven near by?
I wonder exactly how close the Soviets were to that bunker when Hitler died. I know they were battling for the Reichstag (now the Bundstag) at the time. How long would it take to walk from the bunker to the Bundstag?
it's about a 10 minute walk
The previous day the russians already breached into the diplomatic district of Berlin and took over the ministry of home affairs, when Hitler committed suicide the red army was already fighting its way through the Wilhelmstrasse which leads straight to the Reichskanzlei and the bunker underneath it, they were about 500 meters away from it.
But there were 10.000 SS soldiers of the Nordland and Charlemagne divisions and a few Tiger II tanks left of the SS Hermann vom Salza and SS 503 divisions so it took the russiams a while to pass through
@@riccardomallardo7779 10000 of which Civilians & children & women included . They all denied surrender decided to fight till death and stayed loyal to Fürher. Hitler also had a 100% chance to escape from the bunker with Hana Reitch a women fighter jet pilot was devotedly reached out hitler with her plane and to help him escape. It was hitler denied to leave his beloved Berlin and chose to die with people. His last words to Hana in the bunker was “ it was necessary I should die for my people. But my spirit will raise from the grave and the world will know I was right “
It could have been used for European headquarters offices for Jean-Claude Juncker, in the bunker.
I thought you'll say Jean-Claude Van Damme LOL XD

They shouldn't have demolished it.
You don’t know how it works? You can’t build your puppet state on top of a former state. The one is completely eradicated so the other one can be built in its place. There is no 🇩🇪 under National Socialism, and there is no National Socialism under 🇩🇪
They key is to understand what 🇩🇪 truly is, and what National Socialism was truly about.
We are going there in 2 days
It is really sad when a hero dies
He is not a hero.
@@tehjaunamcdonald2218 he is bruh
@@ArkanReacher how is he?
Hitler caused his own downfall by his arrogance and stubbornness and refusing to listen to people around him.
So that's where it all ended for the world's most misunderstood sweetheart, eh?
Can we dip it out?
For general information some of the Hitler bunker tunnels still exist but they are sealed off to the public under the car park there has been talk of RE opening them for educational purposes
It’s kind of true what you are saying but not entirely , the bunker system was partially destroyed and they built the parking lot on top of it simply . Many videos out there show the demolition of it.
Their intention was to make it permanently inaccessible by the way !! And they did so .
The bunker complex is gone from history. If the Allied protectorate government in Berlin ever falls, then the people could dig it up and they would probably find remnants of it. As long as the allied protectorate regime in Berlin is in control, you will never be able to do that.
At the end of the day you can't get rid of a geographical location. It has, and will always have, coordinates on this planet's surface.
Didn't the Berlin Wall pass over this spot
understandable
They should make a museum out of the underground bunker. And let people cursing at his photo.
American Genocide of Indian's, Spainish Genocide of Aztec's, British Genocide of Boer's, Armenian Genocide. British Genocide of Australian Aboriginal's. Goe's to show history is written by the victor.
All history is allied propaganda.
Their Soul remains over there still
These ppl standing in the midst of the greatest tour guide on the planet and oblivious!
It should be restored and turned into a museum.
He would not be very happy that they are on his property
I saw a documentary in German, there is a hidden door to the bunker. By the way non German historians say, he and Eva Brown died divorced of old age in Argentina. he did not commit suicide.
No . The one who escaped to Argentina was captain Otto skorseny who received the highest order of merit in German military by Hitler who was also known as the dangerous man of Europe by the enemy ally’s. Eva braun and Hitler decided to die at the bunker and Hitler gave Eva the special cyanide and he shot himself in front of his mother’s picture. And he had ordered to take both of their body to be burnt and buried very next to the bunker.
He escaped to Argentina
The bunker is indestructible
If u’re recording through an all digital signal path,won’t it lack some warmth?
My uncle was in Germany after the war. He said they would go to the bathroom in the alleys. Then someone would clean it up.
Sounds like Washington, D.C. today
davidpar2 how?
Must’ve been East Germany.
That sounds like every major American city
rick you rock
History should be as neutral as possible even though we know the victors write the history. Just as we preserve details of wars centuries and millennia ago we don't really judge the participants as we do recent wars. It needs to be documented and explained as fact and not repressed for personal comfort.
Do not accuse the german people for what the nazis did. We had nazis in Sweden, Norway, Denmark too.
No, the german people knew what was happening, and wanted it. They won't be excused.
If I get there I would dig in and revel the secret
Ok and I will get my camera with it let's go
no you wouldn't
Germany has to hate this tourist site. I'm sure they would rather forget about it
It's not about forgetting, right behind that location is a huge holocaust memorial. And in the video you can see an information sign about the Führerbunker. It‘s just to depreciate Hitler. A public toilet there would be even nicer than an ugly parking lot but you can‘t have all.
i like it when you said they think he commited suicide
he didn't commit suicide
@@gauravladha5465 if it is hitler you are talking about, we actually dont know if he did or not. Maybe he went to Argentina by a german U-Boat or he really commited suicide.
“Guys he definitely killed himself, and certainly didn’t escape to Argentina like all those other high ranking Nazis. No need to question it.”
Hitler definitely died in Berlin in 1945. How exactly we will never know. Berlin was a war zone, completely destroyed and in total ruin.
@@gauravladha5465 He and his wife Eva braun committed suicide . Infact everybody in the bunker committed suicide except *Hana Reitsch* A Air Force pilot of German Army. Devoted to her Fürher she flew to the bunker to help escape Hitler which hitler strictly denied and suggested everyone in bunker should leave ordering soon after him & his wife’s death should burn and burry the body and evacuate within a hour which was his last official order . His last words in bunker was “ it is necessary I should die for my people. But my spirit will rise from the grave and the world will know I was right “ Hana died at 1979 and she was only the person alive to confirm the final words of hitler and also his last photograph of hitler standing in front of his bunker
Where zum Teufel ist my bunker!?
Do you smell what The Rock is cookin?
rick did you get my email..someone from your office said they would forward it to you...
The Rock says he'll send it to him personally next week.
No he didn't. He escaped to Argentina.
Imagine if the next germany leader is on WW3, they lost the war when the leader is on Hitler bunker and he died at the same place Hitler shot himself because they lost a war
Very sad.
I think is foolish that Berlin took that decision I get that Hitler was a horrible person but history is history and it as it’s own form of art I would of paid to visit
Why did his pfp look like Gordon Ramsay from afar
why did he commit suicide
Because he saw his gas bill.
@@JakeT420 He escaped
why do you think?
It's my bunkar

Stunning
it'a a beautiful carpark right?
people are visiting@@VinnyCarwash-js8op
To me, this is German history.Please do not destroy this. This is a dark, dirty time, but it belongs to our history. Please do not destroy it. It belongs to us, the people of the future!
So it is true.
Quick and to the point, I like it
I smoked weed on his birthday cause its 420 on his birthday
i can't like this video because its at 420 likes lol

he did,nt die there
harley gidcumb You better provide evidence to back your claim. And conspiracy blogs aren’t evidence.
it was women body in his grave
@@mroceans8336 The FBI had sollid information back then that Hitler escaped to argentina by u-boat. And various eyewitness testamonies also confirmed Hitler did NOT killed himself in the bunker. The skull fragment the Soviets claimed it belonged to hitler came back in DNA tests as belonging to a woman.
@@flipjenl9616 My bad i meant spain
@@konig-shiba6428 Yes thats very true.
He did not kill himself
Hi sir good evening t here is a Hitler's last bunker when they have sucide?
Hitler didn’t die in Germany , he migrated to Argentina and lived a normal life there!
From what I understand one of the main reasons they destroyed his bunker was because it became a "pilgramage" for neo nazis.
Tourists take pictures of lawn or parking? Hahaha
I know BMW and Mercedez ❤️ i love it a car
That is so boing
Wait a minute i see someone at germany with eagle flage and swaastika logo at his left hand and he have a mustache
April 30th of every year should be a Jewish Holiday. It's the day Adolph Hitler died -- today nobody names their children Adolph anymore -- LOL. If you're Jewish here's the story you should tall your friends: a Jewish astrologer was asked by Hitler 'When will I die?" And the Jewish astrologer said, "May you never die, but on whichever day you die will be a Jewish holiday." Lakhayim -- Vic Alexander, son of Nimrud Alexander who had the 1947 Resolution to create the State of Israel. He was the first CIA Director in 1906 at the age of 18.
Le Guerre.💀
That kinda that why adolf hitller was a kinda. Ad for
imagine destroying the world's greatest public toilet
Imagine getting offended by history.
@@liminal9207 it’s because they are on the wrong side of it.
Feel free to spit
I dont believe he died there. Too many opportunities to escape and sightings in Argentina and Paraguay. History channel went to his houses there.
Berlin was surrounded by the red army
Everyone wanted him dead, if they didn't find him, they would've hunted him
Soviet destroyed it after the war
Are you kidding? You don't know history very well then. I suggest you study more.
Germany wanted to wipe its history forever, and start a new one (im sure it wont be as great)
They should have made a memorial for him of solid gold, of what could have been. It’s sad Hitlers vision didn’t work out. Maybe someday.
Yes
Virgin
And maybe you're Hitler's Reincarnation.
If you are then I'll stop you.
and I'll stop you wherever you do.
Because I am The Best There Is, The Best There Was and The Best There Ever Will Be.
I feel like you’re using sarcasm, lol.
Lolwut
Should build a big public toilet on the site.
Why did you hate history so much. I mean you can hate hitler but everyone love history.
History is history...May b good or bad...But such a shameful act u destroyed it...My goodness ...
Such bad
very sad and poignant story ,, take a lesson from the German Nazi story ...
really? You must have been at the top of your class.
He didn't kill himself he went to Argentina
♥️♥️
He's dead, but didn't die in '45
Everyone wanted him dead, if they didn't find him, they would've hunted him
Im sure the Soviets would have been delighted if they capture Hitler alive. Considering many Soviets and Allied Powers lost their lives protecting Europe from the Nazi's
Hero😂😂
Hitler escaped his bunker
Everyone wanted him dead, if they didn't find him, they would've hunted him
I would pee on it!!!!
@Brian Price any day?
Putin's bunker is next.
On the contrary, he will finish the job that Hitler couldn’t.
He wasnt any worse than pelosi
Hitler not dead on bungker..because Hitler dead on Surabaya indonesia
