Ilse Koch: The Bitch of Buchenwald
Vložit
- čas přidán 14. 06. 2024
- During the Holocaust, Ilse Koch lived in the Buchenwald concentration camp with her husband. She would order the deaths of prisoners at-will, and even enjoyed watching people being tortured and killed. Her home was filled with momentos made from human skin. Ilse Koch just may have been responsible for more deaths than your average serial killer. She is considered to be one of the most evil women that ever lived.

Damn. You must be pretty bad when the Nazis tell you you're going too far.
@@chance2413 ... so you really think that it was cool to be in a concentration camp dude?. I'm just looking at the way you laid out all of your words and that's what it seems like you're trying to say? You think losing your freedom and all of your personal property was okay to go to a concentration camp because they have movies and snacks and swimming pools and little trinkets that you mentioned? You think that makes everything okay? Does that make you feel better thinking about it that way?
Yes I was just thinking that. Didn't she get locked up
@@Skull_838 would you have liked to be a prisoner in a concentration camp controlled by the nice Nazis? You think you would have been safe? You think you would have a good story to tell right now about being locked up in a Nazi concentration camp? Would you say that the Nazis wear your friends after you got out of there concentration camp?..
I think the fact that they stole all that money from the government didn't put them in a good light. The torture was just an extra misuse of resources to add on top.
@@josephdominics5935 I wasn't saying they were angels. But I wouldn't like to be in any concentration camp whether it was a American/Soviet one or German. But no country is good all governments have done bad stuff believe it or not.
The story about her youngest son is honestly so sad. He wanted to know who his mother was despite who she was and she took advantage of him.
well duh, she was clearly a sadistic psychopath so what did you expect her to do?
In the photo of the prisoners standing in rows you can see two men supporting another who can barely stand. To help care for another person in such a brutal environment is a beautiful act of humanity.
@@dr2599 she got hers in the end. I don't call monsters like that human.
You should really evaluate your life decisions when even the Nazi Party thinks you are evil
I'm honestly shocked that they had any standards at all.
Alphata well said
It's almost like Ozzy Osbourne saying you might have a drug probl.
No s*** right just when you think you can't be shocked anymore
Because of democray you have to learn what there actual are said in the "news" you read. Nobody talks abot "nazi thinks you are evil". The point of the trial against her husband was fraud and test there had not been requested. Because of war and very strange attitude to justice in the nazi regime he was killed for fraud. please notice killed for fraud not killed for being evil.. Next read this carefull. "you are a retardo". Can you understand that?
I love how Simon makes biographics about vey bad people, too. Gives a more realistic view on the human condition.
Vey
İbrahim Gürcan Kıvcı - Because they were human beings too. With passions/goals, personal lives with family & friends, and differing opinions on the world. Not alienating them as “inhuman personifications of the Devil” that nobody can relate too. Doing the opposite means the people are less likely too see how evil anybody or themselves can become.
It's the benality of evil.
It made me wonder what could take place inside the human consciousness to allow this to occur. How would things need to be skewed and mis-prioritized in the mind to make personal gratification and advancement so much more important than anything resembling compassion.
@@Ajourneyofknowing what the hell does that mean?? They opiomozed evil.. they as are others are heavily influenced by the devil..he exists as does God
My great-uncle was taken as a POW to one of these camps. He managed to escape under a pile of dead bodies when they were disposed of. From what I understand the bodies were transported by rail, thrown away, and he escaped under the bodies.
He ran to the nearest embassy. Little did he know, his cousin would have liberated him in three days.
That would be a good movie
@@el_tdg It would be. Unfortunately, he passed before I heard the story firsthand. It was relayed by other members of the family. He was eventually sent to Japan, but he didn't like to talk about what he saw there. If you were outside grilling and the meat even remotely smelled cooked, he would toss everything into the garbage and make you start over again. In a way, I wish I knew what happened to him.
@@TheWolfElder damn man, sorry to hear that, i hope he is at peace
@@snake3516 I assume regarding the grilled meat thing, it was daily practice in concentration camps to burn dead bodies, I'd guess that smells pretty close to grilling a steak. If you've seen Schindlers List you may remember the scene where it starts "snowing", that in fact was the ash of killed people that went up through the chimney of the crematory.
Jesus Christ
As a teen in the late 1970s, I attended a talk given by a former Buchenwald prisoner who brought with him a good number of things made from human skin. - Lamp shades, belt buckles, wallets and such. I was haunted by the sight for weeks. The inhumanity of it all. Its one thing to read about it in a book, but quite another to see it with your own eyes.
It haunted you because a lot of it is made up SPECIFICALLY FOR THAT PURPOSE.
It was BS nonsense you were shown !!!!!
Somehow that stuff disappeared after the photo was taken right after the war 1945? then shows up again in the 70's....then disappears again?
Was she sadistic and evil, of course.
Once a person does some nasty things, you can exaggerate the story until it reaches the moon, then keep adding all sorts of garbage to it, and no one will ever question it. Especially anything dealing with the Holocaust.
The average person walking the street is not too smart and believes everything at face value.
Were there/ did she have shrunken heads and a LAMP MADE OF HUMAN SKIN REAL ?????????
EXTREMELY UNLIKELY
In my imagination, it was real.

Comment of the week.
You got hearted by Simon for a fucking pun. I love it.
😂😂😂😂👍🏼
You must be pretty evil if the Nazi take you to court for your atrocities
More less for the money spending than something else i guess
@@tkohout87 I agree, because we know they deffinately did not care about the people
Earl Robins on crew se it was for the money her husband spent , that is why he was executed and she didnt have any punishment at all just after the war ... i read some artical about it way back .
Indeed!! My only complaint about the video is that it went quickly from "sweet girl who everybody liked" to her suddenly fancying criminals and wanting to run a concentration camp. I wanted to know more about what happened in her late teens and young adulthood to change her.
@@jazzerson7087 probably the apex summit of "daddy issues"
The fact that I’ve never heard of her before is appalling. She needs to be more well known and well hated.
how come?
The made up fairy stories of the shrunken head, and items made of human skin are infamous.
All these horrible items that should of been kept, when they were already in the hands of western military people that would show how sadistic some of the Nazis COMPLETELY DISAPPEARED.
This tell you some of the stories about here and what happened is extremely exaggerated.
Was she evil, are the stories around her exaggerated...very much so.
If something is extremely over the top and hard to believe...its because some of it is exaggerated and made up.
You are absolutely right. Society tends to put the spotlight on people who it doesn’t belong on and while I dont think she deserves attention we all deserve to know her name and know the evil things she did.
I agree in cases where I think there are very important lessons to be learned. The crimes of the Hitler and the Nazis are very much an example of that. Perhaps though, a proper punishment for a purely sadistic for sadistic's sake woman like her would be to be forgotten. All her insane and manipulative and cruel actions, all the power she once had means nothing anymore, and no one will ever care. I'm not saying I necessarily hold this stance, but the thought occurred to me as I read your comment and thought it was worth pondering.
Maybe you're a little bit too full of yourself and have an ego. There's enough hate in the world to dwell on the past. I suggest you look at modern day Governments and other societies.
@@Dman3827No, its foolish to ignore history. Don't like it don't bother commenting
Tell me EVIL doesn't exist. This beast was the personification of EVIL.
She was most likely a clinical psychopath or sociopath who, because of Nazi doctrine and culture, was enabled to rationalise and "justify" her actions and behaviours.
Lots of people like this live among us who repress these extremely dark desires. The smarter ones will channel this energy into something productive and become successful. Others would enter a life of crime, depending on how privileged their life circumstances are.
We all have these "dark triad" traits. Narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy. Some are more prominent than in others, others repress it but it always lurks in our subconscious. It is in our innate nature and this is how homosapiens eradicated Neanderthals thousands of years ago. The Nazis collectively induced a mass psychosis over the German masses to surface their dark nature of humanity. This can happen at any point again in the present day. Many people forget the intricacies of history and thus never learn from it, dooming humanity to repeat the same mistakes.
It's not even every psychopath or sociopath, either. People with sociopathy who don't go on to become murderers and monsters, often make for excellent lawyers, salespeople, and politicians. They're very good at knowing how to manipulate and explain things to people in a way that makes the agreeable, and if used for decent ends that's excellent - you have to have a little bit of coldness if you go into certain fields. It's when its used for horrific ends that we get the next Ted Bundy.
Imagine this being your grandma. But she hung herself. HAHAH
how is it the most evil nazi women were also all physically ugly af
I feel sorry for her children. Especially her youngest son, he was manipulated by a master when all he ever wanted was something she was incapable of giving.
Love was she was incapable of giving and receiving love. She manipulated herself out of love 😮 deep
She is the definition of a monster
@JOE BLOGGS No, it's her
Yes
Nah she was just misunderstood
@@norgepalm7315 how was she misunderstood?
Argeed
I've been to Buchenwald and learned about her horrible acts right where they all took place, walking in the same places that she walked. In the museum there, they even had photos and actual things that she had covered in the tattooed skin of the prisoners. I had never felt so sick in my life. As disgusting as it is, her story needs to be known in order to show the cruelties that can happen in this world so that we can do our best to prevent them; so thanks for putting it out there.
I feel bad for her son, he was a child and the guilt wasn’t his to bear.
I have never understood sadism on any level. I think she was a completely evil person.
It’s becsuse drugs don’t get them high enough. They need to see other ppl in pain to keep them sane. That’s their drug without actually drugs if that makes sense.
@@dejstoney What you said makes complete sense. I agree with what you have said. It just terrifies me that anyone can take pleasure of any kind in others pain.
Most people are sadistic, it is everyday. Look how much people want prisoners to suffer in prison. Humans are sick.
@@aeris2001 Prisoners are nothing short of animals and they should be treated as such. Rather than having them sit in a cell, offering nothing to society, would it not be better to use them as human subjects or slaves. Then at least they offer something back to society.
@@robertlogie5766 Nonhuman animals are completely innocent. Sadism and true cruelty exists only among humans. Other animals only kill to survive, not for pleasure or greed.
I hate it when people say, that someone should be "treated like an animal". Think about this statement. You don't tolerate cruelty against humans but it's still okay for you to torture and kill other beings which are completely innocent and helpless?
My great grandfather was taken to see buchenwald by the US army. They took all the officers in his unit to see the camp to be witnesses. He had horrible PTSD until the day he died (as in he would sleep on the lawn all night when he returned home because he couldn't handle sleeping inside from the war) and I don't doubt for a moment witnessing that godforsaken place didn't have a big impact
My grandad was one of the soilders to free dachau and he had nightmares right until his death 2 years ago. Over 7 decades and it still affected him.
I have NO PITY.
Every German who willing or passively approved of the atrocities of the Nazi Concentration Camp machine, especially members of the military, should have been forced to see what happened and have been mentally tortured for the rest of their lives.
I've never heard of a PTSD that makes people afraid to sleep indoors.
My dad was one of the liberating troops and I have a video of him speaking about that horrible experience. He was interviewed on a public access t.v. program in Cincinnati. Many years ago he used to leave public speaking about the experience to one of his army buddies, but that friend eventually died. My dad is now 97 years old, very active, and mentally in great shape.
He now goes wherever he is invited to speak, often to Holocaust Memorial events, because he is appalled at those who denied what happened and he has said that he would not want to die without saying something that should have been said by someone who was there.
Ugly in soul, ugly in life.
Certainly, no beauty by any stretch of the imagination.
Stupendous that such a plain woman, purely on the basis of sex, could get away with so much evil for so long.
Yeah their is a real Double-Standard for this stuff.
Women who Rape Men are overlooked a lot.
Women are equal to men
"any man who even looked at her or was uncontrollably aroused was taken away and shot..."
the death toll decreased rapidly when she took her clothes off
"A buxom redhead that thought a lot of herself."....so we can presume there were no mirrors in her house?🤔
She probably wouldn't have thought so much of the way you look either. That's how Nazis came to power. How unfortunate you emulate their behavior.
@jamiewkfarrell d1netta or whatever her name is (I think) might be a little peanut butter and jealous (of a nazi). Damn shame. I like your comment!
@@rookthetexan8343 Do explain how I have emulated Nazi behavior?
@@d1Netta Oh I don't know.....after watching a documentary on atrocity, finding a public forum to ridicule the way someone looks. Nevermind what that woman did, YOUR only criticism was the way she looked. Not very clever, primate. You might as well slap on a red wig and stare in the mirror.
@@rookthetexan8343 And in turn you attack my appearance. So I guess you are emulating Nazi Behavior too. Oh and I like the primate descriptor. Whats the matter? Not man enough to say what you really want to call me? Thank you for confirming my suspicions. 👍🏽
I once had the pleasure of meeting Arek Hersch a few years ago, he came into my school to share his life story. If anyone deserves to be called an inspiration it is him. He has survived several concentration camps, ghettos, death camps and many other horrors. He has lost his entire family and seen things i couldnt possibly imagine yet he still has faith in humanity. He is still one of the kindest people i have ever met! We hugged for a few minutes while crying, i will never forget that day.
"Survived death camps". Many such cases...
My grandad drove one of the Munich defence lawyers to the trials shortly after the war and he watched as she was sentenced. He always said that when you looked into her eyes there was nothing behind them but evil
I can visualise Ilse at the front counter with her three kids demanding to see the Manager.
Now that you mention it- I can totally picture that XD
Maybe her middle name was Karin... (Karen)
"Ich bin want to sprech to ein manager!"
... I am so sorry to every single German-speaker that had to witness that. That was bad.
Still not as bad as Nazi Karen here. But pretty bad.
@@ThePhantomSafetyPin I möchte mit dem Manager sprechen

How about a video about Irma Grese? She was just as bad, maybe worse. She served in Belsen and Auschwitz and was known as "the Blond Beast," among other epithets.
I second that, Irma Grese and Ilse Koch deserve each other
Another vote for this too.
You got my vote
There were many infamous female Nazis. I'm pretty sure Grese was the one that when it came time for her hanging, the executioner couldn't perform the task because of how beautiful he thought she was. He ended up doing it though. They were all beyond sadistic.
She was also known as 'the Hyena of Auschwitz', she was if anything even more depraved than Koch
Wow, that's insanely mind-blowing. The cruelty, the manipulation, the unspeakable horror.
And to think, without historians we may easily forget the darkness our species possesses.

The way Karl's downfall played out is deliciously ironic:
Karl's immediate superior happened to be a former patient of one of the doctors he killed* to cover up his syphilis treatment, and when he learned about it, he launched an investigation. The officer was so astonished by the level of Karl's embezzlement actions that he started going after other camp commandants, including Amon Goethe, whom he quickly tossed into a looney bin.
* Said doctor had also been protecting inmates from being killed on several occasions. Wish I could remember his name.
The Koch Mansion... *uncontrollable laughter*
Possibly pronounced " Coke "
...wait for it... Wonder how much caulk went into that mansion's bathrooms?
+Jay Luis : No, it’s “cock”. Close enough if you are trying to translate it in English, because English speakers struggle with the German “CH”.
It’s why they pronounced Reich as “Rye-k”. I don’t fault them for doing it, but you can’t make the same sounds in English as you do in German. They’re different languages. For instance... it’s not Buchenwald like “w” in “wall”. That’s actually a “v” sound in English. The “CH” is, once again, a sound English speakers goof up.
Long story short... he didn’t do too bad on that name. It’s actually the equivalent of the English word “cook”. In case you’re wondering. 😉
Lol 😂

Simon you are doing SO WELL on the pronounciations, thank you so much for the effort you're putting in for us!!! ♡
I've been a critic of his pronunciation, but he has progressed a lot. As long as he makes an effort, fine by me. Appreciated, even.
No, the pronounciation is off most of the times.
I'm just happy about the way he pronounces their last names.
he's trying obviously, but Owe should be pronounced Oo-ver, not Ooooh as Simon kept saying :D
Jesus guys, German pronunciation isn't easy at all, in fact they don't have most of the sounds we do. Be thankful of him making these videos. He is obviously trying.
I can't imagine being in that time period. Just horrid, ppintless, sad. Forgive but never forget.
It's pretty shitty right now too if you're the wrong color or religion...
That's very true, Angela. Even if you're the right religion or color, sometimes you can be a victim too. The Nazis disliked anyone who wasn't part of their perfect Aryan race, or who didn't support it - that includes people who were the "perfect Aryan myth", too.
Every time you air stuff life this, I always feel completely enervated. Such evil in the form of humans is astounding. Thank you for this very difficult work.
Honestly, to call this "woman" a disgusting, evil monster is putting it very mildly. It's almost beyond understanding that people like her existed.
Great as usual! Please do Władysław Szpilman one day. A survivor of the Warsaw ghetto and the destruction of Warsaw that followed who managed to get back to his career as a pianist after the war and become one of the greatest pianists Poland has ever had. A truly amazing story that's largely forgotten.
Not quite forgotten. Adrian Brody got a freaking Oscar for his role as Szpilman in "The Pianist". He also is the youngest to ever take home the Best Actor Oscar and there was a huge documentary the Aires on the History Channel for months. No... Szpilman is not forgotten.
Love this show. Been watching you since today I found out. This format works! Keep up the good work!
She reminds me of my school bus driver when I was a little kid. She was a mean and nasty woman too.

Subscribed. I feel like I'm going to spend the rest of the evening glued to this channel. CZcams really is better than anything on TV these days.
This was the Best of many. Thank you. I do enjoy your videos
Ilse Koch was a classical narcissist - a narcissist who sadly got power to live out her fantasies.
Nah she was just German. They committed atrocities and brutalities because they COULD and took pleasure from it (Schadenfreude) not because they suffered by a medical condition. That is an excuse IMO
I love this channel. I am a big history buff and I am interested in the lives of these people. You cover their whole stories without having to make it a 2 to 3 hour History channel presentation. I have been binge watching these stories for about a couple of days. I subscribed. I cannot wait until the next biography.
My great grandfather liberated Buchenwald. We have pictures of him attending worship service after liberation. I couldn’t imagine what he went though let alone the people imprisoned there

@@cindytomato the hell?
Sister C You’re drunk Sister, go home.
Yes, they were actually 2 young teenage Dutch sisters and an older Dutch University student.
Hannie Schaft, Freddie Oversteegen and Truus Oversteegen were the names of the women.
You mean German soldiers? A majority of soldiers were conscripts and weren’t even in/supported the party. Calling them that is so disrespectful to the innocent ones who fought because they had to. My family didn’t support it, but my grandfathers brother had still been conscripted. Don’t say that, please. Just because a party is in power doesn’t mean the army all supports it. In the usa, the democratic party is in power, are they democrat soldiers? My point stands.

Incredible work as always. Do more on the monsters throughout history please.
"For people who were poor and uneducated, fascism seemed like a solution to the country's problems." It appears nothing has changed.
Please correct me if you think I'm wrong here, by using actual examples or evidence
But the only actual clear Principles of Fascism that I see being pushed are those of the Far Left Activists: the principle that due to a people are not allowed free opinion.
They believe that if they find someone's views distasteful (& I think they have usually misrepresented them, as I know this happens), they try to create a society where "wrong think" means you can't open a bank account, receive money or use public spaces online.
What "fascism" are you talking about? Is it Donald Trump? If so, could you please give an examples, because I have yet to find one.
Please not that we are often given false info by our Media if they are against someone or threatened by them.
E.g. The claim that Trump said racist thinks about Mexicans. The original footage shows it was not referring to all Mexicans migrants, the context is illegals.
White Supremacists at Trump events quickly get kicked out.
So I think it is more about an addiction to creating drama & feeding off it (both of which Trump has been elected on, IMO).
Its kind of wrong though: fascism was largely a phenomenon of the middle class rather than the poor.
While the poor and uneducated can be a target, it's very dangerous to assume that only they can fall for this. And of course, it's not only right-wing fascism that can scoop the working man up, Stalin did the same after having Trotsky killed and committed horrible atrocities under the guise of working for the common man. Extremism is a very tempting ideology for people who feel upset, and I can see disturbing parallels in today's America for sure. Anyone reading this may take this as they see fit, I know who and what I'm talking about, but I'm curious to see how many people get butthurt over it.

Very powerful story told in excellent fashion. I doubt I could have listened to this horrific take from anyone other than Mr Whistler. The end was truly a fitting end for such a monsterous woman. Supremely selfish til the very end. I feel pity for the youngest child that she used him and his innocence. Thank you for the story and the emotion tied to the telling. I don't know how you do it.

Don't worry, we hate you too. Especially when you wonder why this is demonitzed. You must take a sick pleasure or a hard on in human suffering.
Yes CZcams is really a liberal run fruitcake nut job, even firearm "historic" videos re demonetized. Absolutely clueless as what is valuable and what is not, they will rather push out waste wasting and life sucking monetized "fortinite" videos to keep the majority brain dead and self absorvvbed

Damn, this lady has the meanest rbf I've ever seen. She didn't fall from heaven she climbed from hell instead. How she had any power over men is beyond me, she looks so scary.
Who thumbs down this? Most interesting new channel on CZcams. The list of historical figures that are on this channel are incredibly interesting with the production/ narrative is TOP NOTCH!
It’s a brilliant Chanel.Naration is brilliant.
Maybe because they push the lies of human-leather made objects. The object that is talked about most often (Lampenschirm) was examined and it was proven that it wasn't made of human skin.
I'll assume they only read the title, which does cointain an ad-unfriendly word and decided that the video is useless
I just discovered this channel. I watched the Oscar Wilde doc and loved it.
Damn i feel a binge watch coming on.
These videos are interesting& informative. Thank u for this channel.
I'm a fan and subscriber for life.
Another great video Sir
I love your videos

Just a note, „Gnade“ is essentially the same word as „mercy“ so „Gnädige Frau“ could be translated as „Woman with mercy“
omfg
It means merciful/gracious woman.
Today in "How to make google think I'm a serial killer", now I'm sat googling how to shrink skulls. Thanks. My search history totally needed this.
Hilarious 😂😂😂
Yea, mine too... Hey, one time someone listed some minerals and stuff on a comment. My search history now has the ingredients for crystal meth XD
Thank you!
I remember having to do a paper on the horrors of the Holocaust and did a whole section on her. And I took so many breaks after reading what she did. It was so horrific to read, I cried throughout the process.
Congrats, you made a paper on a Billy Wilder script
What's the creepy piano music you use? I love it.
Also keep up the fantastic work :D
To me, that sounds a lot like Tom Waits' song "Tango Til They're Sore".
“And there’s Marla Hooch. What a hitter!”
One issue I have is there was so much focus on the human skin thing, with there barely being any evidence that it was actually skin. Why tell it as though it were fact, only to later say "well actually there wasn't any evidence except a few witness testimonies"?
Great video.
Amazing to think even the nazis thought she was going too far
Do Ned Kelly. A lot of Australian culture is based around him.
Excellent work, have you considered doing an episode on Irma Grese?
very interesting...and well told.
