Hi, id like to apologise I have had to cancel my membership, my appreciation for your channel is unchanged but I'm afraid the Kung flu had given me no option but to cut back on things, as soon as things pick up Ill be back(Bit of Arnie for ya lol), as always I'm subscribed, thank you again for your hard work and great content.

Imagine his final court ruling:
"Crime: Attempting a peace agreement
Sentence: Life in prison"
Irving actually read out what Hitler had promised for a peace deal with the British, which was giving back western europe mainly and promising to offer assistance to the British empire if anybody would attack it, but when you read about Roosevelt and his financial henchmen going around Britain trying to steal all the money away and eat and personally saying they wanted the British Empire to collapse who was really our ally ? Britain went on the decline the peace deal for siding with the people which personally spoke within their meeting of destroying them (Americans) at the cost of millions of more europeans and the Empire which had kept innovation globalised. Oh and Hess was Jewish btw.
Big punishment for following the wrong person. Hopefully CZcams never be like that.
I think he kind of looks like Jim Carrey ? If Jim Carrey was British had a mustache and was a genius and not an actor
@@randomanimations1621 he is older so its the other way around. jim carrey would look like him if he had a mustache and acted like a brit yes he would.
He more wanted to talk the UK into joining their side than he wanted peace. He thought he had a good chance since the royal family is more German than anything else and even changed their original German last name of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha to the current one of Windsor because of anti German sentiments in the UK.
What a wholesome history about the power of friendship and loyalty
this ain't MLP!

Hess = straight-haired pinkie pie? đ€
A prisoner who may have damaging information hanging themselves while supposedly being watched very carefully. Sounds familiar.
Lol I know right... sounds verryyy familiar!
I wish much of these secrets were just released... but who knows, one was that it would upset Soviet Russia on his release. Then again, from his family to others bits of information, he would not bend the knee so to say... and could have been a threat, if what he knew, ever came to light to contradict current understanding (whether true or not) it was right upto the end which says a lot.
President Trump?
Lol 'sounds familiar'
Do you mean Epst..... Oooooooooh, ok were being vague about it. Gotcha
I laughed out loud at the thought of Hess not understanding what the Scotsman was saying đ€Ł
Same. I live in Scotland and can guarantee that the closer you get to Glasgow, the less able everyone (including many Scots) are at understanding the local dialect!
To my understanding he was an old drunk Scot, meaning that absolutely no-one could understand him (been there, tried that).
@@debbiehenri345 Glasgow? I've worked with guys from Aberdeen and Peter Head, and I couldn't understand a damn word!
Dunno about this. I know the Hamilton family and their accents are certainly not âbroadâ.
When I was 18, I took a trip to England and Scotland. My friend and I ended up in a pub in Edinburgh and as the night progressed and the people we met got drunker, our understanding of them got less and less. The Scottish accent got stronger and just smiled and nodded. Had a great time though.
This man's whole motivation for doing everything he does, Is Literally just "Please notice me, Hitler-kun~"
Hitler kum

UwU! Baka baka baka!!! (>
Notice me sensei!
That's what you get for trying to make peace.
This is one of my favorite stories out of world war II... Hess had never parachuted in his whole life and outfitting that plane the way he did was crazy no doubt but genius at the same time there's always that fine line đ
It's a bit; crazy when failing, genius when succeeding.
seen this one ... ? czcams.com/video/Iipsxj3hRpE/video.html
We know that there were some who supported Germany in Britain early in the war, so maybe not an utter nutter .
Hess: Im gonna go make peace with Britain without anyone knowing
Britian: peace. STRAIGHT TO JAIL
That's what happens when you play Monopoly :)
My dad was one of the last to see him in that Berlin prison he got a glimpse of him from a building nearby when serving in Berlin
Thatâs incredible to witness such history. I think it would be amazing to have your Dad record his own narrative of what he witnessed
@@amyoneelse he is very interesting he served for 15 years
@blahblahblah blah blah blah blah
@blahblahblah blah I saw him in the summer of '83. He was walking with a cane, with a hunched back. I saw him twice while on guard duty. One time it was raining and he was wearing a purple poncho with a matching umbrella. He walked to the edge of a wall, looked at me in the guard tower and turned around. The second time he waked directly beneath me in the guard tower and he was cursing or mumbling something unpleasant as he walked by. I don't know what he said, but he had an attitude that day. He looked like he was duck walking like a good Nazi, but it could have been his bad posture from old age. I am not aware of his son taking care of him, Guests were not allowed in the courtyard, although his wife visited him once a month. The main caretaker was a British man. They had a place in the courtyard that they would sit. It was a large stainless steel garden shed with a sliding glass door and 1,2 windows. I peeked inside and there was a table, couch, and chair with either a newspaper or a magazine on the top. I also recall a freestanding coat rack. Hess lived in a room, inside another bldg within the prison that was off limits to us. It would not have been tough to gain entry to the prison, the exterior walls were only 10-12 feet high. Although, we had M16's with 5 rounds in each guard tower, so it would have been bad news if someone tried. The courtyard was not well kept. It had grass and a lot of weeds. And a well worn path that was tread by Hess Hess ate rather well. There were 2 German women that cooked his meals as well as our own. the women told us that we ate the same food that he was served. It was pretty good, better than the chow hall. I was happy with it. My friend took pics of him. We were not suppose to do that so I decided to let him take the risk. He made the mistake of getting them developed at the Army Exchange and the pics he took there came back blank. I guess they were well aware of the scene and were told to delete them. It's a shame they were not mailed to the states for developing, no one would have recognized the scene or Rudy. Yes, he was the only prisoner. It was an interesting experience. We were there for one week and we swapped off with another group of soldiers to guard him for a week. We guarded him for a month and we did a ceremony to pass off to the French.....I believe. We took over from the Russians.
@blahblahblah blah Yeah thatâs thatâs the same as what my dad said
When I was at the Towe of London, my tour guide had been a guard for Rudolf Hess When he was in prison.
One day I'd love to find out all the people that guarded him, since I was told by my dad once that my great uncle had escorted him into court
@@adolfwasrite7009 hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
That's fascinating. đ
@@lvendahl6776 HMMMMMMM what?
@@adolfwasrite7009 Why did you call Hess a "Hero"? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
"Hess was a little bit mad."
But his taste in architecture was impeccable.
The Nazis were evil sons of bitches, but they had style. Hence why their uniform style and such persists in media
@@professionalhimbo Style, elegance and strength is looked down upon today in Europe and NA because of the Nazis.
@Righteous Agitator R/Iamverysmart
@Righteous Agitator Actually know what, I'm not just gonna be sarcastic about it, let's actually break this down. Concepts are never inherently evil, it's how they're twisted to become something else by the works of terrible people and tainted by popularist perception and knee jerk reactionaries that they remain branded as such. I'm not defending the nazi regime- most people can agree they were horrid monsters that did terrible things. But to dismiss the entire concept of dark uniforms because "Oh these guys that did bad things wore them" is asinine behaviour of the highest degree. There are bastards in every facet of the world, using whatever face and name suits them the best to feed their narcissism- to simply blanket label things as inherently bad due to individuals in history within the groups is fucking stupid.
I'm a black man. I'm a large black man. Large black men have committed crimes. Does this inherently make me a criminal? Because I look a certain way? Does every person wearing leather fit a certain mold?
You can enjoy a dark aesthetic without being a deplorable monster. It does not speak to psychopathy to enjoy the aesthetic of darker things- as long as you understand that all it is is an aesthetic.
Speer was the architect or am I missing your reference?
He's actually my great uncle. His sister fled Germany many years before the war. That lady is my great grandmother. Whenever we have family reunions everyone tries not to bring it up lol
Are you serious? Wow.
Thereâs other people commenting on here that they are related to him... đ
Ur full of crap
"Dont Mention the War."
@@AttilatheThrilla Yes! It's almost like he had more than 1 relative...
Its still baffles my mind that they locked him up indefinately. Meanwhile people like Albert Speer died outside of prison.
Yeah I wonder that too. I understand he was hitlers right hand man, but the people you need to take power aren't the same as the people you need to keep power. Hess was definitely the first, so why would he be locked up the longest when he arguably did the least? And he wanted peace? There must be something we don't know about.
@@dustin628 he left before the war kicked off. I think that he knew to many secrets from the allies because before they invaded Poland the Allies supported Hitler. Being the right hand man of Hitler he knew ALLOT.Imagine all that being exposed in some newspaper.
But thatâs just me speculating. I donât know all the facts.
If you look at Wiki, it says that at the NĂŒrnberger Prozesse they didn't know about important activities of his, so it probably would have turned out differently if they had had more information/evidence. I think it's rather a disgrace that they let any of those people leave prison again...
He is kinda racist

I always hoped there is a chance for peace with the UK when picking him. Wasted PP I guess.
@@Gehwagenschieber âAlways pick Bormannâ has become a valuable life tip of mine.
Personally, I feel that Hess was actually insane and acted on his own. it's the story that fits too many factors more than any conspiracy theory
It also explains why he went alone, dude probably stole the jet to almost get there too.

Him flying on his own IS a conspiracy theory.
I was watching a video a few weeks back that was telling the story of his grandson. Their family tried to keep the truth from him, but when he got the truth, he left the family and set out to learn more and to do some good and he does, he is very involved in holocaust awareness. He is doing good things with an awful legacy.

I believe it just looked like a nonocide, because who could do this a month before releasing from a jail. He knew too much.
How about a 93 year old man, who had spend almost half his life in a cell, who was dying from cancer, and would have been released into a country that was unrecognizable from what he knew, where he would be the most hated man alive.
Hess was the original Epstein.
they had to silence the prisoner, no matter fake or real one, they had many reasons to do so, and 99,99999 percent of whatever crap then doesnt really matter

@@terryfuldsgaming7995 yeah, now I feel like one of them but the fact he managed to fly to Scotland without being noticed by radars in Dover means mustache man had more allies in UK than we think.
My grandad used to guard Hess when he was in the British Army. I didn't know until after he died that he guarded him and my mam said he never talked about his life in Berlin and she didn't even know until after his death either. But I find it kind of cool that he guarded Spandau
Wow, how did you find out after his death?
@@hedgehog1965uk my mother's aunts and uncles told her that he was in the army and the years and stuff and she did as much research as she could do at the time and she found that he was there. She also mentioned to me that when she was younger her and my grandad watched a documentary on if it was really Hess in the prison and she said he wouldn't let her talk the whole time and he was watching the documentary like a hawk she thinks he might have been thinking if he noticed anything strange or something that's all I know
@@adolan It's interesting how some people can do things like that during the war and never talk about it, even to their closest family.
iâm really not a big history fan but for some reason i love listening to you tell historical tales
Agreed
Itâs his voice, itâs so smooth and satisfying to listen to
I am a big history fan and I love listening to his historical tales
The fact I've used "pick a windae, yer gawn oot it" before is priceless! đđ
So a borderline crazy fanatic had enough common sense to think âyunno, facing two fronts might not be a good idea after allâ
Fun Fact: The American warden for Spandau was Lt Ronald Spiers from Band of Brothers.
Nazis werenât exactly known for their mental stability. But I do find it odd that he waited so long to kill himself since heâd been in prison as long as he hadnât at that point.
he was murdered
He almost served his sentence and then kills himself? You believe that shit? He was murdered, dude.
@@wolfx.2546 He never 'Almost served his sentence"..... he was NEVER getting out. EVER, and he knew it.
Spandau was in WEST BERLIN, and whilst sharing their watch over him, it meant that the USSR had a legitimate reason for sending 100 Red Army soldiers in to West Berlin every three months. This was a conduit which could be, and WAS, thoroughly exploited by the KGB.
So long as Hess lived, and remained imprisoned, he'd be of infinite value to the Soviets.
Likewise, the British and US became very very good at watching who and what came through in to the Prison under the proviso of guarding Hess, it let them identify numerous KGB agents and tactics, this insight in to how the KGB would try to exploit conduits to infiltrate the West, and Western constructs, was again, of immense value to them. Especially the British.
Thus both the British and the USSR had vested interests in both assuring Hess did NOT die, but also that he was never ever released. If they could have kept him alive long enough to become a super centenarian they WOULD have, for different reasons, as outlined above.
He was 93, suffering arthritis, heart disease, and degenerations from age, like growing issues with his bodily control, over his bowels and bladder, for example, and thus was facing the indignity of being left a geriatric invalid cared for as a novelty, a prisoner of convenience, by the enemy. An enemy which would NEVER let him be freed.
So he killed himself.
Don't buy the BS his son tried to spin.
@@wolfx.2546 correct.
Spiers wasn't an psycho like in the show tho
I like all your videos mate but this was the best one I have seen in years! Right amount of humor and charm! Keep up the good work!
"the royal family could do with a few quiet years" and two days later prince phillip dies.....
I remember reading that prosecutors at Nuremberg remarked that all of the top Nazis on trial looked like people you'd pass in the street, and never notice - except Goering and Hess. Hess, it was said, looked nuts from the get-go.
He actually tried to broker peace with the UK, but Churchill just threw him in prison.
Well, that's what happens when folks try to do what's right for their own people instead of bow down to international bankers the way Churchill did.
@GEMINI factor Based and Accurate. An empire sold by a drunk, it's depressing.
@@adolfwasrite7009 and Churchill was corrupted to the hilt. He stood by the food lined during and after the war, in solidarity with his people. When he died,his estate was 7million Pounds.

They have been quiet the last 70 years while British institutions, including the Monarchy, have been dismantled.
@@sunnyjim1355 Good. The Monarchy should have zero authority.
I am thankful Hitler became so full of himself to take on the Soviet Union. The outcome of the war might have been very different if Hitler had just been more careful
it would have been a total aryan victory and he was pretty damn close to defeating the soviet b@stards.
in a matter of few months he was at the gates of moscow, the incompetence of his allies as well as fighting on more than 1 front with harsh weather conditions and large swaths of land to invade is what cost him the war, not inability or inefficiency.
Yeh...... If he hadn't of done that, the US couldn't have even took him on
Strong eyebrows meets strong mustache

Rudolf Hess tried to make a peace deal with the british, but when he landed in northern scotÔand he was arrested, for life. Let thats sink in....

@@adolfwasrite7009 so you think the nazis were good?
@@stupidvideoman3187 That's the last time any major economic power has ever dared to sever their economy from the parasitic globalized banking system. There's a reason there were so many "Judea declares war on Germany" articles published in newspapers in the early 1930's. It's never been about 'democracy vs evil'. It's about whether or not people have a right to live free from an aristocratic class of parasite bankers. The answer in the modern era is a resounding "no." The last nation that tried to manage their own currency was Iraq. China is in an interesting position right now, and trying to make a deal with the banking oligarchs rather than plunge the planet into another global war.

Neo-nazi and weeb, what a disgusting mix
My elder brother sered Hess his breakfast several mornings. He was in the UK military police. From 1979 until 1990. He was based in Berlin for a couple of years. I hold him to write about it. However, correctly enough, he does not want to give the guy any publicity.
Well then he's stupid and also if he sees it subjectively he's more dumb that it sounds because in this things you need to be objective after all the history is write by the winners who are not always as good as they seem.
Hess actually was unlucky because he only still was there because that was the only way the Soviets would get into West Berlin and deploy their spies.
I thoroughly enjoyed this. Thanks for making it!
I was told a story by people that live in Waterfoot, that they knew of German male who appeared in the region at the same time as Hess, and lived out the rest of his life in the area as a farm hand. It's claimed by some, that he was Hess' copilot, but never proven.
He flew alone
Seems unlikely he would have stayed at the place where his plane crashed if he was trying to hide his true identity.
Ahh, yes, that wouldâve been old Gruppenfuehrer Fritz McDougal. He blended right in with the locals and also made awesome peach schnapps and strudel.... đ
The plane he flew only had one pilot's position.
Hess was murdered. His carer was specifically called away at that time. He returned, only to find military personnel around Hess's corpse and immediately asked, "How did they know?" Also, the electrical cord around his neck was not of sufficient length for all of the twisting required. (The cord shown in the video is wildly wrong. How long is the lamp cord in your house? Remember,Hess had been on suicide watch for decades, they even took away his glasses at night because he had previously tried suicide with even them. So,why have a super-extended cord?) Also, Hess's brother didn't believe it,he asked for an independent autopsy and was willing to pay for it himself. The West German Minister of Foreign Affairs ( if memory serves,it was some minister), talked the brother into dropping the autopsy by using many words and then invoking some or other law preventing West Germans from rising up against the Coalition forces.
Only started watching your content yesterday,very good its interesting and informative.My father was in the Royal Green Jackets in the 70âs and was one of Hess's guards .
Rudolf Hess is an underrated person to talk about.
I am glad that you made a video of him
It is said that, in Hitlers presence, Hess gave up his own personality and was completely submissive to Hitler. He was called "Hitler's lapdog" by the other high ranking Nazis. Untill now, it is not really known what Hess' assignments were, and what or how much he new.
This was very good! Always been interested in Hess and Speer.
You should do George and Wallace next.
They were pretty chummy with old Adolph!
George and Wallace ?
Maybe you meant Edward and Wallis Simpson ?
I didn't know Edward had a specific liking for Hitler,but know Edward liked his uncle,Herzog Carl Eduard von Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha.He was in charge of the German Red Cross.He visited him in 1937.Maybe that was the reason he got invited by Hitler.
Or did you mean the British King mentioning George ? If so who was mr.Wallace ?
Fascinating. Thanks Thoughty2
Commando Bert is a meme on its own x'D thank you so much @Thoughty2 had a good laugh
His right hand got a lot of missions to do. Remember, he was not married until 45.
I was at school with a girl whose grandparents farmed the bit where Hess landed.
Gotta love Bert. Jim Henson was truly brilliant. Just a fought. Love the channel bro
Wow, that Bert and Ernie tie-in was amazing. And yes! Hess does look like Bert. Amazing.
Ah, great video. You did miss the part where the Royal College of Surgeons voted unanimously that the man who died in Spandau Prison wasnât Hess. But I suppose thatâs quite an obscure fact.
Is that right? Wow. I mean, Thoughty2 made mention of his body being that of Hess' was in question for a time. But concluded to be his after all.
Thank you for that nugget though. I will go check it out.
Why do you think anyone would imprison someone else and pretend it is Hess?
Rudolf Hess was the editor and transcriber of Hitler's Mein Kampf. That makes him the world's first grammar Nazi...

Another strange tidbit was at the Nuremberg trials. Hess, never one on good terms with Hermann Göring, had suddenly become quite friendly with him. Meanwhile, all the love he had for women had become cold and distant. Almost like, if conspiracy theories were to be believed, the actor standing in for him got his cards mixed up. Or maybe history is just odd like that.
He was well guarded - but apparently not too well since no one noticed that he was committing suicide.
Amazing stories you come up with, wow, kudos to you!
From tricking Hitler with a corpse to this. Nice
nice one innit
Absolutely love the Kung fu panda reference
So, the cost peace was prison for Rudolf Hess...The Bert part got me in stitchesđđ 8:21
It was not a Messerschmidt BF 109, but a BF 110 he flew over in.
Spandau is a district of Berlin, the prison simple is named after where it is.
We need a movie about this man in rambo style, where he just fuckin yeets himself to England and literally takes out england by himself.
@Dragon Butt what part of him being Nazi did you not get?
@@letsplayanything9830 What about it? It'd be an amazing action movie, nazi or not.
@@dragonbutt No no buddy promoting Nazi's as cool action heroes just emboldens neo-Nazis and their absolutely stupid ideology. Imagine holocaust survivors seeing a movie that makes a Nazi look like a badass. Cringe.
nah@@letsplayanything9830
@@letsplayanything9830 By that logic, fiction should not be allowed in any form in media.
Look, i respect survivors of the holocaust and all those affected by the war and the nazi empire, but its just a movie. A satirical one.
As for Neo Nazis, they're gonna do their thing regardless of what they see in the media.
18:36- Dude that jumpscare got me haha
Thanks for sticking that comparison image in my head thoughty! đ€Ł
Hey buddy love your videos watch you everyday I hope someday we can exspand your videos to tv series on the history channel my family loves your videos and my kids learn alot
In the late 90s one of Hessâ great nieces came to my school as a exchange student.
She had the eyebrows, haha.
I dont usually watch your videos, but that bert/he's comparison has just earned you a fan buddy.
Thoughty2 is good like that been watching your channel for a while bud :)
Right on time, you glorious bastard!
Thank you for your continued years of service!
One of my American friends (we met on Discord) claims to be descended from Rudolf Hess. I was skeptical at first, but his last name is actually Hess...
There are thousands of people completely unrelated with the last name hess
He had a son but he never moved to America. He had three children but I don't know what became of them, ask him what his dad or grandad's name was. Rudolf's son was called Wolf
I remember when Hess died. The circumstances of his death came under question almost immediately. I recall the main argument being that he wasn't able to raise his arms high enough to have fastened the cord. The idea was that he was killed because it was costing a ridiculous amount of money to house one prisoner who was the only prisoner in a huge complex.
Love the Spandau Ballet trivia tidbit..... :-)
I very much doubt those files will ever be in the public domain.... there where a lot of deals and secret negotiations going on at the time
You should do a video on my uncles uncle. The man who saved hitler in ww1. His name was Henry Tandey. It's interesting and there's a picture of them too that hitler had in his office and now in a german art gallery and the second one in a place where I can't say.
You will say respect my athority tell me now!!!ÂĄ!
He came down in a field just outside the village of Eaglesham, as most sources claim and I can also attest too as I live in the area and have been the the aviation museum where the recovered engine of his plane was held at the time.
Oh, I had figured that Spandau Ballet was a reference to the WW1 machinegun equipped on biplanes and the aerial ballet of the dogfighting. To me that's more poetic and cooler hah.
Both my parents fought in WW11, my dad from Inverness was a gunner in the Royal Navy and mum from Aberdeen in The ATS. My 3 brothers were born long before I was in fact they're 7, 8 & 9 years older. Dad thought it important that I knew about the war and would watch The world At War on TV with me. My Uncle Peter had spent years in a POW Japanese Camp and my understanding from listening to my father talk about him, I learned he was never the same man but was emancipated and subdued the rest of his life. I a child of perhaps 6 years like other children do say things that adults wish they wouldn't in my case I just happened to say which ironically was true my Uncle Peter looked exactly like Rudolph Hess. I can still after all these years recall the look of horror on the adults faces. I guess it's why I remember it so well.

If âif you donât sit downâ is a person.
đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
Stop winking at the end of the videos. You're making my heart flutter.
In an alternate timeline Hitler and Hess are a comedic duo
Of you watch the Simpsonâs this will make senseâ like the guy that safely landed the plane with all those peopleâ âyou mean sully Sullivanâ âno, rudolf Hessâ
@Jacob Moniz Which episode was this?
Except Hess crashed
@@arthurvanrodds2772 One of the most recent ones
