Even after all these years, Mark is still capable of surprising me.
agreed
Seriously! His segments are always for immediate viewing.
Damn! So true.... And that MUG crowned with an "Amish bonnet". Way too evil to even die at a decent age... frikken 95 yrs old.
How Hollywood has never exploited THIS STORY is beyond me.
I am a history buff and I am frequently surprised by his videos.
More like Nazi Germany continues to surprises everyone---Dr. Felton being the channeler and purveyor.
I love how Mark presents to us largely unexplored topics
@Truthwatcher
Truth. That’s just one of the reasons he’s the best!
He is the best at the obscure...
Go to a library. They are still there. Not everything if fully explored electronically!
Mark presents facts that most people have no knowledge of. This is what keeps me glued to this channel. I keep wondering “What Interesting topic will Mark present next ?”
It would be cool if he does a video on republican senator Joe McCarthy. Very dark history in the USA that needs to be taught to keep us in check.
I read a lot and I have never heard of Eleanore Baur. At 70 years old I'm still learning new things, thanks to Mark's videos!
So now you dont think i Lie..(now No not anymore....funny....have a great Day Sir (just look my name you get It ) citat Napoleon boneparte..(not real name Sir )..cital All history is Lies they All agree on...cital jusius Cesar cital All demokrati is Doom to fail.....and my favorite Sir....Stalin do not matter who wote only who count....citat end....have a great Day Sir

@@AmericanIdiot7659 because all Wold a Truman show Sir..(sorry)
Wow...the fact she was given her freedom AND a PENSION, before innocent homosexuals in Germany is a travesty of justice. And that engraving on her tombstone? Pathetic.
Two of Mark's books are being turned into Hollywood movies 🎬 Congrats Mark!
they are? which ones?
Which one
Yeah which ones???
Look forward to seeing them!
Mark wrote books???
"Not widely known . . ." ist the understatement of this chanel. I´m amazed by the unknown stories and details.
It is surprising but understandable. Right Wing and god's dogs are in league very very often..
this man is awesome !!! I love his channel....please give attention to the Hitler time before he became to power
Never fails to surprise me how many unbelievable stories Mark Felton manages to make videos on, definitely the best history channel on CZcams.
Mark Felton is sittin on top for sure!
Ill second that
@@FutureBoyWonder I will have a look at Voices of the past.👍
Especially considering the topics, coupled with that off Social Justice Warrior culture at CZcams, Mark Felton uploaded a video of the Nazi leaderships natural speaking voices, something we aren't shown and one of Hitler, I was unable to find them on Marks channel, only reuploads from other channels with no affiliation other than being viewers
@@Rybo-Senpai Oh there a ton of right stuff still and it more Social Justice Warrior attacking people.
When you’re let off essentially Scott free, but some neighbourhood children torment you for the rest of your life instead
Well massive fine all her stolen wealth and property taken.
I get more and more impressed on the war crime trials especially in Europe they really tried hard to be fair and if they could not find enough evidence people did get acquitted.
Did love the years of loneliness being called an old witch which was extremely accurate and tormented by the Kids.
Turn around is fair play
Do onto others as they've done to you
@@RedRocket4000 they let so many nazis off and commuted most life sentences, what do you mean the trials were "fair"
@@RedRocket4000 OK misogynists
IKR
But I'm sure she had lots of ghost
Keeping her company at night
Mark Felton you have surprised me with another unexplored and truly amazing topic of WW2 history!
Oberführerin (an SS rank between Colonel and Brigadier General) Eleonore Baur aka Sister Pia,the only known lady present at the Munich Beer Hall Putsch of 1923.
Maybe she was there to blow people, already had 2 kids out of marriage. Workin girl
Female, yes, but don't know that I'd call her a "lady".
@@anthonydavella8350 well yeah they didn't have birth control back then. Stupid males pregnated her. What do you expect?
Praising you is getting old. Your content though never does!
The comments section has become mainly 💗seeking narcissists hoping Dr. Felton will give them one.
@@Lerxstification yeah you’re not entirely wrong there
@@JessiContingenC He's completely wrong and being very unfair
@@martinputt6421 nah, been seeing these comments for over 100+ videos of his now. its gotten old, stop kissing ass.
@@TheBucketSkillI assume you're jealous of Dr Mark Feltons talent as a historian by the way you're behaving.
This has got to be one of the best of Felton's "unknown histories."
@Mad Mark "...with a terrific set of knockers!" Yep, made the genre entirely acceptable, no doubt about it
If he wasn’t British it would be.
Come on mate, you can't be serious.
Agreed. Total agreement.
"unknown" - maybe for those who only get their history from 10 minute youtube videos. just stop.
Thank you for this amazing piece of history!
It makes me sick to know this woman only served a small sentence, even sicker she lived on until the 1980's while recieving a pension.
A devil wearing a cross. What does that say about religious people?
@@ytsux9259 Unfortunately, a lot of these types of "religious people" are still very much with us and are just as unrepentant as "Sister Pia". 😒🙄
What country in ww2 did not have war crimes, I can’t think of one.
Wonderful women
Hearing the story of Sister Pia, is new to me. Can see why her final years, where so on Happy. People wanting to let her know what a sick individual lived among them. Her hatred, she promoted throughout her live, came back to haunt her to the end of her life. A prime example of what goes around, comes around.
She didn't care. She was completely unrepentant about her Nazi life. 🙄
New history unknown to me. Dr Felton exceeds himself again
I had seen Sister Pia in photos and assumed that she was an "Old Fighter", someone who attended to the wounded after a street fight.! That she was part of Himmler's cadre' at Dachau was most illuminating. Thank you Mark.
Judging by her looks, she was probably IN many street fights.
@@D_Marrenalv lol
@@D_Marrenalv Agreed. Lol
@@D_Marrenalv Low grade CZcams comedienne
@@charlesangell_bulmtl don't be so nasty you angry man
Wow, I knew none of this, and I like to think I'm fairly well versed in history. Thank you Dr. Felton, I'm always learning new things from you.
How does he even find this? AMAZING. History channel should be ashamed, and of course history channel even when it was decent was biased. GREAT JOB MARK 👌🏻. My favorite channel.
You’re right: History Channel should be ashamed. History Channel cares more about silly alien stories and myths.
History Channel is not history
Mark is a most brilliant narrator. His stories and dedication to research and accuracy are unparalleled. Keep up the great work, Sir. The world needs your voice and historical information.
a lot of his videos use stolen scripts...
Except he’s a Brit.
@@beautruex7012 Your point being?
I saw the title to this video and who it was from and just went "Wait, what?"
Most of the time when I see something that stops me in my tracks like that, 3 more seconds of looking at it makes me see it for the clickbait it is, but never with the videos put forth by Mark on this channel. Very nice. I truly get things that make me stop dead, which in turn makes me far more likely to listen & learn.
There's always something about the war we haven't heard before. It's also a reminder to all males that women can be just as unpleasant as men. This was the case in the other concentration camps...
@@vincentl.9469 I consider myself to be an eternal student, there is always more to learn, always a new way to look at things.
And yeah, sometimes we need a reminder that humans as a whole can be pretty nasty, conversely sometimes we need a reminder of what makes humans great as well. (not that we got that latter part here)
I subscribed to Mark Felton, not because his commentary is well researched and presented, but there is ever any click bait.
"Often called an 'old witch' by local children."
The wisdom of youth.
"A life for Germany" in her tombstone. After a life dedicated to the idea and hate that destroyed the whole country. Pretty sure she found the lacking and fault only in others as her master did.
She was an old witch even when she wax young.
I suspect that there are quite a number of witches that would take great offense to the comparison.
In the Nazi times they would be worshipping her.
OLD WITCH. Probably. Hitler and his warlocks would not have let her hang around their “men’s club” if she didn’t have something occult to offer.
Amazing that Mark can pull these previously unknown stories out of thin air.
Dr. Mark Felton is more than an educator , i love his presentations 👍
another fact I did not know about, thank you Dr. Felton you don’t disappoint!
Without doubt Dr Mark Felton is the best researcher and teacher/ lecturer of history ever!
You're always taking us down "the less-traveled road," or is that the untraveled road. Again a personality, a subject I never knew of. Thank you.
Everyday we learn something new from this guy, that we never read in history books and never mention on documentary, and for that i love you mark!
because you have read ALL the history books and have a thorough understanding of them? of course
@@blizzdeka7343 why be a jerk?
Never knew Hitler had a female SS general, I always come too you for history facts.
It was an honorary rank, as Felton says at 4:32. She was not a real SS general; she never commanded troops. The title of this video is misleading.
@Brian McG That would be fake sources
@@magistrumartium Then what was the purpose?
@@magistrumartium yea
@@magistrumartium never commanded troops but commanded a whole concentration camp which actually much worse than leading troops.
i've been obsessed about ww2 for as long as i can remember, reading and watching almost anything i can get my hands on. but mark felton continues to surprise me with stories that i've never heard about. amazing!!!!!
Me too😁
A
"Moody and unpredictable."
A polite way of saying just plain nuts!
Or just a majority of women
@@finnanutyo1153
Don’t even go there.
@@finnanutyo1153 Now now, let's be fair, there's nothing graven in stone that says some women can't be as depraved as some men. That doesn't mean the majority of either sex are depraved and sadistic.
Women are wired to care for children. This is tendency, not destiny, but it does mean pathologies of this kind tend more to males than females. Females have a different set of problems.
@@HooDatDonDar "Women are wired to care for children." Interestingly, Hitler would have agreed with you, which is one of the reasons he didn't want German women in combat. "Women should give life, not take life!" He said. In fact, when he found out the Soviets were using women in combat he asked "What kind of degraded, depraved society would do such a thing?"
I guess his own version of depravity was acceptable, to him at least.
My god, you never fail to astonish me with history I’ve never heard of, thank you Mark.
I find myself enthralled by the details of your stories. Thank you for your hard work in delivering these to the masses.
Felton is great for several reasons. Finding almost unknown stories such as this one is one of those reasons.
"Released after less than a year, and allowed to apply for a pension and financial compensation for her troubles"
WOW! The similarities between historical scum, and contemporary scum is very eerie. I guess rewarding criminality isn't as new of a concept as I thought.
Those who are criminals after a war are only decided by the victors.
@@thelastwesternman6115 If you wanna be pedantic, criminality is always subjective and therefore your entire point is moot. Just say what you wanna say instead of hiding it behind some vague phrasing.
Neither is an institutional legal favorable view of Wemon, even in times when they wore openly thought of as the "lesser but fairer" sex and this is true threw out western history.
They still are the fairer sex. Lesser is a point of view on undoubted difference.
Exactly; you can be a US senator for nearly fifty years and eventually president!
In the US, this channel would be worthy of a Pulitzer Prize for History. The amazing historical facts just keep coming.
Small correction: Eleonore Baur is actually from Kirchdorf am Haunpold (Bad Aibling is only a few kilometres away). Kirchdorf am Haunpold was actually the village that gave the commune I grew up in its name until shortly after the war it was renamed after the more important and bigger Bruckmühl.
That’s near Lewisham…London
You would get lost walking in your GARDEN. !!!!
Thank you for commenting on the content of video rather than just talk about the uploader.
@@miguelselemane6233 Kirchdorf is certainly closer to Lewisham than it is to the South Pole ...
Another unknown gem of history. Thanks for sharing Dr Felton!
I have been learning about WWII for over 40 years, yet I would never have heard of "Sister Pia", the female monster, if it wasn't for you. Thank you.
Wasn't exactly a "monster", but yeah it was good to learn about her
Please, stop talking badly about my wife, thank you.
His content never boars me, I always enjoy when I see his notification banner pop up.
It never boars me as well, only sometimes wolves me…
I sheepishly follow every episode.
He's unlike other "creators" who inevitably skunk you with their bullshit media click bait games.
This episode Bauer’s me though.
It's a mistake we could all weasely make..
That was one of the few 'new' bits of history of the NS era I was totally unaware of. Well documented .
Same
Love your videos. I've been playing them in the background as I'm cooking, doing chores, or even relaxing. Something that I couldn't do with a library book.
This is awesome Dr. I love the obscure stories keep them coming so Grace kudos
Interesting, informative and worthwhile video. Pathetic how Sister Pia was sentenced to 10 years hard labor and was released within a year for poor health, yet thrived for nearly three decades thereafter.
@DeeMuda Actually some German government officials during those early days after WWII were ex-Nazis. Thank you for your comment.
I'm convince that Dr. Felton can very easily find the proverbial needle in a hay stack. Thank you for your hard work and another excellent video.
I’m sure it’s not ‘easy’ for him but Hayes he is very good at finding them
ALWAYS Great videos and very useful historical information. Thank you Mark. Peace & Health
I have learned so much history from your channel! Thank you Mark!
Thanks Mark, needed this after today's 5 nil loss.
Need this after a 5-0 win.
Unless you support Welling Utd I assume you are a fellow Gooner? I’m currently watching highlights of the 86/87 season on CZcams, far more enjoyable than the spineless lot who wear the shirt today
Need this after not watching sports
Need this -- since since we can't get enough Rugby in the USA.
@@stewy62 thoughts on arteta?
A female SS general? If I had professors with half the knowledge or personality and dry wit of Dr. Felton, I would have stayed in school a little bit longer and made a little more use of my time there. Every one of these episodes is informative, if not mildly surprising. And I’m former USMC. And consider myself a student of history! So, thank you!
That's a not infrequent comment on this channel.
While I do enjoy the content, I honestly wonder why stories like these would change anything about studying the period at school or university?
I was very lucky to have 2 fantastic history profs in my undergrad. They were why I minored in European history, but I wished I had a degree in the subject.
@@alastairward2774 I can’t speak for you… But for me, it has more to do with some of the things that seem too far out to believe. Like the British preparation to drop the atomic bomb on Japan. Complete with in-flight refueling at a time such a thing hadn’t previously existed. Or the SS guards who served for the Allied powers afterwards. Including providing physical security at the Nuremberg trials and Spandau prison. The good doctor doesn’t go more than two or three months without surprising me. And I previously considered myself fairly well read when it came to military history.
@@alastairward2774 makes history interning which is what history is if presented correctly. Universities and schools often seam to be determined to make history as dry and uninteresting as possible.
Your video's are so informative and balanced you are one of the best Historians on you tube.
Your videos are always interesting Sir but this one is particulary notable for bringing this person to the attention of students whether formal or informal ones like me
One of these days I'm gonna travel from Tennessee to England, and I'm gonna perform a clandestine operation to find out how the heck you come up with these minute hidden stories. I'm an avid very amateur historian and have always loved history, particularly from Great Britain.
good luck :P
With all of those anti-vaxers AND anti-Maskers in Tennessee and with the HOSPITALS filling up there so rapidly, you may not be able to travel to England!!! OR many other countries for that matter!!
@@steelman86 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@steelman86 Is this really the right comment section for a hysterical Covid rant? Got to strain really hard to connect that to the subject of the video or the commenter's post. Great use of capital letters and exclamation points though, really solid job👍.
I have friendly links with the Volunteer State. Should you be looking for a guide other than Mark then I can surely help.
Absolutely fascinating. Your ability to shine light on these largely forgotten people and stories from the past is remarkable.
I'm sure Mark Felton is DOCTOR WHO, travelling back in time ...he just knows amazing story's! mind blown every time

A absolute great channel you have Mark.
When I have watched all the videos that this channel has to offer I fully intend to start over once again. Damn I love this stuff - thanks Mark.
I can just picture Mark rifling through black filing cabinets in a huge room, lit only by a few hanging ceiling lights. He draws out one drawer after another, checking each file with care. He happens upon some oddity, and a raise of an eyebrow shows that he's found a nugget to make a whole video off of.
"Top Men"...
Very well said...
...smokey room, empty scotch bottles...
I always imagined that that he had a team of students researching this stuff and drafting scripts.
Thank you for sharing !!!
Mark, we love you, please never stop making these type of videos
The many many hours I've spent learning about World War 2 I never had a clue that Hitler had a female general. Thanks for enlightening us on this topic. 🙂👍🏻
Here come the neo Nazis again. Only trouble with these vids they attract loonies whom no one would otherwise listen to.
I get so many brownie points with friends and acquaintances who enjoy learning about WW2 history and haven't seen any of Marks content. Thanks, Mark!
brownie points?
more like brownshirt points
badum tsss
Thank you Mark. A really interesting story superbly researched!
Still so good I can rewatch oldies and enjoy them waiting on research on the next new one! Great day to be a history buff.
I love how you just keep pouring out with these German videos. Love them !! Everytime I see a new video I get so excited!! Thank you Mark. From Flint Michigan U.S.A
Learn something new with every Mark Felton video. Thank you very much!
Marks channel has blown up nicely, it wasnt long ago he was only on a few thousand subs! 1.4 million now, his research is second to none and his voice is perfect for telling us these stories, my favorite one so far is the one about the Downing st cats, 2nd is the one about the British boats blown up on the Chinese river and the cat that was saved, Mark told us about his epic fight with a big rat to the death! Great story, as you can tell i love cats!! Got 3 myself!!
Thank You Again Mark ! Astonishing work you do !
I really never think this was a thing, thanks for the great content Dr Felton!
Never stop giving us this wonderful content!
Thank you Dr. Felton.
