Hitler [Part 1] | Oversimplified | History Teacher Reacts 

He was avoiding Austrian military service specifically not military service in general. He wanted to serve in the german army.

the original video is blocked in my country , so thanks for enabling me to see it for the first time

"Someday you'll be a public official" Well he got that right.

Interesting fact: The Doctor who took care of Hitlers sick mom was jewish. Hitler later called him a "Edeljude" or "Jew of honor" (Srry 4 bad english)

Welcome to Austria, where 16-year old drifters with no purpose in life hang out at the opera.

The original is banned in Germany. This enraged myself, who watched it anyway

I think he avoided joining in the war under the Austria Hungary banner and rather fight with Germany because of his beliefs.

Fun fact: When hitler was young he nearly drowned in a river but was saved by a priest and on that same day in the same river that same priest saved the man that killed hitler

Imagine having him as a teacher and liking oversimplified and stumbling upon this channel.

Mr Terry: look at this baby Class: Ohhhh So cuuute! Mr Terry: He's Hitler Class: Boys, that escalate quickly

This enraged his father, who punished him severely.

I remembered my history teacher asked us to pick a man based on his traits. Most of us thought by choosing someone who doesn't drink and smoke would be a good leader. Our history teacher revealed to us that the man we chose was Adolf Hitler, not Churchill or Roosevelt. That was a shock to us back then. LOL

In oversimplified's video about the Cold War (which you reacted to before this), there was a reference to this episode. Something along the lines of: "What's wrong with you?" (Speaking to Stalin) "My father punished me severely."

Dude are we just gonna neglect the fact that this history teacher has a Huge NES collection behind him lol

When someone says "I would kill baby or young Hilter", reply "no, I would show him compassion and divert his path away from tyranny" and when they start calling you a Nazi, show them this Oversimplified video.

As a history teacher myself, middle school though, thank you for your reactions. I do recommend this serious for students who may be struggling to grasp the material, especially in my home instruction.

Hitler actually wanted to avoid fighting for Austria, but he had no problem with fighting for Germany

Wow I was always wondering where the "who punished him severely" jokes were coming from, since I watched all oversimplified videos. Now I suddenly see this and I'm like "wait I never saw this one" and turns out it's just blocked in Germany.... nice

Daddy issues is a pretty common thing. Actually the fact that Hitler and Stalin, both highly anti-liberal but otherwise radically different historical figures had them kind of proves that.

Important German part in history more should know about German RU-vid: bans original video

12:58 - 13:02 Yeah. *Side effects may include and are not limited to:* shell shock, PSD, flashbacks, episodes, Paranoia, Anxiety, Depression, partial, temporal or complete blindness, deafness, paralysis, coma, strokes and death.

Blame it the art school for not accepting him 😂.... always these art schools....

OverSimplified is the only RU-vidr that can make an educational video that you always want to rewatch

What if hitler made it into art school

I read this as "A Hitler Teacher Reacts"

This video enraged his father, who punished him severely.

A lot of sad moments in this man's life, no wonder he turned maniac later on in his life

He is a good HisTerry teacher

love your content sir, please keep on reacting to more history vids. i loved it.

I like this video. I think it's better to have a history teacher commenting and explaining with a video than just watch the original video on it's own. It just gives you that extra bit of information that you sometimes need.

01:21 I don't know how much you've read about Churchill but he once said to someone who was remarking over how he reminded them of their baby "All babies look like me."

“He failed” One of the most changing sentences in history

the fact his parents were cousins already explains a lot of things for me

This is the best reaction video I've seen. He doesn't pause the video every 2 seconds and doesn't ramble on and on about off topic stuff. He lets us enjoy while giving us the vide of his reaction. Thank you for the great video!

Really nice video. There is people uploading a video just then looking and basically stealing the content. But you actually make the video better as a teacher with history knowledge and probs for giving them credit and stuff at the start.

to be fair Germany and France were always on the brink of war with each other. That only changed after ww2 where we became "sworn brothers" kinda

With the correct childhood he probably wouldnt have turned out Like this. Not saying that this is just the fault of His parents

He was one of the men that refused to come put during the Christmas truce of 1914

Re: Military service, it was NOT getting drafted to fight in the multi-cultural Austro_Hungarian Army. He petitioned to join the Bavarian Army (which was separate at the time). He was part of the first wave of volunteers who were scooped up as war start (some had been "deferred" from service, others were just swept up). They were given very basic training and sent to hold the line when the offensive stalled at the Marne. The German's refer to this incident as the "Slaughter of Innocents" (the author of All Quiet on the Western Front had a quite similar experience). Max Hasting's "The Mask of Command" covers the whole thing in more detail. P.S. My Grandfather would always refer to Hitler as "Herr Schikelgrubber" when he felt the need to mention him in letters home from the Navy. I guess it was a round-about way of calling him a bastard.

I thoroughly enjoy your comments and take on these videos!!

I love how people constantly try to psychoanalyze Hitler in order to make what he believed a result of some kind of pathology or trauma, rather than his beliefs coming from him observing the state of the world around him.

I really love history. And I glad I learn more from you!

you should do history of the entire world i guess by bill wurtz

This video is blocked on my country domain and my device so thank you for allowing me to see this video, I’ll make sure to check out the part 2 video

So here is my theory. Would it be accurate to think that WW2 wouldn't have taken place without WW1? Sure Italy would still have Mussolini, but Hitler seems to have come to power specifically because of the after effects of WW1. With that thought in mind, and while I know this wasn't the only reason WW1 happened, do you think the assassination of archduke Ferdinand technically caused both world wars?

The last article I read about his gas injuries is that he was treated by a psychiatrist Dr Edmund Forste who thinks, that he pretend be blind. So doctor used hypnosis and electric shock therapy. Thanks do this, the doctor completely changed his personality.

If I remember in his book he said the only other time he felt so depressed when he heard when Germany surrendered was when his mother died.

"Hey, look at this baby." **Proceeds to invade Poland**

9:00 he wasn't trying to avoid war in Austria, he was avoiding fighting on Austria's side.

The gas attack and the amount of death around him in literally all of his life greatly affected him. PTSD to the enth degree

WTF this video isn’t available in Germany (I definitely need a VPN)

I wonder if his dad and mom bring related made him come out a little goofy.

Mr Terry: “Give credit to the original creators” Random viewer: “Hmm... No” This enraged Hitler’s father, who punished the viewer severely

blocked in the UK, someone uploaded it but it got taken down so cheers for letting me see it again :)

Glad to find this channel today, I’ve watched over simplified for years. I really enjoy the added info

Involving the avoiding and then joining the military I think it was basically he didn't want to fight for Austria-Hungary because they were an Empire filled with "Lesser races" but he moved to Germany and was more than happy to fight for the German Empire

I see a lot of myself in Hitler. I have daddy issues, have a great relationship with my mom, loved cowboys and Indians and wargames as a kid... Not so much on the art skills though. Not much talent there for me. But it's strange how many similarities a person can have with arguably one of the worst people in history.

“He wasn’t a fan” gets me EVERY TIME 😂

Per wikipedia, “Hitler received the final part of his father’s estate in May 1913 and moved to Munich, Germany. When he was conscripted into the Austro-Hungarian Army, he journeyed to Salzburg in Feb 1914 for medical assessment. After he was deemed unfit for service, he returned to Munich. In August 1914, he voluntarily enlisted in the Bavarian Army. According to a 1924 report by Bavarian authorities, allowing Hitler to serve was almost certainly an administrative error, since as an Austrian citizen, he should have been returned to Austria.” Hitler later claimed he did not wish to serve Habsburg Empire because of the mix of races in its army and belief that the collapse of Austria-Hungary was imminent.

I already loved seeing oversimplified and it’s awesome to see a history teacher talk about his videos

Imagine failing an entrance exam to an art school then committing one of the worst atrocities in recorded history.

I’d love to see your reaction and thoughts on the Falklands war by oversimplified

YouTUbe in a nutshell, Original Video is blocked in Germany cuz of the bad bad uncle Adi but im able to watch Mr. Terry watching it -.- GG RU-vid, you did it again xD

I’m currently in Hamburg for school and this vid is blocked (for very obvious reasons) thx for allowing me too view it!

YOOO!! That’s so cool lmao i never thought of a history teacher reacting tbh.

45 seconds in and giving credit to the original creator class

I didn’t listen to Oversimplified telling me to get a VPN and that’s blocked in my country, so thanks for enabling me to see it again UPDATE I WAS FORCED TO GET NORD VPN HELP

My Teacher once told: "In war, the Truth always dies first." I dont know why it got in my mind but i just post it here.

This is so incredibly refreshing, especially your start of the video. Thank you for being considerate and open minded. I think you're a great history teacher. Especially because you are open to learn more, or change something if you don't know it and ask for knowledge.

I’ve been watching since just a few thousand subscribers and I have to compliment your amazing content =) You provide necessary information and are always yearning to learn more which is a great quality that only the best teachers have. Thank you for being a great teacher and teaching me much more in a couple of minutes than many of my previous history teachers could have!

Thx for making this video, I love Oversimplified but sadly I live in EU so some content is not available.

Mr. Terry history reacted to an oversimplified vid. This enraged his father, who punished him severely

I firmly believe the British and French (as well as one of my most hated presidents Woodrow Wilson) were so unfair in the Treaty of Versailles to Germany, and so blatant ignorant about what they were doing. That most of the problems in the world today, and the chaos in the world stems from the unfair treatment towards the German Nation in 1918. It is also very clear that the only reason the Soviet Union came to power, and was able to exist, was also because of the Treaty of Versailles. Large numbers of British diplomats actually resigned over the Treaty, calling it all sorts of names. For people who don't know what was all in it, do your research, because before WW2 it wasn't a battle between good and evil, like some try to play out to be.

mr.terry: look at this cute baby class: aw mr.terry: it’s Hitler class: 😩

I think the thing I love most about your channel is how insistent you are on giving the original content creator credit when you do your reactions. Not that I doubted it, but that's how I really know you're a history teacher: proper attribution and citation of sources is paramount! Great videos man, keep doing great work and educating America's youth on the past. We all need more of it.

This video was restricted in my country (Romania) so thank you for reacting to this!Now I can watch it too.

9:20 If I remember well from Mein Kampf, he didn't want to avoid war. He wanted to fight for Germany, not for Austria.

I love the intro shows how much more of an adult you are compared to most reaction guys

He avoided the military service in the Austro-Hungarian military but Volunteered for the Imperial German army

This is blocked in the UK. WHY? From what I see, most of the countries mainly involved with it (UK, Germany ect.) and that's quite sad and well, confusing.

Hitler left Austria to avoid Military Service in 1913. WWI started in 1914. So i don't know where you get your "he avoided the War" Theory from. But it really doesn't ad up time wise.

Girls when they get rejected from art school: what am i gonna do now ;-; Boys:

The Draft in Austria could have been to prepare for a possibly war with Russia and get more trained resverses

As it was mentioned by other comments here... A.H. was avoiding the service in the Austro-Hungarian army. He saw it as weak multinational army. That would be my guess for the reason number one. Reason number two could be daddy-austrian-officer-issues. To spent certain time in the army was obligatory (with very few exceptions, mostly based on poor physical conditions). A.H. moved to Munich right after he got a call-up order. He was investigated for it (avoiding the obligatory service was a crime), but he managed to pass through it claiming he never got the order, because he moved before the mail got in. When the war started... he volunteered to the german army. Many people had idealised fantasies about the war, victories and heroism. A.H. was not exception. And he was pangermaniic thinking guy, he dreamed and believed all german people should be united under the rule from Berlin, instead of being inside of multinational Austria-Hungary, where Germans are only a part of much bigger population. But he was an austrian citizen and Austria was summoning all capable citizens to arms. A.H. had to ask the austrian command to allow him to join not the austrian army, but the german army instead. Which was allowed, germany was ally. So there is no contradiction in his avoiding the military service followed by volunteering. It all perfectly fit.

That video is actually blocked in my country (France) so it's nice to be able to see it via this channel anyways.

It's great he is like every other teache out there, clicking the play/plause button at the bottom of the screen

He didn’t want to fight for a country like Austria-Hungary because of its many ethnicities.

Mr. Terry reacted to Oversimplified - Hitler Part 1.... This enraged his father who punished him severely.

Oof. I can't see the original video in my country (Poland), of course. So I am glad to be able to watch it through you and your commentary.

I remember watching this guy when he first started and he was at 10k and now he’s at 70k that’s crazy Keep the good work up

really love these vids from the points of view of a history teacher

My grandfather died when my mom was entering adulthood. She hasn't become a dictator though.

Thanks for another great vid dude

I love your gaming collection, and now understand why I love history so much

i'm watching it here because for some reason the original video was blocked in my country which i think is extremely stupid!, thanks for doing this, this is important!

He avoided military service in Austria but then he volunteered for it in Germany.

I do enjoy reaction videos from someone who has a backround in the source material.

looks at baby hitler: aww cute looks at adult hitler: aww cute

The original video is blocked in the UK so never got to see this, many thanks.

I remember reading about how, after WWII ended, a sister of Hitler didn't actually believe he was psychotic and murderous. It's a mystery to my ass how that's even possible to deny that.
