You guys should do a video about Witold Pilecki, the Polish soldier who showed "balls of steel" by allowing himself to be sent to Auschwitz, created a resistance movement there, escaped, participated in the Warsaw Uprising in 1944, and was executed by post-war communists for his connections to the Polish government in exile. A man who says, "I've been trying to live my life so that in the hour of my death I would rather feel joy, than fear" has got to have a story worth a video on this channel!

@NathanielHarari 5 лет назад

A classic and very moving, and mostly (but not always) accurate movie about the assassination is Operation Daybreak from 1975. I highly recommend watching it. The battle in the Cathedral was, frankly, epic. They lasted two hours against 750 soldiers who couldn't take them alive, throwing everything against them including flooding them with tear gas and everything else at their disposal. The Czech paratroopers were only armed with small arms and managed to kill around 14 soldiers and wound dozens more before killing themselves before being overrun. They shouldn't be forgotten for their bravery against all odds.

Scary how the environment around you and the people help shape who you become. He became a truly sick person and it is a suprise how he did with his decent upbringing.

@aprilking8777 5 лет назад

But was his upbringing decent? To be taught the sick, blind hatred of anti-semitism despite (more honestly, I suspect, because of) one's own (likely) semitic ancestry could not help but to tear a gaping, ragged hole in one's very soul. He may have had psychopathic leanings from the start; his 'decent upbringing' that engaged him in his family's love of music and cultural niceties covered that truth or held it at bay. If we considers the historic impact and mind set of his times combined with his family's anti-semitic self-loathing, should we be surprised by his blood thirsty psychopathy? Can we call his upbringing decent and still, honestly, deep as out bones "never forget"?

@cakediva7326 5 лет назад

Not really. Both of his parents and grandparents were bigots. I doubt they kept their strong dislike of Jews private. His upbringing was privileged-not decent.

@lindabishop7824 5 лет назад

I am enrolling into faculty of history this year. Hope to use the help of this chanel on the lives of the persons that you've covered. This is very informative, not too long and gives you all the key details on the subject so that you can learn some background on things. Thank you for the amazing work!

One of the most dangerous men to have ever lived, full stop. Fascinating.

@MyFairDinkum 5 лет назад

Thank you so much, Simon for sharing this story. I had very little knowledge about this man, and you really were able to explain everything in your slightly humorous, yet poignant manner given the subject matter. That conclusion gave me chills. Cheers.

Another awesome doco. I'm addicted to your shows!

Amazing video as always! Since you covered Heydrich, who, as you said, laid out the blueprints for the Holocaust, may I suggest doing one about Rudolf Höß? He was the commandant of Auschwitz from the very beginning. There are first-hand infos on him since he wrote an autobiography and I personally find him very interesting because he seems to have had two sides to him - one of a loving family father and one of the "Millionenmörder" aka "the murderer of millions".

Another fantastic bio. You guys should do one on Bob lazar, I think you guys could probably do an amazing job separating fact from fiction!..

Thanks for all your hard work in making these videos biographics. I can honestly say it's the one channel on RU-vid that has taught me so much

Your narration of this was truly excellent. The humour is low key and just the right amount of vague sarcasm for my liking at least.

Man, The battle at the end of Antropoid in the mesadonion church was sooo good. Gave me chills.

@Biographics 5 лет назад

Agreed. Same here.

@Gadget-Walkmen 3 года назад

Anthropoid the film is a fantastic dark ww2 movie and amazing and one of the best definitive versions of his assassinations. It's a fantastic movie and one of the best WW2 films out there.

Maybe you could do Alexander Mach he was the Slovak butcher of Jews and a leader of para-military group named Hlinka guard.

@susanbedingfield4661 5 лет назад

Wow. Great video. I bet Researching these evil people and then doing a video about them takes a lot out of you. It would me

@DebraWomack 5 лет назад

Very nicely presented. Thank you for your very informative videos.

Excellent report. As long as reports like this remain and are broadcast there is hope for a better understanding of what what an evil power in the wrong hands can be thwarted by the brave unselfish actions of a few heroes.

@sonofangron2969 5 лет назад

The Marduk song 'The Blonde Beast' was named after this monster. The film 'The Man with the Iron Heart' about him is also brilliant.

@ZombiesOnYourLawn66 2 года назад

Marduk is what brought me here lol

My Grandad Fran was meant to be assigned to Operation Anthropoid!! Fortunately he was withdrawn from the mission and returned to England after he got my grandmother pregnant.. Wouldn’t be here today otherwise. RIP to all of his friends who never returned from the mission 😔

@benangel6831 5 лет назад

His assassination is the kind of story you look for when you go to places like Prague... something with meaning. Many thanks for sharing the insight on Anthopoid.

@teresadudman505 4 года назад

@jamesarmstrong1101 5 лет назад

I sent you a suggestion for this in March 2018 you said interesting and might do it finally you did. Well done !

@happyplaceforever101 5 лет назад

You should have mentioned Heydrich kid brother 'Heinz Heydrich'. Heinz Heydrich is a very interesting character; Heinz loved is older brother and was devastated after the assassination. After Reinhard's death Heinz went to Berlin to collect his brother's personal items from his offices; and accidentally came across 'Heydrich secret files'. Heinz's wife said after the war that her husband locked himself alone inside a room for days with only 'Heydrich secret files' after returning from Berlin. Soon after, Heinz's began forging passports and giving them to Jewish families. The Gestapo noticed that a great deal of passports were disappearing under Heinz's watch and wanted to talk to him about it. Heinz's thought the gestapo was on to him so he killed himself.

I haven't known this but it seems that he shared a lot with Albert Goering. Both were younger brothers of high ranking nazis yet they both saved many lives during this tragic period.

@BigHenFor 5 лет назад

This was the real tragedy.

@josephwright5140 4 года назад

With so many nazi's being "the architect of the holocaust" I'd love to see like a family tree styled timeline, with rank established to see where orders came from and when. It gets so difficult to follow

@brushnit9212 2 года назад

That would be really helpful. Whenever you hear "architect of the _____" concerning WW2 Germany it usually is the structure under them that built the Holocaust with the other 'architects'
