1 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,600 Adolf Hitler plans a new capital, 2 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:38,960 for his new Nazi empire. 3 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,920 Before they finally stop him, 4 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,360 many of his fanatics ideas will become reality. 5 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,000 Hitler's story shows where there is unchecked power 6 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,320 a dictator can lead. 7 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:07,920 Now we look at it with different eyes. 8 00:01:07,960 --> 00:01:12,720 His friends, his fans, 9 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,080 its enablers. 10 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:21,080 Most are Nazis, a little who can be trusted. 11 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,760 But maybe if we see him as they saw him, 12 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:31,240 we can figure out who he was Adolf Hitler and what made it possible. 13 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,720 By the summer of 1940, Hitler was on the way to understanding 14 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,040 his dreams of conquering the world. 15 00:02:20,920 --> 00:02:23,640 His armies swept through Europe, 16 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,080 conquering one country after another. 17 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,640 Most of his warmongers she will later be sentenced to death. 18 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,920 But General Walter Warlimont he lived to tell the tale. 19 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,840 He helped Hitler in the implementation of the attack on France. 20 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,800 How Hitler himself reacted during the French campaign? 21 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,360 He was terribly nervous. 22 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,280 He was afraid of his own success, 23 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,400 which no one could have predicted 24 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:09,120 the success of such integrity in barely a month. 25 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,120 Arriving in the airspace over Paris, 26 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:22,000 I noticed they are big columns of German infantry already 27 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:23,440 entered the city. 28 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:29,800 I felt such joy and elation 29 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:34,200 if I had asked the pilot if it would be possible 30 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,720 make a landing on Place de la Concorde, 31 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:42,000 which was completely without any traffic, 32 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,720 and we landed on the Champs-Élysées. 33 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,760 German power has arrived in Paris. 34 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,000 After the French surrender, 35 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,600 the streets were cleared for one man. 36 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:08,720 I was in the car with him and we started immediately 37 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,160 to the Opera building and told us. 38 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,360 "It's always been mine greatest desire in life" 39 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,960 "to see this building at least once in a lifetime." 40 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,200 And from there we were close He also admired the Eiffel Tower 41 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,520 this technical work of genius. 42 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,760 Hitler always craved glory. 43 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,520 Now it overshadows even the great conqueror, Napoleon. 44 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:13,400 Hitler and his propaganda they made sure it was a huge success 45 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:20,080 campaign attributed to him is like the greatest strategist 46 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:21,640 of all time. 47 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:02,360 My feelings about Hitler they were like he was somebody 48 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,800 a superhuman being between man and god. 49 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:12,880 It is to the German people all the time said that he was sent by providence. 50 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,480 The whole nation believed in it, including me. 51 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:03,200 Now Hitler is ready to inform his own general about his next big idea. 52 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,840 General Walter Warlimont is one of the first to hear it. 53 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,480 Hitler wants to conquer huge areas of the Soviet Union to make way 54 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,400 for German immigrants. 55 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,400 It mobilizes the largest ever assembled invasion force. 56 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,840 We had no fear 57 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:02,240 because we thought we would win a war against Russia, 58 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:08,840 because of the wars against Poland and France, 59 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,720 we ended with the victories of Germany. 60 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,680 But mortally ill-equipped for the onset of winter, 61 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,720 the German advance falters. 62 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,160 This unique recording, 63 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,120 made without Hitler's knowledge, 64 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:14,440 reveals a rare moment of doubt in an otherwise steadfast leader. 65 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,920 But in the face of overwhelming the military strength of the enemy, 66 00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:00,760 instead of giving up, Hitler ups the ante. 67 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,720 Hitler becomes obsessed with the idea of capture 68 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:23,440 a Russian city named after a Soviet leader. 69 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:24,600 Stalingrad. 70 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,240 Johann von Kielmansegg is at the military headquarters. 71 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,520 Hitler's plan leads to disaster. 72 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:11,240 His troops are surrounded and starving. 73 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,480 But he demands victory, 74 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:17,280 even when on the map finds himself in a difficult situation. 75 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,840 But no amount of wishful thinking it cannot change reality 76 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,280 in the field for Hitler's forces. 77 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,720 Hitler left his troops to their fate. 78 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,560 Half a million of his soldiers were wiped out. 79 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,800 After the disaster at Stalingrad, 80 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:53,040 Hitler retreats to his own mountain refuge, Berghof. 81 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,800 One of the few people he sees. 82 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,640 His new secretary is Traudl Junge. 83 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:07,640 She was with him when he heard news of the defeat at Stalingrad. 84 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,920 There was such an uneasy mood everywhere 85 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:18,280 and Hitler himself stared into your soup without a word 86 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,080 and he was very depressed. 87 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:31,520 But it was at the Berghof necessary to eat with Hitler. 88 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,480 And to entertain him, 89 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,720 because he said they can't make holidays 90 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:40,160 but every day a little time to relax. 91 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:47,840 He only liked very light, very simple conversations and he started 92 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:52,080 talk about your dog whom he loved very, very much, 93 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,840 or he started talking about his past successes like, 94 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,160 at the beginning of the Nazi party. 95 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,200 While Hitler hides, 96 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,560 Allied bombing raids they razed German cities to the ground. 97 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:51,800 We have heard reports of destroyed cities. 98 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:56,600 It was really alarming, especially after my old house 99 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,640 was destroyed. 100 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:04,000 I reported, I said how terrible it is. 101 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:08,120 Then Hitler became very honest 102 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:13,560 and his eyes were very fanatical and vowed revenge. 103 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:21,280 "It won't be long, soon I will change this situation" 104 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,240 "and I will stop this cruelty." 105 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:33,840 In his fury, Hitler turns against their usual scapegoats. 106 00:19:51,120 --> 00:19:55,040 Hitler's program of genocide had begun. 107 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:08,200 It sends millions to die in the secret killing centers 108 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,240 and expects his orders to be disobeyed. 109 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:28,120 Henny von Schirach has known Hitler since childhood. 110 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:35,640 After she saw how the Jews leads to death, faces him. 111 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:42,280 Henny suddenly started talk about your experience at the station 112 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,960 when she saw a train full of Jews 113 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,240 and these deported people. 114 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,440 So I told him what I saw. 115 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,200 His reply was: "You are sentimental." 116 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,400 Then there was a terrible fight. 117 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:13,960 He got up, I got up, 118 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:19,680 I said “Sir Hitler, you shouldn't do that." 119 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,880 I thought I could allow me to say such a thing 120 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,520 because I've known him for so long. 121 00:21:26,120 --> 00:21:27,720 Then Hitler said. 122 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:32,360 "Every day 10,000 of my best a soldier dies on the battlefield," 123 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,720 "while the others continue live in camps." 124 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:40,440 "It means that the biological balance it is no longer valid in Europe." 125 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:47,360 His mask fell, and in a friendly way the smile disappeared from his face. 126 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,000 And he got up and went to bed, 127 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,680 and Henny Schirach more he was never invited. 128 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,760 Henny's husband, Baldur von Schirach, 129 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,280 he is also a close friend of Hitler 130 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:06,760 and the highest Nazi official parties in wartime Vienna. 131 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:07,920 Under his supervision, 132 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:13,200 65,000 Austrian Jews was deported to concentration camps. 133 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,160 Did Hitler often use the term 'final solution'? 134 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:18,920 - A great phrase we hear now? - No. 135 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:20,960 - Did he use it a lot? - No. Never. 136 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:22,880 I never heard that from him. 137 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:27,600 But we also saw how much you were close to Hitler 138 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,280 I mean, it must have been really hard not knowing 139 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,200 just from his own views right? 140 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,760 He hated Jews. 141 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:44,360 That's something you heard 142 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,680 almost every time you were there. 143 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:53,320 But he would never tell you directly 144 00:22:53,360 --> 00:22:59,920 which he considered final the solution that is now, 145 00:22:59,960 --> 00:23:03,400 now so often quoted. 146 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:07,560 I mean, I guess so, when Hitler kept questioning 147 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,320 on the number of Jews in Austria, 148 00:23:09,360 --> 00:23:13,240 I mean, that was different the time actually when, you know, 149 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:17,160 the man just didn't have to, somehow not should question the reason why 150 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:18,600 he asked, as it were. 151 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:19,960 Was it so? 152 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,320 What could I do? 153 00:23:23,360 --> 00:23:29,480 I asked when I came to Vienna, 154 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:33,680 "Where are these people going?" 155 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:38,080 "They go to special camps with other Jews." 156 00:23:38,120 --> 00:23:41,160 "Yeah, I mean, what about the food and so on?" 157 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,440 "Yes, they get food for transportation and everything else," 158 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,920 "it's all agreed and so on", you know. 159 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:54,640 SS used to be very nice to answering such questions. 160 00:23:54,680 --> 00:24:00,360 You always thought that are so kind and nice. 161 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,520 And Mr. Frost, one more thing. 162 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:10,440 Now, I don't want to make excuses, 163 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,120 I just want... 164 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,360 The old man has no other interests 165 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,960 but the truth, the historical truth. 166 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:22,240 I was there, I had a job. 167 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:27,440 Mr. Frost, I had no damn time to think about anything else. 168 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:33,400 I worked from day to night. 169 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:55,640 We felt that people they need to know what's going on 170 00:24:55,680 --> 00:25:00,520 and maybe this is a bit typical an experience I had one day 171 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,720 standing in line for vegetables or something like that. 172 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,880 I told the neighbors who were standing around me 173 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:13,600 that they are now starting to kill Jews in concentration camps 174 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:17,400 and it is not true that they are only there brought and that they can live 175 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,280 there as they live here, as they were told. 176 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:21,600 And they said, 177 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:25,000 "Bonhoeffer, if you don't stop tell such horror stories," 178 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,360 "and you will end up in concentration camp" 179 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,320 "and none of us can help you." 180 00:25:29,360 --> 00:25:32,400 "It's not true what you're saying, no should believe in these things. 181 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,920 "You heard them from foreign broadcasters" 182 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:39,600 "and they say these things to create enemies against Germany." 183 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,920 I say, "No, it's not from the broadcaster," 184 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,280 "I know that directly first hand. 185 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,120 "You can be sure it is." 186 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:51,280 And when I got home, I told my husband that in the evening, 187 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:56,160 and he didn't applaud me at all, on the contrary. 188 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,480 He said, "My dear, I'm sorry to say that." 189 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,560 "but you're a complete idiot, what you're doing." 190 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:10,480 "Please understand that is a dictatorship like a snake." 191 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:15,200 "If you put your foot on his tail while you're at it." 192 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:20,080 "He'll just bite you and no one will be helped." 193 00:26:20,120 --> 00:26:22,360 "You have to hit the head." 194 00:26:25,120 --> 00:26:28,360 Emma Bonhoeffer and hers the family belonged to a growing group 195 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,680 members of the anti-Hitler resistance. 196 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,920 Appalled by Nazi crimes, 197 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,360 they believe that Hitler is leading them to disaster. 198 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,360 As the Allied forces advance according to Germany, high ranking. 199 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,440 Officers in the army feel are forced to act. 200 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:52,160 General Walter Warlimont still is located in Hitler's headquarters. 201 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:58,280 It was an ordinary day, but in very depressing circumstances 202 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,840 because of this disaster on the Eastern Front. 203 00:27:06,360 --> 00:27:10,280 We went inside and stood we are around, and Hitler entered 204 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,880 and then the conference began, 205 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,920 and suddenly the door opened again, 206 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:20,800 Claus Stauffenberg entered and he stood there quite straight, 207 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:25,160 and I remember that Stauffenberg had a large black briefcase 208 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,880 which he put under the table 209 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:31,240 and I did not see that it was soon after that he left the room. 210 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,160 It was like being struck by lightning. 211 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:42,680 Everything was burning. 212 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:48,120 I fell to pieces seconds and shortly thereafter. 213 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,520 Hitler was let out of the room. 214 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,680 It was a chaotic scene. 215 00:27:59,120 --> 00:28:01,680 The room looked terrible. 216 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:06,120 Tables destroyed, chairs separated. 217 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:09,240 The windows fell out of their frames. 218 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,000 A picture of destruction. 219 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:18,200 Four died in explosion, but Hitler escaped 220 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,240 only with minor injuries. 221 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,480 Hours later, nurturing right arm sprain, 222 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:28,520 He welcomes the former Italian dictator Benito Mussolini. 223 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:31,400 Hitler told Mussolini, 224 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,200 "The people in the room were killed, burned," 225 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,280 "thrown out the window," 226 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:40,960 "and nothing happened to me, and when I look at it now." 227 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:45,240 "I must say something is protecting me." 228 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:49,480 "I shouldn't die like that," 229 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,760 "and after this narrow escape today." 230 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,840 "I think we'll have the same means of escape." 231 00:28:55,880 --> 00:29:01,680 "in our great common undertaking and we will win." 232 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:06,200 In the beginning it was an immediate, grateful feeling 233 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,320 if he had not been injured, he would still be alive. 234 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,920 But then he got mad at the criminals 235 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,960 who made this plot. 236 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,280 He accused all the generals 237 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:21,640 and he began to claim that they were not faithful 238 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:22,680 and so on. 239 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,600 Filled with rage, Hitler sets out 240 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:01,520 to exact his revenge. 241 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,000 Stauffenberg and the leaders ringleaders were shot. 242 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,680 Hundreds of other suspects were arrested, 243 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,920 tortured and brought to court. 244 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:14,640 By order of Hitler, 245 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,800 The court proceedings are recorded. 246 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,640 Knowing they'll be watching, 247 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,320 a Nazi judge is performing. 248 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,400 While Hitler consoles the victims of the conspiracy, 249 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:55,600 he thinks of ways to inflict maximum suffering to the conspirators. 250 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:02,080 The conspirators were hanged on meat hooks, 251 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,120 and hung from the piano wire. 252 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,400 Their deaths were specially filmed 253 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,960 and photographed for Hitler. 254 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:31,640 I saw what Hitler was like grabbed these photos 255 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:38,840 and how he looked at it with cruelty and joy 256 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:43,640 and I saw a face one of my friends 257 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:48,600 of Peter Earl of York who is executed among these people 258 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:52,040 and I was terribly shocked 259 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:56,800 about how Hitler behaved at that moment 260 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,920 that I had to leave the room. 261 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,280 For most Germans, resistance to Hitler's regime 262 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:09,840 now it seems futile. 263 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,960 Even until the very end, after July 20, 264 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,200 It was just a question of whether you wanted to be a martyr 265 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,160 or look away. 266 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:22,800 What could you do? 267 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:24,960 You know, you couldn't emigrate anymore. 268 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:28,280 You couldn't refuse to be a soldier. 269 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:29,320 What, what... 270 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:32,480 There was nothing you could do, you could just close your eyes 271 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:33,920 and let's say, let's move on. 272 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:35,840 That's how it happened. 273 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,440 While the allied armies advanced towards Germany, 274 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,720 There are bombings destroyed Hitler's war machine. 275 00:34:10,720 --> 00:34:14,120 Armaments chief and Hitler's friend, Albert Speer, 276 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:17,360 he realizes defeat is now only a matter of time. 277 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,320 It was my duty to tell Hitler 278 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,880 that this is the last weapon you get 279 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:27,680 and I told him, what's up no one dared to say 280 00:34:27,720 --> 00:34:30,800 that the war was lost. 281 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:32,920 There's nothing more you can do. 282 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,240 And he told me very bluntly, 283 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,640 "It's not for you to tell me if it's a war." 284 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,040 "Is it lost or not lost, that's my decision." 285 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:41,480 "I won't accept it." 286 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:51,840 Mr. Speer, has Hitler changed? during the years you knew him? 287 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:53,400 Can you see it changing? 288 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:59,200 He changed into the man that he is began to hate even his own people. 289 00:34:59,240 --> 00:35:04,360 At the end of the war, he told me the following: 290 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,040 if this war is lost, 291 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:10,640 the whole nation would too should have been lost. 292 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:27,120 Slowly but surely he was getting weak, 293 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:32,520 and doctors came in and out and one day he didn't get up. 294 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:35,680 It was a very critical situation 295 00:35:35,720 --> 00:35:39,120 on the Western Front and on the Eastern Front as well 296 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:43,160 and the only man who could give the order 297 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,240 and he could change things lying in bed 298 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,400 and he didn't care at all. 299 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:55,200 And some days it was as if Hitler did not exist. 300 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:20,120 As German defenses crumble, 301 00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:24,880 Hitler and his inner circle sheltered are 15 meters underground. 302 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,040 In the Führer's bunker. 303 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:32,800 How did he behave? 304 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:35,280 People say he was crazy. 305 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:36,720 Did he seem crazy? 306 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:41,280 It could be very, very angry and might explode. 307 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,200 He only wanted to hear flattering things, 308 00:36:44,240 --> 00:36:47,120 so he lost his sense of reality. 309 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:48,800 It was around March 310 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:52,880 when is the situation in Berlin became quite hopeless. 311 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:57,160 He was suddenly interested in the model of Linza. 312 00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:01,640 Linz was his hometown and he had special plans 313 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,760 to make it the most beautiful city in Austria. 314 00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:09,040 But I think it was just an escape for him 315 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,760 in this reverie of architecture. 316 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:59,040 On March 22, 1945 317 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:01,760 Hitler rarely appears in public 318 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,320 to honor the members of the Hitler Youth. 319 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:13,080 Even now, the connection between Führer and these loyal followers 320 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:14,560 is uninterrupted. 321 00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:33,800 I told Hitler I was a courier for the army 322 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:36,200 and maybe that moved him 323 00:38:36,240 --> 00:38:39,160 because he was the regimental messenger during the First World War. 324 00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:42,240 Anyway, patted he slapped me on the cheek and said: 325 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:43,600 "Well done, son." 326 00:38:45,720 --> 00:38:48,720 Didn't you
