I wouldn't have survived for even 24 hours in that hell! I have watched hundreds of documentaries and still cannot fully wrap my head around the fact, that this actually happened - not so long ago! Humans truly can be monsters. May the survivors find peace and comfort!
It’s just incredibly hard to fathom the reasons why this happened, I’ve just finished reading about Babi Yar and it’s the stories are totally heartbreaking.....
The amount of shock and horror you would experience in that situation, would break your mind and soul completely. Which explains why he is able to talk about it quite calmly.
The last sonderkommando Dario Gabbai passed away in 2020 ( not sure ) at 97 yrs old. God bless all the sonderkommando’s for what they endured. They had no choice ! Live or Die. What would you do?
Every single keys and circumstance in the world is different, no two cases are the same. There is a lot to be said for not allowing oneself to be manipulated or to perhaps do something that you want to do and blame it on following orders or creating an excuse later.
For the survivors, there really is no escape from the camps. The experience follows them and dominates their entire lives. And to think there are so many who deny that their ordeal was true, outrageously claiming them to be liars. This is the lowest one can get.
The experiences follow the children/grandchildren etc because the survivors act out all their feelings whether stated or not, through descendants and generations.
When I first heard of the existence of the Sonderkommando, my first human reaction was "how could these people betray their own in such a way." My question was answered as soon as I tried to put myself into their position after hearing all of the stories and I was ashamed of even thinking such a thing.
No shame over a gut reaction. I think without the proper context it would even be a reasonable one. But you set aside time and energy to learning more and reached a different conclusion. I find that very admirable. It's difficult to conceive being forced into a life or death situation. To be held captive by tormenters who deny you any moral choices. I'd like to think I would choose death but the urge to survive can diminish the best of us.
@@Mc.Garnagle Too true. I pray I never have to find out. With the world heading in the direction it's in though, we all may soon be seeing a side of ourselves that we never knew existed.
You probably don’t need to hear this, at this point…but, they never had a choice. The sonderkommando’s, as astonishingly horrific as their “jobs” were…., weren’t as bad as the capo’s (in the grand scheme of things). The fact of the matter is that, when you’re reduced to an animal, yet have somehow hung on to the will to live….there’s no exceptions as to what you’ll do to stay alive. They did what they had to, to survive. The endurance, and resilience of the Jewish people, and how they’ve been able to bounce back from this to create and develop the state of Israel, is the story of the millennium. It’s the only story of it’s kind in documented human history.
To Jon M. I don’t know if you have watch a movie called “ the grey zone” with Amira Sorvino and Harvey Keitel. It is about the dilemma of the Sonderkommando. One of the hardest movie I ever watched .
Most of these guys are dead or were expelled from the US in The 90s. To actually to have been A camp laborer or Ukrainian guard Would make the person 100+ at This time. The story on these guys Broke when Reagan was president And his AG ed Meise wanted to Vacate the charges. This didn't Happen because the UN and the Hague got involved. They were Victims also but they cooperated and their fate was sealed. Helped Murder six million innocent people. This had to be done no Matter the circumstances of their Imprisonment by the fascist leaders of Germany. And when They were deported, germany Wouldn't accepted them as Citizens.
They lasted about three months then were killed but many went insane long before then. For one day of life you will do a lot but this was too much to bear.
Richard Devonshire On what basis do you say that? These were prisoners. They either worked or were killed. Thanks to them, we have eye-witness accounts like these.
And just like that a mother with her child,a mother who had hopes and dreams for her children,a human that had a history with stories to tell......a friend,a daughter,a sister,a wife..... and just like that 2 minutes they were gone.......a human being that laughed,cried and had many more memories to make.....standing naked,scared out their mind with a child clinching with so much fear that most of us can’t even imagine........and just like that 2 minutes and even 3minutes gone! It is so unbelievable that this ever happened and yet there are many people that could care less! The scary thing is that it could happen again!!!
The 2 to 3 minutes....many took longer than that, but every second I’m sure was unspeakable and unimaginable horror to slowly be suffocated and poisoned to death.
The fact that mothers died naked holding their naked children, all of them in agony, is something that fills me with unspeakable horror. The idea of holding your terrified child knowing you will be unable to protect it from the suffering that is coming, trying to comfort it despite being utterly powerless to defend it. It is beyond what my mind can allow.
So agree No matter how many times I view documentaries re The Holocaust and hear these heart wrenching survivor stories, I STILL will “never”fathom HOW human beings can be such monsters and kill (kill in any case) but kill especially the way they, the DISGUSTING NAZI’S (SS) did during this terrible terrible TERRIBLE time in history 😔😔😔😡😡😡😡
You mean the Kapo (prisoner supervisor) or Trawniki Maenner ( Soviet POWS used as guards in some camps). The sonderKommando had little opportunity to be abusive - but they would have been brutalized!
In the 1970s and 80s, as many of what Holocaust survivors remained, you’d relatively often hear on the TV and radio of “never forget” and a news story of a vigil. Hardly much now.
My heart goes out to these people who have to still live with these memories, even after 80 years later. I pray that they will receive rest for their souls.
@@tigertiger1699He did that’s why some survived to tell, against all odds. You should wonder why people allow Satan to use them to do such evil but people don’t obey God instead.

We shall always remember, every one who suffered. we shall always remember, in your name, in the name of humanity. as we did in the past, we will remember you, in the present and in the future, we will remember you, every one of you.
In the name of humanity should we not forgive ALL of our forefathers of millenia for what they did or did not do, we are not responsible for them but only for now andhopefully the future, otherwise we remain slaves of that over we we have no influence, a permanently unhappy place.
Valuable testimonies for generations to come and a example of how resilient people can be under the hardest conditions. Heartbreaking if you think about it. Watching this makes me even more convinced we should keep this dark page from history alive; to let people know how dangerous fascism is and that we should think for ourselves instead of following other leaders like obedient sheep. Don't forget similiair situations happens or happenend still today in the world...
Take a look at a book caled Onward Christian Soldiers by Donald Day, he was the only staff journalist north of Berlin in around 1917 through 25 in Sweden, Finland, and the Abltic states,, he wrote of the Bolshevik terror of men being sent of in trains to god knows where and followed by the girls and women after they had been sujected to being the Checkists playthings, and of them being packed like sardines with no food, are both scenarios fake, did the WWII stories come from revolutionary Russia's experience, how terrified were the Germans the same would happen to them?
Yes, similar dynamics can exist even in something as simple as a group of friends allowing themselves to be manipulated into doing things etc. the concepts can be applied in many different settings.
So fantastic that these testimonials exist - I don't think anyone could imagine these atrocities - and what you can not imagine remains unimaginable and unreal. These people talking is our anchor to the past, next to the physical remains of the camps our only anchor to what actually went on in this camps.
Harrowing, i read a book written by one of few who escaped Treblinka. He was a sonderkommando there, it affected me deeply and i think i have secondary PTSD from it. Nightmares, depression and i've been drinking more than usual. Thats just from reading a book.
People can be so dispicable. These people who survived this had the will to do so. They were very smart to learn the routines of the soldiers and because they did, they were able to outsmart them.
Imagine in your life how often you see a dead body. Most people maybe one or two times in a lifetime and we remember those occasions. They’re usually sad and difficult times. Now imagine seeing 3,000 people dead every single day. Must have been hell on Earth. 😐
I can totally understand how some people think the Holocaust wasn't real because it's almost impossible to hear and understand these horrific acts really happened!! Thankfully these people had the courage to come forward and re-live these atrocities with first hand testimonies!!
7:17 I had no idea the ashes were sifted... The amount of times the victims were scrubbed for ANY valuables is absolutely astounding. I assume the sifting was done to search for any remaining valuables. Remains of gold teeth, hidden jewels and other valuables. First, they fool them into bringing their valuables with them to the camp. Then, after death, cut off their hair and pulled out their gold teeth. And even after burning, they're literally sifting through the ashes for valuables. Absolutely astoundingly evil.
Infuriating and depressing. At least people all over the world have easy access to these kind of testemonials in multiple languages and by thousands of different people.
This is the equivalent of someone dying going to the pits of hell ,then coming back to tell the story of what they seen...this poor man...God bless his soul
The horrors of the last war will never be forgotten. These poor guys went through hell . No one should judge them for anything. They wore forced labour. Survival is a human instinct. I vivited YadVashiem in Isreal. I saw horrors like lamp shades made of human skin. Shrunken heads. There is a childrens memorial. Its a dark room with 1.5 million tiny lights. I light for one kid. Can u imagine 1.5 million children ? I cant! Todays neo nazis take note!
I have the greatest respect for these guys, being able to sit down and recount this sort of thing. I don't think I would be strong enough to keep going let alone being able to talk to people in order to make sure the horrors couldn't happen again. Also, I agree that it may be a good idea to turn off comments for the video. It's not really the place for some of the things being said here
@@ribbone1975 You are something else. Half evil, half apathetic. This happened and it was a crime against the Jewish people and all humanity.These witnesses are critical thinkers . unlike you.Many of them had to do terrible things to survive ,but if the did not they would not have been able to bear witness.
Yeah it's really indescribable. When my life isn't going well I listen to a few of these testimonies. Perhaps is in poor taste for me to use these peoples suffering to find perspective, but maybe they'd appreciate it, idk.
@@David-ci1vn Holocaust deniers are just old fashioned Jew haters hiding their anti-semitism behind pseudo historical conspiracy theories to give their prejudices a whiff of respectability. It's dull and nobody falls for it.
It's so hard to comprehend that this really happened when you're brought up in the world as good as it is today. WW2 was a catastrophe beyond imagination. I really hope we won't experience something like this during the 21st century.
The world is not good. These sorts of atrocities are happening now. The only difference between then and now is the scale of the crimes. There are plenty of people who would speak to this if only they could but there are thousands of camps located in China and North Korea where torture and murder is common place. So I really hope you can appreciate where you are, who your with and with the deepest appreciation and respect for all those who fought and died so you will never have to live under an authoritarian madman. Oh wait...for a second I forgot about Trump.
@@dross2172 If the Dems said Trump's an authoritarian madman, I guess it must be true, right? I mean, they would've had no reason to lie or ever try to paint him in a bad light would they? Coz it's not like they lost an election to him that they were sure they were going to win, with all the bitterness to deal with that would inevitably result from tha- Oh wait....
Please do not forget the horror of the socialist gulags and mass killings. THAT could come back tomorrow, because people are still charmed by those ideas.
My heart goes out to all the survivors and the ones that never stood a chance this should never be buried or forgotten this is real and the amount of suffering is beyond comprehension me and my daughter are going to Auschwitz in just over 2 weeks to pay respect to all that suffered there I no it's going to be hard but I want to do it God bless all the lost and the survivors and the ones that sit and 're live this terrible life to share with us are amazing 💔❤
Seemingly a tough guy, his reddened nose gives away Mr Kesselman's imminent emotion. What visual horrors must be at the edge of his memory each time he closes his eyes.
I do believe that the Sonder Kommandos only worked for three months at the most. Their stories of what was happening would be told by them and therefore most were killed and another lot brought in to work.
Kristie C nah they were sent to the eastern front. Also, a camp guard wasn’t a job to brag about within the SS. A lot of these guys were put on these duties coming from desk jobs or other standard guard duties. They weren’t hardened soldiers for the most part
It's easy for some, James...look at the world today. Look at our own warped country. We now have Neo-Nazis and White Supremacists like we never did before. Our Fathers would not be happy. They lost their best friends fighting #$%^%$#! Nazis. We can only do our part to fight that stuff, and remember the Voices of the people here in this clip. We can Do This. Good people are all on the same team.
Such evil was in response to radical extreme leftism but not much was learned it seems as extreme leftism has again lifted its head and again (Sadly) there will be an extreme response.
@@thumbprint7150 Communism and social debauchery were prevalent in society then as it is now, in fact i would say the similarities between 1920s and today are eerily similar. Its what the "final solution" was all about. There will again be a response rightly or wrongly.
Thanks goodness at least SOME of the many videos dealing with this dark passage of human history, allow comments. So many wish to avoid controversy, so they stifle discussion of all kinds. That said, i can understand this natural impulse. Kudos to the USC Shoah Foundation for not shying away from controversy, and permitting comments!!! (Of course i think that all forms of hate speech should be removed... including all forms of Halocaust denial, or defense of Nazi atrocities).
Thank you for this video. I am way not in such Hell, but when he says he survived due to his ability to tell himself to shut up, lower his head, not think beyond the orders given, and last until freedom... he gave me strength. I am obviously afraid, but his words are advice for me. I will also not let evil tryumph without doing my best to outlast it.
A shift was 12 hours? Doing this non stop for 12 hours? Jesus. Sleep and then start again for another round of 12 hours, on and on for 4 months. Jesus. They were usually killed off after 4 months for security and then replaced by new ones.
@AllieCat356 to me, when you're staring death in the face and the almighty chance puts you in the position to save your own life, it becomese difficult, to say the least, to put in practice what you wrote. this is just my humble opinion. having said that, I firmly believe that testimonies such as these are among the most precious treasure for mankind.
“This is what God is you have to be very strong to survive “ 🤯 I couldn’t imagine going through something like this. And the fact that people call it a big lie angers me even more.
The commentator asks how many Sonders there were, a couple of hundred apparently, but it's irrelevant really. Gambia said that the chamber was so full that they were jammed still upright. In which case on opening the doors and having to cut now cyanide impregnated hair and removing gold teeth or many Sonders could get to that wall of bodies, 2-3 at a time?
This people are lions. Even after surviving this they were able to build a country, despite all the enemies surrounding it. Now Israel is one of the strongest rising countries in the world! Proud to be Jewish and Israeli! The legacy of this people and their children lives on!
Watching these testimonies made me more aware to waste less, because these people would of given anything they had left for a scrap of food, a drink of water, warmer clothing,warmer bunks when it was in the lowest below zero weather! I think of these testimonies, and I do not waste as much as possible, cause there may be a time ( really close) that we wished we hadn't wasted so much, and could have those things now. It could happen.
This was 65 years ago. When was this testimony taken? Do the rest of the surviving victims of Birkenau consider the Sonderkommando traitors?This is indeed a rare perspective. Thank you for this video.
Every single case and circumstance in the world is different, and perhaps I we must look at very particular circumstances, because each case will be different in life
These testimonies are so important. I wish videos were around to capture the horrors of the enslavement of Black people in the Americas. I wonder if the world would have the same sympathies for an atrocity that lasted almost 400 years.
Even after visiting this Hell Hole it is still hard to imagine minds of the Germans who put this system together. The survivors must never be able to have a single days peace. It was all over too soon after the war, the perpetrators of these horrendous crimes should have been pursued to the end of their miserable lives. It is to Germanys eternal shame that their nation collaborated on the massive scale that allowed this to happen.
@@mrfireblade900cc You haven't got a clue have you. It isn't hard. Each document is evidence of one or more historical events. Many of the documents link up with other documents or with other evidence such as witness testimony so they all corroborate each other. We aren't in the 70s anymore, all of this info is slowly being digitised and/or databased so these connections are easier to make. All of the documents and other evidence create an overall picture of what happened...try again
@@mrfireblade900ccreally? How about the bischoff report showing the auschwitz architecture? Or the einsatzgruppen reports. Theres plenty of documents- you just chose to say theyre fake.
How in the Hell could or can these fellows continue with life after participating, seeing, this absolute Dante's Hell? Their life must have been ( or is Hell) from this nightmare. I do not fault them in the least. To do this " job" on a daily basis is incomprehensible even if you managed to become a non seeing, hearing, feeling robot.
@HereticLikeGalileo It's not as if the Sonderkommando applied for the job! Locked in underground bunkers beaten by their captors into doing their dirty work... with starvation rations and routine executions in return. In contrast, the Ukrainian executioners got freedom, good food and free booze for assisting the Nazi killing machine - not always under orders, either. The conditions that faced the Sonderkommando and the Nazis' gentile collaborators simply do not stand up to sensible comparison.
And I'll play devil's advocate here.Why are the Jewish " victims" so much more important than any other life . Could you imagine the backlash of saying so and so numbers were killed most of them gentile .

En Isaías 2:4, Jehová Dios, el Creador y Fuente de vida, padre de nuestro señor Jesucristo, promete: "Él será juez entre las naciones y resolverá los asuntos con relación a muchos pueblos. Convertirán sus espadas en arados y sus lanzas en podaderas. Las naciones no alzarán la espada unas contra otras ni aprenderán más a hacer la guerra." Unos de mis vecinos son judíos y yo, testigo de Jehová. Sus corazones valen mucho más que todo el oro puro y todas las piedras preciosas en el sistema solar.

Looks like Sonderkommando (jewish prisoners) suffered more than victims of gassing because they performed painful task and also knew they will be shot or gassed later. Horrific.

we shall always remember, in your name, in the name of humanity.
as we did in the past, we will remember you,
in the present and in the future, we will remember you,
every one of you.
In the name of humanity should we not forgive ALL of our forefathers of millenia for what they did or did not do, we are not responsible for them but only for now andhopefully the future, otherwise we remain slaves of that over we we have no influence, a permanently unhappy place.

Valuable testimonies for generations to come and a example of how resilient people can be under the hardest conditions. Heartbreaking if you think about it. Watching this makes me even more convinced we should keep this dark page from history alive; to let people know how dangerous fascism is and that we should think for ourselves instead of following other leaders like obedient sheep. Don't forget similiair situations happens or happenend still today in the world...
Take a look at a book caled Onward Christian Soldiers by Donald Day, he was the only staff journalist north of Berlin in around 1917 through 25 in Sweden, Finland, and the Abltic states,, he wrote of the Bolshevik terror of men being sent of in trains to god knows where and followed by the girls and women after they had been sujected to being the Checkists playthings, and of them being packed like sardines with no food, are both scenarios fake, did the WWII stories come from revolutionary Russia's experience, how terrified were the Germans the same would happen to them?
Yes, similar dynamics can exist even in something as simple as a group of friends allowing themselves to be manipulated into doing things etc. the concepts can be applied in many different settings.
@@David-ci1vnnot an excuse
So fantastic that these testimonials exist - I don't think anyone could imagine these atrocities - and what you can not imagine remains unimaginable and unreal. These people talking is our anchor to the past, next to the physical remains of the camps our only anchor to what actually went on in this camps.
Harrowing, i read a book written by one of few who escaped Treblinka. He was a sonderkommando there, it affected me deeply and i think i have secondary PTSD from it. Nightmares, depression and i've been drinking more than usual. Thats just from reading a book.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
What book?

People can be so dispicable. These people who survived this had the will to do so. They were very smart to learn the routines of the soldiers and because they did, they were able to outsmart them.
Imagine in your life how often you see a dead body. Most people maybe one or two times in a lifetime and we remember those occasions. They’re usually sad and difficult times.
Now imagine seeing 3,000 people dead every single day. Must have been hell on Earth. 😐
Plus sometimes they came across friends or family members
@@deerheart87 So we're told.
I can totally understand how some people think the Holocaust wasn't real because it's almost impossible to hear and understand these horrific acts really happened!! Thankfully these people had the courage to come forward and re-live these atrocities with first hand testimonies!!
No
Those that say it didn't happen are deniers trying to erase history. It's simple antisemitism
7:17 I had no idea the ashes were sifted... The amount of times the victims were scrubbed for ANY valuables is absolutely astounding. I assume the sifting was done to search for any remaining valuables. Remains of gold teeth, hidden jewels and other valuables.
First, they fool them into bringing their valuables with them to the camp. Then, after death, cut off their hair and pulled out their gold teeth. And even after burning, they're literally sifting through the ashes for valuables. Absolutely astoundingly evil.
Infuriating and depressing. At least people all over the world have easy access to these kind of testemonials in multiple languages and by thousands of different people.
It was a privilege to know Anna and to have had her autograph her book for me.
CAN NOT imagine.
This is the equivalent of someone dying going to the pits of hell ,then coming back to tell the story of what they seen...this poor man...God bless his soul
The horrors of the last war will never be forgotten. These poor guys went through hell . No one should judge them for anything. They wore forced labour. Survival is a human instinct. I vivited YadVashiem in Isreal. I saw horrors like lamp shades made of human skin. Shrunken heads. There is a childrens memorial. Its a dark room with 1.5 million tiny lights. I light for one kid. Can u imagine 1.5 million children ? I cant! Todays neo nazis take note!
I have the greatest respect for these guys, being able to sit down and recount this sort of thing. I don't think I would be strong enough to keep going let alone being able to talk to people in order to make sure the horrors couldn't happen again. Also, I agree that it may be a good idea to turn off comments for the video. It's not really the place for some of the things being said here
+flo.a007 I agree that out of respect for Shoah testimonials commentary should be disabled.

@@ribbone1975 You are something else. Half evil, half apathetic. This happened and it was a crime against the Jewish people and all humanity.These witnesses are critical thinkers . unlike you.Many of them had to do terrible things to survive ,but if the did not they would not have been able to bear witness.
One thing that boggles my mind- this actually happened. Think about that. Real people went through this. A real hell on earth.
Yeah it's really indescribable. When my life isn't going well I listen to a few of these testimonies. Perhaps is in poor taste for me to use these peoples suffering to find perspective, but maybe they'd appreciate it, idk.

It's so hard to comprehend that this really happened when you're brought up in the world as good as it is today. WW2 was a catastrophe beyond imagination. I really hope we won't experience something like this during the 21st century.
The world is not good. These sorts of atrocities are happening now. The only difference between then and now is the scale of the crimes. There are plenty of people who would speak to this if only they could but there are thousands of camps located in China and North Korea where torture and murder is common place. So I really hope you can appreciate where you are, who your with and with the deepest appreciation and respect for all those who fought and died so you will never have to live under an authoritarian madman. Oh wait...for a second I forgot about Trump.
@@dross2172 If the Dems said Trump's an authoritarian madman, I guess it must be true, right? I mean, they would've had no reason to lie or ever try to paint him in a bad light would they?

Please do not forget the horror of the socialist gulags and mass killings. THAT could come back tomorrow, because people are still charmed by those ideas.
Remember the germans did it
My heart goes out to all the survivors and the ones that never stood a chance this should never be buried or forgotten this is real and the amount of suffering is beyond comprehension me and my daughter are going to Auschwitz in just over 2 weeks to pay respect to all that suffered there I no it's going to be hard but I want to do it God bless all the lost and the survivors and the ones that sit and 're live this terrible life to share with us are amazing 💔❤
Bless These Men...
This is a powerful interview. Everyone needs to watch these posts.
We do all do
Please can English subtitles be added? Difficult with accents and those of us who are hard of hearing.
Seemingly a tough guy, his reddened nose gives away Mr Kesselman's imminent emotion. What visual horrors must be at the edge of his memory each time he closes his eyes.
many of the sonder kommandos refused to work and got killed, but a lot worked because their will to live was so high
I do believe that the Sonder Kommandos only worked for three months at the most. Their stories of what was happening would be told by them and therefore most were killed and another lot brought in to work.
Kristie C nah they were sent to the eastern front. Also, a camp guard wasn’t a job to brag about within the SS. A lot of these guys were put on these duties coming from desk jobs or other standard guard duties. They weren’t hardened soldiers for the most part

How can anyone be so Evil.
It's easy for some, James...look at the world today. Look at our own warped country. We now have Neo-Nazis and White Supremacists like we never did before. Our Fathers would not be happy. They lost their best friends fighting #$%^%$#! Nazis. We can only do our part to fight that stuff, and remember the Voices of the people here in this clip. We can Do This. Good people are all on the same team.
Such evil was in response to radical extreme leftism but not much was learned it seems as extreme leftism has again lifted its head and again (Sadly) there will be an extreme response.
@@maxaman64 - Rubbish.

Very courageous survivors.

Thanks goodness at least SOME of the many videos dealing with this dark passage of human history, allow comments. So many wish to avoid controversy, so they stifle discussion of all kinds. That said, i can understand this natural impulse. Kudos to the USC Shoah Foundation for not shying away from controversy, and permitting comments!!! (Of course i think that all forms of hate speech should be removed... including all forms of Halocaust denial, or defense of Nazi atrocities).
People are denying it so u can understand
@@jeanandre6998 That makes no sense but okay.
Thank you for this video. I am way not in such Hell, but when he says he survived due to his ability to tell himself to shut up, lower his head, not think beyond the orders given, and last until freedom... he gave me strength. I am obviously afraid, but his words are advice for me. I will also not let evil tryumph without doing my best to outlast it.
War is an insane idea that results in collective insanity.
So heartbreaking to hear these stories
I would have never survived this hell on earth. BDE👏
Brave men!
A shift was 12 hours? Doing this non stop for 12 hours? Jesus. Sleep and then start again for another round of 12 hours, on and on for 4 months. Jesus. They were usually killed off after 4 months for security and then replaced by new ones.
@AllieCat356 to me, when you're staring death in the face and the almighty chance puts you in the position to save your own life, it becomese difficult, to say the least, to put in practice what you wrote. this is just my humble opinion.
having said that, I firmly believe that testimonies such as these are among the most precious treasure for mankind.
“This is what God is you have to be very strong to survive “ 🤯 I couldn’t imagine going through something like this. And the fact that people call it a big lie angers me even more.
indeed this is something that you can t survive mentaly ,theire heroes for me.
A nightmare.
God bless these survivors.
Can't imagine the way they had to handle this. So sad
The commentator asks how many Sonders there were, a couple of hundred apparently, but it's irrelevant really. Gambia said that the chamber was so full that they were jammed still upright. In which case on opening the doors and having to cut now cyanide impregnated hair and removing gold teeth or many Sonders could get to that wall of bodies, 2-3 at a time?
This people are lions. Even after surviving this they were able to build a country, despite all the enemies surrounding it. Now Israel is one of the strongest rising countries in the world!
Proud to be Jewish and Israeli! The legacy of this people and their children lives on!
We are doing the same thing to millions of innocent animals each day.
Watching these testimonies made me more aware to waste less, because these people would of given anything they had left for a scrap of food, a drink of water, warmer clothing,warmer bunks when it was in the lowest below zero weather! I think of these testimonies, and I do not waste as much as possible, cause there may be a time ( really close) that we wished we hadn't wasted so much, and could have those things now. It could happen.
Please never forget
Mr Venizia is superb and glad he survived.
I Wish there were subtitles in english
These testimonies are live books - true voices /faces of people who survived the evil of Hitlers Nazis! So so sad we should never forget,
respect!
To everyone?
Not enough of the SS Pigs were made to answer for these horrors.
I wish this video had subtitles.
Just pay close attention.

Why does Germany still exist
@@dianevernon8201 nothing like showing the world what a bigoted twat you are
This was 65 years ago. When was this testimony taken? Do the rest of the surviving victims of Birkenau consider the Sonderkommando traitors?This is indeed a rare perspective. Thank you for this video.
I dont think they do, but certainly the Sonderkommando were worried about that.
I never heard from survivors that they regarded them as traitors.
a lot of the other camp inmates viewed them as collaborators. These videos were mostly done in the 90's.
Every single case and circumstance in the world is different, and perhaps I we must look at very particular circumstances, because each case will be different in life
“THE GRACE OF GOD IS UNBELIEVABLE HOW THESE PEOPLE SURVIVED THESE ATROCITIES LORD GOD
These testimonies are so important. I wish videos were around to capture the horrors of the enslavement of Black people in the Americas. I wonder if the world would have the same sympathies for an atrocity that lasted almost 400 years.
LOUDER, C.C.
Even after visiting this Hell Hole it is still hard to imagine minds of the Germans who put this system together. The survivors must never be able to have a single days peace. It was all over too soon after the war, the perpetrators of these horrendous crimes should have been pursued to the end of their miserable lives. It is to Germanys eternal shame that their nation collaborated on the massive scale that allowed this to happen.
Please avail yourself of the report facility where necessary - button to the right of comments. Lots of deniers below. Lots of bean counters.

I do not fault them in the least. To do this " job" on a daily basis is incomprehensible even if you managed to become a non seeing, hearing, feeling robot.
@HereticLikeGalileo It's not as if the Sonderkommando applied for the job! Locked in underground bunkers beaten by their captors into doing their dirty work... with starvation rations and routine executions in return.
In contrast, the Ukrainian executioners got freedom, good food and free booze for assisting the Nazi killing machine - not always under orders, either.
The conditions that faced the Sonderkommando and the Nazis' gentile collaborators simply do not stand up to sensible comparison.
Where were these "underground bunkers" in which the Sonder were housed?
And I'll play devil's advocate here.Why are the Jewish " victims" so much more important than any other life . Could you imagine the backlash of saying so and so numbers were killed most of them gentile .

Me duelen las crueldades y los crímenes cometidos contra mis padres y madres, mis hijos e hijas, mis hermanos y hermanos presindiendo de su etnicidad, nacionalidad, religiosidad... No tienen sentido esos actos infrahumanos porque todo ser humano integra la única raza, la humana. Todos son de carne y huesos; descienden de Adán y Eva, según Hechos 17:26:
"De un solo hombre creó todas las naciones humanas para que poblaran toda la superficie de la tierra, y decretó los tiempos fijados y estableció los límites dentro de los que vivirían los hombres."
En Isaías 2:4, Jehová Dios, el Creador y Fuente de vida, padre de nuestro señor Jesucristo, promete:
"Él será juez entre las naciones y resolverá los asuntos con relación a muchos pueblos. Convertirán sus espadas en arados y sus lanzas en podaderas. Las naciones no alzarán la espada unas contra otras ni aprenderán más a hacer la guerra."
Unos de mis vecinos son judíos y yo, testigo de Jehová. Sus corazones valen mucho más que todo el oro puro y todas las piedras preciosas en el sistema solar.
Él es tan generoso hasta el punto de encargarse todos los miércoles de mis dos recipientes de basura sin que yo se lo pida.
Son seres encantadores. Mejores vecinos no los puedo mandar a hacer..., pues no existen...
