- Amidst the horrors of Auschwitz, Walter Rosenberg, a young Jewish prisoner, accomplished the unthinkable. Escaping the Nazis’ most notorious death camp with vital evidence in hand, Rosenberg revealed the atrocities of the camp to the world. From his harrowing journey of beatings and near-death experiences, to his meticulous documentation of Auschwitz, Walter’s story is one of unimaginable courage.
Later known as Rudolf Vrba, his detailed report revealed the grim reality of the Holocaust, saving lives and aiding in the pursuit of justice against Nazi war criminals.

About Explainers: From ancient Jewish traditions to the modern State of Israel, we explain it all. Diving into anything and everything related to Jewish culture, history, and even religion.
Understand Jewish holidays, Israeli politics, Jewish diasporic communities, and more. Learn about Judaism in pop culture, debunking myths about Jews, and explore obscure Israeli landmarks. We’re asking questions as basic as “What is the Talmud?”, and as obscure as “How did hip-hop boost Kosher wine sales?”, and everything in between.
About Unpacked: We provide nuanced insights by unpacking all things Jewish. People are complex and complicated - yet we’re constantly being pushed to oversimplify our world. At Unpacked we know that being complex makes us more interesting. Because of this, we break the world down with nuance and insight to drive your curiosity and challenge your thinking.

Throughout history, there have been men and women who stood up and did what they knew was right to save others, regardless of the consequences. That's what he did, and it's our duty to ensure the world remembers, no matter the challenges. Thanks for another informative and wonderful history lesson, as always. 🙌🙌🙌
The book 'Escape Artist' explains his story really well
Yup! Read it last year. A great book though I’d strongly recommend reading it in the brightest sunshine because the content of the book is so dark it’s easier to read while feeling the sun on your skin.
Thank you, @unpacked
I read about this in a book I found in a used bookstore. It was a collection of survival stories and this was one of them. Another story that was in it was a guy that escaped from a Russian gulag in Siberia. As soon as I heard about him hiding in the woodpile I remembered reading his story. He had nerves of steel.
My uncle lost almost his entire family in Holocaust. Those who don't remember the past are doomed to repeat it. Why does it always have to be the Jews? I'll never understand that kind of hate.
make a video on the failures of the red cross during the holocaust and now with the hostages
I ask the same all the time . I just don’t understand it either .
@@AdamDorfman82 Israel doesnt care about the hostages. Heck they probably played a role in staging October 7th.
It’s the God of the Jews they hate, it’s nothing the Jews have done. It’s pure irrational hatred, and it’s growing.
@@epicphailure88 that's complete utter nonsense!!! when they did the first hostage deal they exchange 50 Palestinian criminals in jail for violent offenses for 1 Israeli hostage
so clearly its Hamas who doesn't care about its own people, they aren't desperate at all.
without a full invasion of gaza they would have asked for more than 500 Palestinian criminals in jail for just 1 hostage
You are pushing islamic extremist propoganda - the numbers don't lie
Israel is paying a HUGE price to get JUST one hostages back
Fascinating story. A film needs to be made of Walter Rosenberg's escape.
The Auschwitz Report from 2021 is the latest movie.
@@zui589 that’s a great movie😊!!!! The actors were amazing
"The Bolshevik leaders here, most of whom are Jews and 90 percent of whom are returned exiles, care little for Russia or any other country but are internationalists and they are trying to start a worldwide social revolution" (see David R. Francis', " Russia from the American Embassy, April, 1916-November, 1918 "
The U.S formally recognized the USSR at the height of holodomor in 1933.
White star. Red star.
Hey, I've got an interesting idea for you guys!
You could do a video about how Bulgaria saved its jews during the holocaust, after almost being sent to Treblinka, it's a fascinating story, really!
Anyway, love your videos, as an Israeli of Bulgarian Jewish heritage!
We always love and welcome ideas from our community! Thanks for sharing and we'll definitely explore this story further.
@UNPACKED thank you so much! It would really mean the world to me! My own grandparents were supposed to go on these trains. Sadly, my grandfathers family branch from Macedonia did not have the same luck as he did 😔
+ Albania
And Denmark
@@UNPACKEDI have some other interesting videos for you to make all of which involve the Holocaust. What makes them interesting is that they are very remarkable stories of other Jewish people who fought against all odds to survive. In addition two of them involve Jewish revolts and escape attempts against the Nazis thus showing that even in those darkest times Jewish people found ways to fight back and escape. Yes I know You already made a video about Jewish resistance against the Nazis but people need to know that even in the concentration camps and killing centers Jewish people found ways to fight back and escape. Here are those video ideas.
A video about Rudolph Reder who was one of the very few Jewish people who successfully escaped from the Belzec killing center.
A video about the Sobibor revolt.
A video about the Treblinka revolt.
Amazing story I didn’t know about.
heart breaking to hear...
Walter is proof that you do whatever it takes to fight for your freedom and independence. He was Noah for his time.
May Heavenly Father bless Israel, her people, and those who will fight to keep her alive.
Thank you so very much for sharing this amazingly brave and courageous young man's life.
Good to know he ended up being blessed with a wife and children after going through hell.
Definitely a HERO to be remembered.
God bless all the Jewish People.
Amazing, thank you for spreading his story
Amazing channel, thank you for your awesome work.
For more about Kastner, look up the book Perfidy by Ben Hecht.
May Elohim bless Israel and redeem them
What an incredible story. You guys are amazing. We have been in hell for so long, persecution after persecution from the ungodly Gentile nations. Yet God is merciful and the restoration of the Kingdom of Israel is close....very close. 🇮🇱
You tell the story well. I'm just heartbroken that it must be told at all...
Me too.
Ever since I was 12 yes old , and the Diaries of Anne Frank.
Question 1, why are asking those lame questions with all those proofs? Why did they drag their feet? How many witnesses did they need? Thank Walter and Alfred, you are badass to the core.
Excellent storytelling. Super video... the horror!
6,000,000 מליון יהודים 💔💔
I will never understand human nature, you can dislike somebody but hatred destroys so many innocent lives.😞
There are still plenty of people who would do all this again. Humans can be inhuman at any time.
Thanks for another great video! Am Yisrael Chai! All the haters will pay!
I love and support the people of God Almighty Istael.

May Hashem bless you all. ❤✡️
Hail Zion! Hail to the enlightened chosen! ✋️
I've been through this, still going.
this is so incredibly story .. is there a movie for this story?
Having to hide in a hollow under a wood pile for three days, with gasoline spread all over one's body. So sad.😢
Hair was used mostly for ropes for their navy ships. Made the rope stronger
This man would have been Mossad 💪
As a Bangladeshi I support Israel 🇮🇱
Why they hate u as much the Nazis would’ve
Your country is bad

True or otherwise I don't know but a story I read spoke of 2 who escaped Auschwitz, told their story to a young and influential Hungarian lawyer who couldn't get his head around such horrors, took them to his extensive wardrobe and said 'I have 28 of the finest shirts, how can I leave them all behind"?
Soon after when deportations commenced he was on a train without his precious shirts.
A very brave Man. Thank you for standing up for the victims! Let us Remember the 11 million people estimated to have died in those camps! The Jews, Roma, Slavs, POWs, Political Prisoners, LBGtQ+ Community. May their Souls be at Peace 🙏🙏🕊️🕊️🕯️🕯️
The world is blaming the of genocide because they are trying to avoid our horrific genocide but we will never forget and God definitely never forgets
Bruh nobody forgot. In Europe we got a national day for the holocaust. Stop saying that. It’s like y’all don’t want to look at other genocides. Cause there are multiple going on right now as we speak.
Is it Czechoslovakia not Slovakia back then it wasn't. Divided or was he slav from Poland?
Pale of settlement.
His name was: Rudolf Vrba. NOT Walter!
Can you imagine that there’s probably some antique mattress out there that somebody has kept with the frame that is probably stuffed with holocaust victims hair. That is crazy to think about. You know that mfr is haunted jk
History is sadly trying to repeat itself. Too many Jew haters still exist, and human nature has not changed.
So many gone too soon 😢
No Jew but Jewish !
An event with stories and experiences so true that it needs to be protected by law and censorship.
Wait are you a Holocaust denier? Yikes..
Like islam?
Ozoemena
The Jewish peoples first love by FAR is money then family comes far behind. How can I prove this you ask? Pico-Robertson.
on place doesn't determine an entire group of people
Sad the victims of a tragedy’s descendants are now putting another group into similar misery
Sad that Hamas put the victims and victim’s descendants into similar misery - do you know that more Jews were killed on Oct 7 than any day since the Holocaust? The difference is this time Jews have an army to defend themselves and eradicate their enemies (even if unfortunately some civilians are in harms way)
@sapphicwriter, and why would it be sad that Jews are defending themselves and causing suffering to the disgusting terrorist group Hamas? 🥱
Tell us more about that, will you, dear "I_have_a_lesbian_flag_at_my_pfp_because_I_love_how_Islam_treats_queer_people_like_Ahmad Abu Murkhiyeh_who_was_beheaded_in_the_West_Bank_by_his_own_fellow_Arabs"? 🤯💀

@@UNPACKEDwell said ❤
It's a shame that these kind of stories will always be undermined by the current atrocities by Israel.
It's a shame that the Palestinians, with their atrocious acts of barbarism and their lies, have destroyed their reputation for the next two generations.
Why are you undermining these stories? And you mean Israel’s war against Hamas?
@@UNPACKED 40000 dead palestinian civilians is not the same as hamas why are you undermining a one sided conflict? Why present important historical moments of triumphs for jewish people only to make a snooty comment over a literal fact? What are you saying? Are you denying israel's involvement in the death of the innocent?
Unfortunately and tragically, innocent people die in every war that’s ever been fought. Are you denying Hamas’s role in starting and perpetuating this war? And do you believe that 100% of the Palestinians killed in Gaza have been civilians? Oh boy…
@@saudisinaudis What kind of atrocities? You are talking about Hamas and other Gaza/West Bank terrorist organizations admitting using their own people as human shields? 🤪
