For those of you who asked why this is so important, why are they still making a big deal of this part of history, or why we need to remember. 1)Ever heard the very important say, Those who forget the past will cause history to repeat itself."? 2)A person dies twice. Once when their soul seperates from the body and a second time when they are forgotten. Innocent souls need to be remembered. 3)Empathy is taught by experience. 4)Somethings need to be seen to be believed. 5) We need to understand how evil humans can be. 6) Do not let their pain and deaths be in vain.
bgabriellan 7176 Your "1)" applies to all history be it the war. slavery, child labour, etc. All of the WOKES who want to tear down statues and memorials because they are offended by them need to heed this.
Because there are many people who a) deny this ever happened and b) have no problem with it continuing to happen in many places in Africa, the Middle East, China, and pointedly what hamas did on October 7,2023!
Because it is happening again RIGHT NOW with the same propaganda from Hitler, from Henry Ford and the anti-semitic communities throughout the world including the U.N.
My father had a big trunk that we were not allowed to touch. After he died we opened the trunk and there was all these pamphlets the government gave to the soldiers to prepare them for what the they would see when they came to the death camps. Those pics were absolutely Horrific!! His company liberated Dachau and only told me 1 story of his time there. He said his platoon were walking down a road and came upon a bridge. They were told to go under the bridge and cross the river. When they did they found German soldiers with Jewish prisoners and they were throwing them in the river. His company rescued them and said they were walking skeletons and they were starving so the guys got their own food and gave them some. When they began to eat they choked to death. He said the ovens were even worse! It changed him. He never got over his time there. He became a firefighter when he came home. I can’t begin to imagine the horrors of this place! We weren’t allowed to touch matches or fireworks of any kind! Rest In Peace Daddy 🙏🏻💙🙏🏻 UPDATE - the nazi’s were putting the Jews into what he called “croker sacks” and pushing them into the river. He also told me that “once you smell the stench of burning flesh you never ever forget it”. I’ve always believed that was the reason he became a fireman.
@myralawson Tysm for sharing unspeakable tragic 😔💔 truths. God bless your heroic father and my great uncle nicknamed Moose 🦌🩸🏅✝️🩸🛐🇺🇲 who died fighting Naz8is, and is buried at Margraten Military Cemetery, in the Netherlands, 🌷 where Anne Frank, her family, and several other souls hid for approximately two years.🌷✡️🛐✝️☮️💟
My Dad was a Canadian soldier at Vimy. He never talked about his service. He came home with PTSD after seeing his best friend blown up with a hand grenade. Thank you for sharing your Dad's story. Bless him for his service home and away.
I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?" 76 He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. 77 For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times. 78 Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. 79 And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept the way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear the Most High -- 80 such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways. 81 The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. 82 The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. 83 The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. 84 The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. 85 The fifth way, they shall see how the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. 86 The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. 87 The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they sinned while they were alive, and before whom they are to be judged in the last times. 88 "Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. 89 During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. 90 Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: 91 First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders. 92 The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. 93 The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the unrighteous wander, and the punishment that awaits them. 94 The third order, they see the witness which he who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. 95 The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. 96 The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come; and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. 97 The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. 98 The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom they served in life and from whom they are to receive their reward when glorified. 99 This is the order of the souls of the righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." 100 I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" 101 He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations." 102 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the day of judgment the righteous will be able to intercede for the unrighteous or to entreat the Most High for them, 103 fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." 104 He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The day of judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, 105 so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own righteousness and unrighteousness." .....2 Esdras 7:75 ////////////
@@bettym.6766 Thank you! I’m so sorry your father witnessed his best friend’s death in such a horrific way. I’m sure he suffered terribly from what he saw and went through in the war. I hope he was able to get medical care for his PTSD and found some semblance of peace when he came home. They are all at peace now I truly believe that. God Bless You 😉 🙏🏻🇺🇸 💙🇨🇦💙🙏🏻
My Grandfather, James Otis 'Pop' Ingram was with Patton's army when they liberated Ohrdruf. He never really spoke of it but he did say that "the devil isn't in hell but in the hearts of men."
Ohrdruf was said to be especially horrific. I thank you Grandfather for his service, so we could live the way we do today. ❤ from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
My father also served under Gen. Patton. It was not until he was a very old man dying of cancer that he told me about liberating the camp...he never said which one. He just told me that the remaining guards at the camp heard that the army was coming to liberate the camp, so the guards had the remaining prisoners dig a long trench & then they lined the prisoners up & shot them & they fell into the trench & the guards threw the dirt over them. My father said he arrived there shortly after...he would not say how long after, because he was crying too hard ( can you imagine this..an 83 years old man sobbing about the horrors he saw over 50 years ago. And my dad was a tough man, but he cried so hard talking about this). My father said that him & his fellow soldiers dug up the bodies, desperately hoping someone was still alive but none were. I always think my dad had to tell someone about all of this before he died so someone ( me) could know & pass the story on so it could not be forgotten.
What frightens and saddens me the most about this. Is that history has an excellent track record on repeating itself. The changes started small for them at first. Keep your eyes open.
I was raised in Poland in the 80s-90s. We had mandatory school trips to Auschwitz to learn about history. I wish everyone had the opportunity to visits this horrific place. I’m living in the States now and I met some people that say all of this was fake and I’m just flabbergasted that ANYONE would think this wasn’t real. My great grandfather and his brother died in Dachau….RIP.
There is a reason Eisenhower had the camps so documented. He must have suspected in the future that people wouldn’t believe what took place and tried to prevent that.
@@Slammy555 unfortunately there are so many generations that know nothing about it. Never even knew to forget. There's so many UA-cam channels with young people looking at holocaust stuff for the first time. They're like this was real? That actually happened? Even people seeing Schindler's list. They're like was this real? Was the Warsaw ghetto a real place? Heck, I have three adult nieces that don't even know much about 9/11
People have already forgotten and now there are deniers who hate just as much as the Nazis hated. We are a violent disgusting species and we will soon destroy ourselves.
I was there in 1998. I met a couple of women who were in prison 1943 as children. They showed me their tattoos. They took me places that others didn't go. It was as if you could hear the ghosts of the dead. I don't scare easily, but this place scared the hell out of me. I had a hard time sleeping for at least a month. I still all the years later can't believe what these people went through and what the Germans did to them. Great video it brings back not so good memories.
Back in 2001 when my twins were in preschool, I was working at Ross in Laguna Hills, CA and there was an old man who was sitting down waiting for a family member shopping and I said hi and he showed me his numbered tattoo on his arm and he was telling me he’d been in a concentration camp in Germany and he looked like he was going to start crying. I’ve never forgotten him 😢❤
Tysm 👍 for sharing. At age 11, I read ( and read countless times)the Diary of Anne Frank and met Miep Gies, (who brought 🥑 🥝 food to the Annex) in 1995 in Seattle. God bless you and yours. . .❤🙏✨🕊️
It's what the Nazis did, not the Germans. Not all Germans were Nazis. There were good Germans. Don't forget that many people were too afraid not to join the National Socialist party as not joining could mean they were shot or sent to the camps. Don't forget that Hitler had opposition party members were carted off to the camps as they dared to oppose him.
I can never go there. I cried during the entire video. My aunt was a survivor, but she’d never talk about her experiences there. I only knew because I glimpsed her tattoo one day. I’ve had to learn her history on my own. I think about her every day, along with her family who I never got the chance to meet. The story was kept quiet to “not disturb the children” and now it’s too late for me to ask. She will never be forgotten.
I have been to Auschwitz two years ago and when you walk true that gate you can feel the evil in the air its stil there after all those years many people hate germans and i do to what they did they never erase from there history and every german will be hold responsible for those horrors they are evil people .
Same with my beloved Grandfather and his 3 brothers, all perished at Mauthausen camp in Austria. My poor mother and Aunts who fled from the town on foot in the dark cold winters night, whilst the men stayed to fight... the horrors they witnessed... no child should ever have to see or know. She only spoke of it once to my Father as they sat in the dining room, and I heard it from around the corner, hidden in the Hall way... I went to bed and cried... I knew then and there that the movie "for those I loved" was true. After she passed away, I decided to bite the bullet and search the concentration camp records. There it was... In all its horror. I've never cried so hard in my life. One day, I will make that trip to Dachau then Mauthausen camps and pay my deepest respects to my beloved Grandfather and great Uncles who should of lived a peaceful life in Italy 🇮🇹 ❤
My late father was in the British Army, my mother is German. She told me when the Americans passed through her village, in Thuringia, they posted up photos of Buchenwald concentration camp, which was about 40km away. She was 11 years old in 1945. She told me that the local people could not believe it. She still gets very upset when she remembers what happened. She has a book called the Gelbe Stern. This programme upsets me also. I curse those responsible for what those swine did. They lost their humanity. A truly awful place. May all those who were murdered, rest in peace. We do not forget you.
It’s a lie that Germans didn’t knew. 40km away? They were doing business with that camp in many ways, most of neighboring towns and villages. Your mom was 11 and as a child just wasn’t interested in such details. Every grown up German citizen was AWARE of whole industry of concentration camps, it was free labor. Guess who built thousands of kilometers of famous Autobahn highways?
how ironic, because you have already forgotten, or perhaps never even heard about the gulag camps and who even built those and why, yet you still come on the internets to blabber about how good communist propaganda was in 1945 and even still is today, LoL ? like wake up or something, because its already 2024 and it would be a shame if you lived your whole ignorant life being asleep in old communist dreams
In 1977 I was 22 years old hairstylist. I had a client that had numbers that were tattoo"d on her arm. I asked her why she had a tattoo. She said she was a toddler in the concentration camp and that was what they did to account for people there. I will never forget. Thank you for posting.
@@cuteandfluffypikachu3405 I never had the heart to ask her about her experience. I agree it was a miracle. When I cut her hair she was about 40+ years old and as I said I was 22 in 1977.
When I was in the 7th or 8th grade, we had a survivor come to our school to talk to us. I asked him about his tattoo. Unbeknownst to me, the teacher had instructed the class to specifically NOT ask about the tattoo but I was in the bathroom when that instruction was given. The man showed us his tattoo when I asked about it and it wasn’t until after I was told of my faux pas. It was apparently deeply personal for him. I’m 47 and I still feel sick to my stomach when I think about it.
@@IratePuffin Please don't feel bad about it. He wouldn't have shown you the tattoo if he didn't want to. I'm sure he was there to share his history because he was a survivor and a lot of the younger generation doesn't believe that this actually happened.

And now around the world instead of the followers of the mustache psychopath we have the useless idiots supporting a world jihaaaaad thingy from the followers of the illiterate goat herder who lived in a cave and had a propensity for young girls and destruction. All the Jewish people have ever asked is don't let the holocaust ever happen again . Look at the useless idiots on the streets of the world now every Saturday , again don't let it happen again.
Thank you, for sharing this video..My grandfather was at Auschwitz there is a photo of him standing in full Army uniform standing in front of those barb wired fences… He said it was a horrific scene, just deplorable conditions. It breaks my heart that there are people who think it never happened that is very hurtful to those who experienced it and for those who survived to tell about it…However, it’s not fair, to judge this man for sharing a video.
Do not take any bricks or anything from there. It is all cursed. Bad, bad energy with it. You can look at it. But don't take it home with you 😢😮😢😮😢😮😢😮😢😮😢😮😢😮😢😮😢😮
The remnants from these atrocities should be shown in schools all over the world. It is heart breaking and shockiing to see all of those shoes, bags etc. Those poor innocent people. May they all rest in peace ❤🇦🇺🙏
I agree with your sentiment 100%. Here's the problem though. I know people who would have a major fit if the schools showed that to their kids. But you're absolutely right.
When we arrived at Auschwitz the first thing I noticed was the silence (NO birds) nothing just complete silence. The most heart breaking thing ive ever seen. Berlin is the same and every prison camp should be preserved so our next generations DONT EVER FORGET!!
Thank you for filming this I'm disabled and unable to travel the distance to visit this massive part of world history may all those poor souls rest in peace.
Hear hear! Never again! Never ever again! One of my father's last acts at the end WW2 was helping to "clean up" Bergen Belsen. He would readily talk about his time in North Africa, Italy and France, but very rarely there, which was always respected by me and the rest of the family.
You shouldn't have said you could take a brick from the derelict sites of Auswich. That is wrong Very sacred place to be left alone in memory of all the people who died there.
Do not tell people to take bricks, please. Remember also, the pits in the forest were used to dump ashes from the crematoria. Those wet, swampy pits are literally the open graves of tens of thousands.
if i right, the ash they dumped at round pits what i see on picture,s. i think, where he in stapped is not ash pitt because it strech verry long and small. butt maybe i have it wrong.
The Pits were located elsewhere. This swamp that he fell into is just drainage ditch which is all around the camp.. some of the pits with ashes were also behind the fence in the forest and near the site of the little Red and white house. But i believe the germans opened the pits and got rid of the ashes by dumping them into the river
My ex father in law was in one of the camps as a child. He refused to speak about the camp itself but told of what happened on the way to the camp and after. The horror they endured is something i cant even imagine
I learned a lot about all this from my mother who saw her village of Hamm, Lux, run over by the Nazis-she told us many stories. My father who fought in WWII was a Swiss-Italian citizen who immigrated to USA and couple years later, signed up to fight. He met my mom in Luxembourg. My dad as an officer received a “yearbook” of the war. It was terrible; was mainly photographs showing the horrors of the war. He also told us stories. All was very sad. My parents were deeply affected by the war. I just want to say that as proud as I am to be an American (and first generation), I hope we never have to be in such a terrible event such as this again. They truly were a great generation, bought at a very great price. 🎖️
In the year 2000, I visited my son, was stationed in Germany at Ramstien Air Base. But he was working at the American hospital at Landstule. We went to Bavaria for a week, but the first day, we went to see Dachau. It was an eerie, sad place. The crematorium there was smaller. They had them open, to see into them, no screens, and remains of those poor souls still visible. There was also a small flame on a candle in one with an eternal flame lit in side. I cried here, seeing those remains. The barracks were all gone, but they had rebuild one as an example of where the prisoners were kept. They were wooden construction, no insulation, and a small wood stove for heat. The prisoners were packed into those buildings, with barely anywhere to move around. Bunk beds slept 6 to 8 people to a bunk. Compared to other concentration camps, this one was fairly small and was one of the first ones built. A very sad place, but a reminder of the cruel treatment of the Jewish people. This one held political enemies, gays, gypsies and others the third reicht considered enemies of Germany. 😢
@@kristinethibodeaux619well the same ppl who were victims are now doing the exact same thing to Muslims. So guess what worse than being forgot. It is being copied by the same group it happened to. The irony of becoming what you once hated!
When I was in fourth grade my father made me watch a documentary about the Nazi concentration camps. My mother was furious because she thought I was too young. At the end of the documentary (which was very graphic) I was crying and told my father I hated him. He said you don't hate me, you hate that now you know.
As I began to watch this I asked myself and I asked out loud to God is my son too young to see this? 😢 I'm going to talk to my husband and I'm going to pray which is the most important thing. Praying for discernment knowing exactly what the right time is for this, my son is 11.
You say that you don’t want to be disrespectful then you secretly film in the crematoria where, out of respect, no filming is allowed and then you sneak into parts of the camp that you are not allowed to go into. Clearly you are more interested getting “Likes” than you are in being respectful. I think that is absolutely disgraceful. Just show some respect!
I was on a tour there last year & you are allowed to film in the crematoria. The only two places they ask you not to film are 1) a building similar to the one with the shoes, that has all the human hair found there. It was waiting to be exported, when the camp was liberated. 2) the torture chambers where prisoners were forced to stand for hours or days. These are so tiny, I don't think you could film them anyway.
0:39 that people are steeling pieces of wire from that place, bothers me. You never EVER take something from a memorial site! Looks like you messed around in a sacred place, and got a subtle reminder...
Wow....the memories came flooding back. I was a teen living in Europe- the UK and Germany in the 70's. My mom arranged a tour of the same....and seeing the stacks of shoes, eyeglasses, denture plates, the ovens....the railway cars to the "showers"....the BRUTALITY, it NEVER escapes you. I also saw the carnage in France, WW-1, at Verdun. Mountains of bones, skulls, weapons, mustard gas munitions, and white crosses for a far as the eye could see. I think both sites should be required viewing, learning about, and....remembering.
I visited Auschwitz- Birkenau in 1996. In 1944, 68 members of my grandparents family perished in this camp, coming from Slovakia and Hungary. Only 9 years before I was born. I never get over it.
Never knew about those wires being electrified. Evil as evil can be. To think that when you look at one of those women’s shoes - I’m thinking of how that woman tried on that shoe (pair of that shoe) in a store looking at how they flattered her and never in her wildest dream could imagine they would end up in a huge pile after she had been starved, abused, neglected, sick, tortured and slaughtered. This video should be shown in schools.
I took the virtual tour online 2 years ago. It was excellent and very moving. But what you share here feels even more immediate and harrowing. Thank you for this vital lesson in never allowing this part of history to be repeated. May the dead rest in peace and honor and may their memory be a blessing.
I went to school in belsen village. Our junior annexe was formerly the hospital for the concentration camp. Because of the lime used to despose of the bodies there were no worms in the soil and no birdsong. That made it eerie. A schoolfriend visited the camp with her family including her three year old little sister, who didnt know what the place was. They were just walking around gardens with mounds that contained all the bodies.The little sister began to cry saying 'mummy, mummy let's go, the devil's here.'
Pros: I get to see this via video (for free) and experience something which I may not have enough money to ever visit. The quality of the video and audio was good. Cons: the presenter going into places which are prohibited as well as inferencing one may be able to take a brick or memento. While I assume the intentions are to give his viewers a bit extra during this tour, it ultimately is disrespectful in the end. Please, for any UA-camr, do not feel you must do things like this for views and likes, it’s not worth it.
I would add that he’s not quite accurate in some of what he is saying. When he broke off from the group to show the chimneys and the bricks… he said that they were from the crematoriums. Those were barracks that were either never finished or were destroyed. Those chimneys were from the furnaces which were only source of heat for those living in the barracks (there were other completed brick barracks that give us an idea of what they would have looked like. The crematoriums were much larger. I would encourage you to check out the Auschwitz museum website, they have a lot of free resources and I believe some video tours as well. This video lost credibility for me when he went from “people are stealing barbed wire because they want a piece of the camp, and that shouldn’t be done” to encouraging people to take bricks… also going into areas that you shouldn’t be going into… it’s not only disrespectful but it is also a safety issue. When I went for a Study-travel course in college we had a tour guide who took us to places that most tours don’t go, but he made it very clear to stay on the pathways. It’s a matter of respect for the victims who never left, but also safety.
@@AlexHaan not to mention the Museum has come out and specifically called this video out for a multitude of reasons, the least of which is him not having the permission to do so. From my understanding, taking pictures is allowed without prior approval/permission (at least this was the case when I visited back in 2009), but for videos (especially ones that will be uploaded to social media) the person must get prior approval. This video is full on inaccuracies (also something the Museum brought up).
@@CelticStar87 Yeah I was there this summer. This video really creeps me out, not because of the obvious content, but because of the stuff the videographer did. Not cool at all and very disrespectful.
A few years ago we visited Dachau. No words can describe visiting a place like this. I feel like if you try to describe it it might sound like an over exaggeration but if you don’t describe it enough, it’s an injustice. Anyway, my mom and I were walking from the crematorium building back to the main entrance when we suddenly heard emergency sirens. I turned around and saw big, dark plumes of smoke. There was a civilian fire (in the town outside the camp walls) but the rising smoke looked as if it was coming from the crematorium smokestacks. It was like a split second rip in time. My mom and I looked at one another and stood frozen. It was very creepy and so sad.
@kristindewitt9059 Poles constituted the largest ethnic group of prisoners in Dachau 2720 priests (among them 2579 Catholic) held in Dachau, 1034 did not survive the camp. For first two years in Auschwitz concentration camp were only Polish prisoners. The first transport of Poles reached KL Auschwitz from Tarnów prison on June 14, 1940.
My dad was one of the troops that liberated Dachau. He had taken photos because command wanted proof of the atrocities. He was traumatized for life from the experience, I can only imagine how much worse it was for the people that lived thru the camps. 💔😭
“Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” - Winston Churchill Once people stop seeing other people as human beings, they have become beasts.
I visited in June '78. I remember the bus ride across the country, going thru all these deserted, overgrown villages. The camp was in better shape. The Poles only did modest displays and exhibits. No plexiglass either. The murder wall was deeply pitted from bullet impacts. The gas chambers and barracks were still standing. The Poles had a way of taking a B&W photo of an area, blowing it up, then placing it so it showed from behind where you were standing. Like at the entrance. Then you turn around and see the guard tower the photo was taken from and you are standing where the prisoners were in the photo. The Poles had a little movie theater inside part of a building. Inside my classmates and I were sitting towards the back, watching the film. I heard 3 blood curdling screams from behind me. Like their entire souls were pouring out in the scream. Sounded like a man, woman and a boy. I turned to my friend but he didn't hear it. Very negative energy there. Even tho it was a warm, sunny June day it seemed like it just drained everything from me. It is Darkness. No desire to ever return there.
My Mother was an U.S. Army nurse who served in the European Theater of Operations during World War II. After the end of hostilities General Eisenhower ordered all available U.S. troops to tour death/ Concentration camps in their sectors. Mom was a 3rd Army U.S. nurse. In her sector was Dachau. She told me it was simply Horrific. I have her signed pass in her scrap book.
@@Doobiepuu it really scarred my mother. She also took care of a badly burned German pilot before the war ended. She said he was so young. He died 3 days later. She prayed over that boy for the rest of her life. Mom said the suffering he went through was just unimaginable.
@@crazygame2724 Many people suffered during that war... again God bless your mom for doing her duty to her country and having the kindness to care of that boy regardless of who it was.
Looked up Alice Frank (a name on one of the suitcases, see 3:36) in the database of survivors and victims, and she was a survivor. Just thought someone else out there might find that cool to know too.
I visited Auschwitz-Birkenau in 2003 and it has always stayed with me. The energy that area gives off is incredibly eerie. There are very few animals, even insects seemed to be few and far between. You wouldn’t need to know about the Holocaust to FEEL that something horrifically evil happened there. I’ve only ever been to one other place that had the same energy as Auschwitz and that was the 1066 Battle of Hastings Senlac Field where the biggest battle took place…so much death. 😢
I was thinking of the energy this was projecting and thought there is NO way I would be touching any of the bricks or walls in this place. There is a reason he fell in that swamp area I believe.
I worked with a woman once who visited that field in Hastings. Someone from the tour group said " let's see who can cross the field and back again!" As soon as people walked they begun to feel uncomfortable, scared, and nervous and one lady thew up. Everyone looked at one another, turned around, ran back to the bus and told the driver to get the hell out of there...
I went to Auschwitz a few years ago when I was first visiting Krakow. The first thing that strikes me about a visit to Auschwitz and to Birkenau is that it is becoming a tourist attraction rather than a site of mass murder. Now I accept that people will want to visit and local companies / guides etc will provide tours but I was amazed by the behaviour of so many visitors. Coach and minibus parties of smiling couples and children happily snapping photos by the gate of Auschwitz 1 or sat on the tracks outside Birkenau having a cuddle, various football teams stickers stuck all over the bins and signs. All that was missing was the gift shop selling ‘I ❤️ Auschwitz’ T-shirts, and the onsite cafe and bar. I just can’t help feeling that many who go here miss the point. The chap doing this video does a pretty good job and genuinely does seem respectful although I can’t say i agree with him wandering into places where he shouldn’t be or suggesting rubble should be pinched. I have been to a few other camps as well where I felt the respect was more reserved. The most haunting place that I ever visited and one that many readers won’t know about was Ovćara near Vukovar in Croatia where war crimes and cold blooded murder was being committed in 1991.
Yes I agree We also made a lots of photo's but only for to remember that this can not be happening anymore, we where also with a group but we all behave like we should be respectfull to the people that died over there. We had a groep leader that talked about the photo's and said try to remember the photo's because in 30 min or so you are going to be in the place where these photo's where shot. She also told the story about some of the people in the photo's and of the people that have saved some others. We had also a group that came later and indeed there where people thinking his is fun to do. I came with my wife and 2 daughters age 5 a 2 and we have tried to tell our oldest daughter what happened over there.
humans will be humans, what do you want them to do? i think the tour is screaming for you to enjoy life while you still have it...i think you want to take offense. these are different times and you cant control how other ppl act. if you want to be respectful and mindful and be in a negative mindstate i understand but youre not responsible for how others act so take a chill pill.
My uncle Joe liberated a camp in Germany. As they were going through the camp he had his men round up every guard they could find. He was walking over to the group and he heard a man say, "Kill them, kill them all" He was a Jew from Chicago and he had traveled back to Germany just before the war with his mother and aunt. He got turned in by a member of his family who was in the DBM (Girls Hitler Youth) He originally was forced to write propaganda because of his American style. Then he was sent to the camp. My uncle stopped and said, "By the laws of war I can't kill a prisoner, but you can" and he gave him his .45" He said "I'll be in here.' He walked up to and picked out a guard and shot him once in each arm, once in the upper leg and the last shot right in the nuts. He did the same thing to another but shot him in each foot and then in the throat. One of the Sgts told my uncle. "That guy showed no emotion, only a smile when the guards screamed as they were hit."
My Polish Grandfather survived this camp...My prized possession is a knife he somehow managed to keep hidden there and brought to Australia with him after being Liberated
Your Grandfather was very strong to have survived such a horrific place . How incredible that he managed to keep the knife hidden and now you have such an important possession of your very brave grandad. Sending you my warmest wishes. ❤
@@TheBassline01 always cherish that prized possession, though a sad reminder of what happened all those years ago, it’s a treasure, God Bless your Grandfather, and you! 🙏🏻♥️
Thank you for taking the time to show us this place that should be shown to everyone not just to remember the people who were murdered in the most horrible ways but to not forget what was done so that it doesn't happen again.
God Bless all the innocent people that lost their lives in the holocaust,it’s the most horrific thing I have ever heard of.I went to Auschwitch and it was absolutely disgusting,it broke my heart,it should be taught in schools and never be forgotten,may you all rest in peace,xx
especially when there are people who can watch this and say "humans will be humans" and visit a place like this and be light hearted. It is really sad that there are people who could tour a place like this and not be affected-deeply. Saying that we can't control other people's actions is a cowardly cop out that almost ensures that something like this will happen again.
I have visited Auschwitz Birkenau ,where Jane Haining, a Church of Scotland missionary was murdered. Along with the Jewish children she helped to look after. She was Scottish like myself. Coming from the Scottish borders, unlike me who is a Highlander. All possible steps must be taken to prevent this sort of thing recurring.
I'm also Scottish fae Dumbarton and thank you for bringing Jane Haining's life story to others. When most people think of the "Concentration (Murder) Camps" of the National Socialist German Workers Party, The NAZIS, they think of the Jews who were Murdered but there was many other groups and people who were Murdered and many others who died in heroic circumstances like Saint Maximilian Kolbé who also has an incredible life story. Thank You for keeping their stories alive in history.
@joseywales3789 facts..there were alot of other that shouldn't have been there at all..had nothing to do with them..I studied camps in the early 1990s
My grandfather was a Crew Chief in the US Army Air Corp. His aircraft flew dignitaries, officers and media to concentration camps. His dicription is far worse than what we learned. It was horrible but he wanted his grand kids to know the truth.
I am of German Christian heritage (Catholic) and I am overwhelmed by the cruelty that the Nazi's inflected upon the Jews. This place must be preserved so that the atrocities committed here will never be forgotten. I cannot imagine the grief and pain that must be felt by the families who lost their loved ones here. God Bless Them.
I don’t think there is any danger of the holocaust being forgotten as it reported on the extermination has to a degree been hijacked as an unique crime against the Jews which it wasn’t but has time goes by there is an increasing body of people who are aware of the other people who were murdered also, this seems to be forgotten which is more than a tragedy.
Leucter report says the places chamber couldnt have functioned as claimed. Recon photos show the shower room built post war by soviets. Red cross reports confirm the number barely broke 250k losses. From typhus mostly. Thats why there are pictures of emaciated individuals but never the red blemishes indicative of hydro sianide poisoning.
To those who say that the holocaust didn’t happen I always ask this….there are graphic reports and photos from all sides in that conflict. Stories from survivors, surrounding neighbors, and troops from every nation, who left personal records of the holocaust. Reports from people who looted houses after residents were deported. People from many nations who saw and heard the trains, shootings etc. They are still finding remains from mass shootings in places all over Europe. So my question is this - are you saying that people who fought each other savagely would suddenly decide to cooperate in a big conspiracy to make the whole thing up? And where did all those millions of people go? Use your brains people. Go to a concentration camp, read stories and watch videos from US, British, Russian, French soldiers etc. For what reason would all those people make this up?
Nobody says it didn’t happen it’s the numbers that don’t add up,go and read some books from the defeated people of Germany and also look at the real reason this war started,there’s a good UA-cam channel called “ peacedozer “ ,he doesn’t take sides just delivers the facts you can make your own mind up,good luck
29:14 You should NOT be encouraging people to take bricks and other souvenirs from Auschwitz. That's disgusting to suggest people should, regardless if your intent was serious or not. People who take souvenirs or graffiti Auschwitz are disgusting.
Yes, thank you so much for showing those of us who could never get there to see these horrible places. I am of german descent, my Great Grandparents left Germany before the 1st World War. They saw and knew what was coming so they left. They didn’t want any part of that hatred. I lost several of my jewish relatives to these Camps. They didn’t think things could ever get so bad. My Great Aunt was in this Camp. She made it out alive but lost her two Children and my Great Uncle in this Camp. She’s gone now but every time I see something like this I think of all of the horror see saw and the losses she suffered. God forbid anything like this ever happens again. Man’s inhumanity to Man will always exist, but hopefully nothing like this ever happens again….
This is horrific , but it should be preserved for historical reasons to show all the schools throughout the world, the history of this place should be forever told , so nothing like this is ever repeated .😢
Don't you think this man did a good thing by showing us places that aren't allowed to be seen? That saves less respectful people from going there! I'm glad he took the chance to show us. Thanks.
@@WPRanchLLC no not at all. This is a sacred place. theres no reason for him to be in places he doesn’t belong. They have things roped off for reasons like safety. It was a good video until he started to trespass and say it’s ok to take a brick.
Falling into the swamp was Karma for not only going into restricted areas but for telling people to take a small piece of brick from the crematorium. In my opinion,it was a sign of disrespect to the hundreds of thousands who lost their lives in such horrific circumstances. You disrupted grave sites ( crematorium & swamp) and the souls of the deceased were upset. May all the souls that still linger be able to finally pass over into a peaceful place they so deserve. Know that your stories continue to be told and you will NEVER be forgotten!!!
I totally agree. The whole point of not going into places is to preserve it. You told us 4 times that you were not allowed in the sewage plant as it was breaking up beneath your feet. How about 5000 a year do that.
@@davidcook7887 I watched a video from a tour of Auschwitz showing all the suitcases, glasses,crutches,artificial limbs,etc . The area of all the shorn hair was off limits to be.posted but someone did it anyway.I just don't understand the complete lack of respect.
I visited Dachau many years ago, and I noticed a similarity in this video. The silence. Beautiful sunny day, very close to the trees...and no birds. There is a heaviness in the air that you can feel. At least there was at Dachau. Once outside the walls, it was gone.
Same experience here too. Bavaria is full of birdsong - except at Dachau. We might wonder what phenomena occurs there beyond our perception that birds and animals can sense. If we discover it, we might unlock a mystery of the universe and understand much more about ourselves. That knowledge might avoid wars, brutality, and bloodshed. At least, horrify or chasten us into avoiding Holocausts.
Dachau was their model for the internment camp systems which was supposed to have been a social work training program, but turned into mass death as the final solution for they ran out of resources only going insane. Then Hilary Clinton had the gumption to made an official announcement late last year about preparing deprogramming camps for MAGA extremists. That big bell rings a most stark warning down through history as long as the electricity is on there.
Not only people forgetting it but even praise the nazi, few day ago i came across the comment on video of excavation of the fallen German soldiers where some "man" explain how nazi soldiers where real gentleman to civilians and other commented that Partisans where very brutal, some people should get banned from internet for life, insane.
My great grandfathers community was decimated from Ungvar to Auschwitz. He left in 1883, and the reality that none of us would be here had he not left is not lost on me.
I visited Germany in early 1992. And the 18 days i was there, I felt this heavy sad feeling there , this coldness and Im not talking about the weather either. I couldnt leave Germany fast enough. When I landed back in the USA, Ive never felt more happy and relieved to be home.
@@fayecox9401 well said, and it’s important to remember that there were over 1000 camps in WW2 not just the well known ones. I would have thought that the lessons learned from this would prevent similar things happening but in the 70s the S21 prison in Cambodia was a death camp of equal horror, then the events including the last few months tell me that nothing has really changed. Humans are still able to see other humans as worthless based on ethnicity, I feel there is no hope for mankind
The Holocaust has always fascinated me for the utter cruelty, brutality and sheer inhumanity of the Nazis on all those innocent people. No matter how many books written by survivors of the camps, the history of the Holocaust I read, or TV documentaries, films or YT videos I watch, I will never be able to comprehend what happened during the Holocaust. I feel actually seeing Auschwitz Birkenau for myself would help bring what I know about the Holocaust together, but due to my bad health, that is something that will never happen.
Ever see footage of prisoners talking about the nursary or the pool? Putting plays on and playing soccer with the guards!? How about the red cross reports of how 280k people per8shed. Mostly from supply shortages and typus spread bio soviet weaponized lice? Didnt think so.. being passionate about a lie without doing investigation of the claims is pathological.
I'm with you. But, you know, probably a good thing we CAN'T understand how those monsters could do what they did. If we understand, does that make us susceptible to perpetrating such horrors?
For many years we were unable to find my mother's family history as records were destroyed, and they never wanted to talk about it. As an adult I found that many family members who stayed and did not come to the U.S. were murdered in concentration camps. My heart sank. I did the DNA test and managed to find living relatives from her side in Israel, and my heart soared, a few made it.A single candle amongest darkness can light a room.
Thank you for taking the time to share this. An aunt of mine went many years ago long before it was so”organised “ she told me there were no birds just this silence she lost her voice for quite while after having been there.. Now it feels almost obscene,people walking round and talking imo too much like a tourist attraction….💔💔💔
@@QueenofArgyle2525The evil will still get through to a few. Even just one realizing what your neighbors could be guilty of is enough. Evil Nazis. Heartless “things” not even human.
@@amybahner6511 Exactly. It took me a good 5 months from when I first "experienced" A-B, for me to actually book a tour that had me return. March of the Living was there during my second "visit". Can't even begin to explain how healing that was to my entire being.
I don't understand how people can deny such a thing happened. You can feel the horror and sorrow, just by seeing it through screen. It must be overwhelming being there in person.
My husband and I were there in April. They specifically told us NOT to take any rocks or pieces of brick with us. Hundreds, if not thousands, of people visit every day. Imagine if every person took something!
If you want exact picture of those horrors watch 1979 documentary with survivor Kitty Hart when she revisits this camp. People must understand that those chimneys were almost never used, only if a prisoner happend to smuggle something to catch a small fire in them, also 21:54 these wash rooms were far from a comfort, water was scarse, no hygiene at all, most of these barracks were over crowded with hundreds to thousand people and there was no way to wash anything let to drink. Access to water and toilet was able only by buying it with items from those prisoners who were appointed to guard them or to work a chores, for example dumping toilets. Really terrible, we cant even imagine what horrors they set up for people there.
Thank you for sharing this. I'm 73 and hadn't seen all of this detail. As I watched, I found myself holding my breath and shallow breathing, realizing how evil humans, of which I am a part of, could be. The pain and the hopelessness these people had to live and die through is unfathomable. The human race will forever have this darkness running quietly throughout our history, no matter how civilized our species may become.
We r becoming technolised. Our civilized behavior is becoming less day by day! And at a speed and antisocial depth I couldn't have imagined. I personally feel that certain groups actually want this past to become reality. Just saying!
I am 56 years old and as a youth in the 1970s i met some Hebrew people that was there in Germany when all the evil happened. I never understood their pain or sadness or what they went through until i got older and read books on the 3rd Reich. I gained more understanding when technology like we have today came about and i got to watch people like you sgow these videos . Its sad and something that should never have happened. Oddly i will get to see the anniversary of 100 years of its evil . My uncle John fought against the german army there .
How are there people in this world that claim this didn’t occur in our history. We need to continue and teach our youth this indeed did happen and we should learn from our past that nothing like this should ever happen again. Thank you for this video.
Yes, the people who deny it happened also make it very difficult for people who certainly do not deny that it happened, but who want to make it known that nothing there is original. The camp was completely destroyed immediately after the war and it was some years later that it was carefully reconstructed with the help of people who were there in order to make it a faithful reproduction. Sadly, people who want to educate the public of this are labeled deniers. It’s an important historical record to hopefully ensure it can never happen again.
The swiss red cross did reports during the war and was documenting soviet atrocities since 40. Note: 280 losses from typhus and supply shortages mostly. It couldnt have happened as claimed cuz you cant cremate a body in 20 mins. And ground oenetrating radar shows 0 mass graves.. nvm wooden shower doors on a room built post war by soviets (recon photos show). I cant believe how little ppl care for the truth.. you're all animals like the Js claim.
As a elderly male i still find it incredibly difficult to even begin to understand how a human can do this to another human, and feel nothing. 98% of the perpetrators were not mad, not psychopaths, in fact most were just everday normal people who had normal jobs before the war, some were highly intelligent. This is what is most terryfying to me. Is they carried out these horrific atrocities and thought nothing of it . Its happened once and it can happen again unless we stop it. Humans are capable of anything. My prayers and love to those 6 million who list there lives in this most unimaginable horror ❤❤
Today it’s called the McDonaldization of a society. Each person has one small meaningless task. Each task is nothing individually, however the whole process is dehumanizing death.
Man’s inhumanity to man,I’m 75,my very first experience with the Holocaust was in the 5th grade ,we sat in the multi-purpose room and watched a film about it,I will never forget it. Years later I wouid visit the Simon Weisrnthal museum in Los Angeles with some colleagues,it’s an experience I will also never forget,at the beginning of the tour was one of Anne Franks diaries under a Plexiglas box ,we were also given a plastic card ,at the end of the tour we were able to place the card into a machine and a paper came out that told the story of a Holocaust person ,but at the very end of the tour we met the loveliest woman a Holocaust survivor ,she spoke to us for a few minutes ,then showed us the tattoo on her wrist ,I was overwhelmed with emotion. My nephew loved in Germany for five years ,he tired of the concentration camps ,be said he had never felt the presence of evil more in his life ,and some people still say or wax a hoax ,shame on them .
@erasedfromgenepool.4845 you should study WW2 nazi concentration camps people burned alive in ovens gassed in showers starved all because they were Jewish
Why? As a reminder of how evil people can be so no one ever forgets what happened. History books can be rewritten and changed. This is evidence that cannot be rewritten. It is proof of what actually happened. A permanent reminder.
Why? Evidence. Proof of a crime so outrageous that people might not believe you without tangible proof. History books can be rewritten to suit the author. This must never be forgotten.
Thank you for showing this video of the Nazi Concentration camp at Auschwitz. It is a terrible, inhumane to treat people like this. We should Never, Ever forget this sort of inhumane behaviour. This terrible act should Never, Ever be forgotten. 💗🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for sharing this intense experience. I appreciate your respect and willingness to go to areas alone to share the area completely. You've filmed areas I have never seen before. It was very moving to see all this.
I agree, and there are so many bricks, that if someone wants one to keep this in their mind and be a person who cares, I don't see that as a bad thing. I don't think you did this for "likes", I can hear in your voice that this affects you deeply and that you didn't do this for "fame "or attention, it seems to me lame you are sharing and I appreciate that. I he even many documentaries, but for some reason a recent one conveyed just how big the railway site is. I had never grasped that before. Your video is similar, it gives a sense of space and how vast the camp is. As I said it gives " a sense", there can be no way to convey the entire experience, which is one I am not sure I would ever want to do. So, thank you for sharing this and for being the kind of person the world needs more of. We desperately need more people who give a shit about other people and have a sense of right and wrong and who don't ignore bad behavior.
Oh, my God...the shoes...All of those people not realizing what was in store for them. Absolutely heartbreaking. When I was a nursing student working in a nursing home, there were three gentlemen there as patients, all Jewish, and all bearing camp number tattoos. They had stories to tell, and often needed comforting when their losses got to be too much.
No matter how many times I see videos of this place or any of the other camps, its still so heartbreaking. No one person can ever begin to feel the pain and horror that the victims felt...May God Bless their souls. Thank you so much for soiling your shoes for the making of the video brother 😆 ❤💯
How incredibly moving those exhibits of peoples belongings are. I was struck by a sense of sonder taking in the incomprehensible scale of the genocide. I wasn't expecting to become emotional watching this video. I am aware of the atrocities logically and their incredible scale but seeing such a representation of it, knowing that each of those possessions have a soul attached to them, it is something totally different.
29:17 Do not take anything from the camp, not even a stone - the karma of evil and the indescribable suffering of the victims clings to these things. No, don't take the grief, the pain and the wretched evil home with you.
in 1978 when i was 16 i started work in Rochdale UK, i worked in Castleton, at the traffic lights every morning i would see an old lady collecting rubbish on the street, she had a number tattooed on her arm, i later found out she was in one of the camps, i still remember her to this day.
My high school teachers grandmother was a survivor of the Holocaust and she would set a week out of our syllabus to teach us about it... We went on a field trip to the Museum of Tolerance... Her grandmother would also come to class to help her granddaughter teach us... Breaks my heart to have seen that let alone actually be at the place it actually happened...
Wenfymialack399. Fine story of your teacher assuring her class knew! THANK YOU. i wonder if no birds means no insects or mice etc AFTER the video today I saw lots of areas there that I believe make the site likely toxic to any human visitors?! Where is the Museum of Tolerance, please.
Thank you for showing this place right before the 9th of Av. The date of the destruction of both of the Jewish temples. It is a day of mourning, and we also mourn for those lost there, at Auschwitz.
I recently saw an Auschwitz exhibit at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and it shattered me. I knew a lot before I went BUT once I came face-to-face with the actual relics I was overwhelmed by being so close to items that had witnessed the absolute worst humanity has to offer. I sobbed throughout the entire exhibit. So much horror, inhumanity to fellow humans, "denial" groups, the people who survived, all more emotional than I can describe. Watching this video, I cried all over again. I would love to see this place in person YET I know I would never be able to get over it once I saw it in person. Evil is among us, only hibernating.
It's really disturbing to me that people would want to bring back items from there into their homes, is it just me or is that like treating that camp as if it was an amusement Park,,no class no respect,,they deserve the negative energy they invited
I visited the Holocaust museum in Washington DC and it brought me to tears, I couldn't imagine being at a place where so many people were tortured and murdered.
I have been there as well. You can spend hours on end there just reading and seeing all that remains. If it doesn't move you then you are not human. The torture they were put through and starvation is unbelievable. Bless all those that suffered. May they R.I.P.
@@user-bj3jn1sq7y I went there on a school trip and that was on the itinerary. But people go there for the history of it and to really try to understand the atrocities that went on.
I visited the Sachsenhausen camp in 2017. I tell you the vibe in there and walking through the whole place and I almost broke down in tears so many times. I still to this day remember exactly how I felt. 😢so heartbreaking what all these folks went through. May they all r.i.p. ❤🙏🏻 thanks for sharing
My father was in the British army. He was in the group that liberated Bergan-Belsen. He died at the age of 85 in 2015. I had a jewish girlfriend when I was a teenager. My old man had an " eye for the ladies"-so to speak. He always looked her up and down - like only a 60 something man can understand when you 're talking about gorgeous teen-age girls....( obviously now that I'm in my 60s I can relate TOTALLY. Anyways , one night he came home a little drunk and for the FIRST and ONLY time- he told us about what he saw. For more than an hour he held us both spellbound with his teary-eyed recollections. By time it was over we were all in tears. As I've said it was the ONLY time he ever elaborated about his time in the service. Remember in 1945 my father was 19 years old. It sure explained why they were referred to as " the lost" generation. My girlfriend always respected my father after that night , and so did I.........
Why are you touching everything and sneaking into forbidden areas? And not only that, but you're also encouraging visitors to STEAL bricks from the site??? WTF?
Actually no sign not to enter where I went I just commented wrong you can go places I went when you go visit Auschwitz....... and I like to touch my people died there....you can do it different when you go there.
@EverydayTreasure because of your selfishness people are reporting you for your misinformation, trespass and removing artifacts from a protected site. Yet you defend yourself on the basis of its your people? If you truly had that level of respect instead of vainglory and YT greed for clicks to cash you would have reported factually, stayed in the boundaries and not stolen even one pebble from a shrine memoralizing one of the most evil times in modern history. Your disrespect is truly stunning and you have no shame.
Take nothing but pictures, and leave only your footprints. This one is a historical monument, and may carry some bad energies. Please do not destroy it.
Thank you for sharing this. I live in America and will probably never visit there. One of my high school teachers in the 1960's had been a soldier and his unit liberated one of the death camps. He showed us his personal photos of the camp, the prisoners and the mounds of dead stacked like cordwood. The photos were graphic and shocking for us as we were just learning about the Holocaust. We saw what he saw first hand uncensored, then he said the pictures conveyed the horror of man's inhumanity but they could not present the smell. The smell of the camp, the dead as well as the living. You could tell he was reliving that time, that smell. It was one of the most valuable lessons I learned in my life. After the war the slogan was "Never forget" but looking at current events all over the world, I fear too many have forgotten.......
Unfortunately it’s always happening . In 1994 in Rwanda almost a million Tutsis were murdered in a civil war . Hardly made the newspapers in the west . They say there are more than 32,000 children dead right now as I write in Gaza . Never again ? No always again is more like it .
For those of you who asked why this is so important, why are they still making a big deal of this part of history, or why we need to remember. 1)Ever heard the very important say, Those who forget the past will cause history to repeat itself."?
2)A person dies twice. Once when their soul seperates from the body and a second time when they are forgotten. Innocent souls need to be remembered.
3)Empathy is taught by experience.
4)Somethings need to be seen to be believed.
5) We need to understand how evil humans can be.
6) Do not let their pain and deaths be in vain.
bgabriellan 7176 Your "1)" applies to all history be it the war. slavery, child labour, etc. All of the WOKES who want to tear down statues and memorials because they are offended by them need to heed this.
Because we should never forget how many people died
Because there are many people who a) deny this ever happened and b) have no problem with it continuing to happen in many places in Africa, the Middle East, China, and pointedly what hamas did on October 7,2023!
Because it is happening again RIGHT NOW with the same propaganda from Hitler, from Henry Ford and the anti-semitic communities throughout the world including the U.N.
Beaufully said!
My father had a big trunk that we were not allowed to touch. After he died we opened the trunk and there was all these pamphlets the government gave to the soldiers to prepare them for what the they would see when they came to the death camps. Those pics were absolutely Horrific!! His company liberated Dachau and only told me 1 story of his time there. He said his platoon were walking down a road and came upon a bridge. They were told to go under the bridge and cross the river. When they did they found German soldiers with Jewish prisoners and they were throwing them in the river. His company rescued them and said they were walking skeletons and they were starving so the guys got their own food and gave them some. When they began to eat they choked to death. He said the ovens were even worse! It changed him. He never got over his time there. He became a firefighter when he came home. I can’t begin to imagine the horrors of this place! We weren’t allowed to touch matches or fireworks of any kind! Rest In Peace Daddy 🙏🏻💙🙏🏻 UPDATE - the nazi’s were putting the Jews into what he called “croker sacks” and pushing them into the river. He also told me that “once you smell the stench of burning flesh you never ever forget it”. I’ve always believed that was the reason he became a fireman.

I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?" 76 He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. 77 For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times.
78 Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. 79 And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept the way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear the Most High -- 80 such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways.
81 The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. 82 The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. 83 The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. 84 The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. 85 The fifth way, they shall see how the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. 86 The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. 87 The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they sinned while they were alive, and before whom they are to be judged in the last times.
88 "Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. 89 During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. 90 Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: 91 First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders.
92 The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. 93 The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the unrighteous wander, and the punishment that awaits them. 94 The third order, they see the witness which he who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. 95 The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. 96 The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come;
and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. 97 The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. 98 The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom they served in life and from whom they are to receive their reward when glorified.
99 This is the order of the souls of the righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." 100 I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" 101 He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations."
102 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the day of judgment the righteous will be able to intercede for the unrighteous or to entreat the Most High for them, 103 fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." 104 He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The day of judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, 105 so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own righteousness and unrighteousness." .....2 Esdras 7:75

My Grandfather, James Otis 'Pop' Ingram was with Patton's army when they liberated Ohrdruf. He never really spoke of it but he did say that "the devil isn't in hell but in the hearts of men."
Ohrdruf was said to be especially horrific. I thank you Grandfather for his service, so we could live the way we do today. ❤ from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
and he is still there, nothing changed. Men are still evil.

My Uncle (was grown when my dad was born) was there serving with Patton.
Dad said uncle was never the same.
My father also served under Gen. Patton. It was not until he was a very old man dying of cancer that he told me about liberating the camp...he never said which one. He just told me that the remaining guards at the camp heard that the army was coming to liberate the camp, so the guards had the remaining prisoners dig a long trench & then they lined the prisoners up & shot them & they fell into the trench & the guards threw the dirt over them. My father said he arrived there shortly after...he would not say how long after, because he was crying too hard ( can you imagine this..an 83 years old man sobbing about the horrors he saw over 50 years ago. And my dad was a tough man, but he cried so hard talking about this). My father said that him & his fellow soldiers dug up the bodies, desperately hoping someone was still alive but none were. I always think my dad had to tell someone about all of this before he died so someone ( me) could know & pass the story on so it could not be forgotten.
What frightens and saddens me the most about this. Is that history has an excellent track record on repeating itself. The changes started small for them at first. Keep your eyes open.

My great grandfather and his brother died in Dachau….RIP.
There is a reason Eisenhower had the camps so documented. He must have suspected in the future that people wouldn’t believe what took place and tried to prevent that.

@@Slammy555 unfortunately there are so many generations that know nothing about it. Never even knew to forget. There's so many UA-cam channels with young people looking at holocaust stuff for the first time. They're like this was real? That actually happened? Even people seeing Schindler's list. They're like was this real? Was the Warsaw ghetto a real place? Heck, I have three adult nieces that don't even know much about 9/11
People have already forgotten and now there are deniers who hate just as much as the Nazis hated. We are a violent disgusting species and we will soon destroy ourselves.
Ok and the Jews who kill the Palestinians what do you think it is normal 😒I will also not forget what the occupying Zionists did 🫠😡😡
Yes look what they are doing in Gaza.
I was there in 1998. I met a couple of women who were in prison 1943 as children. They showed me their tattoos. They took me places that others didn't go. It was as if you could hear the ghosts of the dead. I don't scare easily, but this place scared the hell out of me. I had a hard time sleeping for at least a month. I still all the years later can't believe what these people went through and what the Germans did to them.
Great video it brings back not so good memories.
Back in 2001 when my twins were in preschool, I was working at Ross in Laguna Hills, CA and there was an old man who was sitting down waiting for a family member shopping and I said hi and he showed me his numbered tattoo on his arm and he was telling me he’d been in a concentration camp in Germany and he looked like he was going to start crying. I’ve never forgotten him 😢❤
Tysm 👍 for sharing. At age 11, I read ( and read countless times)the Diary of Anne Frank and met Miep Gies, (who brought 🥑 🥝 food to the Annex) in 1995 in Seattle. God bless you and yours. . .❤🙏✨🕊️

It's what the Nazis did, not the Germans. Not all Germans were Nazis. There were good Germans. Don't forget that many people were too afraid not to join the National Socialist party as not joining could mean they were shot or sent to the camps. Don't forget that Hitler had opposition party members were carted off to the camps as they dared to oppose him.
Why on earth would you want a piece of brick from a concentration camp? And you're not allowed in that forest... And you know why.
I can never go there. I cried during the entire video. My aunt was a survivor, but she’d never talk about her experiences there. I only knew because I glimpsed her tattoo one day. I’ve had to learn her history on my own. I think about her every day, along with her family who I never got the chance to meet. The story was kept quiet to “not disturb the children” and now it’s too late for me to ask. She will never be forgotten.
Thank you for sharing your experience. Heartbreaking. Insidious.
I have been to Auschwitz two years ago and when you walk true that gate you can feel the evil in the air its stil there after all those years many people hate germans and i do to what they did they never erase from there history and every german will be hold responsible for those horrors they are evil people .

Same with my beloved Grandfather and his 3 brothers, all perished at Mauthausen camp in Austria. My poor mother and Aunts who fled from the town on foot in the dark cold winters night, whilst the men stayed to fight... the horrors they witnessed... no child should ever have to see or know.
She only spoke of it once to my Father as they sat in the dining room, and I heard it from around the corner, hidden in the Hall way... I went to bed and cried... I knew then and there that the movie "for those I loved" was true.
After she passed away, I decided to bite the bullet and search the concentration camp records.
There it was...
In all its horror. I've never cried so hard in my life.
One day, I will make that trip to Dachau then Mauthausen camps and pay my deepest respects to my beloved Grandfather and great Uncles who should of lived a peaceful life in Italy 🇮🇹 ❤

I was footsteps from the HolacaustvMuseum in D.C.
My late father was in the British Army, my mother is German. She told me when the Americans passed through her village, in Thuringia, they posted up photos of Buchenwald concentration camp, which was about 40km away. She was 11 years old in 1945. She told me that the local people could not believe it. She still gets very upset when she remembers what happened. She has a book called the Gelbe Stern. This programme upsets me also. I curse those responsible for what those swine did. They lost their humanity. A truly awful place. May all those who were murdered, rest in peace. We do not forget you.
It’s a lie that Germans didn’t knew.
40km away? They were doing business with that camp in many ways, most of neighboring towns and villages.
Your mom was 11 and as a child just wasn’t interested in such details.
Every grown up German citizen was AWARE of whole industry of concentration camps, it was free labor.
Guess who built thousands of kilometers of famous Autobahn highways?
Maybe your mother a child didn’t know but her mother and father had to of. An operation that big does not go unnoticed
so it took allied propaganda for germans to know anything about a work camp?
interesting...
No they knew! Perhaps not directly but the rumors were always there. They chose not to believe because that was more comfortable 😢
how ironic, because you have already forgotten, or perhaps never even heard about the gulag camps and who even built those and why, yet you still come on the internets to blabber about how good communist propaganda was in 1945 and even still is today, LoL ? like wake up or something, because its already 2024 and it would be a shame if you lived your whole ignorant life being asleep in old communist dreams
In 1977 I was 22 years old hairstylist. I had a client that had numbers that were tattoo"d on her arm. I asked her why she had a tattoo. She said she was a toddler in the concentration camp and that was what they did to account for people there. I will never forget.
Thank you for posting.

The fact that she survived in the camp that young is a miracle bless her heart ❤️
@@cuteandfluffypikachu3405 I never had the heart to ask her about her experience. I agree it was a miracle. When I cut her hair she was about 40+ years old and as I said I was 22 in 1977.
When I was in the 7th or 8th grade, we had a survivor come to our school to talk to us. I asked him about his tattoo. Unbeknownst to me, the teacher had instructed the class to specifically NOT ask about the tattoo but I was in the bathroom when that instruction was given. The man showed us his tattoo when I asked about it and it wasn’t until after I was told of my faux pas. It was apparently deeply personal for him. I’m 47 and I still feel sick to my stomach when I think about it.
@@IratePuffin Please don't feel bad about it. He wouldn't have shown you the tattoo if he didn't want to. I'm sure he was there to share his history because he was a survivor and a lot of the younger generation doesn't believe that this actually happened.

It breaks my heart that there are people who think it never happened that is very hurtful to those who experienced it and for those who survived to tell about it…However, it’s not fair, to judge this man for sharing a video.

I agree with your sentiment 100%. Here's the problem though. I know people who would have a major fit if the schools showed that to their kids. But you're absolutely right.
When we arrived at Auschwitz the first thing I noticed was the silence (NO birds) nothing just complete silence. The most heart breaking thing ive ever seen. Berlin is the same and every prison camp should be preserved so our next generations DONT EVER FORGET!!
Silence apart from the hordes of noisy tourists
@AnnabelleStamper...not the day we went there wasnt, it was silent x
i dont think people make much noise when they tour that place
@newgabe09.....Meant Berlin is also heart breaking, many birds when we visited Berlin camp x
They probably put poison out to kill any animals to make the forest silent, just my guess.
Thank you for filming this I'm disabled and unable to travel the distance to visit this massive part of world history may all those poor souls rest in peace.

I love that UA-cam can bring travel to everyone. ❤❤
Same. Im glad people can bring us on their jouneys. Its important.
Hear hear! Never again! Never ever again! One of my father's last acts at the end WW2 was helping to "clean up" Bergen Belsen. He would readily talk about his time in North Africa, Italy and France, but very rarely there, which was always respected by me and the rest of the family.
Yes, I also never cry for the 85 million souls who perished during WWII, just these.
You shouldn't have said you could take a brick from the derelict sites of Auswich. That is wrong
Very sacred place to be left alone in memory of all the people who died there.
I was thinking the exact same
I thought the same, bad he said this, don't take anything away but a desire to make sure these atrocities never happen again.
Take away only photographs and memories , and leave only footprints.
I have been twice and was told by the tour guide if you try to take anything at all, stones included, you will be reported and arrested
I'd be concerned that they brought more than a brick home. Evil like that has to be demonic
Do not tell people to take bricks, please. Remember also, the pits in the forest were used to dump ashes from the crematoria. Those wet, swampy pits are literally the open graves of tens of thousands.
@30:42
if i right, the ash they dumped at round pits what i see on picture,s. i think, where he in stapped is not ash pitt because it strech verry long and small. butt maybe i have it wrong.
The Pits were located elsewhere. This swamp that he fell into is just drainage ditch which is all around the camp.. some of the pits with ashes were also behind the fence in the forest and near the site of the little Red and white house. But i believe the germans opened the pits and got rid of the ashes by dumping them into the river
Yeah ok, I thought it was millions?
If those ovens were used to cremate the bodies, they would still be cremating them today.
My ex father in law was in one of the camps as a child. He refused to speak about the camp itself but told of what happened on the way to the camp and after. The horror they endured is something i cant even imagine
My Roman Catholic relatives were prisoners of Auschwitz. None of my Jewish relatives were in Auschwitz.

I learned a lot about all this from my mother who saw her village of Hamm, Lux, run over by the Nazis-she told us many stories. My father who fought in WWII was a Swiss-Italian citizen who immigrated to USA and couple years later, signed up to fight. He met my mom in Luxembourg. My dad as an officer received a “yearbook” of the war. It was terrible; was mainly photographs showing the horrors of the war. He also told us stories. All was very sad. My parents were deeply affected by the war. I just want to say that as proud as I am to be an American (and first generation), I hope we never have to be in such a terrible event such as this again. They truly were a great generation, bought at a very great price. 🎖️
In the year 2000, I visited my son, was stationed in Germany at Ramstien Air Base. But he was working at the American hospital at Landstule. We went to Bavaria for a week, but the first day, we went to see Dachau. It was an eerie, sad place. The crematorium there was smaller. They had them open, to see into them, no screens, and remains of those poor souls still visible. There was also a small flame on a candle in one with an eternal flame lit in side. I cried here, seeing those remains. The barracks were all gone, but they had rebuild one as an example of where the prisoners were kept. They were wooden construction, no insulation, and a small wood stove for heat. The prisoners were packed into those buildings, with barely anywhere to move around. Bunk beds slept 6 to 8 people to a bunk.
Compared to other concentration camps, this one was fairly small and was one of the first ones built. A very sad place, but a reminder of the cruel treatment of the Jewish people. This one held political enemies, gays, gypsies and others the third reicht considered enemies of Germany. 😢
Just reading this makes me cry. Such an imaginable amount of evil happened. I pray that this is NEVER forgotten.

At the end of the documentary (which was very graphic) I was crying and told my father I hated him. He said you don't hate me, you hate that now you know.
I made my two kids watch Schlinder's List also, so they would know history so that it doesn't repeat itself.

@@stillwaters7730whats to be gained from showing someone so young? They can wait till their brains are fully developed.
You say that you don’t want to be disrespectful then you secretly film in the crematoria where, out of respect, no filming is allowed and then you sneak into parts of the camp that you are not allowed to go into. Clearly you are more interested getting “Likes” than you are in being respectful. I think that is absolutely disgraceful. Just show some respect!
I was on a tour there last year & you are allowed to film in the crematoria. The only two places they ask you not to film are 1) a building similar to the one with the shoes, that has all the human hair found there. It was waiting to be exported, when the camp was liberated. 2) the torture chambers where prisoners were forced to stand for hours or days. These are so tiny, I don't think you could film them anyway.
@@MrSpeednz well I was there in May this year and there are definitely signs which forbid filming in the crematoria.
0:39 that people are steeling pieces of wire from that place, bothers me. You never EVER take something from a memorial site! Looks like you messed around in a sacred place, and got a subtle reminder...
Such disrepect to the dead what would people do if it was their family.
Wow....the memories came flooding back. I was a teen living in Europe- the UK and Germany in the 70's. My mom arranged a tour of the same....and seeing the stacks of shoes, eyeglasses, denture plates, the ovens....the railway cars to the "showers"....the BRUTALITY, it NEVER escapes you. I also saw the carnage in France, WW-1, at Verdun. Mountains of bones, skulls, weapons, mustard gas munitions, and white crosses for a far as the eye could see. I think both sites should be required viewing, learning about, and....remembering.
I visited Auschwitz- Birkenau in 1996. In 1944, 68 members of my grandparents family perished in this camp, coming from Slovakia and Hungary. Only 9 years before I was born. I never get over it.
You never get over it??? You weren’t even born hahaha. Most ridiculous I’ve ever heard. Talk about entitled.

@@bartlevenson7851 It is such a terrible sin what happened. I understand completely. Hard to believe.

But does this mean that you eternally hate Germans?
Never knew about those wires being electrified. Evil as evil can be. To think that when you look at one of those women’s shoes - I’m thinking of how that woman tried on that shoe (pair of that shoe) in a store looking at how they flattered her and never in her wildest dream could imagine they would end up in a huge pile after she had been starved, abused, neglected, sick, tortured and slaughtered. This video should be shown in schools.
I took the virtual tour online 2 years ago. It was excellent and very moving. But what you share here feels even more immediate and harrowing. Thank you for this vital lesson in never allowing this part of history to be repeated. May the dead rest in peace and honor and may their memory be a blessing.
Thanks
I went to school in belsen village. Our junior annexe was formerly the hospital for the concentration camp. Because of the lime used to despose of the bodies there were no worms in the soil and no birdsong. That made it eerie. A schoolfriend visited the camp with her family including her three year old little sister, who didnt know what the place was. They were just walking around gardens with mounds that contained all the bodies.The little sister began to cry saying 'mummy, mummy let's go, the devil's here.'
W O W !!!
WOW!
Very creepy
Ya they are buried under the mounds
Woah woah woah... A hospital in an extermination camp????? That doesn't make sense.
Pros: I get to see this via video (for free) and experience something which I may not have enough money to ever visit. The quality of the video and audio was good.
Cons: the presenter going into places which are prohibited as well as inferencing one may be able to take a brick or memento. While I assume the intentions are to give his viewers a bit extra during this tour, it ultimately is disrespectful in the end. Please, for any UA-camr, do not feel you must do things like this for views and likes, it’s not worth it.
I would add that he’s not quite accurate in some of what he is saying. When he broke off from the group to show the chimneys and the bricks… he said that they were from the crematoriums. Those were barracks that were either never finished or were destroyed. Those chimneys were from the furnaces which were only source of heat for those living in the barracks (there were other completed brick barracks that give us an idea of what they would have looked like. The crematoriums were much larger.
I would encourage you to check out the Auschwitz museum website, they have a lot of free resources and I believe some video tours as well. This video lost credibility for me when he went from “people are stealing barbed wire because they want a piece of the camp, and that shouldn’t be done” to encouraging people to take bricks… also going into areas that you shouldn’t be going into… it’s not only disrespectful but it is also a safety issue. When I went for a Study-travel course in college we had a tour guide who took us to places that most tours don’t go, but he made it very clear to stay on the pathways. It’s a matter of respect for the victims who never left, but also safety.
The museum provides online live tours. Then you dont have to deal with the cons.
@@AlexHaan not to mention the Museum has come out and specifically called this video out for a multitude of reasons, the least of which is him not having the permission to do so. From my understanding, taking pictures is allowed without prior approval/permission (at least this was the case when I visited back in 2009), but for videos (especially ones that will be uploaded to social media) the person must get prior approval. This video is full on inaccuracies (also something the Museum brought up).
@@CelticStar87 Yeah I was there this summer. This video really creeps me out, not because of the obvious content, but because of the stuff the videographer did. Not cool at all and very disrespectful.
I couldn’t continue watching sadly 😢
A few years ago we visited Dachau. No words can describe visiting a place like this. I feel like if you try to describe it it might sound like an over exaggeration but if you don’t describe it enough, it’s an injustice. Anyway, my mom and I were walking from the crematorium building back to the main entrance when we suddenly heard emergency sirens. I turned around and saw big, dark plumes of smoke. There was a civilian fire (in the town outside the camp walls) but the rising smoke looked as if it was coming from the crematorium smokestacks. It was like a split second rip in time. My mom and I looked at one another and stood frozen. It was very creepy and so sad.

@kristindewitt9059 Poles constituted the largest ethnic group of prisoners in Dachau 2720 priests (among them 2579 Catholic) held in Dachau, 1034 did not survive the camp. For first two years in Auschwitz concentration camp were only Polish prisoners. The first transport of Poles reached KL Auschwitz from Tarnów prison on June 14, 1940.
My dad was one of the troops that liberated Dachau. He had taken photos because command wanted proof of the atrocities. He was traumatized for life from the experience, I can only imagine how much worse it was for the people that lived thru the camps. 💔😭
“Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” - Winston Churchill
Once people stop seeing other people as human beings, they have become beasts.
I visited in June '78. I remember the bus ride across the country, going thru all these deserted, overgrown villages. The camp was in better shape. The Poles only did modest displays and exhibits. No plexiglass either. The murder wall was deeply pitted from bullet impacts. The gas chambers and barracks were still standing. The Poles had a way of taking a B&W photo of an area, blowing it up, then placing it so it showed from behind where you were standing. Like at the entrance. Then you turn around and see the guard tower the photo was taken from and you are standing where the prisoners were in the photo. The Poles had a little movie theater inside part of a building. Inside my classmates and I were sitting towards the back, watching the film. I heard 3 blood curdling screams from behind me. Like their entire souls were pouring out in the scream. Sounded like a man, woman and a boy. I turned to my friend but he didn't hear it. Very negative energy there. Even tho it was a warm, sunny June day it seemed like it just drained everything from me. It is Darkness. No desire to ever return there.
Creepy!
No, the gas chambers weren't there in '78, because the were destroyed by the Nazis before the camp was abandoned.
My Mother was an U.S. Army nurse who served in the European Theater of Operations during World War II. After the end of hostilities General Eisenhower ordered all available U.S. troops to tour death/ Concentration camps in their sectors. Mom was a 3rd Army U.S. nurse. In her sector was Dachau.

You do know that there's a possibility that when you fell in the swamp you might have picked up some of the ashes of the victims of the Holocaust.
Looked up Alice Frank (a name on one of the suitcases, see 3:36) in the database of survivors and victims, and she was a survivor. Just thought someone else out there might find that cool to know too.
Great to know thank you for watching greetings from Poland 🇵🇱

Wonder if she was related to Anne? Couldn’t be; I think all of her family that went there eventually died.
Her father was the only survivor.@@EphemeralProductions
@@EphemeralProductionsi dont think so. Frank is quite a common Dutch (sur)name. Anne's dad (Otto) survived auschwitz.
I visited Auschwitz-Birkenau in 2003 and it has always stayed with me. The energy that area gives off is incredibly eerie. There are very few animals, even insects seemed to be few and far between. You wouldn’t need to know about the Holocaust to FEEL that something horrifically evil happened there. I’ve only ever been to one other place that had the same energy as Auschwitz and that was the 1066 Battle of Hastings Senlac Field where the biggest battle took place…so much death. 😢
I was thinking of the energy this was projecting and thought there is NO way I would be touching any of the bricks or walls in this place. There is a reason he fell in that swamp area I believe.
I worked with a woman once who visited that field in Hastings. Someone from the tour group said " let's see who can cross the field and back again!"
As soon as people walked they begun to feel uncomfortable, scared, and nervous and one lady thew up.
Everyone looked at one another, turned around, ran back to the bus and told the driver to get the hell out of there...
I went to Auschwitz a few years ago when I was first visiting Krakow. The first thing that strikes me about a visit to Auschwitz and to Birkenau is that it is becoming a tourist attraction rather than a site of mass murder. Now I accept that people will want to visit and local companies / guides etc will provide tours but I was amazed by the behaviour of so many visitors. Coach and minibus parties of smiling couples and children happily snapping photos by the gate of Auschwitz 1 or sat on the tracks outside Birkenau having a cuddle, various football teams stickers stuck all over the bins and signs. All that was missing was the gift shop selling ‘I ❤️ Auschwitz’ T-shirts, and the onsite cafe and bar. I just can’t help feeling that many who go here miss the point.
The chap doing this video does a pretty good job and genuinely does seem respectful although I can’t say i agree with him wandering into places where he shouldn’t be or suggesting rubble should be pinched.
I have been to a few other camps as well where I felt the respect was more reserved. The most haunting place that I ever visited and one that many readers won’t know about was Ovćara near Vukovar in Croatia where war crimes and cold blooded murder was being committed in 1991.
Yes I agree We also made a lots of photo's but only for to remember that this can not be happening anymore, we where also with a group but we all behave like we should be respectfull to the people that died over there. We had a groep leader that talked about the photo's and said try to remember the photo's because in 30 min or so you are going to be in the place where these photo's where shot. She also told the story about some of the people in the photo's and of the people that have saved some others. We had also a group that came later and indeed there where people thinking his is fun to do. I came with my wife and 2 daughters age 5 a 2 and we have tried to tell our oldest daughter what happened over there.
You say this like it hasn't always been a trillion dollar industry of profiteering.
@@bashkillszombies An incredibly cynical view that somewhat trivialises the horror of the crimes committed here.
I was there maybe 6 months after the country joined the EU, and there was maybe 3 people walking. No guides, nothing.
humans will be humans, what do you want them to do? i think the tour is screaming for you to enjoy life while you still have it...i think you want to take offense. these are different times and you cant control how other ppl act. if you want to be respectful and mindful and be in a negative mindstate i understand but youre not responsible for how others act so take a chill pill.
My uncle Joe liberated a camp in Germany. As they were going through the camp he had his men round up every guard they could find. He was walking over to the group and he heard a man say, "Kill them, kill them all" He was a Jew from Chicago and he had traveled back to Germany just before the war with his mother and aunt. He got turned in by a member of his family who was in the DBM (Girls Hitler Youth) He originally was forced to write propaganda because of his American style. Then he was sent to the camp. My uncle stopped and said, "By the laws of war I can't kill a prisoner, but you can" and he gave him his .45" He said "I'll be in here.' He walked up to and picked out a guard and shot him once in each arm, once in the upper leg and the last shot right in the nuts. He did the same thing to another but shot him in each foot and then in the throat. One of the Sgts told my uncle. "That guy showed no emotion, only a smile when the guards screamed as they were hit."
My Polish Grandfather survived this camp...My prized possession is a knife he somehow managed to keep hidden there and brought to Australia with him after being Liberated

I don’t think for one minute that this can’t happen again.
especially when there are people who can watch this and say "humans will be humans" and visit a place like this and be light hearted. It is really sad that there are people who could tour a place like this and not be affected-deeply. Saying that we can't control other people's actions is a cowardly cop out that almost ensures that something like this will happen again.

I have visited Auschwitz Birkenau ,where Jane Haining, a Church of Scotland missionary was murdered. Along with the Jewish children she helped to look after. She was Scottish like myself. Coming from the Scottish borders, unlike me who is a Highlander. All possible steps must be taken to prevent this sort of thing recurring.
Still happening now... you don't know the world very well if you think this hasn't happened since and not happening today.
I'm also Scottish fae Dumbarton and thank you for bringing Jane Haining's life story to others. When most people think of the "Concentration (Murder) Camps" of the National Socialist German Workers Party, The NAZIS, they think of the Jews who were Murdered but there was many other groups and people who were Murdered and many others who died in heroic circumstances like Saint Maximilian Kolbé who also has an incredible life story. Thank You for keeping their stories alive in history.
@joseywales3789 facts..there were alot of other that shouldn't have been there at all..had nothing to do with them..I studied camps in the early 1990s
My grandfather was a Crew Chief in the US Army Air Corp. His aircraft flew dignitaries, officers and media to concentration camps. His dicription is far worse than what we learned. It was horrible but he wanted his grand kids to know the truth.

I am of German Christian heritage (Catholic) and I am overwhelmed by the cruelty that the Nazi's inflected upon the Jews. This place must be preserved so that the atrocities committed here will never be forgotten. I cannot imagine the grief and pain that must be felt by the families who lost their loved ones here. God Bless Them.
I don’t think there is any danger of the holocaust being forgotten as it reported on the extermination has to a degree been hijacked as an unique crime against the Jews which it wasn’t but has time goes by there is an increasing body of people who are aware of the other people who were murdered also, this seems to be forgotten which is more than a tragedy.
Leucter report says the places chamber couldnt have functioned as claimed. Recon photos show the shower room built post war by soviets. Red cross reports confirm the number barely broke 250k losses. From typhus mostly. Thats why there are pictures of emaciated individuals but never the red blemishes indicative of hydro sianide poisoning.
My catholic grandmother was also in there. Not only jews.
Catholics died there too.
The vatican helped facilitate some of the worst nazis escape and ellude.
To those who say that the holocaust didn’t happen I always ask this….there are graphic reports and photos from all sides in that conflict. Stories from survivors, surrounding neighbors, and troops from every nation, who left personal records of the holocaust. Reports from people who looted houses after residents were deported. People from many nations who saw and heard the trains, shootings etc. They are still finding remains from mass shootings in places all over Europe.
So my question is this - are you saying that people who fought each other savagely would suddenly decide to cooperate in a big conspiracy to make the whole thing up? And where did all those millions of people go? Use your brains people. Go to a concentration camp, read stories and watch videos from US, British, Russian, French soldiers etc. For what reason would all those people make this up?
Nobody says it didn’t happen it’s the numbers that don’t add up,go and read some books from the defeated people of Germany and also look at the real reason this war started,there’s a good UA-cam channel called “ peacedozer “ ,he doesn’t take sides just delivers the facts you can make your own mind up,good luck
29:14 You should NOT be encouraging people to take bricks and other souvenirs from Auschwitz. That's disgusting to suggest people should, regardless if your intent was serious or not. People who take souvenirs or graffiti Auschwitz are disgusting.
Why someone would want an object with such murderous nevative energy attached to it is beyond comprehension.
I appreciate what your doing to share, but please don't break or violate any rules of these locations just to get a better video.
Yes, thank you so much for showing those of us who could never get there to see these horrible places. I am of german descent, my Great Grandparents left Germany before the 1st World War. They saw and knew what was coming so they left. They didn’t want any part of that hatred. I lost several of my jewish relatives to these Camps. They didn’t think things could ever get so bad. My Great Aunt was in this Camp. She made it out alive but lost her two Children and my Great Uncle in this Camp. She’s gone now but every time I see something like this I think of all of the horror see saw and the losses she suffered. God forbid anything like this ever happens again. Man’s inhumanity to Man will always exist, but hopefully nothing like this ever happens again….

This is horrific , but it should be preserved for historical reasons to show all the schools throughout the world, the history of this place should be forever told , so nothing like this is ever repeated .😢
Taking any thing from this site including bricks is a sign of such disrespect or even suggestion someone do so.That’s why you fell in the swamp.

Falling into the swamp was Karma for not only going into restricted areas but for telling people to take a small piece of brick from the crematorium. In my opinion,it was a sign of disrespect to the hundreds of thousands who lost their lives in such horrific circumstances. You disrupted grave sites ( crematorium & swamp) and the souls of the deceased were upset.

I visited Dachau many years ago, and I noticed a similarity in this video. The silence. Beautiful sunny day, very close to the trees...and no birds. There is a heaviness in the air that you can feel. At least there was at Dachau. Once outside the walls, it was gone.
Same. I knew I wasnt the only one to experience this. Peace.
Same experience here too. Bavaria is full of birdsong - except at Dachau. We might wonder what phenomena occurs there beyond our perception that birds and animals can sense. If we discover it, we might unlock a mystery of the universe and understand much more about ourselves. That knowledge might avoid wars, brutality, and bloodshed. At least, horrify or chasten us into avoiding Holocausts.
Dachau was their model for the internment camp systems which was supposed to have been a social work training program, but turned into mass death as the final solution for they ran out of resources only going insane. Then Hilary Clinton had the gumption to made an official announcement late last year about preparing deprogramming camps for MAGA extremists. That big bell rings a most stark warning down through history as long as the electricity is on there.
I have visited Dachau too. It was horrible to hear about what happened there.😢
I can hear birds in this video.
The world should constantly be reminded of this sick evil time in history. Is about to repeat itself. May God Bless you All
Remember, this was only 79 years ago, lest we ever forget.
Funny thing about it is Jews are committing genocide right now on palest and the world is silent,
Not only people forgetting it but even praise the nazi, few day ago i came across the comment on video of excavation of the fallen German soldiers where some "man" explain how nazi soldiers where real gentleman to civilians and other commented that Partisans where very brutal, some people should get banned from internet for life, insane.
It was pretty much post-war "reconstruction".

@@fayecox9401 well said, and it’s important to remember that there were over 1000 camps in WW2 not just the well known ones. I would have thought that the lessons learned from this would prevent similar things happening but in the 70s the S21 prison in Cambodia was a death camp of equal horror, then the events including the last few months tell me that nothing has really changed. Humans are still able to see other humans as worthless based on ethnicity, I feel there is no hope for mankind
The Holocaust has always fascinated me for the utter cruelty, brutality and sheer inhumanity of the Nazis on all those innocent people. No matter how many books written by survivors of the camps, the history of the Holocaust I read, or TV documentaries, films or YT videos I watch, I will never be able to comprehend what happened during the Holocaust. I feel actually seeing Auschwitz Birkenau for myself would help bring what I know about the Holocaust together, but due to my bad health, that is something that will never happen.

For many years we were unable to find my mother's family history as records were destroyed, and they never wanted to talk about it.

If you want exact picture of those horrors watch 1979 documentary with survivor Kitty Hart when she revisits this camp. People must understand that those chimneys were almost never used, only if a prisoner happend to smuggle something to catch a small fire in them, also 21:54 these wash rooms were far from a comfort, water was scarse, no hygiene at all, most of these barracks were over crowded with hundreds to thousand people and there was no way to wash anything let to drink. Access to water and toilet was able only by buying it with items from those prisoners who were appointed to guard them or to work a chores, for example dumping toilets. Really terrible, we cant even imagine what horrors they set up for people there.
Thank you for sharing this. I'm 73 and hadn't seen all of this detail. As I watched, I found myself holding my breath and shallow breathing, realizing how evil humans, of which I am a part of, could be. The pain and the hopelessness these people had to live and die through is unfathomable. The human race will forever have this darkness running quietly throughout our history, no matter how civilized our species may become.

I am 56 years old and as a youth in the 1970s i met some Hebrew people that was there in Germany when all the evil happened. I never understood their pain or sadness or what they went through until i got older and read books on the 3rd Reich. I gained more understanding when technology like we have today came about and i got to watch people like you sgow these videos . Its sad and something that should never have happened. Oddly i will get to see the anniversary of 100 years of its evil . My uncle John fought against the german army there .
How are there people in this world that claim this didn’t occur in our history. We need to continue and teach our youth this indeed did happen and we should learn from our past that nothing like this should ever happen again. Thank you for this video.
Yes, the people who deny it happened also make it very difficult for people who certainly do not deny that it happened, but who want to make it known that nothing there is original. The camp was completely destroyed immediately after the war and it was some years later that it was carefully reconstructed with the help of people who were there in order to make it a faithful reproduction. Sadly, people who want to educate the public of this are labeled deniers.
It’s an important historical record to hopefully ensure it can never happen again.
The swiss red cross did reports during the war and was documenting soviet atrocities since 40. Note: 280 losses from typhus and supply shortages mostly. It couldnt have happened as claimed cuz you cant cremate a body in 20 mins. And ground oenetrating radar shows 0 mass graves.. nvm wooden shower doors on a room built post war by soviets (recon photos show).
I cant believe how little ppl care for the truth.. you're all animals like the Js claim.

Thanks for sharing this intense experience. I appreciate your respect and willingness to go to areas alone to share the area completely. You've filmed areas I have never seen before. It was very moving to see all this.
Thanks for watching!
I agree, and there are so many bricks, that if someone wants one to keep this in their mind and be a person who cares, I don't see that as a bad thing. I don't think you did this for "likes", I can hear in your voice that this affects you deeply and that you didn't do this for "fame "or attention, it seems to me lame you are sharing and I appreciate that. I he even many documentaries, but for some reason a recent one conveyed just how big the railway site is. I had never grasped that before. Your video is similar, it gives a sense of space and how vast the camp is. As I said it gives " a sense", there can be no way to convey the entire experience, which is one I am not sure I would ever want to do. So, thank you for sharing this and for being the kind of person the world needs more of. We desperately need more people who give a shit about other people and have a sense of right and wrong and who don't ignore bad behavior.
Oh, my God...the shoes...All of those people not realizing what was in store for them. Absolutely heartbreaking. When I was a nursing student working in a nursing home, there were three gentlemen there as patients, all Jewish, and all bearing camp number tattoos. They had stories to tell, and often needed comforting when their losses got to be too much.
I had an uncle who survived that hell. Thank you for the tour.
No matter how many times I see videos of this place or any of the other camps, its still so heartbreaking. No one person can ever begin to feel the pain and horror that the victims felt...May God Bless their souls.
Thank you so much for soiling your shoes for the making of the video brother 😆

How incredibly moving those exhibits of peoples belongings are. I was struck by a sense of sonder taking in the incomprehensible scale of the genocide. I wasn't expecting to become emotional watching this video. I am aware of the atrocities logically and their incredible scale but seeing such a representation of it, knowing that each of those possessions have a soul attached to them, it is something totally different.
29:17 Do not take anything from the camp, not even a stone - the karma of evil and the indescribable suffering of the victims clings to these things. No, don't take the grief, the pain and the wretched evil home with you.
Delusional comment
in 1978 when i was 16 i started work in Rochdale UK, i worked in Castleton, at the traffic lights every morning i would see an old lady collecting rubbish on the street, she had a number tattooed on her arm, i later found out she was in one of the camps, i still remember her to this day.
My high school teachers grandmother was a survivor of the Holocaust and she would set a week out of our syllabus to teach us about it... We went on a field trip to the Museum of Tolerance... Her grandmother would also come to class to help her granddaughter teach us... Breaks my heart to have seen that let alone actually be at the place it actually happened...

I recently saw an Auschwitz exhibit at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and it shattered me. I knew a lot before I went BUT once I came face-to-face with the actual relics I was overwhelmed by being so close to items that had witnessed the absolute worst humanity has to offer. I sobbed throughout the entire exhibit. So much horror, inhumanity to fellow humans, "denial" groups, the people who survived, all more emotional than I can describe. Watching this video, I cried all over again. I would love to see this place in person YET I know I would never be able to get over it once I saw it in person. Evil is among us, only hibernating.
It's really disturbing to me that people would want to bring back items from there into their homes, is it just me or is that like treating that camp as if it was an amusement Park,,no class no respect,,they deserve the negative energy they invited
I visited the Holocaust museum in Washington DC and it brought me to tears, I couldn't imagine being at a place where so many people were tortured and murdered.
I would never want to go there. Very grim and sad. Always surprised people want to go there.
I have been there as well. You can spend hours on end there just reading and seeing all that remains. If it doesn't move you then you are not human. The torture they were put through and starvation is unbelievable. Bless all those that suffered. May they R.I.P.
theirs also a holocaust museum in texas
@@user-bj3jn1sq7y I went there on a school trip and that was on the itinerary. But people go there for the history of it and to really try to understand the atrocities that went on.
There are museums all over the world rinse and repeat.
I visited the Sachsenhausen camp in 2017. I tell you the vibe in there and walking through the whole place and I almost broke down in tears so many times. I still to this day remember exactly how I felt. 😢so heartbreaking what all these folks went through. May they all r.i.p. ❤🙏🏻 thanks for sharing
My father was in the British army. He was in the group that liberated Bergan-Belsen. He died at the age of 85 in 2015. I had a jewish girlfriend when I was a teenager. My old man had an " eye for the ladies"-so to speak. He always looked her up and down - like only a 60 something man can understand when you 're talking about gorgeous teen-age girls....( obviously now that I'm in my 60s I can relate TOTALLY. Anyways , one night he came home a little drunk and for the FIRST and ONLY time- he told us about what he saw. For more than an hour he held us both spellbound with his teary-eyed recollections. By time it was over we were all in tears. As I've said it was the ONLY time he ever elaborated about his time in the service. Remember in 1945 my father was 19 years old. It sure explained why they were referred to as " the lost" generation. My girlfriend always respected my father after that night , and so did I.........
Falling into the swamp=karma for the disrespect shown to the site and those that lost their lives there
You ever get that sinking feeling that you are going somewhere you are not supposed to?
Germany is doing the right thing, preserving this place as an example to future generations of what can happen when fascism takes hold.
This is in Poland 🇵🇱
What a horrible place, God bless all the innocent men,women and children who died here.🥺🙏
Show some respect at this places! Stay on the path and grab nothing or encourage people to do that!
Why are you touching everything and sneaking into forbidden areas? And not only that, but you're also encouraging visitors to STEAL bricks from the site???
WTF?
Actually no sign not to enter where I went I just commented wrong you can go places I went when you go visit Auschwitz....... and I like to touch my people died there....you can do it different when you go there.
@EverydayTreasure because of your selfishness people are reporting you for your misinformation, trespass and removing artifacts from a protected site. Yet you defend yourself on the basis of its your people? If you truly had that level of respect instead of vainglory and YT greed for clicks to cash you would have reported factually, stayed in the boundaries and not stolen even one pebble from a shrine memoralizing one of the most evil times in modern history. Your disrespect is truly stunning and you have no shame.
@@radiotests i agree

Take nothing but pictures, and leave only your footprints. This one is a historical monument, and may carry some bad energies. Please do not destroy it.
Why not hold back on the pictures? Grant the victims just a little bit of respect maybe?
Thank you for sharing this. I live in America and will probably never visit there.
One of my high school teachers in the 1960's had been a soldier and his unit liberated one of the death camps. He showed us his personal photos of the camp, the prisoners and the mounds of dead stacked like cordwood. The photos were graphic and shocking for us as we were just learning about the Holocaust. We saw what he saw first hand uncensored, then he said the pictures conveyed the horror of man's inhumanity but they could not present the smell. The smell of the camp, the dead as well as the living. You could tell he was reliving that time, that smell.
It was one of the most valuable lessons I learned in my life. After the war the slogan was "Never forget" but looking at current events all over the world, I fear too many have forgotten.......
i agree---and now you are one of the chosen to keep reminding people in honor of your teacher.
Yes thank you so much for the interesting comment ❤️
Thanks for visiting and sharing with younger generations the atrocities committed there. Never Again.
Thank you
Sadly it's still goes on in another part of the world.
I lived through a genocide during the early 1990s. It still goes on around the world today.
Unfortunately it’s always happening . In 1994 in Rwanda almost a million Tutsis were murdered in a civil war . Hardly made the newspapers in the west . They say there are more than 32,000 children dead right now as I write in Gaza . Never again ? No always again is more like it .
@@cojayseawhy are they dead?
