I've been watching WWII documentaries for over 60 years and Mark Felton's works are brilliant. Factual, well researched, packed with detail. And presented in a calm sensible way, no dramatic music, no preposterous suppositions, a delight to watch. Thank you,.
Can't put it better myself. It's nice to not have the "history" documentaries on TV which often take the most outrageous, ridiculous theories and make them appear to be mainstream. Then there is one so-called history show which I describe as, "Never have so many taken so much time to accomplish so little." I could go on an on, but suffice it to say, Dr. Felton's presentation of real history minus anti-intellectual silliness and melodrama is a great pleasure.
Indeed Sir-you are most correct,Professor Felton is a "true gem" with information we never knew we needed to know until he told us,then we knew we needed to know-ya know?

Müller would have been aware of every hiding place and secret route. He was smart, calm, and calculating. He seems like the kind of person that would have considered escape possibilities long before. The fact that he wasn't a fan of Nazism or Communism it is not hard to believe he could keep a low profile after the war. Between his stature, and mindset, minus his eye coloration, Müller was as gray as it gets. His knowledge and practice of the spy tradecraft would have given him a huge advantage in escaping.
I would say if there any of them, who could disappear, would be this man, someone who hunted people for a living, knew how to fit in and disappear. It’s hard not to believe that he didn’t have a plan to escape.

Another fantastic documentary Mark. I am currently reading "Heinrich Himmler" by Peter Longerich and his conclusion was "Muller was the only the member of the group (he says Brant, Muller and Kiermaier were together) who actually succeeded in disappearing without a trace. Your documentary was 28 minutes long, his book is 748 pages long and you both came to the same conclusion, no one will ever know what happened to him. Keep up the good work.

@@77thTrombone I agree with your point about payback, but even if the Nazi soldiers had of been like choirboys in the east, I still think the Red Army would have acted as they did. Russian armies through history have been quite barbaric to civilians.

Mark this could quite possibly be the best video you have ever done! I think he got away. He was never a true believer, and all those years would have given him the time to assemble an alternative identity, and the ways and means to pull off a disappearing act.
In a weird way, the Nuremberg defendants contradict the deniers. The defendants used the excuses of "I had nothing to do with it" or "That wasn't my department" or the classic "I was just following orders." None of THEM denied the horrific events of the Nazi era ever happened! So what does that tell you?
Dr. Feltons historical documentaries are the the finest, accurate accounts of war time informed available. There is no other source even close to these and I watch as many as possible! Thank you Dr. Felton for educating people who are otherwise historically illiterate!
Shultz was not a PERSON. He was a Man. No one is born a PERSON. One is either Man or WoMan (Both are different types of Man. Collectively known as ManKind) A PERSON is a DEAD genderless CORPORATE Entity created by the Government for the purpose of conducting COMMERCE. The PERSON im-PERSON-ates the living breathing soul. 'Man'. You have bees so brainwashed to use the term PERSON that it is difficult to escape from using it. Such is the power of Psychological Warfare operations on the people. The PERSON that im-PERSON-ates you is the one that has hijacked your Given name and Family name and created what is known as the FIRST NAME and LAST NAME in the ALL CAPS. Look up the meaning of PESONA in the dictionary. You were deliberately not taught these things - it is how you are enslaved when you are not fluent in the language, and only know 'Common Street English' which is the language of peasants.
Mark your dedication to thorough research is incredibly impressive; it's one thing to say "it takes about thirteen minutes to walk from the Fuhrerbunker to Prinz Albrecht Strasse", it's another thing entirely to say "I've done it".
My French grandfather, a cinema owner in a northern town, was imprisoned by the Gestapo for a week because as an important local figure it was "his turn" to be arrested. Not sure of what crime was committed but that was irrelevant. The Gestapo had no chance of catching the right suspect so anyone would do. Sound bad? On returning home, his concerned family asked how it had been. He said he'd never laughed so much. He'd been locked up with other town notables - all friends - and they'd all played cards and told each other stories. It must be added this was in 1944, the Gestapo knew they were losing and had no interest in needlessly creating more enemies. But still, not the sort of story one normally associates with being jailed by the Gestapo!
He was very lucky. There were untold numbers of round ups of local ‘notables’ who were then shot/hanged in retribution for partisan activity,not just in France but in all occupied countries.

One of the best, and fantastically the longest, videos I have seen. I would love to see these areas today. Fantastically done Dr. Even more interesting, is the number of people who simply “vanished” during the end days of the war. Mass graves filled with people, who’s identity will never be known. The end music snippet was a genius touch!
Mark, your documentaries are awesome. And, there's something about your voice that just completes the quality of it all. We'll spoken, and proper accent. No bullshit shenanigans. Legit. Respect to you, dude.
Love the detail and dedication you give to each documentary. You always ask the questions and bring up the possibilities that others pass over.You're a rare breed....Thanks
Mark Felton. I remember your documentaries when I was a kid with my Father. They were a peaceful times and I missed them for some time when I quit watching the channel and TV in general. It makes me happy to see you still making quality content.
a practical, non ideological person had a good chance of engineering his own disappearance. I'll give it 50/50 that he succeeded and lived out his life quietly and unobtrusively...........
He had a couple of years knowing after the US entered the war the end of Nazi Germany was certain. As head of the Secret Service, his plans were secret, along with his Secret Swiss Bank Accounts of stolen wealth from nations that were invaded.
@@charlesangell_bulmtl If we see how Mengele, Borman had successfully made their escape, Reinhard Gehlen who survived the war & then became GFR secret services chief, & Eichmann who almost got away, then it's not at all impossible that a man with Heinrich Mueller's cunning and a computer-like mind, wouldn't be able to rig his own files at RSHA HQ with false sets of id (fingerprints among others) when he saw the crunch coming.
I just wanna say that when I was 14, I bought myself an ankle-length leather coat. I was very proud of it but my grandma said I looked like Gestapo 😂 I've never wore it again, and I'm 27 now.
@@GenJouh That was part of *why* Heydrich hired him: With remarks like that in his past, Müller would be dependent on Heydrich's continued patronage to survive, thus personally loyal to Heydrich before all else.
Dear Mark, your depth of voice is mesmerizing , wanting your videos to never stop. You are a great professional and apparently a very hard worker/researcher to boot. God Bless.
Since Truman made a comment about the CIA: “I never would have agreed to the formulation of the Central Intelligence Agency back in forty-seven, if I had known it would become the American Gestapo.” and Allen Dulles who was head of the CIA as well a part of Operation Paperclip, I would say it isn't impossible that Heinrich Muller ended his days as a retired employee of the US government under Operation Paperclip as one of the architects of the CIA.
Müller was actually highly intelligent and possessed a photographic memory which is why his interrogation techniques were so successful. He simply waited for them to trip up with their fabricated stories as he remembered everything they ever said. He was the ideal police officer. He also hated the communists with a vengeance and would never allow himself to be captured by them and certainly never work for them. He would have been extremely valuable to the CIA or its predecessor as his knowledge of Soviet operations and his extensive spy network would just about be impossible to resist with the approaching Cold War. America rightly would deny all knowledge. Food for thought.
Exactly. The OSS and Allen Dulles knew all about Müller and needed him in the era of Realpolitik of the Cold War for his knowledge of the Communist apparatus. He was used by the Americans and given cover in return, protected from the prying eyes of British, Israeli and other American intelligence agencies. Files remain sealed in both Langley and The National Archive UK.
Superb offering. One hypothesis I read, proposes Muller hid for months in secret tunnels under the Gestapo headquarters. He later was able, with false documents, to escape to England where he lived, until the late 80’s, as butler of the Felton estate.
8:45 Misch wrote in "Hitler's Last Witness" that the sight of Müller was a greater concern for him than the death of Hitler or the advancing Red Army. He thought that Müller planned to kill all the inhabitants of the Führerbunker at the last moment, thus leaving no witnesses of Hitler's last days. He even thought the bunker might be have been fitted with demolition charges during its construction.
Coincidentally, I was researching Muller today, I was looking into the possibilities of him surviving the end of WW2. I believe it's possible he got away and fled. I wouldn't say he fled to Argentina specifically as since he was calculating he might have been able to deduce he would be hunted there and decided to avoid it to cover his tracks. He might have gone to Chile
I wouldn't be surprised if he went to Canada or the U.S hiding in plain sight, like 'oh this guy looks like Muller but it cant be him we would have caught him'.
@@0michelleki020 Spoiler alert, he's still alive today and actually is Robert Mueller. He has found a way to cheat death and is now working to remake the reich from the US.
I normally save watching these for the weekend; but this time I had to, just had to hear what Mark Felton thought of what happened to Heinrich Muller. Really well done video!!
It was either that or get trained then fed to the pigs by sex starved red army troops ! Cyanide capsule all day long for most woman in Berlin at that time I suspect if of course they were lucky enough to have one as a parting gift do the maths
Wow. What a great piece of work this is. I love reading everything about the “European” part of WW2, especially the war at the East-front and all the horrors surrounding it. And also the Russian Revolution, civil war and Stalin’s rise to diabolical power are very interesting to me. As for documentaries however, I didn’t find nearly as much interesting stuff as I found in the library. There are some absolutely phenomenal documentaries but there’s also a lot of questionable stuff out there. But the videos on this channel are not just 100% accurate, often I learn something new that I had never read in books. And that’s very, very rare. It’s practically always the other way around. So Bravo for mr.Felton. This channel is an absolute enrichment for UA-cam 👍👍👍
I am inclined to think he got away. A man that efficient, pragmatic and so well schooled in espinoage would know how to go missing and stay lost. This story reminds me of the Jimmy Hendrix song "All along the Watchtower". Thanks Mark.
They are in every country. Why Robert Mogave got scot free. Putin is a KGB officer who is now a master of an enslaved nation. No body can lift his head in front of him. How about North Korea. China and many more.
The fact that he was not an extreme ideologist, as we learn from this video, he seemed to focus primarily on his work. As head of the Gestapo, surely he was most aware of the state of affairs and probably caught on pretty early on the fact that it was only a matter of time before the Allies came knocking on their front door. Thats more than enough time for for such an important figure with abundant resources and loyal personnel to divise an escape plan. Also I would like to point out that through his experience, he and his department found tens of thousands of people, if not more. He basically saw every trick in the book on how to avoid captivity. Why would he carry his identification papers with him? If he had his escape planned out, the people who would assist him have surely been with him for some time, probably his most loyal officers and soldiers and Im positive that those people got either money or gold to make it worth their while and ensure them an easier time after escaping. Lastly, if he truly was found by the Soviets, the belongings of the head of the Gestapo would sit lovely in a display at the Kremlin.
A thorough take on a mystery. Thank you! (Although I think everyone underestimates the deviousness of a career policeman. That man would have had snouts everywhere, resources tucked away everywhere and a plan to get himself out of every possible midden. I know, I policed across three decades...)
yeah I think he was way smarter than most of them, Muller would have seen the writing on the wall at least 2 yrs before 1945 and would have put his way out into plan. I always thought he ended up working for the Americans?
I think you're absolutely spot on. This man had the entire Gestapo at his disposal, and he knew how to operate this apparatus with virtuosity. In addition, he most definitely had excellent connections, several depots in several countries with money and/or other valuables and ID cards for carefully created false identities. This man was able to disappear at any time, with ease, like a fart in the wind.
I seriously doubt a guy like Muller would attempt to take his uniform or his medals with him when attempting to escape Soviets. He's not a complete moron.
If you watched the whole episode, Herr Manfeigerline tried that and was shot for Desertion. He may have only had a chance to bring himself and his uniform in order to appease Hitler in his final weeks.
@Car Tifusar I think a guy like Müller might have known a few members of the criminal underworld. I suspect a few would have decided to live through the war in Berlin. He might have contacted them and asked for their help. Would they have helped? Maybe. I suspect he could have threatened them with something. Or maybe he got payback for earlier favors. Sounds too much like a novel?
I always love listening to these analyses, and I do believe this is your magnum opus on this channel. Thank you, Dr. Felton, from one historian to another!
Uh, he's sick...my best friend's mistress's brother heard from this SS officer who went to school with this Hitler Youth kid, who knows this grave digger who saw Muller pass out at the SchnitzelHaus last night...I guess it's pretty serious.
"This building had been badly damaged in an allied air-raid in 1945 -- destroying all the extensive library of files held within." Rrrrrriiiiiiiggghht.... ;)
My father-in-law was a 23yo trilingual Hungarian in 1941, recruited by the SS, there we're many stories, but I remember him most distinctly always saying "anything could of happened in those days, and it usually did". Rest in peace those lives ruthlessly taken by the Nazi regime.
Hey I tried clicking on your response to me but it’s not letting me do it Kinda looked like you were starting to tell me a story Please retell and respond Thank you
Müller was such an ordinary looking fellow that it would have been quite possible for him to disguise himself as a civilian and escape unnoticed to almost anywhere.
Well after three days solid listening to thus channel I feel a sub is rightfully deserved, late, but deserved. This channel makes me feel I'm there with the history.
Another intriguing history lesson from you, thank you! Another interesting mystery is the story of Ivan Marchenko, the Trawniki guard of Treblinka who disappeared into the mists of history after the war ended.
Is it so unimaginable that a person who was in charge of finding people who don't want to be found knows how to not be found?

Mark Felton has the perfect voice for history docs
I am on a Dr. Mark Felton marathon today and tonight. His WW2 documentaries are the best that I've seen anywhere. I hope his books are made into movies here in the US. I will be the first in line to get tickets. Once again, thank you for your hard work, Dr. Felton. 👍
JD on History Underground does a great job as well. He is a history teacher (day job). My students watch a video just before we start a topic and it brings to life what they are learning. My hope is it sticks with them for a better world to come.
How anticlimactic would it be if it turned out he had just been obliterated by an incoming shell after leaving the Fuhrer bunker?
@CKS1949 wild animals, and not so wild (pigs, chickens, dogs) is very efficient in that kind of dirty job
That's a humourous thought, guy sneaks out and pow bloody dust
People like this have a very good operating self preservation button built in...including hitler
WELLBRAN Lmao I love conspiracy nutters that think Hitler is still alive, like all the historians are wrong but Dave here in his basement figured out what really happened to Hitler! Yeah
@@connorbranscombe6819 still alive?....who is the nutter?..you!....I'm talking of escape . Alive!..your very stupid
Another fantastic documentary Mark. I am currently reading "Heinrich Himmler" by Peter Longerich and his conclusion was "Muller was the only the member of the group (he says Brant, Muller and Kiermaier were together) who actually succeeded in disappearing without a trace. Your documentary was 28 minutes long, his book is 748 pages long and you both came to the same conclusion, no one will ever know what happened to him. Keep up the good work.
Mark is here to save us from the UA-cam algorithm.
of course he is!

Mark nailing nearly every single German word amazes me every time. And yes, I am german.
I came through here just to look if anyone already mentioned it.
Watching others trying there best on these pronunciations always invokes cringe but this video alone shows commitment.

Finally! I've been requesting about Gestapo Muller for a while now and today my wish came true! Thank you Mark Felton for the another amazing video.
That sting at the end made me do a triple-take and burst out laughing. Every single one of your videos is utterly fantastic and I love sharing this channel to my friends.

Not one mention of aliens. I find that suspicious 👽😄
I was like: Nah, this is kinda boring stuff. I'll just go to my next tab with a video ready to watch...28 minutes later...damn, this is probably one of most fascinating stories I've seen yet on this channel! What a man. What a MYSTERY!
Hermann Fegerlein does look snarky.

Watch the grey wolf fantastic film and true is well it’s about hitler getting to Argentina well worth watching
“What a man”... Really?
@@PP-xg1je I wouldn’t say “true” but I’d definitely say very plausible. The audiobook is on here on UA-cam
I have to admit that as soon as I heard "a body in SS general's uniform with Mueller's identity papers" my immediate thought was "ah, so he switched clothes with a corpse!"
My thought is that it was the radio operator...
Schultz perhaps?
@@shugardad My thoughts too! Maybe he was Mueller's unwitting fall guy?
Right, cause thats easy in the movies
@@kfeltenberger That's a thought. Dupe him into thinking you had an escape plan when in reality his escape plan was to murder him and steal his identity.
Mark Felton's voice is just perfect for this kind of narration. His diction is perfect without sounding haughty
After watching a lot of Mark Felton's WWII videos I saw the movie, "Nuremberg" I felt like I knew all of the characters.
Muller on Hitler: "That Austrian draft dodger and unemployed house painter."
That is without doubt two of sickest burns of the 20th century.
Why did he call him a draft dodger when his military career is well documented?
@@rosycandyhaven Because he left Austria to join the German army
He gave his mistress a cyanide capsule as a parting gift. What a sweetheart.
On the other hand, considering the (often deserved) reputation of Soviet soldiers for cruelty towards German women, it's... understandable, from Muller's perspective.
Better than being r@ped to death by the beasts from the east
Rusty Shackleford - that answer is most to the point. The Russians had _a lot_ of payback to collect.
@@77thTrombone I agree with your point about payback, but even if the Nazi soldiers had of been like choirboys in the east, I still think the Red Army would have acted as they did. Russian armies through history have been quite barbaric to civilians.
Chas Maravel - y'know, I just returned to this thread to make a similar point. You nailed it tho.
Of course, maybe he wanted his Liebchen to enjoy the full Red Army experience.
Love goes through seasons 🍁🌿🍂🍃.
Mark this could quite possibly be the best video you have ever done! I think he got away. He was never a true believer, and all those years would have given him the time to assemble an alternative identity, and the ways and means to pull off a disappearing act.
It's amazing that with so much video, audio and physical evidence, some deny these events ever happened!
Great work Mr. Felton.
In a weird way, the Nuremberg defendants contradict the deniers. The defendants used the excuses of "I had nothing to do with it" or "That wasn't my department" or the classic "I was just following orders." None of THEM denied the horrific events of the Nazi era ever happened!
So what does that tell you?

Shultz was not a PERSON.
He was a Man.
No one is born a PERSON.
One is either Man or WoMan (Both are different types of Man. Collectively known as ManKind)
A PERSON is a DEAD genderless CORPORATE Entity created by the Government for the purpose of conducting COMMERCE.
The PERSON im-PERSON-ates the living breathing soul. 'Man'.
You have bees so brainwashed to use the term PERSON that it is difficult to escape from using it.
Such is the power of Psychological Warfare operations on the people.

Muller once flew over the cuckoo's nest and guess who he saw there? Please see the answer below...haha, hehe
Mark your dedication to thorough research is incredibly impressive; it's one thing to say "it takes about thirteen minutes to walk from the Fuhrerbunker to Prinz Albrecht Strasse", it's another thing entirely to say "I've done it".
My French grandfather, a cinema owner in a northern town, was imprisoned by the Gestapo for a week because as an important local figure it was "his turn" to be arrested.
Not sure of what crime was committed but that was irrelevant. The Gestapo had no chance of catching the right suspect so anyone would do.
Sound bad?
On returning home, his concerned family asked how it had been.
He said he'd never laughed so much. He'd been locked up with other town notables - all friends - and they'd all played cards and told each other stories.
It must be added this was in 1944, the Gestapo knew they were losing and had no interest in needlessly creating more enemies.
But still, not the sort of story one normally associates with being jailed by the Gestapo!
He was very lucky. There were untold numbers of round ups of local ‘notables’ who were then shot/hanged in retribution for partisan activity,not just in France but in all occupied countries.

One of the best, and fantastically the longest, videos I have seen. I would love to see these areas today. Fantastically done Dr. Even more interesting, is the number of people who simply “vanished” during the end days of the war. Mass graves filled with people, who’s identity will never be known.

a practical, non ideological person had a good chance of engineering his own disappearance. I'll give it 50/50 that he succeeded and lived out his life quietly and unobtrusively...........
He had a couple of years knowing after the US entered the war the end of Nazi Germany was certain. As head of the Secret Service, his plans were secret, along with his Secret Swiss Bank Accounts of stolen wealth from nations that were invaded.
@@johndoe-ss9bz Supposition? Or do you have some practical knowledge?

If we see how Mengele, Borman had successfully made their escape,
Reinhard Gehlen who survived the war & then became GFR secret services chief,
& Eichmann who almost got away,

wouldn't be able to rig his own files at RSHA HQ with false sets of id (fingerprints among others)
when he saw the crunch coming.

This comment is made on every single one of his videos - do you guys not get bored of regurgitating the same stuff?
@@dreamcrusher112 Nope
Dear Mark, your depth of voice is mesmerizing , wanting your videos to never stop. You are a great professional and apparently a very hard worker/researcher to boot. God Bless.
Since Truman made a comment about the CIA: “I never would have agreed to the formulation of the Central Intelligence Agency back in forty-seven, if I had known it would become the American Gestapo.” and Allen Dulles who was head of the CIA as well a part of Operation Paperclip, I would say it isn't impossible that Heinrich Muller ended his days as a retired employee of the US government under Operation Paperclip as one of the architects of the CIA.
Just as Gehlen.
Lol Truman is the father of evils the CIA inherited so take his words with a jar of salt.
yeah, sure, conspiracy-theorist
@@Scion-cy6wj This is definitely a conspiracy but it isn't a theory...do your reseacrh.
@@jimjim2272 um, dumb-dumb, you need to get a clue, then you need to get a grip, then you need to get out of mom's basement ...
Müller was actually highly intelligent and possessed a photographic memory which is why his interrogation techniques were so successful. He simply waited for them to trip up with their fabricated stories as he remembered everything they ever said. He was the ideal police officer. He also hated the communists with a vengeance and would never allow himself to be captured by them and certainly never work for them.
He would have been extremely valuable to the CIA or its predecessor as his knowledge of Soviet operations and his extensive spy network would just about be impossible to resist with the approaching Cold War. America rightly would deny all knowledge. Food for thought.
What about historical speculation that he actually had been a Communist like Bormann.
Exactly. The OSS and Allen Dulles knew all about Müller and needed him in the era of Realpolitik of the Cold War for his knowledge of the Communist apparatus. He was used by the Americans and given cover in return, protected from the prying eyes of British, Israeli and other American intelligence agencies. Files remain sealed in both Langley and The National Archive UK.
@@simonstock4448 : That sounds like mere speculation on your part.
@Car Tifusar Read the 2000 book "Hitler's Traitor". Also Reinhardt Gehlen was on the record for 'connecting the dots'..
@Car Tifusar r u for real?
What a piercing gaze. Thank you for the quality content, Mark. It's unparalleled on UA-cam.
There's this one guy, War Stories with Mark Felton, he's pretty good.
Thorough, factual, and priceless World War 2 history. A+
Superb offering. One hypothesis I read, proposes Muller hid for months in secret tunnels under the Gestapo headquarters. He later was able, with false documents, to escape to England where he lived, until the late 80’s, as butler of the Felton estate.
😂
that was one hell of a wild ride, thanks for the talk Mark!
8:45 Misch wrote in "Hitler's Last Witness" that the sight of Müller was a greater concern for him than the death of Hitler or the advancing Red Army. He thought that Müller planned to kill all the inhabitants of the Führerbunker at the last moment, thus leaving no witnesses of Hitler's last days. He even thought the bunker might be have been fitted with demolition charges during its construction.
Coincidentally, I was researching Muller today, I was looking into the possibilities of him surviving the end of WW2. I believe it's possible he got away and fled. I wouldn't say he fled to Argentina specifically as since he was calculating he might have been able to deduce he would be hunted there and decided to avoid it to cover his tracks. He might have gone to Chile
I wouldn't be surprised if he went to Canada or the U.S hiding in plain sight, like 'oh this guy looks like Muller but it cant be him we would have caught him'.
Back in the day, there were sightings of him in Damascus, Syria. A perfect, extremely anti-sematic place for him to be.
He fled to Las Vegas where he is hiding with Elvis
@@0michelleki020 Spoiler alert, he's still alive today and actually is Robert Mueller. He has found a way to cheat death and is now working to remake the reich from the US.
He might have even gotten to the USA!
As always Mark......very interesting and phenomenal history being brought to light.
I normally save watching these for the weekend; but this time I had to, just had to hear what Mark Felton thought of what happened to Heinrich Muller. Really well done video!!
"He gave her a vile of cyanide as a parting gift"...for the girl who had everything...from the fellah who helped throw it all away.
A gift all of us would like to give an ex mistress.
well... her fault for getting involved with him.
It was either that or get trained then fed to the pigs by sex starved red army troops !
Cyanide capsule all day long for most woman in Berlin at that time I suspect if of course they were lucky enough to have one as a parting gift do the maths
Time for a history lesson, thanks Mark!
Wow. What a great piece of work this is. I love reading everything about the “European” part of WW2, especially the war at the East-front and all the horrors surrounding it. And also the Russian Revolution, civil war and Stalin’s rise to diabolical power are very interesting to me. As for documentaries however, I didn’t find nearly as much interesting stuff as I found in the library. There are some absolutely phenomenal documentaries but there’s also a lot of questionable stuff out there.
But the videos on this channel are not just 100% accurate, often I learn something new that I had never read in books. And that’s very, very rare. It’s practically always the other way around.
So Bravo for mr.Felton. This channel is an absolute enrichment for UA-cam 👍👍👍
I am inclined to think he got away. A man that efficient, pragmatic and so well schooled in espinoage would know how to go missing and stay lost.
This story reminds me of the Jimmy Hendrix song "All along the Watchtower".
Thanks Mark.
@Gary Daniel Yeah, but Jimmy's version is way better. Nice job Google...
When questioned Schultz replied .... "I See Nothing, Nothing Noooothing"
Similar Gestapo setup now exists in Hong Kong.
In America too, they are seeking the supporters of the republican party. They spy on them and use propaganda against them.
And in Ireland. Banned from commenting on newspaper articles, followed and labelled a subversive. Dancing with destiny.
They are in every country. Why Robert Mogave got scot free. Putin
is a KGB officer who is now a master of an enslaved nation. No body can lift his head in front of him. How about North Korea. China and many
more.
Oh dear
@@Bidenislying the hell are you talking about?
The fact that he was not an extreme ideologist, as we learn from this video, he seemed to focus primarily on his work. As head of the Gestapo, surely he was most aware of the state of affairs and probably caught on pretty early on the fact that it was only a matter of time before the Allies came knocking on their front door. Thats more than enough time for for such an important figure with abundant resources and loyal personnel to divise an escape plan. Also I would like to point out that through his experience, he and his department found tens of thousands of people, if not more. He basically saw every trick in the book on how to avoid captivity. Why would he carry his identification papers with him? If he had his escape planned out, the people who would assist him have surely been with him for some time, probably his most loyal officers and soldiers and Im positive that those people got either money or gold to make it worth their while and ensure them an easier time after escaping.
Lastly, if he truly was found by the Soviets, the belongings of the head of the Gestapo would sit lovely in a display at the Kremlin.
Yes.
Which they do not... Lol
A thorough take on a mystery. Thank you! (Although I think everyone underestimates the deviousness of a career policeman. That man would have had snouts everywhere, resources tucked away everywhere and a plan to get himself out of every possible midden. I know, I policed across three decades...)
yeah I think he was way smarter than most of them, Muller would have seen the writing on the wall at least 2 yrs before 1945 and would have put his way out into plan. I always thought he ended up working for the Americans?
I think you're absolutely spot on. This man had the entire Gestapo at his disposal, and he knew how to operate this apparatus with virtuosity. In addition, he most definitely had excellent connections, several depots in several countries with money and/or other valuables and ID cards for carefully created false identities. This man was able to disappear at any time, with ease, like a fart in the wind.
@@68majortom Most likely ended up in the US as part of "operation paperclip" and was given a new identity.
I seriously doubt a guy like Muller would attempt to take his uniform or his medals with him when attempting to escape Soviets. He's not a complete moron.
If you watched the whole episode, Herr Manfeigerline tried that and was shot for Desertion. He may have only had a chance to bring himself and his uniform in order to appease Hitler in his final weeks.
It’s been 75 years, and they still can’t find him!
@Car Tifusar I think a guy like Müller might have known a few members of the criminal underworld. I suspect a few would have decided to live through the war in Berlin. He might have contacted them and asked for their help. Would they have helped? Maybe. I suspect he could have threatened them with something. Or maybe he got payback for earlier favors.
Sounds too much like a novel?
@Chicago Slabs and Stuff
Yes we did. But very few know or remember...

You are a gem. Fantastic presentation. Why is history not taught this way? So many need to know and study your content.
Müller was such an ordinary looking fellow that it would have been quite possible for him to disguise himself as a civilian and escape unnoticed to almost anywhere.
Well after three days solid listening to thus channel I feel a sub is rightfully deserved, late, but deserved. This channel makes me feel I'm there with the history.
Müller is the one who gave a thumbs down to this vid.

Another intriguing history lesson from you, thank you! Another interesting mystery is the story of Ivan Marchenko, the Trawniki guard of Treblinka who disappeared into the mists of history after the war ended.
Fascinating. Muller was the villain in the famous Soviet show "17 Moments of Spring". Amazing video as always, Mark!
