  • Throughout the Second World War, there were many different torture methods used inside of the concentration camps. One brutal guard who was known as the Tiger of Auschwitz was Wilhelm Boger, a sadistic SS official who was known as a torturer. He even invented his own torture method, the Boger Swing in which a prisoner was suspended from a bar in the air, and then beaten badly by guards. This torture method was ruthless and could even result in the deaths of a prisoner.

    How sickening that anyone such as Wilhelm Boger would stoop to such abhorrent things as having helpless inmates tortured using the so-called Boger swing, as described in this video. This shows how depraved and godless the Nazis and their collaborators were in torture and murder. Such sickening and abhorrent evil! Thank you for this eye-opening video of this dark chapter in world history.

      100% true but unfortunately various torture devices and evil sadistic people inflicting such torture have been around LONG before the 3rd Reich. The Russians and the GULAGS were just as bad and going back to the medieval time sadistic people and their devices are ancient! Have you ever heard of the 'Bronze Bull'??

    This is the complete statement of th witness Dounia Zlata Wasserstrom
    In November 1944, a lorry arrived with children on it. The lorry stopped near the barracks. A little boy aged between four and five jumped down from the lorry. He had an apple in his hand. I don't know where the children came from. Standing in the doorway were [Wilhelm] Boger and [Hans] Draser. I myself was standing at the window. The child was standing next to the lorry with the apple. Boger went up to the child, grabbed him by the feet and threw him head first against the wall. He pocketed the apple. Then Draser came to me and ordered me to wipe 'that on the wall'. So I did. An hour later, Boger came and called me to interpret. He ate the apple. I saw the whole thing with my own eyes. The child was dead. An SS man took the dead child away.

    Boger was not a guard. He was a "police-officer" working for the Gestapo. As such, he wasn't under the command of Höss, the commandant, but under the officers of the Gestapo-Leitstelle/GestapA/RSHA IV C-2 (Eichmann). Furthermore: What you describe as "Boger Schaukel" here, was the less brutal (as they thought) version. The real Boger Swing or Parrot Swing had the prisoner hanging with his head down and the bar in his knees (see here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pau_de_arara
    And as usual: Please, for God's sake, at least try to spell the names correctly.

    This isn't half as bad as this account. In "Stolen Soul", Bernard Holstein talks about how doctors at Auschwitz attempted to prove Aryan superiority by collecting Jewish semen from masturbation machines that often killed its subjects. "But we never gave in, not really; there was the one time right before liberation but other than that we were strong. We would see the boys they put on those masturbating machines just drop, just die, right there in front of us. The absolute cruelty was beyond our belief." Page 117. Then there was the one where the prisoner would stick a gun barrel through a wall hole and it would curve around and shoot him in the head (Tom & Jerry Cartoon style). Then there's the one where they would throw the prisoner in a cage to be mauled by a Bear and then an Eagle would eat the flesh off the dead body. These were real assertions made by those victors writing the history for you today.

    Watching these videos is highly disturbing because of the detailed explanation of how people were tortured. My heart was already broken from just listening to how this man’s fury increased exponentially resulting in what happened to the people on that evil device. I’m pretty sure that I’m not the only person here whose heart then crumbled to dust as we were told what he did to that 5 year old child clinging to their apple. I question how someone can do that? What could possibly cause a human being to do that to another human being, let alone an innocent 5 year old child ? The only logical answer I can find is, it’s demonic. One’s heart needs to be filled with pure evil in order to do that. It breaks my heart to think of that child, and all the other children who were being taken to the gas chamber on that truck. It actually messes up my head. Who would do that… to children!!
    The cherry on the cake is the common thread that I see amongst these people after they were defeated. I shouldn’t be surprised because I know what to expect, but I am always surprised each time anyway. The selfish cowards ran like dogs with their tails between their legs, doing whatever they could to evade justice because they knew that what they had done was wrong. This man’s cowardice was so great that he put himself in a corner of a field covered in dust, thinking that no one would look for him there. But he was wrong! Their leader was the greatest coward of them all. He stood up in front of millions and coerced them into performing evil deeds against humanity, but when the time came for him to face the music, he proved himself a coward by taking his own life.
    In ending, no, I do not like watching these videos. They affect me deeply however, when I stand back and look at the bigger picture, I see that it is necessary to do so because we simply can not allow ourselves to be ignorant to what the heart of mankind is capable of doing.
    Guard your heart, love everyone, trust nobody.

    It is 2024, get to the point. I don't have time for a history lesson prior to you getting to the point that is the title of this video.

      Oh, and Biden is SO MUCH BETTER! at least Trump has the American people his biggest concern. You must have a screw loose of u think this county is in a better place than when Trump was in office! How about all the fucking illegals invading our county? How about how Biden sold all of our reserve oil? Or letting Afghanistan fall into terrorists hands, and leaving all the equipment there for then to use? Oh, and he is SO SKILLED at WALKING! 😂😂😂
