    pfft who needs evidence it says so on the interweb!!

    Yeah,plus it's going to be in a film - so I suppose it must be true!

    Stalin kept Hitler's skull as an ash tray.

    Had he been alive, he would have come to Ireland with the rest of them, and possibly have been invited by TCD to take part in the odd debate or two.

    I reckon Hitler died in his bunker.
    But you never know. He wouldnt be the first leader who ran down the road while the enemy was closing in.

    After all his body was 'burned' well before the russians made it to the bunker. Who was to say it was really Hitlers body.

    Based on what evidence?
    Would not surprise me if it was true though. So many Nazi's escaped to Argentina. The Roman Catholic Church was doing a lot for the Nazi's to escape from Berlin and Germany after the war. So it could be possible with Hitler.

    Fortunately, the number of war criminals they helped to escape is dwarfed by the number of innocent Jews etc. that they helped. And I doubt Hitler was among either number.

    Leaving aside the extent of the involvement of the Catholic Church in establishing the "ratline" to Argentina, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. So far no credible evidence has been forthcoming that Hitler escaped Berlin - to keep something like that secret for so long would be quite incredible. The full account of "Hitler's escape" as detailed in the book is here - lots of far-fetched claims. The most ridiculous one is that a wily old survivor like General Franco put his backside on the line to help Hitler escape!

    ... not to be dismissed straight off, but they better have some solid proof.

    (likely just book/film revenue scam as someone else said..IF so authors are azzhles and timewasting scumbags)

    No one said otherwise. Just would not surprise if it was true. Just my view on it.

    Have ordered a copy of the book so will be interested to see what evidence if any, they have.

    (In the Sky video they mention a number of statements from people that supposedly flew the evil man out and received him at the other end, I hope they back that up with more evidence.)

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMERSH
    As the war concluded, SMERSH was given the assignment of finding Adolf Hitler and, if possible, capturing him alive or recovering his body. Red Army officers and SMERSH agents found Hitler's partially burned corpse near the Führerbunker after his suicide and conducted an investigation to confirm the events of his death and identify the remains which (along with those of Eva Braun) were reportedly secretly buried at SMERSH headquarters in Magdeburg until April 1970, when they were exhumed, completely cremated, and dumped in the Elbe river.
    To a war weary population the spectre of Hitler being around to die another day would have left them without a quantum of solace.

    So 99% of historians, some of whom are internationally recognised as leading authorities of the life on Hitler have all been wrong for the last 60 odd years. Out of the blue, two complete unknowns suddenly unearth this. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence and so far they have not provided it, because it does not exist I suspect.

    They've got you now Biggins.
    Lets be honest, all this is just to sell some books and make some money.

    Your right, Keith. The RCC brought him here to Ireland and De Valera got jealous and had him sent to rural Donegal and there he fathered a son who later grew up to be a great Irish leader,
    Gerry Adams.

    no where near 99% of historians believe that.



    there is little concrete evidence to prove hitler killed himself in his bunker. as has already been said, the alleged skull was infact a females.


    the russians were racing with the west to take over berlin, its quite possible that a fabrication involving hitlers death was created inorder to claim victory over the nazi's ahead of the west.

    it would be quite an embarrasment to take over berlin to defeat hitler, only to find he had fled the country. its not beyond the scope of stalin to create such a thing, and the west would have no choice but to accept his word as truth.

    because of the mystery and lack of proof, conspiracy theories are to be expected. the fact that many high ranking nazi leaders also fled to argentina only helps the conspiracy further.

    the lack of evidence also forces historians to accept this possibilty, the winner of the war writes the history books etc.

    This book uses pictures from the Berhgof and attempts to pass them off as Hitler living it up in Argentina. Fail.
