History should never be swept under the rug even if it offends people . Thank you for your vids!

I first learned about this in grade 6, now as an adult, I still can’t fully reconcile how people can be so evil and cruel to others like this. So much hatred for a fellow human being and for what? The cognitive dissonance those who participated in these murders must have been something else, how could they sleep at night? No conscience?

Just because something may be hard to hear/watch doesn’t mean it’s offensive. It’s part of our history and should never be forgotten, even though it was extremely atrocious. You did an extremely thorough & respectful job on this video. Major props on this one.

The fact that they had to go in a chamber full of dead people, especially their people, is spine chilling I couldn’t imagine

I study the Holocaust closely as part of my degree and I’m super impressed by the level of detail and work that went into this video! I rarely see people talk about the euthanasia program that predated the death camps and even fewer mention that it started with kids. I also love that you mention the clergy’s role and the end of the official euthanasia program. I didn’t expect the such great detail and attention and I thank you for bringing this information to more people! Edit: I don’t know why my comment attracted so many Holocaust deniers but hop off my dick please I don’t have time for conspiracy theories that deny the suffering of millions of people

I learned in school in germany, that these gas vans were deprecated, because drivers complained about the screams and knocking they were hearing every day and that this also made them psychologically ill. And also, it was too slow, for the nazis... How broken does a human have to be to complain about psychological stress of killing others and requesting a more efficiant method to do so...

I’m happy that you’re keeping this information and what actually happened alive but at the same time it really makes me feel sick to my stomach that monsters like this exist throughout history

"There's no light hearted way to approach this topic" Light hearted cartoon depiction of genocide in the background.

This was a tough one for the show, FOR SURE! I admire the courage you took doing this one. Keep up the amazing content brother !!

its disgusting how there was more empathy for the cruel soldiers who suffered mental fatigue over the people that ACTUALLY suffered

In Germany, I beliehe almost ever school class will take a “trip” to a concentration camp. My school went to Buchenwald every year as it was closest to me school. It’s just SO surreal to walk through the rooms with the ovens where they burned the corpses. Even if it’s very very far from a feel good trip, I would encourage everybody to visit one, just to see this in real life. You read about it, you watch documentaries about it, but to actually stand there and see things with your own eyes is just something different.

I have mental disorder and a regular at mental hospital. Seeing physically and mentally disabled peoples are being treated cruelly in the past make me grateful i live in this era.

I love learning stuff like this, and even though it may offend people we should never forget real events like this

Actually the 'iron fist' is more of an outside view. Ny great grandmother told me it was more of a blame shifting, othering and pleasing the majority of the country by stroking their ego to coaxing them to do as the party pleased. It's just a rumor that most of them were disguised as showers. EVERYONE knew what it was. They just chose to ignore it or try to work so hard, they were irreplaceable. Otherwise Schindler's List wouldn't have been working. They were deemed essential for the state, so they couldn't be killed, everyone knew the chambers were for killing. But you can't get around dying either by getting shot or gas. Some people like the family Maltzahn, did their share, the brought Jewish or 'Gypsy' people to safety by transporting them into potato sacks across the border to Hungary, giving them a chance to flee. They weren't caught. I learned this first hand from the dairy she wrote. My grandmother on my father's side escaped the gas chambers as a young, undiagnosed autistic woman, otherwise she would have been sterilized by force, gassed and never had my father..

This was a bit hard to learn and made my stomach churn a bit. I wanted to shed a tear. This thing should have never happened, but I am glad that you were able to spread the truth about how horrific and despicable this event was.

The Information in this video is so sensitive and brutal. Thankyou for these videos I’m finally paying attention to history.

Not even 100 years ago. Insane. Absolutely insane how recent in history these atrocities were.

May history never repeat itself. This was great. This was bold. This revealed many stories that were untold.

Thank you for this! I may need this for school because of the unit we’re doing, so this video helps a ton!

Thank you for making this

Its crazy that its even possible to talk anyone in the participation of killing countless innocent woman and children.. Even babies. How can people become evil so easily

I appreciate videos like this, where it just delivers the cold hard truth and details as it should be. Straight to the point and not candy coated. Have to legit say, learning about history in 2022 on the internet, is far more intriguing than learning about it through textbooks in a high school school classroom bungalow in the early 2000s.

Thank you for this.

Poor people 💔 absolutely horrific 😢 We must never let anything like this happen again

If we ignore the mistakes of the past we will inevitably repeat it. We can never let this happen again. Great video love what you all do! ❤️

While I did learn a lot from this video, it was still hard to sit through. However I think it is important to learn the truth's of what happened, and be educated on the matter.

Well there goes monetization. It's so insane they actually did this, WW2 is so sad and tragic and should never be forgotten. Thanks for this video.

Thank you for putting this information out there. Knowledge is a powerful tool. May history not repeat itself.

To think someone thought about this is mind blowingly sad

You got the best animations man. Keep up the great work! Favorite channel to watch. Always new uploads and always more than interesting. Appreciate the hard work!

If it was true it wouldn't be illegal to question it.

The truth needs to be known, especially in a case such as this. Let history never repeat itself.

I'm a huge history buff so I'm honestly glad you guys covered this instead of shying away from the topic like others. Informative but not boring. Well done 👍

Oh wow, I thought this was an old upload but no. Great job inforgraphic!! This just showed me how much was left out while learning about this bleak, horrible event. My soul is torn thinking of the other stories that were never clear to me until now

My dad went to a camp just a few years after the war. It was just left as is nobody was around. He said it was really creepy.

Been to concentration camps in Germany and Poland. Also went to S21 in Phnom Penh. That place had a much darker feel and energy about it. Poland also felt different than Munich and Dachau. Cambodia was just on the next level of cruelty.

History was one of my favorite classes in school. It's not always nice and pretty to study, but should be, to avoid repetition of horrible events, and to remember any victims and the people who tried to fight back. Good job infographics.

Those that forget history are bound to repeat it.

There’s a prison with a working gas chamber in Arizona. It’s made of glass and metal and has a door with rubber seals for keeping the gas contained.

I love how you were able to take such a sentimental and sensitive topic and explain it the way it was! Thank you

It's rather easy to talk about this in times of peace. But if we had to witness the horrors of the past, we could barely find words to describe it. I never understood why innocent people get such cruel deaths, what have those children, men and women ever do in life to deserve such a gruesome death?

These animations are insane

Thanks for the DIY tutorial! 👍🏽

I live in Germany not that far away from Hadamar and we visited Hadamar with our schoolclass...we were lead down into the cellar into the gas chamber that were disguised as a shower room and they closed the door behind us for a few minutes...I will never forget this experience...a lot of my classmates made fun of it, propably trying to play down their own discomfort...after that in the next room there was tilted "operation table" made of concrete and the next door was the crematory... just trying to imagine what must've gone through the heads of all the ppl that walked this path makes me question if there is any hope for humanity if we are capable of inflicting such horrible things to our fellows...it is not just a wish but our responsibility to make sure anything like this can never happen again!

It’s truly unfortunate just how much evil in mankind’s history exists, and how without it we would never be able to completely appreciate the goodness which comes from it.

Hard /painful to believe that some visitors death camps , include folk who are only too happy to enhance their social media profile with selfies taken at such places

I just learned more about that horrific part of history than I did in history class. That was a hard one to post for sure but thank you for giving us a better education on this.

I still remember my visit to Dachau, just how modern and unsuspecting the "showers" looked is what shook me the most.

People need to learn the difference between offensive and offended. Just because you watched this and felt offended, doesnt mean its offensive. If you're one of the hopfully, many people who watched this and found it uncomfortable, thats a good thing. It shows you have a slight understanding of just how bad this was, and means the chances of something like this happening again is less likely.

I was in 6th grade when we were taught about the holocaust and I really couldn’t process it for almost a year and still can’t as an adult, there is absolutely no way of justifying it and holocaust deniers make me sick to my very core

"There's no light way to approach this." *comical animated people screaming*

Never forget: This actually happened. And it wasn't monsters or aliens who did the killing ... it was, for the most part, "normal", everyday folks who did this.

Wooden Doors…

Thank you for an excellent summary of this history that will help people to understand the technical aspects of a very dark era.

This was a hard one to sit through but none the less was very informative and important for the world to still learn of past atrocities that were committed. Thank you for the great commentary on this!

I’an black and I’m sitting here like this is awful and nobody deserves this and this should never be forgotten. However It’s weird that all our tragedies offends people and some how it should be forgotten

You left out the part about the wooden doors

My Uncle, Bernard, with the family moving to Zurich, Switzerland, in 1905, from Lodz, Poland, after my Grandfather was forced into the Russian Cavalry, as Poland was part of Russia then, for the Russo-Japanese War. He was in Paris in 1940, when France fell to the Germans then, and was rounded up, never heard from again. I know that on my Mother's side, many relatives in Lodz, we're rounded up too under the German occupation and ended up in the German Concentration Camps. In 1972, traveling back to Europe from the US, I saw the sign for the town of Dachau, one of the Camps, outside Munich, Germany.

I love history, I belive its essential for everyone to learn even the ugliest parts of our history so we don't repeat it, and I just find history and humans in general so interesting

Ty for the tut

Seeing this video made me aware of the hate that can be generated in people … not unlike what a certain news station does 24 hours a day.

I always enjoy watching these kind of videos. It’s sad seeing how gruesome things like this are, but it’s important to know it so we can learn from it and not do it again.

Thanks for the additional information. Humanity can be so evil at times.😕

Although the video focusses on horrific events from the past, if anyone is interested I would like to respond to the definition of euthanasia. It's mostly correct, but patients in a coma are not euthanized in modern medicine. If a coma is irreversible, the measures in place to keep them alive (such as mechanical breathing and feeding) are deemed ineffective and meaningless/pointless interventions from a medical perspective. Therefore, stopping this treatment would be a very complex medical decision. This decision weighs heavily but is not to be mistaken for euthanasia, which is the active process to en a life, usually using medication. It's important to note that in a coma, there may not be conscious suffering from a medical perspective, and active euthanasia (actively ending a life) is generally not permitted in such cases. 1:05

Diesel engines lol, that would be the worst exhaust to use

Always be grateful that we live in a world where (at least for most parts, that is) peace is the main theme. We might get into arguments with others or have other troubles, but that's nothing comparing to the horror and sorrow war would bring back then

This was a very delicately delivered video and the infographics team should be proud of themselves for educating people so well yet so respectfully. I’ve never seen this handled so gently yet effectively. Truly the worst atrocity ever, it’s forever heart breaking that anyone could engage in so much cruelty.

We did have gas chamber for execution purposes here in America. Now see how they were built and designed for safety reason compared to the allegedly German from ww2. You will see the incoherence of the story which lead to legitimate questioning… Not to mention basics fluid mechanic 101 and that a gas is very volatile and hard to contain and seal and the gas used was very flammable if not explosive in contact with heat or fire and very toxic and the walls very porous and the wooden door with single glass window wouldn’t seal the chamber at all…. And the facility is build right next the continuous burning oven and chimneys… this would be an explosive cocktail and lethal to all in the premises in reality…

"What are we holding onto Sam?" "That there's some good in this world Mr. Frodo, and it's worth fighting for"

That was a LOT of pertinent and educational information packed into an 11 and a half minute video, VERY well done and relevant. This could and should be shown in every high school history class in America. Never forget.

I visited KZ Buchenwald. I never experienced such a deep fear deep in my body. I was in a chamber - alone. But it didnt felt like i was alone. The echo of every sound came back as something different, making me think people are arround me, yelling, screaming. Even after visiting that place the strong emotional relation which came up made me dream very dark stuff of grey buildings and suffering

They got the best transitions ngl

Boggles my mind all the people in the comments praising the need for the hard facts of history yet have no issue of the censoring of true raw revisionist facts, clown world.

Two small things: the name T4 was not given to the "euthanasia" action until after WWII, and the gas vans used carbon monoxide, not dioxide. Other than that, an impressive and informative piece of work. Points for mentioning the Belzec camp (it's actually spelled "Belzets" BTW) - a forgotten place that was one of the most important camps of the Holocaust. Big thumbs up.

Heartbreaking. Thank you for educating us though.

Dude, those animations. 10/10 for both being totally tasteless as well as absolutely entertaining and hilarious.

Thank you for the video. Its a harsh harsh world and People can get so twisted when led by one psychopat.

Depressing, but should not be forgotten. Keep up the good work.

It's good to have educational videos like this. History no matter how bad or shameful it is needs to be learned, not ignored no matter how much it offends others. We learn history so people of the future won't repeat it. If something in history makes you feel uncomfortable, all the better because then you're most likely not to repeat it.

A year has 8766 hours, it takes 2 hours to bake a bread in 1942.

I am SO GLAd you made this video to bring the murders of disabled people to light. Here in Oregon where I live they are really promoting euthanasia of elderly and disabled people. Very scary.

This is exactly the type of video we need today! its important for this to be taught in schools, Because if do not remember the past it will have a sneaky way of repeating itself. to avoid that we need to talk about what happened in order to not repeat it. Thank you infographics show

Showing windows on a gas chamber.. 🤔

Thanks for keeping alive the history of human death at the hands of human kin - Never Forget!

wooden doors

I'm half Jewish on my dad's side, and my great-grandparents were lucky enough to leave Poland right before it was invaded. They left to go to America through Ellis Island, and I can't imagine what could of happened if they didn't leave soon enough.

As an Austrian student in 8th grade we took a field trip to one of these facilities or in German we call them ,,Vernichtungs Lager’‘ in Hartheim where they showed us alle the rooms the actual chambers an the crematorium. It was a strange feeling that a small and innocent looking building caused so much death and pain

0:05 not the cute animations 💀

Now this is a video I can get behind

Thank you for the information you bring in your videos. I can see y’all do allot of research

“Those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it.” ― Edmund Burke

History should never be repeated. This is why.

Thanks for mentioning the Roma/Sinti victims. They usually get lost in the conversations because they had no one to help them keep track of prisoners and victims who died.

For people wanting to know more about the euthanasia program: look up "Aktion T4" (T4 was briefly mentioned, but maybe it was not completely clear). Zyklon-B kills in the same way that carbon monoxide does, only in a more active way. The cyanide (CN-) replaces the oxygen that is needed to make the system work that provides your cells with energy. (Look up "Electron transport chain" for more info) It is different from suffocation, but the effects are the same: due to lack of oxygen, the energy production system stops working, and the cells die. PS: you made a typo: the sign on the Auschwitz camp entrance (at 10:11 in the video) says "Arbiet" instead of "Arbeit".

Why did they use wooden doors though?

Please also do one on holdomor

As part of a school trip we actually just went last week to harthein . I actually never heard of killing camps until we were there on the school trip and truth be told i was shocked because hardly anyone that I know even heard of harthein before. Thank you for your video this should be shared with more people!

I see lots of people talking about the fact that some can get offended by history. The fact of the matter is that this happened and it is important to learn about it. History can be cruel, but that's why we need to take the time to educate ourselves so we do not live through it again.

Very informative but respectful way of telling the horrific story of the genocide
