This video probably took longer to make than Goebbel's government

I can remember when “The history channel” first came to be in the early 90’s, I was hooked. So many war stories from WWII. Slowly it turned to reality garbage. I stopped watching. I found Mark Felton’s channel a few days ago. Hello real history. God bless you Mark Felton. You’ve answered my prayers.

“Goebbels refused to leave for reasons of humanity and personal loyalty.” The idea of Goebbels doing ANYTHING in the name of humanity is painfully ironic.

It's impossible to watch this without commenting. The incredible detail of information is just superb. Thank you so much for keeping this vital history alive. You're a genius.

Me: switch tablet on for latest world news Tablet: There's also Mark Felton's last news on the Third Reich in WWII Me: OK, first things first

Nothing brightens up my morning like a new Mark Felton video

I work with some pensioners who lived through the war, one chap I visit has some fascinating stories I could listen to him for hours. He used to live in Wanstead London when he was a lad, and told me about the POW camp that was on Wanstead Flats. It held Italian and German POWs and was there until around 1948. He told me that it never really was a prison camp as you would imagine, particularly once the war had ended the soldiers used to manage themselves and there were not many soldiers guarding them. Towards the end there wasn’t even a fence and the prisoners used to do work in the local area, they would socialise with the locals and play in local football teams, attend local churches etc. He said many families would invite prisoners round for to eat an evening meal with them. In fact quite a few local girls ended up marrying a young German or Italian lad and starting families and many opted to stay in Britain after they were released which is why in London you have Italian restaurants and Ice Cream parlours that the soldiers set up. Apparently his father happily took on young Germans to work for him after they were released as he said they were very good workers, he owned an engineering firm. His father told him that getting to know the POWs they realised they were just young lads conscripted into the army who had no choice and it wasn’t them who started the war. They realised they were just like their sons and brothers who were sent off to fight - they didn’t have a choice. I think its a great story how people are just people and it’s politicians and governments and tyrants who cause wars not young men and women starting out in life.

Mark honesty, I consider your channel as one of the best around… if not the best. Some of the obscure stories are thoroughly researched and very well told. Awesome

This video takes up more than 1% of Goebbels' time as Reichschancellor.

Mark ALWAYS has something new, some tidbit that fills in the gaps, some perspective that I hadn't seen before.

Again, thank you for these broadcasts! They are very informative. I feel as if I'm learning so much!

thank you for uploading this: I think Mark Felton is an excellent historian!

Who else finds Mark Felton videos to be incredibly interesting? Like make you stay up in the middle of the night just to watch his videos interesting?

I wish we had a history professor like Mark in our school days.... Thanks for keeping this eagerness to know about history by your videos

Another excellent video, thank you for posting it.✌🏼

WOW! Great production, research and content!

You can see most of these events in the Movie "DownFall" , with Bruno Ganz.

I was born and lived many years in Berlin before moving to the United States. I remember my Grandfather telling me how he met Mr. Goebbels before the War after a speech he gave at the Sportpalast Arena around 1938. Unfortunately, he was impressed by Goebbel's charisma and devotion to the Fatherland. My memories are those playing in the rubble and having many childhood friends who lost their fathers during the War. My family lost everything after the war due to Russian confiscation. It is difficult for Germans like me to watch those old newsreels and all the destruction and atrocities.

As a student of history, thank you ever so much Dr Felton for all of your contributions to the field.

Great work. Impressive detail. Well done. Learned much , thank you.

I just finished watching 'Downfall' and now Mark spooks me with this video.

Time for bed. "Mark Felton published a new video!" I don't need sleep.

The actor who played Goebbles in downfall was great, a bit too tall but all the fanatical and creepy

Great lessons to learn in all these history videos.. I can get so lost in history but yet as i see the world today its repeating itself all over again… thank you for posting these videos i so love them…

"disposing of her children" was a pretty shocking thing for a parent to do

Last year I was visiting my sister in law in Berlin. I ate in an Indian restaurant and then walked a few blocks towards a Shopping Mall. Shockingly, I came across the remnants of the Fuhrerbunker located in a rather nondescript parking lot. I know Mark has covered this but it was eerie being near the bunker in person. As always, thanks Mark for such a thorough history presentation.

By far the most important historical videos on earth at the moment.

After viewing all of your videos, I find this one the best by far. Bravo, Mark!

I’m currently reading The Diaries of Joseph Geobells (1942-1943) as well as the Final Entries 1945. They are fascinating and an interesting peek into the inner workings of the regime. Highly recommended to anyone interested in this period of history.

The last joke from the Führerbunker/Berlin, laughed at Hitler too: "you can take the tram from the eastern front to the western front." :D

Another excellent presentation from Mr. Felton!

I love this guy. His intro music is hype. It's always a pleasure to watch the videos.

Interesting fact: Günther Schwägermann is actually still alive (or at least no date of death was ever provided). He'll be 105 in a few days

As depressing as these subjects can be the sheer amount of details and factual accuracy its very upbringing. I enjoy your videos very much Mark!

Not only beautifully written and produced, but Mr. Felton has a plummy voice and clear diction. A pleasure all around.

Ehat a fantastic channel. I've learned so many new things about ww2 from his videos.

I was just having my tea time and as I heard you state that Hitler and Eva died at 3.30pm, I looked at my clock and saw it was exactly 3.300pm. 😳

The scene when Goebbels children was killed in Der Untergang was really saddening

Excellent informative video, thank you.

This channel brings nourishment for the soul in a time of isolation. Many thanks, Dr Felton.

And Mark does it again .... This channel is pure class 👍👍

I love this channel. It is done with great authority and historical integrity.

Nice work Mark always enjoy your videos.

Absolutely Brilliant! Very well done, edited, narrated and overall... an Incredible Historical vid and one of the most impressively made re this period of WWII. Nice One. Liked and Subbed

These videos are fantastic, the quality and depth of knowledge, love your style I look forward to watching these

I love your videos… idk if it’s good that I’m enjoying this kind of content this much but between your voice, the way you explain everything, and all the pictures you include I’m HOOKED!

This video is a special one ! Thank you very much of that !

"Downfall" the movie (Der Untergang) dramatizes what Mark covered here very well - a must see.

Just hearing the opening music gets me all juiced up to watch another great piece of historical research.

Good work. Thank you.

I love your documentaries. Thank you 🙏

Yet ANOTHER great video, having watched the film Downfall I know a bit about the last days of the war but still learnt some facts from this video.

You almost always have something new I've never heard of, and even when I've heard of it before. You've better quality then I've seen before. Good job

My mornings are always brightend up by a Felton video

Love this guys page! I’ve learned so much from him!

Nice to see this talked about, most people usually skip over this.

Keep up the good work Mark very interesting stuff, clicked as fast as I could.

Another amazingly detailed video

Always interesting, thank you.

I never tire of hearing Mark's recounting of the events of WWII.

Always a thumbs up for Mark Felton Productions. 👍🏻

Just a fantastic channel. What strikes me, the pictures of total war, the destruction, the raw firepower. Brutal.

i must say, these are some pretty darn good videos.

It never ceases to amaze me how trgic it is that so many young life's were snuffed out on both sides and somehow it seems even worse when everyone knows it's pointless to continue fighting as the war was already lost but because of some zealots in power the unnecessary carnage continues. Rest in peace to all the brave young men and women from every country that died in this war. Lest we forget

Mark, I’m sure you already know this but you are the best channel on KZfaq. Your videos are so well done. WWII history has no shortage of facets to it, so I hope you will never stop making these videos.

I enjoy learning about history, mostly from watching the history channel with my father as a child. I wish he was still here because I know he would be glued to these videos instead of the history channel, just like me!

I subscribed to this channel when Felton only had about a few thousand subscribers. As I write this, Felton has 1.5 million. Congratulations Dr. Felton!

Mark Felton has a good narration voice. It keeps you intrigued to the subject.

5:55 the dude on the left looks like indy niedel from the KZfaq channel the great war and second world war lol. Everytime i see that photo i always see him.

The best channel on KZfaq for accurate HISTORY. Thank You Mr. Felton, you make history very interesting unlike my high school history teachers who put me in a Comma. THANK YOU SIR! Sharing with everyone I know

dear mr. Felton, i love yourt videos. but please, could you provide us with some bibliografical data to that short video clips you use to make your point.... for instance you said at around 2:45 that the "poisen dwarf" was the most visable person of the 3rd reich in the last weeks of ww2 in europe whilst showing him speak to a frenetic clapping crowd. when was this speech recordet? personaly i doubt that this was in the last days of the reich. for me it seems important to know when the clips where taken, so that your viewer can fully understand what happend at a given period of time.

Excellent work, as usual, my friend! Keep em' coming, Mark!

This entire channel is a tour de force of incredible research, impeccable production and taut intellectual rigor. Thank-you, sir, in every way possible.

I really want your intro music as my ringtone!

Even listening about war is so depressing 😭😭😭. Great work

VERY impressive work, Mr. Felton. Measured, concise and and historically accurate. And gratifyingly free of histrionics. Please continue.

I am Thirty Four. This is what used to be on History channel basically anytime of the day. This channel is a precious gem. You have sparked life back into us young American men. History Channel has abandoned us, and the Veterans of WWII are no longer as many as we knew as kids. Thank you for this channel Doctor.

There's one of these videos about Hans-Ulrich Rudel; it would be interesting to see one on "ace of aces" Erich Hartmann, particularly his postwar years in Soviet captivity and then returning to flying with the new West German Luftwaffe. An epic life.

Great channel!

As someone really interested in this period of history, I love your videos Mark.

I am so very grateful to you Mark Felton for being the scholarly entrepreneur and audacious historian who has accomplished so much in the furtherance of apparent objective history. You are obviously an exemplary person to have done what far too many have failed to do before. Your accuracy is absolutely stunning! Please do keep it up Mark!

Mark Felton is a wonderful and brilliantly thorough historian who brings this period to life. These are fascinating and very well produced videos. Thank you!

ThNk you Mark, I’ve learned so much from your videos. ♥️⭐️♥️⭐️♥️⭐️♥️

Very nicely made

What a great video. Anyone interested in this period of history will do no better than to watch this channel. Well done Mark and thank you.

Just woke up to Mark Felton. Great!

Bu belgeseli hazırlayanlara çok teşekkür ederim.

Thanks Mark! Thanks a lot.

always intriguing Mark..

As always Mark, very interesting 👍 love your channel 👍 you always seem to find footage that I've never seen before, so thnx🙏🙏 for that. 👍👍

I've had that intro music rolling through my head all day. Needed a fix, so here I am.

You are very good mate, bravo 👏👏👏

It’s a pleasure to watch your videos Mark👍

I have to say he's the one and only man that makes me feel like I'm watching an actual documentary on TV. I swear he has the voice for it. Thank you for your content.

Mark,thanks for rich information you presents.

Great report

Hi Mark, I'd love to see a video about the Battle of Bremen in 1945, I enjoy the forgotten stuff you shed light on. Keep up the great work!

It's always a pleasure to listen to the words of Mark. Very high grade of information without prejudice.

Much of the information in this video was new to me although I have read numerous books and seen lots of documentaries about these days.

Another very interesting video
