On these episode I want to talk to you about some incredible Polish Heroes I think you should know. I knew some of them but even I was surprised with what I found out.
These people are true heroes and they deserve a big spotlight to be put on them so the world can learn about the remarcable things they did.

Witold Pilecki, the Polish anti-nazi, anti-fascist and anti-communist WWII hero, who after the German occupation of Poland started to fight against another oppressor, the Soviets (Russians) and their communist puppet-government.

Pilecki's trial was supervised by Roman Romkowski, he was interrogated and tortured by Józef Różański, accused by Hersz Podlaski, and sentenced to death by Leo Hochberg and Rubin Szwajg among others.

Witold Pilecki as a Polish hero became the victim of a judicial murder, what made him a patriot martyr. Unfortunately, his name is still slandered and defamed by people with antipolish attitude or communist mentality.

@@alexx_9955 yyy... no nie wiem. Piszesz o człowieku, który m.in. sprowokował swoje aresztowanie w celu umieszczenia go w Auschwitz, gdzie organizował ruch oporu, ledwie tam przeżył, a mimo to kontynuował zadanie, pisał raporty o tym co się dzieje i przekazywał je na zewnątrz. Uciekł stamtąd gdy przekonał się, że decydenci na zachodzie nie mają zamiaru z tym nic zrobić. Po ucieczce dalej walczył, będąc wzorem żołnierza. Dodam, że nie było nikogo, kto chciałby podjąć się zadania w Auschwitz, on był jedyny. Jak dla mnie jest to największy bohater RP i wzór do naśladowania.

​@@wlomazur7779 prawie ze wszystkim co napisałeś się zgodzę ALE :) "Uciekł stamtąd gdy przekonał się, że decydenci na zachodzie nie mają zamiaru z tym nic zrobić." nie raz przesłuchałem raport Witolda w wersji pełnej i wynika z niego że uciekł z trochę innego powodu, wiedziano że jest tam ruch oporu i zaczęto bardzo dokładnie "przesłuchiwać" wszystkich którym udało się tam przeżyć wyjątkowo długo a 947 dni to jest bez wątpienia dużo, było wiele możliwości ucieczki dużo wcześniej i dużo wcześniej było wiadomo że niewiele sobie z tego robią na świecie, prawdopodobnie nikt nie zdawał sobie sprawy i nie wierzył że takie piekło jest możliwe na ziemi, a tak w ogóle to na początku zakazywał ucieczek ponieważ "strażnicy" uznali że będą odpowiedzialność zbiorową karać i wymyślili karę tzw. "stójkę" - fragment z raportu - "Pierwszy więzień, który zwiał z Oświęcimia przez pojedynczy wówczas płot z drutów, nie naładowanych jeszcze wtedy prądem elektrycznym, nazywał się - jakby na złość władcom lagru - właśnie Tadeusz Wiejowski. Władze się wściekły. Po ustaleniu na apelu braku jednego więźnia, za karę cały obóz przez 15 godzin trzymano na placu w postawie zasadniczej. Ma się rozumieć, nikt nie dał rady stać na baczność. Pod koniec stójki stan ludzi bez jedzenia, bez możliwości wyjścia do ubikacji był opłakany. Szeregi przebiegali esesmani i kapowie, bijąc kijami tych, co nie mogli stać. Niektórzy mdleli wprost ze zmęczenia. Na interwencję niemieckiego lekarza komendant lagru odpowiedział: "Niech zdychają. Jak połowa będzie zdychać - wtedy zwolnię!" Lekarz ten zaczął przechodzić szeregi i namawiał, żeby się kładli. Gdy ogromna masa ludzi leżała na ziemi, a kapowie nawet do bicia nie mieli ochoty, ogłoszono wreszcie koniec "stójki"." "Kiedyś na wieczornym apelu w dzień wyjątkowo zimny i dżdżysty, kiedy padał deszcz na przemian ze śniegiem, rozległa się przeraźliwa syrena - złowieszcza zapowiedź "stójki". Stwierdzono brak dwóch więźniów. Zarządzono karną "stójkę" do czasu odnalezienia zbiegów, którzy musieli ukryć się gdzieś na "Industriehof II". Kapów, psy i parę setek więźniów wysłano wtedy na poszukiwania, które trwały długo. Śnieg, deszcz, zmęczenie pracą, niedostateczne ubranie więźniów, wykańczały nas w tym dniu dotkliwie na stójce. Wreszcie gongiem ogłoszono znalezienie zbiegów. Do obozu wróciły już tylko bezwładne ciała tych nieszczęśliwców. Któryś z drabów, wściekły na przedłużenie dnia pracy, przebił od tyłu jednego z nich wąską, spiczastą deską na wylot przez nerki i żołądek, i tak omdlałego, z siną, wykrzywioną twarzą przyniosło czterech drabów do lagru. Tak, tym zbiegom ucieczka nie opłacała się i była aktem wielkiego egoizmu, gdyż stójka tysięcy kolegów na zimnie przyniosła w skutkach ponad setkę trupów. Zginęli wprost z zimna, utracili swe siły do życia. Innych zabrano do szpitala, gdzie przez noc zmarli." z czasem kary łagodniały i przestano karać zbiorowo wtedy pomagał zoorganizować ucieczkę wielu innym osobom sam zaś uznał że jego zadanie się nie skończyło i dopiero kiedy ssmani naprawde zaczeli deptać po piętach uznał że ryzyko jest zbyt wielkie i wręcz cudem uciekł, historia ucieczki jest tak nieprawdopodobna że każdy powinien sobie sam przeczytać lub przesłuchać raport Witolda Pileckiego tylko w wersji oryginalnej z komentarzem Witolda do tej całej sytuacji - żadne streszczenie nie odda tego co jest moim zdaniem najważniejsze w raporcie @ENGLISH there is some book about biggest hero of all time in my opinion - Witold Pilecki. "The Auschwitz Volunteer" - just use google and you should find it really easy even some audiobook on youtube and beware its not for child! @edit its really intresting to me why hollywood making movies about some fake heroes when they have real hero and truly heroic story and nothing. and thats intresting why u never hear about Witold Pilecki @Vigo's Dad when have many videos about Poles and poland. This is really big story everyone should known it.

O yes Czochralski is known in the world but not so many know that he was Polish. His method is used everywhere to obtain monocrystals of semiconductor materials. Unfortunately he has been persecuted in communist Poland and lost his position as a professor at Warsaw Polytechnic. He died of heart attack shortly after last incursion of the communist secret service at his home. Communists hated him so much that it was forbidden to mention to the students that Czochralski was of the Polish nationality. I tell you that from my own experience. I studied Electronics Technology at Warsaw Politechnic ( Warsaw Technical University). We asked our lecturer if Czochralski was Polish and we haven't got any positive response.

The saddest and the most taboo part of Pilecki's death is the fact that his persecutors were never punished for their court-murder on a war hero. Some of them lived in Poland and took huge retirement pensions until death. Some other escaped to Israel where they were protected from the Polish law after communism era, lived in wealth, and died in old age without ever being harassed or disturbed by anyone. Sad but true..

The lead prosecutor in Pilecki's case, Czesław Łapiński, while indeed never punished for his crimes, died of cancer at the age of 92 at the Maria Sklodowska-Curie National Research Institute of Oncology... located right next to Witold Pilecki's street. He never got what he deserved, but I hope he at least saw the sad irony of this.

When it comes to self-sacrifice, the unattainable ideal is a Polish Catholic priest, Maximilian Kolbe, who volunteered to get starved to death in place of a fellow prisoner at the Auschwitz death camp. German prison guards considered starving to death to be the ultimate atrocity and punishment and could not comprehend that anyone would volunteer to die this kind of death to save a fellow human being only because he had children to live for. After Maximilian Kolbe’s death, Germans stopped starving death camp prisoners to death. He deprived them of satisfaction from killing people this way. Dr. Janusz Korczak also sacrificed his life and glory to him for this. However, I think that it’s easier to die for innocent children than for a grown up ‘sinful’ man. It takes what very very few people have. I know that I don’t.

interesting list, as chemist I love the way you started. Maria was incredible, opened high education and research to women around the world. As a man, I cannot emphasise enough how much I admire her work ethics, breaking boundaries and remaining a woman, mother and becoming a living icon. Please never forget her daughters: Irene and her husband got Nobel price in chemistry too, and second daughter’s husband got Piece Nobel price. 5 Nobels!!! For me the most overlooked Polish scientists that changed planet earth and the way people lived and still live is pharmacists, engineer and inventor Ignacy Łukaszewicz. His impact is comparable with Alfred Nobel. Ignacy invented modern oil rafination, kerosene and kerosene lamp. Still today kerosene lamps are used by millions of people around the world where electricity is a challenge. He lit the night for the globe, allowing better and safer illumination than candles.

Marie Skłodowska Curie is still the *only* person to win Nobel Prize in two different *science* fields (that is not science/peace combo, as Pauling, or two times the same science, as Bardeen and Sanger). Curie family is also the only family to get 4 Nobel Prizes over 2 generations: * Physics (Marie & Peter, this is counted as 2 for the family), Chemistry (Marie) * Chemistry (Irene & Frederic Joliot - daughter with husband, this for whatever reason is counted as one for family) Additionally, there is an "honorary" 5th Nobel, a Peace for Henry Richardson Labouisse, privately a husband of Eve, second daughter of Marie. Eve jokingly said she is a disgrace to the family - her parents won Nobel, her sister did, her husband did - only she didn't.

Nie znano jeszcze skutków promieniowanie rentgenowskiego a Skłodowska robiła to w warunkach wojennych bez osłon i zabezpieczeń, to ją zabiło.

responding to your request to suggest heroes for the next episode. i think i found some heroes. I split it into military commander political leader military man scientist spiritual Stanisław Maczek -General of the armored brigade, it was because of him that the Germans called us Poles black devils Roman Dmowski- quite opaque figure, often considered a fascist, but his contribution to the rebirth of Poland after World War I should be noted. He is considered one of the founding fathers of Poland Władysław Raginis -He died in the battle of Wizna. Thanks to his sacrifice, the Warsaw army could defend itself longer. He is an example of the honor of a soldier Jan Józef Ignacy Łukasiewicz- creator of the kerosene lamp. the first oil tycoon in Poland. Probably thanks to him he got rich Rockefeller Maksymilian Maria Kolbe -he voluntarily chose to starve to death in exchange for another prisoner of the German Auschwitz extermination camp

Great video. Another heroes that come to my mind: 1. Witold Pilecki - volunteer to Auschwitz, incredible man, amazing story. As a member of Polish Underground Army AK, he volunteered to Auschwitz, gathered the informations and managed to escape, giving his reports to the outside world about cruelty beyond anyone's imagination. 2. Jan III Sobieski - polish noble that was elected for king, the one that led hussars defending Viena in 1863. His whole life was amazing and very interesting. 3. Stanisława Leszczyńska - midwife in Auschwitz, amazing woman. There is a book "Położna w Auschwitz" - her memoir. It's mindblowing. This lady is considered "blessed" by catholic church today. You have to read the book. I've heard about movie about her but I haven't watch it yet. 4. Ferdynand Ossendowski and his books. There's more of course but I find theese particular people exceptionaly interesting.

Wondering: could you talk some day about Polish history from officially 966 through 16th-17th century superpower lost for 123 years until 1918 why? because of what we would today call lobbying efforts of the then oligarchs, foreign lobbying now, etc. etc.

I think that in Poland's case two groups of heroes should be considered separately - wartime and peacetime personalities. Poland's officially promoted history in 95% is composed of wars and uprisings (WW2 absolutely dominating), plus the communist period. The nation's peaceful contribution to the world's development in various areas is, yes, Maria Skłodowska-Curie, and - that's right - Fryderyk Chopin. And... oops. Who else? Here the problem begins. Why should the world know about other Polish peacetime champions, if lots of Poles don't know about them either? Even about those whose names can be found on maps of several countries around the globe? Another category should be attributed to people who do not represent Poland officially, but they were born in this country and their links with the fatherland are undeniable. Anyone outside Poland knows the real name of Joseph Conrad? Etc. ...

Jan Szczepanik, who's been called Polish Edison at his time, he designed telectroscope - a device for remote transmission of a moving color image with sound, the progenitor of today's television. And many, many more quiet contributors of todays goods, like Stanislaw Lem, Polish S/F writer.

Few Poles know about Paweł Edmund Strzelecki, Ignacy Domeyko, Jan Czerski, Stefan Szolc-Rogoziński, Edward Jan Habich, Ernest Malinowski and others, the Poles who are so famous in various countries on several continents, but not in their homeland. To be famous in Poland, you need to be a wartime hero or an anti-communist fighter. Peacetime achievements are a less valuable category in this country.

U mentioned 1917 and 1945 and borders, ask yourself why this borders was attacked and by who? And same answer. Russia and Germany, same history. On september 39 Germany first and Soviets as second invaded Poland, murdered millions of citizens and houndred tousands people were send to slavery labor.

You apperently forgot to mention that Maria Skłodowska organized first movable x-ray rooms at the frontlines of The Great War. They were called „je les Petites Curie”. Even more, she donated her gold Noble medal for the sake of the war expenditures. She was a real hero to be compared with nobody else. Please, do not say Maria Curie. In Poland she is known and mentioned as Maria Skłodowska. If you ask a Pole who Marie Curie was, he/she is likely to answer I don’t know
