It is said that propaganda was spread about Hitler’s death. His death was shrouded in considerable mystery. In 1945, the BBC suddenly announced that Hitler was no longer alive. People around the world expressed relief after this news spread.
At the end of World War II, Soviet troops began to penetrate deep into Germany. However, as Hitler’s ministers and senior military officers said, there was nothing to despair about. After the siege of Berlin, Hitler was in more danger.
After the assassination of Mussolini, Hitler realized his inevitable fate. In the last moments before his death, he had a last meeting with important people before entering his house. Gunshots were heard from inside his room. After entering, it was found that his whole body was covered in blood.
After he died, the German soldiers burned his body. Later investigations confirmed about his teeth and skull after DNA testing. Then conspiracy theories spread about Hitler’s death. One such theory is that Hitler went to Argentina by a submarine after Germany’s defeat. Another theory says that he hid himself in Antarctica.
The cause of Hitler’s death on the radio in 1945 was not clearly stated. It was also rumoured that he had died fighting. Perhaps the Nazi forces burned their leader’s body to cover up their weakness.
Later studies showed that Hitler killed himself by poisoning. However, evidence of death by gunshot was found in his skull. It is believed that he drank poison and then shot himself. Studies also show that his teeth may have turned blue due to ingesting a cyanide poison.
