50+ Rarely Seen Pictures Of Adolf Hitler That May Surprise You

Adolf Hitler was an Austrian-born German politician and leader of the Nazi Party. He remained in power for over 12 years. He was the fourth of six children born to Alois Hitler and his third wife, Klara Pölzl. Three of Hitler’s siblings died in infancy. His mother was Catholic, while his father was an anticlerical. According to reports, when the Great War broke out, Hitler was voluntarily enlisted in the Bavarian Army, which was certainly an administrative error. He served as a military courier on the Western Front in France and Belgium. Hitler was wounded by a shell when serving as a courier; he spent almost two months in hospital. On 15 October 1918, he was temporarily blinded in a mustard gas attack and was hospitalized. His wartime experience reinforced his German patriotism, and he was shocked by Germany’s capitulation in November 1918. The defeat of Germany shaped his ideology, and after the war ended, he started his journey. Hitler dedicated the majority of his domestic life to his political mission and nation. He also met his love, Eva Braun in 1929, and married her 16 years later. Hitler was a non-smoker for most of his adult life. He became addicted to smoking when he was young, but eventually, he quit. Hitler publicly avoided alcohol; he occasionally drank in private. He also encouraged his close associates to quit smoking and drinking by offering a gold watch to anyone able to break the habit. He also started consuming various drugs, including cocaine, amphetamine, and potassium bromide, after 1940, which badly affected his behavior and decision-making. During wartime, his personal physician prescribed 90 different medications for several diseases. Hitler suffered from ruptured eardrums resulting from a bomb attack that was intended to assassinate him, and 200 wood splinters had to be removed from his legs. There were at least 42 assassination plots attempted against Hitter. The death of Adolf Hitler is still a mystery. On 30 April 1945, he killed himself by gunshot in his Führerbunker in Berlin. However, Soviet politician and leader Joseph Stalin claimed that he was alive after WWII. Marshal Georgy Zhukov later announced that Hitler’s body had not been found and that he could have flown away at the last moment. However, British intelligence officials investigated the guard of Führerbunker, and he witnessed the bodies of Adolf and his new wife, Eva, on fire two meters from the bunker’s emergency exit. He also drew a map showing where their bodies were buried. Here’s a series of rarely seen pictures of Adolf hitter that show some unseen moments from his life, from his birth to his death.
