FFS get your facts straight.

Hitler shot himself, Eva took cyanide.
If he had taken cyanide he wouldn't stand a chance in hell in shooting Eva let alone himself.

I think Eva only took the cyanide. Hitler chomped a cyanide vial and shot himself simultaneously. Just to make sure.

Yep, it's his double and he isn't dead either, I believe.

What’s the whole story behind this picture? Why’s there only 1 and at a crappy angle. If they had really found Hitler’s corpse wouldn’t they want to parade him around? Not sure if this picture is real

Hitler died in the 70s in Argentina

That pic is of Gustav Weler. He was used as Hitler's body double for years during Hitler's reign of power.

I don't totally accept that but it could be true.And if so what about the remains of Eve Braum and his dog. He has his German Shepard named Blondie shot too. I'm guessing their remains were not recognizable from the many other dead and burned bodies every where in Berlin at the time and tossed into a mass grave of unknown dead.

I had always heard that Hitler had a suicide capsule tested on Blondie who dropped dead instantly from the cyanide.

Hitler was understandably concerned that traitors within his ranks might have given him something that may not kill him. And he wanted a sure death method.

Supposedly, the preferred method was to put a pistol to your head, bite down on the cyanide capsule and then immediately pull the pistol's trigger.

Hitler mightily feared falling into Russian hands...dead or alive.

Thus the garden fire pit incineration after death.

He would have preferred to have his SS remove any and all traces of his mortal remains.

I read a post not to long ago about the family that helped Hitler escape. He was apparently on his death bed and had letters from Adolf himself and it stated he was still alive and hiding in Guam or Cuba or something. Don't quote me on the realness of it but there was more to the story than just that.. it made sense
