Adolf Hitler was one of the most evil men in the
history of the world. He singlehandedly engineered an evil plot to attempt to
eradicate the Jewish people from the face of the earth and spent a lot of years
spreading his message of hate and death. He ruled Germany for thirteen years
and was the founder and leader of the Nazi party. Ironically, it is believed that Hitler’s
grandmother was Jewish. He succeeded in killing over 17 million people, an
estimated 6 million of which were Jewish.
Hitler had a serious sweet tooth and
was known to consume upwards of two pounds of chocolate every day. He was even
known to add sugar to red wine before drinking it and as many as five teaspoons
of sugar to his tea.

In his youth, Hitler had dreams of becoming
an artist. He tried to pursue an education in art and applied to the Academy of
Fine Arts in Vienna but was rejected twice in 1907 and again in 1908 because
they stated that he was “unfit for painting”. He chose to remain in Vienna and
continued painting, selling those paintings to art dealers (most of whom were
Jewish) to supplement his income. The local atmosphere in Vienna at the time
was anti-Semitism and it was common to hear people blaming Jewish people for
anything and everything.

Hitler was arrested
on November 11, 1923 following some events which occurred at the Beer Hall
Putsch which lead to a treason trial. He was sentenced to five years at Landsberg Prison but ended up receiving special
treatment from staff at the prison. They allowed him visitations from wealthy
benefactors and members of his political party as well as mail deliveries. He
received a pardon from the Bavarian Supreme Court and was subsequently released
from prison on December 20, 1924.

Since he suffered with insomnia,
Hitler would work most of the night and go to be between 4 and 5 a.m., arising
out of bed around 11 a.m. He was said to be afraid of the dark and would always
have company to play music for him or watch movies together with him and talk
to him until sunrise. He would always have a maid check his bed before he went
to sleep.

Hitler was deadly afraid of blades in
the hands of other people. He would never allow a barber to shave him with a
blade, instead choosing to take care of this himself. He would scream during
haircuts and was paranoid that a barber would kill him during the process.

The concept of the blow-up doll was
created by Hitler to prevent his troops from contracting syphilis from
encounters with prostitutes. This invention was a top secret mission during the
war. The dollars were small enough to fit into a soldier’s backpack and
transported with them to provide them with comfort. The factories that created
these dolls were destroyed during the bombing of Dresden during World War II.

A medic in the German army stated
that he saved Hitler’s life in 1916 at the battle of Somme. He said that Hitler
had received an injury to his abdomen and lost a testicle on the battlefield.
He earned the nickname “screamer” after that battle because he screamed and
cried after he received that injury.

It was a well-known fact that Hitler
had an aversion to meat which purportedly arose from him witnessing an autopsy.
He was a vegetarian for the majority of his adult life and had his cooks under
strict orders to never add any type of meat products to his meals. He also had
plans in the works to cut back on the consumption of meat by the German public
through post-war policies which he wanted to introduce.
#2
Hitler did not drink alcohol or smoke
cigarettes. He did not like anyone smoking in his presence. If a person had an
appointment with him, they were advised to not smoke for several hours before
the scheduled appointment and to ensure that they clothing or uniform did not
smell of tobacco. Hitler hated the vile stench of tobacco so much he tried to
ban smoking. He smoked for 20 years himself before finding out it was unhealthy
and then undertook serious efforts to remove it from society.

Hitler created the
autobahns which is a network of highways that are still in use today. He also
undertook a project where he came up with the idea for a car for the people – a
“Volks Wagen” .
Although his idea launched the Volkswagen company, the actual design was
created by Josef Ganz, a Jewish Engineer.
