Hitler's Teeth Dismantle the Myth of Conspiracy Concerning His Death.
Berlin- Hitler's dental check confirmed the death of the Nazi leader and unraveled the conspiracy myths surrounding his whereabouts. Until now there are still who do not believe, Hitler died in Berlin.
The condition of German Nazi leader Adolf Hitler's teeth is very bad. This made it easier for the Soviet team to identify Hitler's charred corpse found in the rubble of its command center in Berlin, early May 1945.
A team of French pathologists was recently allowed to inspect the set of teeth stored in Moscow. This is the first time Russia has permitted an examination of the evidence, over 70 years after World War II ended. French team research results published last weekend in the European Journal of Internal Medicine.
"The original teeth (from Hitler) - there is no doubt," said pathologist Philippe Charlier told the French news agency AFP. "Our study proves that Hitler died in 1945." The set of teeth did not show any traces of the flesh, which proved that Hitler was indeed a vegetarian. The research team was also allowed to see Hitler's skull piece to confirm the way he committed suicide.
Dead suicide in Fhrerbunker.
These new finds may still not end the scattered stories to Indonesia, that Adolf Hitler escaped from Berlin and did not commit suicide in 1945.
"We can stop all conspiracy theories about Hitler," said Charlier. "He (Hitler) did not flee to Argentina on a submarine, he did not hide in a base in Antarctica or on the dark side of the moon." Hitler ended his life by suicide with his girlfriend Eva Braun at his underground command center called the Fhrerbunker in Berlin.
On April 30, 1945, Soviet troops had pushed up to 500 meters from Fhrerbunker. In a besieged situation and barely able to communicate with the remnants of his troops, Hitler realized that his dream of a new German kingdom was over.
In the afternoon, Hitler went into his private room with his girlfriend, Eva Braun. She then swallows the cyanide capsule and shoots herself. Aware that in Italy the citizens polluted the bodies of the former Benito Mussolini rulers whom they hated, Hitler left instructions to have his body and Eva Braun burned. The maids then took their bodies out of the bunker and burned them.
Discovered Soviet troops
The new Soviet army discovered the corpse on May 5, 1945 and identified it as Hitler's corpse. Soviet military experts compared the teeth of the corpse found with the description given by assistant dentist Kathe Heusermann. Identification is not difficult, because Hitler uses a unique dental protesa. Later, Hitler's personal dentist, Hugo Blaschke, confirmed the information to the Allies.
"His teeth are in bad shape, so there is a dentist accompanying him in the bunker," said Liubov Summ,* grandson of *Kathe Heusermann^ translator, Elena Rzhevskaya, to the Times newspaper from Israel.
According to Rzhevskaya, Kathe Heusermann was not a serious supporter of the Nazis, even hiding a Jewish dentist and a former employer at his home. Kathe Heusermann died at Dsseldorf in 1995.
