He's the infamous dictator who oversaw the deaths of 12 million civilians, survived 42
-
assassination attempts and started the Second World War - let's learn something unusualy
-
about Adolf Hitler.
-
In 1877 Adolf's father changed his surname from Schicklgruber to Hitler. The future fuehrer
-
never knew the identity of his grandfather, and rumours circulated for years that he was
-
Jewish.
-
Hitler beleved men should remain celibate until they were 25. As a teenager he wrote
-
crude love poems to a Jewish girl but was too shy to give them to her.
-
Hitler's oral health was so bad he needed 8 root canals. The sugar-loving tyrant suffered
-
permanent bad breath, gum disease and a fear of dentists.
-
Hitler took cocaine twice a day 'to clear his sinuses'. He also had uncontrollable flatulence
-
and took a daily dose of 28 drugs, including extracts of bull testicle to aid his libido.
-
It may actually be true that Hitler only had one testicle. Military records, the official
-
Soviet autopsy and the deathbed testimony of a German nurse all suggest he lost his
-
left scrotum during the First World War.
