I decided I would have to look into this a bit more -- and I was quite surprised by what I found.

My grandpa was a nazi/fascist supporter from Brenner ( i believe its somewhere in the austrian/italian border nowdays) - As far as my family history goes, he escaped europe after WW2, went to Argentina, and then when rumours that they were looking for nazis for war crimes, he moved to Costa Rica - i never knew him but it's crazy how far those guys travel to escape from their past - Anyway ... Hi from Costa Rica π π€

In 2010, I went to high school with a boy whose grandfather was a Nazi. I'm not exactly sure what he did but it was never a secret and everyone in town knew it. I live in a little town in rural Argentina so everyone one knows each other. They used to call him "El Aleman" (The German). My grandparents are Polish and knew this nazi guy very well and strangely enough, they had a good relationship!

I enjoyed your easygoing pace, your depth of knowledge and your calm voice. A very interesting topic, as well!

As a german i have to say its really astounding how "german" the manerisms and even the way she emphasizes her sentences are! its crazy. she reminds me of the old lady we have as a neighbor

The casual way this guy drops knowledge and interacts with people is just different. He literally just popped up in a former nazi hub, used conspiracy books at a local shop as reference, and went straight to the nazis daughter in law. Then found a few strangers to form a group to go visit a former nazi bunker. And all of that in Spanish, his second language. This guy is a humble (social) genius

Woah bro, you really did this!!!!! Awesome man, love it keep it up

When I lived in Argentina in the early 1980s, I met a handful of unrepentant Nazis. I spoke with them at length, multiple times over dinner and/or Mate'. I was fascinated by their life experience and perspective. Generally speaking, the people I spoke with were melancholy about how Europe was negatively affected by Germany's loss and the ascendancy of Bolshevism. They all made a good life in Argentina. Thank you for the video. It brought back so many memories.

I love how locating an old Nazi bunker became a main quest for the people you met along the way. Great video!
-

I used to work at the computer lab in college in Buenos Aires, the animation teacher was supervisor there and I got to know him a little in a few years, he came from a german family, he told me ever since he was little, he remembered a stand filled with nazi plates, cups, silverware, he wasnt allowed to touch or ask about it at the time, but soon he figured it out.
-
The lady and her son were actually really helpful and honest.
-
That was a terrific video. Thank you!
-
I liked this video! I'm argentinian, i live on the coast of Buenos Aires and i remember that when I was younger my mother had a co-worker who was the grandson of Nazis, here there is a lot of countryside and several Germans settled in ranches very far from the towns.
-
I love how he just gets a whole party to go find the bunker this is amazing.
-
This dude was so respectful of that woman, he didnβt push her and let her share what she wanted to share. Great video.
