Why Hitler's Nephew Was His Worst Enemy

Hitler had plenty of enemies who would have loved to take a chance at ending his life, but he never expected one of his own family members to turn against him! Check out today's insane true story that takes a different look at Hitler during World War 2, and his nephew, who wanted nothing more than to put an end to Hitler once and for all.

Being the nephew of the leader that’s running the army you’re fighting makes you the main character automatically

Can you imagine how different the world would be if people had simply purchased his paintings?

It’s so sad that you’d feel pressured to end your family line just because you were related to a horrible dictator. It wasn’t the fault of the boys.

He’s the protagonist. When your evil uncle is the main villain you are automatically the protagonist. Them’s the rules :P

It was pretty intense when Willy’s kids

agreed to not have kids in order to end the family line

The kids not marrying or having children is so heroic, I can’t imagine living life without a partner like that.

I've always liked infographics show but in my 37 years on this planet I've never once heard this story.
My respect runs deeper than any now for this channel.

I've learned so many weird and disturbing facts about this man I almost forgot what he was known for

"Never trust your family" is a thing, but this takes it to a high. Remember that betrayal is normal during war, regardless of anything else that is happening

I find it hard to believe that removing buildings from maps worked really well but they managed to drop a bomb on their relatives house so accurately.

It's remarkable but also a bit sad that 4 sons decided to never marry or have kids so that Hitler's bloodline ends there. Also, a bit heroic.

[CesarACastillo]

I feel extremely chastised right now. When I first saw this video's thumbnail I immediately thought that Adolf had an actual opponent for the title of worst human in world history. I never even considered that William may in fact be a decent person who hated his uncle and would happily spit on his grave.

I'm reminded of a passage from Martin Luther King Jr.'s speech I Have a Dream: "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."

It may not match up perfectly but this man's dream still applies to William's character. He was a truly decent man and chose to appose his uncle rather than join him. I feel like I've done the absolute worst thing possible to a man who was a true American Patriot and ask for forgiveness for unintentionally spitting on his memory.

Bro this guy legit switched teams just to fight his uncle

[ZeoViolet]

You see, those four boys were not the only family descendants of high-ranking former Nazis to decide "the bloodline ends with us". And that's sad. They weren't responsible for their family's shame or their great-uncle's actions. The changing of their names and disappearing into the background of US life would have been sufficient if they were that upset about it. They should not have felt that they were tainted or were bound to be as evil as their uncle if they had continued to have a family of their own.
