Did Adolf Hitler survive WWII and successfully escape to South America? HISTORY TV18 investigates the theory in its new series ‘Hunting Hitler’
This 8 part series premieres on 24th January, all day on HISTORY TV18’s Sunday Binge
In 2014, the FBI declassified over hundreds of confidential documents suggesting the possibility that Adolf Hitler may have survived and fled to South America after the fall of Nazi Germany as opposed to news of him having committed suicide. The new investigative series, ‘Hunting Hitler’ follows a team of prominent investigators as they reopen the world’s most famous cold case in a definitive search to discover if one of history’s most notorious war criminals, Adolf Hitler, actually survived World War II or not?
Armed with the most cutting edge technology and declassified worldwide intelligence providing a wealth of new clues, the series reopens this world famous cold case in hopes of solving the mystery surrounding the demise of Adolf Hitler. The series features world renowned investigators, CIA veteran Bob Baer and war crime investigator Dr. John Cencich as they focus on the tried and tested tenants for solving a fraudulent death case: follow the money, where was the subject last seen, eyewitness reports, make contact with known associates, and forensics.
Is it conceivable that the world’s most wanted man pulled off history’s greatest disappearing act in hopes of possibly one day reclaiming the Nazi dream? The answer to this question is what the investigators chase to find out throughout the series. From uncovering a mysterious Nazi lair deep in the Argentinian jungle to mysterious plane wreckage in a Columbian marsh, and diving for evidence of a missing U-Boat that could have shuttled Hitler out of Europe as Germany collapsed, the team will stop at nothing to uncover the truth.
‘Hunting Hitler’ premieres on HISTORY TV18 with back-to-back episodes on 24th January, 12 noon onwards and continues every Saturday at 8pm from 30th January
