Hitler

With shells crashing around his bunker and planes droning overhead, Adolf Hitler faced the reality of defeat and took his life. But then his body disappeared mysteriously. Only later did we learn that Soviet leader Joseph Stalin concealed his body from the West for decades. The FBI spent years tracking false leads and sightings of Hitler. Only in the 1990s did Russia open its archives to reveal a handful of Hitler�s teeth and fractured skull pieces. Join the National Geographic as Hunt for Hitler uses forensic science and insight from interviews with leading historians and eyewitnesses to explore what happened to Hitler and the reasons behind the Soviet�s deception.
