MysteryQuest Evidence Raises Doubt Hitler Died In Bunker

MysteryQuest, the History Channel's replacement for UFO Hunters, took the challenge of finding clues of Adolf Hitler’s death. There has been speculation that he escaped to South America, notably Argentina. Witnesses have said they had seen him around other parts of Germany. Regardless of the stories, there is no tangible evidence of a corpse belonging to Adolph Hitler.

Hitler was known to have used a body double, especially after the attempt on his life in the Valkyrie conspiracy. What the Soviets found when they arrived in Berlin was a corpse of a man looking like Hitler, but in all accounts it was his body double. As well, the man was apparently two inches shorter than Adolph Hitler.

In the Russian archive, there is a divan with blood stains and a piece of human skull with a bullet hole in it. MysteryQuest sent an American archeologist to Russia to obtain evidence from these items and bring it back to the United States for DNA testing.

Back in Germany, a team of experts was reconstructing the bunker using computers technology, attempting to figure out if eyewitness accounts were plausible. The underground bunkers had large generators that might have been loud enough to drown out a gun shot. What they discovered was an original working generator, allowing them to hear the noise intensity during the time Hitler apparently committed suicide.

The MysteryQuest investigators uncovered new evidence that puts in question if Hitler died in the bunker. Most notable, the DNA recovered from the skull with a bullet hole archived by the Russians was that of a female between the age of 20-40.

The questions left are: Did Hitler survive the war? If he did survive, how did he escape and where did he go?
