When Berlin fell in April-May of 1945 under the Russian onslaught, Adolph Hitler and his new bride Eva Braun, as the story went for years, committed double suicide- he by a gunshot to his head, and she by cyanide. The story continued that their bodies were carried outside of their bunker and set ablaze by their personal guards. For years the Russians kept the whereabouts of their corpses a secret, and conspiracy theories abounded. Some said they had escaped by plane or submarine to South America, Others said that Hitler's body double, not Hitler, was the body that had been burned. Author Robert Hutchinson with his new book The Death of Hitler, examines the evidence and delivers the true story of what happened to Hitler and Braun as well as the stories of the attempted assassinations of Hitler which came very close to ending his life and his atrocities, had it not been for what many call "the luck of the devil".
