Dr. Josef Mengele
Josef Mengele was a ruthless man who did not care for humanity. He had no mercy for the people he heartlessly abused. He was a very cruel and pitiless man. He did so many things that physically, mentally, and emotionally affected the lives of Jews. The most common thing that he did was testing on twin children. He often tested their minds or physical features. He was fascinated by twin children.
Josef Mengele grew up somewhat normal. He was the oldest of 3 sons. He had a mother and a father. His father was the owner of a farming equipment company. His mother stayed at home to care for the children. Although there was something about Josef’s mother that was never right. She would go to the farm equipment company and yell at …show more content…
He would general perform his experiments to the Jewish prisoners. But a large portion of his experiments was on twins and dwarfs. He performed over 1500 experiments on twins from 1943-1944. In total, he operated on 3000 twins, and only 200 of them survived. In fact, they started to call Josef the “Angel of Death”. In Auschwitz where he worked, he was the one who decided to gas the Jews upon arrival. Just a simple snap of the hand decide who would live and be tortured and who would die. One survivor of Auschwitz stated that he remembered seeing Mengele send a blockhouse of 750 women to that gas chamber all because they were infested with lice. He also ordered that the blockhouse needed to be torn down. He also sent an entire train full of Jews to be gassed all because a mother refused to separate from her daughter. Before Josef would operate on the twin he would do his best to keep them calm. He would give them clean clothes and lots of candy. He also told the children that he is a good guy and they can call him uncle. The twins were often driven to Josef’s lab in his personal car. He would usually do the surgeries without anesthesia. He would also perform blood transfusions from one twin to another, give them lethal germs to each twin, and execute sex changes. He sent all of his findings to his mentor Dr. Verschur. When he was sending over his findings it generally took about two truckloads to carry over his findings. We
