So the endless theories came to an end that the German leader of the Nazis did not die, but went to Antarctica to build the Fourth Reich. Adolf Hitler definitely died in Berlin in 1945 after taking cyanide and a bullet. This was reported by French researchers who received rare access to the fragments of the dictator's teeth, which were kept in Moscow.
“These teeth are authentic, no doubt about it. Our research proves that Hitler died in 1945,”Professor Philippe Charlier told AFP. “We can end all conspiracy theories about Hitler. He did not escape to Argentina in a submarine, did not hide in a hidden base in Antarctica or on the far side of the moon."
The study was published in the scientific journal European Journal of Internal Medicine.
Analysis of Hitler's bad teeth and numerous dentures showed white sandy deposits and no traces of meat fibers - the dictator was a vegetarian, Charlier says. In March and July 2017, the FSB and the State Archives of Russia enabled scientists to examine Hitler's bones for the first time since 1946. The French also managed to study a fragment of the skull left over from the Fuhrer, in which they found a hole on the left - probably left by a past bullet.
Samples from this fragment were not allowed to be taken.
However, the morphology of the fragment was "fully compatible" with radiographs of Hitler's skull, made a year before his death. Overall, the study confirmed the generally accepted story: Hitler died on April 30, 1945 in his bunker in Berlin with Eva Braun. However, now scientists do not know what exactly killed the Fuhrer: a bullet or an ampoule with cyanide. It could have been both. In addition, no traces of gunpowder were found in the mouth, which means that the revolver was directed not into the mouth, but rather into the neck or forehead.
The bluish deposits on his dentures may indicate a "chemical reaction between cyanide and metal in dentures," the scientists said.
