There seems to be a growing dearth of 'insight' stories into Adolf Hitler on the Mail, mostly through new research which gives him a more personal, humane side (lovely, isn't he?). Find new ones here, because today is the revelation that:

Hitler had shocking table manners, gorged on cake and suffered flatulence, reveals never-before-seen profile

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... ofile.html


Call me old fashioned, but I'd personal prefer to tut-tut at the fact he was the commander in chief of mass genocide and dictatorship rather than the fact that he had a tendency to trump a few out whilst tucking in to his dinner.

Flatulence? That's put me right off him.

It's an anagram of 'word gathering'. Cryptic, eh.

Or, as you could have the headline as, "Hitler was once a baby".

Today's Hitler story:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1152662/Why-Hitler-told-Luftwaffe-Blackpool-spared.html

Quote:
Blackpool escaped being blitzed during the Second World War because Hitler wanted to use the resort as his personal playground.
The Fuhrer planned to watch his triumphant troops goosestepping down the seafront's Golden Mile before unfurling the swastika flag on top of Blackpool Tower.

The Mail almost seemed disappointed that we won the war and the very fact this spectacle never happened.

Still, I'm sure Adolf would've loved a few goes on die Pepsimaxgroßeein Achterbahn..

I admit I had to check the link to see for myself after reading that. Gobsmacking. I now have a mental image of ranks of stormtroopers goose-stepping along the Royal Mile each munching a bag of whelks and with "Kiss Me Schnell" written on their helmets (oo-err) as Adolf himself looks on, happily munching a giant candy floss.

Amazonian/Abernathy: Thanks for making me snort coffee through my nose. It was so worth it.
