During the Second World War the Nazi party killed millions of people, especially Jewish people in the concentration camps like Auschwitz. Because of the Nazi thought that Jews were the worst thing that Germany could have, these people were killed and tortured till death even if they were healthy, adults, girls or boys they were destined to death. Even many of these people died from experiments such as the ones that the Angel of Death Dr. Josef Mengele practiced at one side of the camp near to Auschwitz. In the middle of this holocaust, the Angel of Death took power and he concentrated on children, especially twins, he held the power given by the Nazi party …show more content…
Once he performed his surgeries with dwarfs, midgets, hunchbacks along with other birth defects, his leaning was: the twins; they became part of his research. Twins were “privileged” and received better treatment; people considered them privileged because they were allowed to keep their own clothes not as the ones that had to use stripped clothes, but there was an evil intention behind this privileges that was to keep them healthy for his experiments and the cruelty that the group selected by Josef Mengele suffered was not less painful than the macabre practices conducted to people in Auschwitz.
Mengele 's experiments were performed not only physically but also psychologically; his surgeries included the extraction of organs like the limbs without any anesthesia, he considered to experiment changing the sex of the twins and also these practices included incestuous impregnation, apart from the fact that they were frozen to death and once the experiment was over you know you 'll be sent to the gas chamber while twins were innocently on the way they felt privileged to be inside a car with the "Uncle Mengele" or "Uncle Pepi" but that was the way to …show more content…
