The program provides details about Hitler's sexual development, an analysis of his ancestry, and doubts about his psychological state. This piece of fabric has now been analyzed in depth to sequence the DNA of the Nazi dictator (1889-1945). According to DNA analysis revealed in a Channel 4 documentary, German dictator Adolf Hitler suffered from Kallmann syndrome, a genetic disorder that hinders normal puberty and the development of sexual organs. At another point, King emphasizes that Hitler did not have Jewish ancestry, as had been conjectured some time ago. Hitler's DNA was studied from a bloodstained piece of fabric from the sofa where the Nazi dictator committed suicide, according to the program, titled 'Hitler's DNA.' The finding of Kallmann syndrome coincides with the medical records from Landsberg prison, where Hitler was imprisoned in 1923, discovered by German researchers in 2010. These records indicate that a doctor certified that the Nazi leader had right-sided cryptorchidism, or an incomplete descent of one of the testicles. 'I thought about it a lot, but it will happen at some point and we wanted to ensure it was done in an extremely methodical and rigorous way,' said King, who made it clear that 'genetics does not in any way justify what he did.' 'If he had seen his own genetic results, he would almost certainly have condemned himself to the gas chambers,' King asserts in the documentary. It was in May 1945 when Allied soldiers went through Hitler's bunker in Berlin and one of them decided to take home a piece of fabric from that sofa where he had committed suicide. King decided to participate in the analysis after several laboratories refused to collaborate, considering that historical DNA is currently being analyzed, from the time of the Romans. According to the program, which will be aired this Saturday although some details were advanced during the week, the research was led by geneticist Turi King, a renowned expert who in 2012 identified the remains of King Richard III (English monarch from 1483 to 1485). According to experts, up to 10% of people with Kallmann syndrome also have a micropenis, and the most frequent symptoms are low or fluctuating testosterone levels.
Hitler's DNA Analysis Reveals Genetic Disorder
A British Channel 4 documentary presented the results of an analysis of Adolf Hitler's DNA. The research, based on a sample of fabric from a bloodstained sofa, revealed that the Nazi dictator had Kallmann syndrome, a genetic disorder affecting puberty. The theory of Hitler's Jewish ancestry was also debunked.
