Dr Mengele
Dr Mengele was a sick and twisted soul that used humans as his test subjects for his experiments during World War II. Also referred to as the “Angel of Death” Dr Mengele took Jews out of the concentration camps and used them as his “patients”. These “patients” were put into pressure chambers, tested with drugs, castrated, frozen to death, and exposed to a various number of other traumas. Mengele performed both physical and psychological experiments, the transfusion of blood from one twin to another was often preformed, and he is reported to have bled some to death this way. The Dr would draw a line on the wall of the children’s block between 150 and 156 centimeters from the floor. He would then send those whose heads could not reach the line to the gas chambers. 1.2 million Jewish children, tens of thousands of gypsy children and thousands of handicapped children were murdered under Nazi rule in Germany. Dr Mengele died while swimming, he had a massive stroke and drowned.

It really suprised me that he did transfusions on twins. I don't really quite understand why though...It was very fact filled and short. That's actually nice because I didn't have to read on forever and you didn't have unecessary details. Nice job. I liked it.
