Medical Experiments of the Holocaust By: Donovan Cooper
The Experiments • • • Freezing / Hypothermia Genetics Infectious Diseases Interrogation and Torture Killing / Genocide High Altitude Pharmacological Sterilization Surgery Traumatic Injuries
Experiments on Twins The twins were first examined from head to toe, measurements were taken every inch of the body. The twins were allowed to keep their hair for only the first several days. Then after all living data was collected they would kill them by injecting the twins with chloroform straight to the heart; they made sure they died at the same time. Then they would send the organs to be researched.
Points About the Twin Experiments • • Two Hungarian Twins 18 Years old X-Rayed Hot water vat Photographed Samples were taken Then were killed
Sun Lamp Experiment • Victims were placed under a lamp which was really hot and burned their skin very badly. • One victim was repeatedly cooled to unconsciousness then brought back to life by the lamps until he was sweating. • He died after several testing sessions.
Genetic Goals Blonde hair, blue eyed, super men were to be the only race, every other race did not meet the requirements and were cleaned from society through genocide.
Genetics Experiments • • First to refine the master race Second to determine the cause of defects Dr. Mengele—Angel of Death Would select twins, dwarfs, and physical specimens were selected for the experimental block
