Discovery Channel - Solving History with Olly Steeds

Season 1

Episode 6: Hitler's Mummies

Olly Steeds journeys into the nightmare of Nazi propaganda and explores its chilling legacy today. His quest takes him to the Canary Islands off the coast of Africa in search of mythical blond-haired mummies and to a secret crypt the Nazis thought was the center of the world. In the marshes of northern Europe, he examines ancient bog bodies that the Nazis bizarrely used to justify their policies. Olly's quest becomes personal when he confronts a modern-day believer of the SS mission. Finally, Olly uses his own DNA to test Hitler's theories of racial superiority.
