Adolf Hitler really did have only one ball, according to new medical report

Source: The Telegraph, 18 Dec 2015

Long-lost medical documents from Hitler's examination by a prison doctor when he was jailed after the failed Munich beer hall putsch reveal he had an undescended testicle, confirming the old song

It appears the notorious Second World War song may have been right all along. New evidence has emerged that Adolf Hitler may have suffered from an undescended testicle.

Ever since British soldiers started singing it to the tune of Colonel Bogey, debate has raged over whether there is any truth to the assertion that Hitler was missing a vital appendage.

Now a German historian claims to have discovered incontrovertible proof, in the form of medical records.

In 1923, Hitler was examined by a prison doctor after his arrest following the failure of his first attempt to seize power in the Munich Beer Hall Putsch.

Steve Buscemi singing that mentioned World War II song, includes a 2nd verse I cannot quite make out.


Hitler has only got one ball,
Göring has two but very small,
Himmler has something sim'lar,
But poor old Goebbels has no balls at all.

When I was 15 I was hospitalized because of appendicitis. It was a small town hosiptal. The same 4- bed hospital room had a six year old boy who had surgery to descend his testicles.

My mother had to explain to me what that meant. I was a bit horrified as she explained it to me. (No 15 year old boy should have that discussion with his mother.) It was bad enough that a nurse came in to shave my pubic area before my surgery.

This has absolutely zilch to do with how horrible a person he turned out to be.

Most of his vicious anti-Semitism comes from none other than Henry Ford.
