Описание: Did you know that Adolf Hitler survived more than 40 assassination attempts? From hidden briefcase bombs to sniper plots, many tried to stop the dictator, but none succeeded.

​In this video, we dive into the narrow escapes that kept one of history’s darkest figures alive until the very end of the war.
