Hi, I am BEGAFILM and I have tons of new & unpublished footage which will be released on YouTube

Hello WWII forum,

I (m25, german) have recently gained access to many old documentaries, films, interviews and film rolls related to WW2. Most of the stuff has never been published as it comes out of my fathers private archive and is still saved on analogue hardware. It containes many different formats, as HI8, DV, MiniDV, VHS, SVHS, 16mm, DigiBETA and more and was built 25 to 45 years ago. It contains more than 1000 hours of material in german language.

I have decided to digitize, re-edit and publish everything on YouTube because the material is really stunning and everybody should be able to see it.

My german channel is growing pretty good and so I have decided to translate everything we have to english and open up a second channel so that more people can watch our material around the globe.

Heres some of the first videos on the english channel:

THE LAST DAYS IN ADOLF HITLERS BUNKER - INTERVIEW WITH HITLERS BODYGUARD ROCHUS MISCH



In this interview, Rochus Misch talks about his last days as a telephone operator in the Führer's bunker and about Hitler's and Eva Braun's suicide. This interview was made in the mid-1990s and is one of the first that Rochus Misch gave. As a direct contemporary witness, he remembers the last days in the Führer bunker in Berlin and the fall of the Third Reich. On September 24, 1939, Misch was seriously wounded in the arm and by a bullet through the lung during the Polish campaign in the battles for Modlin Fortress. After his convalescence and on the recommendation of his company commander Wilhelm Mohnke (Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler), Hitler's chief adjutant at the time assigned Misch to the Führerbegleitkommando. From 1940 to 1945, he was mainly active in Berlin (New Reich Chancellery), as well as in Berchtesgaden am Obersalzberg and in the Führer's headquarters. After Hitler's cremation, Misch was one of the last to leave the Fuehrer Bunker in the early morning of May 1, 1945, after Goebbels had relieved him of his function as a telephone operator.





THE 101st AIRBORNE DIVISION OCCUPIES ADOLF HITLERS LEGENDARY ALPINE FORTRESS



Since May 5th 1945 US war correspondents of the 101st Airborne Division filmed the invasion of Berchtesgaden and the Obersalzberg area including the Eagles Nest also called Adolf Hitlers Alpine Fortress. They documented the last major conquest of the US-Army in order to liberate Europe. Only few sections of this footage has been published since, everything else remained untouched in the National Archives in Washington, until they were discovered in the mid 80s by BEGAFILM & Videoproduction. This is the only known documentary containing this footage.




HISTORY OF HITLERS EAGLES NEST - Documentary about the "Project Kehlstein" on Obersalzberg



Newly discovered and partly previously unpublished footage of the secret construction of Adolf Hitlers Eagle's Nest (Kehlsteinhaus) and the road make this video the ultimate documentary about the "Project Kehlstein". NEVER BEFORE there was such an extensive documentary about the development of the probably most daring building project of the III. Reich.




MARTIN BORMAN - ADOLF HITLERS MASTER-BUILDER - Documentary



After the Nazi Partys seizure of power in January 1933 Hitler spent more and more time in his private house „Berghof“ on the Obersalzberg. While Hitler was in residence at the Berghof, Martin Bormann who was at that time „Reichsleiter“, which was the second highest political rank in the Nazi party, was constantly in attendance and acted as Hitler's personal secretary. From there on, members of the inner circle also built their houses in the immediate vicinity of the “Berghof”. The increasingly frequent stays of Hitler on the Obersalzberg required higher security measures. To finance the extensive accommodations on the Obersalzberg, Bormann set up the Adolf Hitler Fund of German Trade and Industry which collected money from German industrialists on Hitler's behalf. Bormann commissioned the construction of barracks for the SS guards, roads and footpaths, garages for motor vehicles, a guesthouse, accommodation for staff, and many other amenities. Retaining title in his own name, Bormann bought up adjacent farms until the entire complex covered 10 square kilometres. (3.9 sq mi)





This is just the beginning. There are 100s of videos waiting to be digitized and uploaded.

Please support this projekt by giving a sub. It would really help a lot as this project is still very small and does not cost you anything

Thanks for your time and have fun watching!
