Why was Adolf Hitler the way he was? As simple as the question sounds, even more than 80 years after the death of the Nazi dictator, a clear answer remains elusive, and any new attempt at explanation causes controversy.

A British documentary now aims to shed light on this through an analysis of Hitler’s DNA, CE Report quotes ATA.

Although there are doubts about the methodology and conclusions, fascination seems as strong as ever.

The Times reported in its coverage of the documentary “Hitler’s DNA: The Plan of a Dictator” that Hitler had a hidden genetic sexual disorder.

The film also addresses rumors that Hitler had secret Jewish ancestry.

The documentary is scheduled to air today on Channel 4 in the United Kingdom.

Channel 4 is promoting the documentary with the slogan: “For the first time, experts identify Hitler’s DNA. What do his genes reveal about his heritage, origin, neurology, and motives?”

The documentary’s research team reports having found indications of Kallmann syndrome in Hitler’s genetic material, according to British media reports.

In people with this syndrome, puberty is absent or incomplete.

For example, in boys, only a small amount of body hair develops, and the voice may remain high-pitched.

Other sexual characteristics may not develop as they usually do in adults.

However, conclusions about personality are difficult to reach.

“Some of the findings are scientifically accurate and will contribute to historical debate,” wrote The Guardian.

Nevertheless, conclusions about Hitler’s traits are scientifically problematic.

According to the information, the DNA analysis is based on a blood sample from a couch that American forces found in the Führer’s bunker after Hitler’s death on April 30, 1945, and Germany’s defeat in World War II.

It is believed that Hitler shot himself on this couch.

Proof that it was the dictator’s blood is said to have been confirmed in 2008 through a comparison with the DNA of a man with a shared paternal ancestor.
