The Nazis in WWII did a lot of experiments on prisoners, but did they ever find something that could be put to practical use?

I've only heard of their hypothermia revival techniques and nothing more.

>> No.4005086

>>4005079

well the japanese did some useful work
wikipedia Unit 731

they figured out the consequences of doing live vivisections without anesthesia. Apparently it is very painful.

>> No.4005096

hypothermia, effects on the human body in a vacuum which apparently led to some knowledge about going into space and how to survive

>> No.4005101

I remeber a few years ago some moralfag bullshit about sketches, photos, and other documentation gained from NAZI experiments on concentration camp victims being still widely used in medical texts.

>something that could be put to practical use?

research about long time ingestion of tiny doses of fluoride (it eventually makes you dumb and docile). they found out that the first that goes is the ability to recognize the condition (it acts too slow). it can be further masked by adding trace amounts of lithium. so the plebs feel happy to only think and do what you tell them. and the few that do not respond appropriately are coopted to work as 'guardians of the people'. that surely will neutralize them.

wouldn't that be something for a future scientific dictatorship?

I read cynisms here.

Mengele was a total fail at medschool/university. He could only make it up to something inside the mindless Nazi machinery. And still today German administration privileges the complete conscienceless idiots.

>> No.4005593

Josef Mengele made some advances in genetics, but his findings have either been destroyed or held from the publlic for obvious reasons.

>> No.4005604

>>4005593
His scientific works were of really poor quality. His recordings were shitty. The techniques were sloppy. He didn't do hypotheses before experimenting. Not one finding was reproducible, not even by himself. Worst of all, the tiger-human-crossbreeding project did a total crashlanding.

Their work wasn't very scientific. Fuck, if I was in their position I'd something useful like language deprivation experiments etc. so dickheads wouldn't always have to argue about it

>> No.4005630

IIRC, one of the Nazi human experimentation guys made some important findings regarding hypoxia, but I can't find any references to it after about 5 minutes Googling.

I study EE, and In one of my courses, they talked about what happened to a person when a certain amount of eletrical current when through them(I think 400ma = death).
I've always wondered how they found this shit, could it be that the nazis found this?

anymore? i read unit 731 and the nazi experiments

>> No.4005687

>>4005655
No but they really tried to develop some sort of a nazo super-warrior. With claws and uniform and stuff.
So Mengele inseminated jewish women with tiger sperm. Of course nothing except a waste of time and money happened.

However, a lot of comparative brain anatomy research was performed at the kaiser-wilhelm-brain-institute. Thousands died in this. Nothing was found.

>> No.4005704

The wolverine story clearly is inspired by this nazo bullcrap. As are a lot of other american comics. Look at superman, he is a depicted as the "Ubermensch" the nazis fancied.
