Holocaust Survivor Ernest Lobet Testimony Part 2 | USC Shoah Foundation

[@staycurious644]

What an incredible story of survival, tragedy, resilience, hope, courage and perseverance. Ernest had a wonderful perspective and a great sense of humour. His comments about inaction against prejudice and tyranny will stay with me forever.

[@jenniferkauffman7287]

His demeanor is so gentle and he has suffered so much. Peace to him.

[@shakr1965]

So much strength in one man. An honor to have been given the opportunity to hear his story. May god bless him and his beautiful family

[@charlesclark8835]

What an brave, interesting, and extremely kind man. I don't understand why videos from this series have such low viewer numbers.

[@NArty-e2y]

Love this account of his experience. Very moving. I admire the survivors for sharing their pain with us.

[@johannesnicolaas]

First I read the autobiography of the English soldier ("Ginger") who helped Ernest Lobet a lot. Then I saw this. Greatly moved me. He seems to have a inner joy which is amasing...

[@Kate-fr7qc]

He has a delightful personality and I learned a lot

[@cherylmccarthy2932]

I want to thank Mr. Libert for his testimony. His ability to survive is admirable.I also want to thank Ms. Louise Lobrow for very skilled interview.

[@jennifertrujillo2785]

God bless you, you are so brave. Thank you for sharing your amazing story. I will never forget.

What a remarkable life Ernest has lived. Full of pain and tragedy but he never give up. His story made me sob so many times. I spent most of yesterday and today listening, although needed to stop many times because it was so overwhelmingly sad. I cannot imagine going through that much pain without giving up at some point. What remarkable resilient human being he is and I am so sorry for what happened to him and his people. I hope he is still with us and I’m sure his children and family are so proud of him 🙏🏾

[@Aeriyana123]

What a beautiful human being! His story was filled with such tragedies but he yet he rises despite it all! Good bless you and your family.

[@JenniferJane78]

Thank-you for sharing these stories and lessons.

[@lowbridgehit]

such a smart and dignified man.

[@jimmythecactus475]

I feel guilty for saying for this but it was a beautiful story, I laughed and cried with Ernest it was such a moving testimony

[@sreckosx]

We should make a movie here - this man has THE best story for a great movie ! I know I would watch it ! Great ! Bravo to You Sir !

[@jimzucker]

it's hard to imagine you survive all that and at the end you have a whole life in front of you and very few people could really unde3rtsand what happened to you, but most people in your everyday, never will. It is really hard to lead a good life imo after you experienced so much horror as such a young age. Rest in peace Ernst

[@martinfabiano9668]

A great orator Ernest Lobet and a down to earth person who has a pragmatic outlook on life before, during and after the holocaust. When asked about his faith in God and his religious interpretation of how he survived and so forth, I love his simple, analytical and very pragmatic response. RIP and thank you for sharing a very painful, tragic moments, and stories in his life and history too. Unfortunately wars have not stopped and genocide, too and the wars are mostly not fought by those people who started them for power and greed and many other reasons, but it is fought by the innocent people. The real causalities of war are all the civilian population and soldiers who must follow what their leaders tell them to do. Would be nice to find out what became of his children and grandchildren after Ernest Lobet's passing and hear their thoughts on everything.

A remarkable man,who had to cope with,he was successful to go to America.

[@livingdeadgirl8074]

So important. Great teller of events.

[@amyhinrichs4519]

Great stories…a very complete picture

[@thekravika5258]

What an extremely interesting and warm man

[@christyleroux6971]

Perseverance overcome resistance, this man is a perfect example of survival , what a absolute pleasure to listen to this story ,, no self pity do what you have to do , and that he did by taking every opportunity that came his way , remarkable man indeed , a success story ,but alas not without tremendous hardships and risk , but never underestimate those that couldn't have the will to survive after losing they're love ones under the most barbaric treatment they're had experience , he understood how Blessed he was , been young , and not having to suffer the horrific lost of love ones accompanying on his deportation , so sorry that he lost his Faith , and hope that he reconcile with Gd , Toda . Shalom

[@autumnhaywood1851]

You've instilled healthy humility & inspiration in so many people. Much love 🌻♥️ This is quite possibly my favorite 'story' out of all stories [on life in general] that Ive heard.

[@kathleenshipmen1530]

Incredible journey,

[@unmaskscience111]

His use of f word had me in hysterics

[@blindpew69]

What an intelligent, remarkable and charming man. A really inspirational story, mixing luck with tenacity and an ability to exploit an essential niche as a means of survival in Auschwitz Birkenau. The emotion at the death of his friend who he had to leave behind was completely shattering and raw still and will stay with me for a long time. His story after the war was also remarkable - spending years going through college and then training for a law degree, all at night school. It was a privilege and honour to hear his story.

[@AlexKTMX72]

Amazing man. Thank you for making this record for future generations.

[@ovendetox]

He says the only other country in Europe that spoke German was Switzerland! Forgive me if I'm wrong what about Austria?

[@de33iene]

Austria was annexed by Germany in 1938 - 27.04.1945 and Hitler was austrian, so I guess, it wouldnt been much better to claim than german.

[@redfire20003]

And parts of Czechoslovakia had native German speakers...Sudetenland.

[@foca7550]

@@redfire20003There was a large German speaking population all over Europe prior to WWII. This is because Germans colonised most of Central, Southern and Eastern Europe in the past centuries. Many Germans from these communities collaborated so it wouldn’t be much better for Mr. Lobet to claim to be from there.

[@rositahuff4858]

…..I agree….how could it happen ? If there was a god?

[@redfire20003]

I hope he was able to find out his Grandmother's fate.

[@julialarsen]

The interviewer could sound warmer

[@stst77]

She’s much better than a lot of them who can be outright rude.

He has the scars to speak and believe whatever he wants

[@wtmpotus994]

Seems to be honest but
