I'm so glad he eventually agreed to be interviewed ❤️

[@binkytube]

A different kind of tragic story. I wish more men would give testimonies. This interviewer is one of the best!

[@laurap.5804]

they are both such beautiful heart people! I heard her testimony as well

[@marciamatteini7604]

What a sensitive man . It made me cry to see him get emotional. God bless him

[@sueannebrown2709]

The store is very profound, and the interviewer is great

[@AmyK-jw5bu]

What a sweet, articulate, brave man. ❤️

[@cindyhalpern3187]

The Survivor gave a good account. There was no need for the interviewer to have him repeat it again. Perhaps she should have listened better!

[@margaretroselle8610]

Thank you so much, Sir, for sharing your testimony. I’m very grateful.

[@TripleG69]

I apologise to the Jewish people for what was done to them. May you stay strong in your faith in God the Creator for He promised to bring all His children back to Him. May you be blessed indeed.

[@cindyhalpern3187]

That interviewer was very rude to the survivor's wife. Doesn't she know any manners? Apparently not. The Survivor's wife was very gracious!

[@owentube2970]

Great man great testimony

[@diginot8590]

How is he a child in 1942? He was born in 4/9/1922? 8/25/98 date of interview. Said he was 78. That would make his birth year 1920. Not trying to discount his testimony.

[@mth469]

the more i listen to these numerous testimonies the more ill i feel hearing the word germany.

[@jamessandy5873]

This is in no way meant as a criticism, but at 53:32: "That was 1942." The year doesn't make any sense given everything he said before or at 1:00:23 when he says, "That was already March 1945."

[@TheAnthoula14]

I noticed that too. I think he meant 1943. Mengele arrived at the camp that year anyway, he wasn't there in 1942. That would make more sense also because it sounds like he was in camp for total close to two years before liberation.

💔

[@jankench8692]

on a practical note, it is such a shame that you can hear the interviewer clearly but the survivor has not been given a mike close enough to hear the answers that clearly. This survivor is not too bad to hear but some of the others are impossible. Something to watch out for if your are doing this project in future.

[@MarkEliasGrant]

What future? Survivors are nearly 100 years old. What are you talking about??

[@kathystark6762]

@@MarkEliasGrant , Don't worry, there are still plenty of people to interview that are younger than 100 yrs old. This man was still in his 70's during this interview. Even though this was 11 yrs ago, he's still far from 100.

[@TripleG69]

God has a very special place in hell for everyone who lifted a hand against His chosen people. May they enjoy every moment of punishment and pain.

[@manueladarazsdi9675]

They are people like everyone else.

[@pemchem]

What are you talking about? It works fine.

[@Bridgette1111]

Why are all of the interviewers absolutely terrible at their job on these incredibly important, highly emotional & historical testimonies?! Like wtf 🥺 Do better!

[@AB-fp2dq]

This interviewer is terrible rude way
