But where would they have gone ? Some say they move to Argentina , protected by the large-hearted Juan Peron administration , but others believe they escaped to a secret substructure in Antarctica that was already developing startling and sinewy raw weapons . clobber They Do n’t Want You To recognise hosts Matt Frederick and Ben Bowlin appear all the hypothesis — and facts — in the podcastDid the Nazis Really Make UFOs ?

short after World War II cease , the United States hop on a huge excursion to Antarctica calledOperation Highjump . It was n’t the first time the U.S. cash in one’s chips there : As too soon as the 1800s , scientific team from several countries were trying to explore , map and put on dominion over the last uninhabited continent . But the size of Operation Highjump exceeded all others ; more than 4,000 U.S. personnel department , plus dozens of aircraft and ships were part of the expedition result by Adm. Richard Byrd . Although the commission was intended to last six to nine month , it ended abruptly after just one .

Nazi UFOs

Conspiracy theoretician believeit ended because the contingent was being constantly bombarded by artillery , and the men support heavy casualties . Byrd was quoted in theChilean Press sayingthey were met by a new foeman that " could fly from rod to punt at unbelievable pep pill , " though the U.S. would not confirm his information . And what ’s more , severalreports existof pilots seeingUFOs — flat , disc - like aircraft that chased , but never scoot at , them .

Did these UFOs come from Neuschwabenland , the hugger-mugger Nazi basis build in the 1930s , bragged aboutby German Grand Admiral Karl Dönitz in 1943 ? Did all the brilliant but distorted scientist involved in Nazi atrocities really scrunch down in the frozen forlornness of the South Pole to continueinventing young arm , unobserved by the domain ? Or to make contact with reptilian alien who shared their advanced technology ?

The functionary storyfrom the United States regarding Operation Highjump is that only one plane crash , bolt down three pilots . And it ’s true the Nazisdid mounttheir own expedition to Antarctica in 1938 , though they did n’t take enough personnel to build up much of anything , let alone a technologically advanced base capable of creating unidentified flying object .

So why were they there in 1938 ? And how did the U.S. Army and Navy explain those ball of light so many airplane pilot report find out during Operation Highjump ? Were they being go after by UFOs?Or was it just St. Elmo ’s fireperhaps?Listen to the integral podcastas Matt and Ben break down all the detail of Nazis , UFOs , reptilian overlords and Adm.
