Description
At the end of World War 2, there was a very high profile war crimes trial held in Nuremberg that saw former members of the Third Reich's government brought to a courtroom. Many military generals and officials were also accused of war crimes, and 11 men were sentenced to death. 10 of these executions were carried out, however they did not go very well. The equipment used as in the gallows was not fit for purpose, and the executioner was also very unskilled. In this documentary we look at 5 of the executions and assess why they went wrong.
