performed experiments on humans. German scientists and physicians are not stupid by a long shot. One example that i have read about is this one. NAZI pilots were being shot down over the North Sea. They survived the crash but froze to death in the ice cold water. Physicians developed a way to bring them back by thawing them out some way.
Maybe 15 years ago a young boy fell through ice into ice cold water and froze. Doctor using the NAZI technique brought him back. The moral question came up. Is it right to use techniques developed by using humans to bring back a person from freezing? A perplexing question when it is someone elses child. But of it is my son Damned right it is OK. How about your child or loved one?

The Nazi's preformed horrible, horrible experiments on living people. The only reason they could do this is because they had no regard for any life besides their own. But I think that using that information, for example the bringing back a person from freezing, should be able to used. Otherwise didn't the Jews and others who were murdered die in vain? We should condemn all those who preformed those experiments, but if the knowledge can be used to help others, we should be able to use it.

you are speaking of victims of a crash, who basically died in it, attempts to bring them back, that prove useful to later people are totally different then taking both children and grown-ups, who are held hostage, and experimenting on them

would you want your heathy son frozen to death, so a person could experiment on them? even if it benefited mankind later
i suggest, if you wish to be in an experiment, go for it, dont accept others being forced into it though

yes, horrible experiments were done, try reading some accounts of the suvivors, there are many resources around
