The generally accepted cause of the death of Adolf Hitler on April 30, 1945 is suicide by gunshot and cyanide poisoning. The dual method and other circumstances surrounding the event encouraged rumours that Adolf Hitler may have survived the end of World War II along with speculation about what happened to his remains. The 1993 opening of records kept by the Russian KGB and FSB confirmed the widely accepted version of the death of Hitler as described by Hugh Trevor-Roper in his book The Last Days of Hitler published in 1947. The Russian archives did, however, shed some new light on what happened to the cadaver.

Adolf Hitler died in his bunker from a self inflicted gunshot wound to the head after he swallowed a cyanide capsule. He died with his dog and his new bride Eva Braun as the Soviet Union troops were within meters of his bunker in Berlin.

He first took poison. But since that didn't work fast enough he shot himself in the head with a pistol.

He committed suicide by shooting himself while biting a cyanide capsule. He also supposedly tried out the poison first on his dog.
