What were some of the human experiments performed by the German surgeons on POWs during WW2?

Answer 1

one was to change eye color from brown to blue read any thing about joesph magela a nazi DR.

Answer 2

Those medical experiments were not conducted on POWs in general. They were conducted on political prisoners and concentration camp prisoners. The term POW stands for Prisoner Of War, and would have only applied to soldiers and the like captured from opposing armies. The Germans treated wester POWs reasonably well. Russians were not treated well, but not experimented on, just starved and abused.

Some of the experiments involved performing surgery without anesthetics, testing what a human could survive, or how much they could take and still be resusitated after. Very nasty stuff to do to a person.

Answer 3

Which concentration camp are you asking about... they did different things at different camps... or do you really want to know because you OBVIOUSLY don't know the difference between a POW PRISONER OF WAR and a POLITICAL PRISONER.

The Germans did NOT do human experiments on POW's because of the Geneva Convention.

I've seen your questions before and they never really seem to be asked because you want to actually KNOW something.. but because you just want people to think how brilliant you are.

Answer 4

The Germans performed many experiments on concentration camp prisoners. They experimented with various methods of sterilization using x-rays. They experimented with freezing prisoners almost to the point of death, and tried various methods of warming them up. They starved some people under controlled conditions to see how long it would take them to die. They experimented with various extermination procedures such as carbon monoxide, acid injections directly into the heart.

A truly evil enterprise.

Answer 5

I heard they made an experiment in which they would do something to a baby's nerve system which would make baby cry all the time.Then they would close the baby with it's mother in a cell.And then they would see how much time does it take to make baby's own mother kill it because of constant noise.Sick indeed (if true).

Answer 6

they did all kinds of experiments on living people, like seeing how long someone could live after getting shot, losing a limb, etc. Look up the nazi doctor Josef Mengela, and read all about it, it will make you sick.....

Answer 7

You don't want to know. You'll have nightmares.
