The

The On March 16th of the year 1911, a young German couple in the southern state of Bavaria welcomed a sun into the world.

As they doaded on him, the two new parents wandered what exciting adventures life had in store for their darling baby boy.

Yet little did they know, the name they gave him would become synonymous with some of the most hideous acts of cruelty the world is ever known.

They named him Yosef, Yosef Mengele.

But he would go on to earn the nickname Todasengel, which in English means angel of death.

Little Yosef displayed signs of advanced intelligence from an early age and showed talents for music, art, and winter sports.

He graduated high school in April of 1930,

then went on to study philosophy at the University of Munich, and it was here that Yosef first took an interest in the politics of the extreme far right. The following year, he joined an organization

known as the Steel Helmets,

a right-wing paramilitary group comprised mostly of First World War veterans that had close ties to the Nazi party.

So close, in fact, that just a few years later, they were willingly absorbed into the Nazi's own paramilitary unit,

the Storm Detachment, or SA, with young

Yosef following close behind.

Two years following his graduation from the University of Munich in 1935, Yosef found

work at Frankfurt's Institute of Hereditary Biology and Racial Hygiene.

By this point, Hitler and the Nazis wielded absolute control over the

German state, and as the name suggests, the Institute for Racial Hygiene was merely a tool by which to

implement their nightmarish plan for the German people. By the time he was hired by the Frankfurt Institute,

Yosef was a fanatical Nazi and was fully invested in their hideous racial pseudosciences.

Yet it wasn't just race that fascinated Yosef.

It was genetics as a whole.
