My channel is one of the most prolific from Poland, although not amongst the most visited. With almost one film per day, one may be forgiven for thinking I do nothing else but I do have a day job as well. I have produced around 1,000 original films, most in English but also in Polish, French, Italian, Spanish and the occasional hint of German and Hebrew. My big interest in life is travel and history but I have also placed films on other subjects

Please feel free to ask questions in the public area or to comment on things you disagree with. Sometimes there are mistakes because I speak without preparation. If I see the mistakes myself, I make this clear in the text. Please also leave a star rating!

There are a number of films here on the packaging industry. This is because I am the publisher of Central and Eastern European Packaging -- http://www.ceepackaging.com - the international platform for the packaging industry in this region focusing on the latest innovations, trends, design, branding, legislation and environmental issues with in-depth profiles of major industry achievers.

Most people may think packaging pretty boring but it possibly effects your life more than you really imagine!

Central and Eastern European Packaging examines the packaging industry throughout this region, but in particular in the largest regional economies which are Russia, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Ukraine and Austria. That is not to say that the other countries are forgotten, they are not, but obviously there is less going on. However the fact that there are so many travel related films here is not from holidays but from business trips attending trade fairs around the region. Every packaging trade fair is a new excuse to make another film!

In 1997 I founded Polish Business News http://www.pbn.com.pl .There are a number of business related films here and I intend to do many more on CRM (customer relations management).

My blog can be found via http://www.ceepackaging.com and http://www.pbn.com.pl and contains background information and more details of many of my films. This information is in English.

A great book on this subject is "The Nazi Doctors" by Jay Lifton. A very scholarly piece of work with much details of the T-4 programs.

Thank you very much for the suggestion.

Interesting place, what is it now days? Museum or...? And did you see anyone there, that was so quiet and peaceful place?

I also have a film called Hadamar which shows the town today.

"The crimes were atrocious but were largely due to one man. "

That is a crazy notion! Hitler was far from the only evil, demented person - Himmler, Heydrich, and many, many others at every level were at least as warped - or this would've never happened. There was a convergence of multi-faceted evil in human form at precisely the right (or wrong if you like) moment in history. And your advocating Nazism to control what you perceive as a problem is both offensive and disgusting! Shame on you!

It looks like a nice little town as do many of the places you visit. I saw a muslim head stone, thats interesting.

From what I have read, the relatives were not complicit. They were told that their loved ones died of natural causes. I will stand to be corrected if anyone has authoritative evidence to the contrary.

[innit27]

You wonder if the relations of those with disabilities killed were complicit, or didn't know or could do nothing about it?

The most chilling thing is the town would have functioned as normally back then as it does now with maybe only rumours going round about what was happening.

Thats why the Allies made local townspeople clear up some of the concentration camps so they could never say we didnt know what was going on or if they did they know could witness the consequences.

I love germany brilliant cars/people/countryside etc But its still hard to believe this happened and not very long ago too, terrible chilling almost to think that this was even allowed to take place and not very long ago really To what extent does anyonethink this made any difference? does german not have as large an extent of people with mental disabilies as say we do in Britian or its neighbouring countries as a per centage! crazy
