Also weird is the skull purported to have been found in the Germany bunker turned out to be the skull of a woman. None of Hitler's remains were ever found.
Wikipedia says that in 2017 the soviet dental records were once again matched to x rays from life and conformed to his diet. That said, it appeared that that jaw didn't die by oral gunshot
Some real bastards got through the ratlines including mengele, but Hitler didn't stand a chance there. His body was destroyed, likely to avert posthumous humiliation (which was done to mussolini) as Berlin was shelled by the soviets. Even if he had made it to Argentina, Mossad spent half a century killing nazis in South America. If they had a chance of bringing the big guy to stand trial in Israel you bet your ass they'd've used every intelligence resource they had to make it happen. And keep in mind the person they'd be looking for is a German vegetarian drug addict with IBS that doesn't drink and has one of the most well known faces on the planet even now 80 years after his death. He would've stuck out.
It's pretty interesting. I'm sure you've been through this much more thoroughly, but for anyone like me who isn't familiar, this Wikipedia page seems to be a decent overview:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conspiracy_theories_about_Adolf_Hitler's_death
It mentions some dental evidence that Hitler did die. Plenty of them escaped though, and the USA even made sure to support the Nazis it found most useful, both overseas and at home.
