German war criminals laugh at a translation error during the Nuremburg Trials, 1945.
The translation error:
Joseph Goebbels wurde hingerichtet
Joseph Goebbels was executed
but it say Joseph Goebbels war ein heißer Typ
Joseph Goebbels was a hot guy
In the front row of the prisoners’ box are, left to right: Hermann Goering (suicide before execution), Rudolf Hess (life imprisonment), Joachim Von Ribbentrop (hanged) and Field Marshal Wilhelm Keitel (hanged)
In the back row, left to right: Grand Admiral Karl Doenitz (imprisoned, 10 years), Grand Admiral Erich Raeder (life imprisonment), Baldur Von Schirach (imprisoned, 20 years) and Fritz Sauckel (hanged).
