Previously
on "Hunting Hitler"...

This is from June 12th, 1945.

"At this time, the decision
had been taken

to divide the ministries
in two parts

and establish
one government in the north

and one in the south."

What this file tells me
is they're splitting up,

creating multiple escape routes.

Tim found both the U-boat and
the seaplane near each other.

Look at this.
OSS, predecessor of the CIA.

"I have spoken about refueling
seaplanes from U-boats."

What these U-boats are

are gasoline stations
in the middle of the Atlantic.

This document opens up
a whole new set of options

for Hitler to get out of Europe.

This is the logical end
of the northern route.

We now have to figure out
whether the southern route

would've also gotten him
to South America.

The Red Cross was actually
producing legitimate documents

with false identities.

The documents were something
that was secure,

so if they had those documents,

they could easily
get out of Rome.

Once they'd got a real
passport, they're home free.

This is the last piece
of the puzzle, then.

All roads lead to Rome,

and then from there
to Buenos Aires.

HUNTING HITLER - SEASON 3
EP - 6 - Lurking Beneath the Surface

We've established
two routes, and they worked.

We're talking about thousands
upon thousands of Nazis

who got out using
one of these two routes.

21-year CIA veteran Bob Baer

and former terrorist targeting
officer Nada Bakos

are using
an asset-mapping strategy,

tracking Hitler's
known associates

to pinpoint where he could
have gone after the war.

After investigating across
four countries in Europe,

the team has found
two well-organized

and highly sophisticated
escape routes

that could have been used

to get Hitler safely
to South America...

One to the north through Norway

and one to the south
through Italy.

The core of this story is,
had Hitler gotten out,

he could have made it
to South America.

Hitler could have taken
either the northern

or the southern escape routes.

What we found in Europe
was extraordinary.

These routes were planned
to perfection,

and they were all organized

to get Hitler and senior Nazis
to Argentina.

We showed that,
if Hitler got to South America,

he would have had multiple
safe houses in Argentina.

Previously in the investigation,

Bob and the team uncovered
multle locations

that Hitler could have used
to hide

within the interior
of Argentina,

one in Misiones...

You have observation posts,
structures, defense positions.

This is way more
than a hideout in the jungle.

...and another in Bariloche.

It's perfect
for a high-value target.

Looks like a little guard shack.

You put a machine gun
right there,

you can cover
this entire body of water,

and nothing could get through.

We've looked into Argentina,

but we have not been
looking at Buenos Aires.

That is the end of the route.

For me, Buenos Aires
is still a question mark.

Adolf Eichmann, we know,
gets captured up there.

In 1950, Adolf Eichmann fled
to Buenos Aires, Argentina,

where he lived in a modest house

and worked as a foreman
for Mercedes-Benz

under the alias Ricardo Klement.

Essentially, living in the open,

he felt safe.

What were the Nazis doing there?

What's the connection?

We'd never really looked at any
of the reports from there,

and I think it's time we do.

Let's do a search...
Nazis, Buenos Aires.

We have a report
from March 24, 2015.

"In Laguna de Rocha, a seaplane
had to make an emergency landing

on October 31, 1945,

then continued to Buenos Aires.

Incognito, it was rumored

there were former Nazi officials
and a cargo of gold onboard."

We have a seaplane landing
on the 31st of October, 1945.

Supposedly, it's got Nazis on it
and a cargo of gold onboard,

and then they go
to Buenos Aires.

This is totally incredible.

Here's Laguna de Rocha.

Here's Buenos Aires.

It's 230 miles.

We're connecting the dots.

We know we have
a seaplane in Norway.

We found it.

If this report turns
out to be true,

we know where
the seaplanes are going.

They're going to Buenos Aires.

I'm interested in why they think

there were former
Nazi officials onboard.

We have to get to the bottom
of this story.

I want some evidence this plane
really did land there

and if there were Nazis
and gold on this airplane,

or is it just more mythology?

We need to get the team
to Laguna de Rocha

to see if there's anybody
they can talk to.

We keep coming back
to Argentina,

and now we're coming back
in a big way.

Everything coming out of Europe,

whether it's the northern
route line, southern route line,

everything comes back
into Buenos Aires. Yeah.

U.S. Army Special Forces
Tim Kennedy,

U.S. Army Green Beret
Mike Simpson,

and their local contact, Dante,

land
in Laguna de Rocha, Uruguay,

where a seaplane
carrying high-ranking Nazis

was rumored to have made
an emergency landing.

This has to be
the lagoon right here.

Yep.

It is a very real possibility

that even Adolf Hitler could
have arrived in South America

on a plane just like this.

We're going to investigate
to determine

if the seaplane did, in fact,

make an emergency landing
here in Uruguay

and see if there's
any possibility

that there were any Nazis
using this seaplane to escape.

Let's go talk to him.

The team makes contact
with Don Tito,

a local resident
who lives only 500 yards away

from the alleged landing site

and who claims to have
witnessed the crash firsthand.

Thanks for taking
the time to talk to us.

We were told that you were
a witness to an airplane,

a seaplane crash that
happened in the lagoon.

How old were you
when the plane crashed?

Can you tell us everything
that you remember

about when that plane crashed?

He remembers
there was a crash and a splash.

He has the image
and the sound of that,

and he says he saw it from here,

from this place,
two blocks that way.

Around 40 and 50.

Okay. 50 passengers.

And they were mainly German.

The local enforcement took
a very quick action on it,

and they had ambulance
waiting for them on the shore.

So, without the aid
of cellphones,

they responded
very, very quickly.

Do I have that right?

The local enforcement
appeared very quickly. Yes.

He remembers this plane
coming towards the lagoon

followed by three...

Tres

By three little planes
like a convoy

trying to rescue
or guide them to the lagoon.

What kind of a commercial
plane flies with an escort?

The fact that there were three
planes accompanying the seaplane

is something I find
very interesting.

This tells me this was not
a typical airliner of any sort.

This was something important

possibly containing
a high-value target.

What ultimately happened to...

They replaced the broken engine
and fixed it.

Have you ever heard
that there were Nazis

or Nazi gold on this airplane?

He cannot say
or confirm that's true.

Do you personally believe

that these men that were
on the plane were Nazis

or that there was Nazi gold?

- No.
- He can't get into that,

but one of the passengers
had bodyguards,

and that's all he recalls.

I mean, he's afraid.

He's scared even after
all these years.

This is something
that we have seen

time and time again
in this investigation.

People don't want
to talk about it.

Even 70 years
after the war has ended,

people are still scared
to talk about Nazis.

For Mike and I,
this is the biggest red flag.

In 1945, if you have 40 people
on a seaplane

with bodyguards and escort,

this couldn't be anybody
but the highest level,

upper echelon of the Nazi Party.

If we can find something
physical from that plane,

that could propel
this investigation forward.

Let's go take a look.

Don Tito leads the team
to the shore of the lagoon

where the seaplane reportedly
landed over 70 years ago.

So where was it?

About 300 meters from here.

300 meters out?

We now have a specific
reference point to the search.

Evidence could be waiting
for us to find

on the bottom of that lagoon.

This could be the launch
point to finding out

if the seaplane
did land on the lagoon

and if this plane was truly
transporting high-level Nazis.

If there's something there,
we'll be able to find it.

Absolutely.

- This is secluded.
- Very.

You don't get moreural
than this.

In Laguna de Rocha, Uruguay,
Tim Kennedy and Mike Simpson

investigate a report

claiming that in 1945,
a seaplane

rumored to have been carrying
high-ranking Nazis

made an emergency landing
at a local lagoon.

We need to find anything
that would definitively prove

if this plane was here

and if it's truly transporting
high-level Nazis

from Europe to Buenos Aires.

These might be our guys
right here.

In hopes of uncovering evidence

that a seaplane landed here
over 70 years ago,

Tim and Mike are joined

by a local
marine surveying team...

How you doing?

...to help them scan
the waters of the lagoon

for any pieces of the plane
that may still remain.

We have an eyewitness
and a document

that says a seaplane
landed in this lagoon.

They had an emergency landing.

We need to find bits of
the aircraft in our search area.

Does that work?

Yes. We can help you there.

Awesome.

They know the lagoon,

so they can help us out
with this, for sure.

Let's get the equipment
on the boat

and see what we can see.

All right?

Something could be preserved
in this lagoon very easily.

You know, you don't
have lots of swell.

You don't have
a lot of movement.

There's very little tide shift.

If something dropped off
70 years ago from this aircraft,

there's a good chance we're
going to be able to find it.

Tim, this is Mike. Radio check.

Mike, I got you, Lima Charlie.

We are approaching
our target area.

We're going to go ahead
and put the side-scan sonar

into the water
and start our search.

Although the water
is only four feet deep,

a heavy silt layer
and poor visibility

make it difficult
to locate any objects below,

so the team will deploy
side-scanning sonar

to penetrate
to the lagoon floor.

If we didn't have
the side-scan sonar,

there would be no point
in even conducting this search.

The water
is so incredibly murky.

Using a grid-pattern search,

they'll investigate
the 300-square-yard crash site

identified by the eyewitness.

One boat will survey with sonar
while the other drops buoys

to mark any points of interest.

All right, Mike.
Sonar is in the water.

Sonar is in the water.

Roger that.

Right now,
we're in our target area,

and we are recording.

GPS is running.

If something is going
to be down there,

we should be able to see it.

I hope you're right.

There's no telling what's
actually in the lagoon...

You know, fishing nets, motors,
transmissions out of cars.

That silt can cover
and disguise anything,

so we have to be precise
in our movements,

and we have to be methodical
in our search pattern.

All right.
We're going to be doing

our turn here
in a couple minutes,

finishing this line.

And nothing on there.

Hey, hey, hey,
right here, right here.

We got something right here.

About a foot in width

and maybe a foot and a half
in length.

Copy that, Tim. We'll go ahead
and mark it with a buoy.

Standing by for countdown.

Five, four, three, two...

Located 275 yards offshore,

the team has identified
a small man-made object

on the lagoon floor.

We're almost at the end
of the search line.

All right.

We got about another

50 to 100 meters
of our search area.

Copy that.

Hey. Hey, hey, hey.

Right here, right here,
right here.

All right. Hey.
We got another target.

Look at that. That's a big one.

This thing is a clear line.
Solid, flat line.

It's about 5 or 6 feet
in length,

and it's a solid return,
hard return coming back.

That sonar is coming off
something dense, for sure.

All right. 10 feet.
Get set. Here we go.

Three, two, one.

Drop, drop, drop.

Buoy is in.

These are more or less
in a straight line.

This is where Don Tito said
things are going to be,

and now we're finding stuff.

The team has located
two areas of interest

within 100 yards of each other,
positioned in a straight line

following the general path
the seaplane reportedly took

when it landed in this lagoon
over 70 years ago.

All that's left to do now
that we've got them marked

is get suited up
and get in the water.

Let's head back to shore,
grab our wet suits,

and then try to recover whatever
the buoys are sitting on top of.

With two anomalies identified

on the floor
of the shallow-water lagoon,

the team will conduct
a reconnaissance

of the target area on foot.

We're hopeful that
these are something

left over from this aircraft,

something to give me a clue

as to if the seaplane
did land on the lagoon

and who was onboard
and what it was carrying.

We have our targets.

Now we just need to go see

what's underneath those buoys.

All right.
Got the first buoy right there.

Perfecto.

I'm getting in.

So stay kind of, like,
feet distance apart.

Yeah. Sounds good.

Let's try not to get cut
on anything either, though.

You have anything over there?

Nothing.

Something just moved
in my fingers.

Oh, that... Whoa, that's big.

Yeah.

It's coming
all the way out to here.

A little bit stuck. Yeah.

I got it. I got it.

One, two, three. Three.

Holy

That... The hell is this thing?

Looks like it's been
down there a while, huh?

It's busted up for sure.

Yeah, it is.

This looks like where
it was torn off...

Yeah. ...right here on this end.

This looks like
it's an engine part.

This is coming off
something big.

That is not from a
boat motor. Yeah.

This has no business
being out here. No.

We found something
in our target area.

Clearly, it's a part of a motor,

but I don't know if this
is part of our aircraft.

We have to keep looking.

With anomaly one identified
as a potential engine part,

Mike and Tim walk 100 yards
to the area of anomaly two.

Last marker.
This was the biggest echo.

All right.

Aah!

What do you got?

There's, like,
a sharp edge right here.

Something here.

How big is this?

Tim, this is big,
whatever it is.

Loosen it?
No, I can't move mine.

All right. It's moving now.

Back and forth? Yeah.

This is metal.
Yeah, go left and right.

Go left and right.

It's way in the muck.

Let me get my feet up under me.

Ready?

Holy

Is this aluminum?

Yep. Look at the damage.

It just sheared at the end here.

This is an airplane propeller.

100 percent.

Mike, we got it.

This is exactly what
we're looking for. Yeah.

I mean, this is exactly
where Don Tito

said the airplane landed.

You want corroborating evidence?

This is it right here. Yeah.

Is there any other reason
that this propeller

would be out in this lagoon?

None whatsoever.

It's in the lie of where we know
the aircraft came in.

It's an aircraft propeller.

Certainly has been
down there a long time.

We have now found
physical evidence

that there was a plane here,

but that doesn't tell us
what that plane was doing here.

We still
have to get more information

to be able to know
if there were Nazis onboard.

Who could possibly
be on this airplane?

This thing is huge, enormous.

Bob and Nada review the findings
from the field team

235 miles outside
of Buenos Aires, Argentina,

where they have uncovered
physical evidence

of a 1945
emergency seaplane landing

that, according
to a Uruguayan report,

was transporting
Nazi war criminals and gold.

The team scanned the area,
and they found two items.

One was possibly an engine part,

and the other one
is a propeller,

and it's a fairly large
propeller.

It's not off a small plane.

We at least have some evidence
to place the seaplane there.

Now the question becomes
how do we confirm

that the passengers onboard
were actually Nazi officers? Yeah.

Our eyewitness, Don Tito,
told us that the seaplane

had three other planes
accompanying it.

He talked about at least
one of the passengers

having bodyguards.

Who takes bodyguards
with him in a plane

traveling through South America?

None of this makes
any sense at all.

If what the eyewitness
said is true,

this does not sound like
a typical commercial flight.

We don't know for sure
what those other planes were.

Were they there
for deterrent or defense?

We need to see how many more
pieces we can add to the puzzle.

We know this plane
could have landed there.

It begs the question,
who was on it?

We have to separate the myth
from the fact here.

We're coming up to the main
point in Montevideo.

He's right here on the left.

Tim and Mike land

125 miles east of Buenos Aires

where their local contact,
Dante,

has arranged a meeting
with Jose Aldunate,

a man whose father
was one of the first people

to respond to the seaplane crash
in 1945.

¿Qué tal?

Now we know that plane
made the emergency landing

in Laguna de Rocha.

What we don't know is what this
flight was and who was on it.

We need to know about
the passengers onboard

and the cargo
this plane was carrying.

Thanks for taking the time
to talk to us.

Your father was present
during the evacuation?

When they evacuated everybody
off the plane,

what did that look like?

Can you describe to me
what the people look like?

Did they take all the cargo?

Did they take everything
that was in the plane?

They took everything
from the plane.

Right away? Right away.

The commander,
the pilot of the seaplane,

and his father,
they became close friends.

They spent about two days
together fixing the plane

and speaking about
previous flights.

Do you think that the commander
of the seaplane

was working directly
for the Germans after the war

and flying Nazis?

What was the present
that the pilot gave your father?

You have it?

You have the thing that
the pilot gave to your father?

I want to see it, please.

Everything that Mr. Aldunate
tells us is very interesting,

but at this point,
it's all just conjecture.

It's all speculation.

We need some physical proof

to link Nazis
with this aircraft.

What is this?

It's in German. Schwimmweste.

Oh, my God.
Is that what I think it is?

This is a swastika.

The life vest from the pilot
was German-made,

German-manufactured,
has a swastika on it.

This can prove that there
were Nazis onboard that flight.

Did your father ever speculate

as to what he thought
this pilot was doing?

Mm-hmm.

He says that this pilot
flew through South America

where there was
some Nazi communities.

And he would land at
the Paraná River in Misiones?

Yes, Paraná River.

We know that the Nazis
were in Misiones.

This feels
like military barracks.

You could shoot
straight across this.

This is going to give you
an elevated position

to rain down hell.

Another layer of protection
for who is behind it.

He also mentioned the
Atlantic Coast of Argentina

in Santa Cruz and Buenos Aires,

and he mentioned
the final destination,

which is Patagonia.

Do you know what specific
lakes in Patagonia?

That's the lake
next to Bariloche.

So he would fly, and he would
land in the Paraná River,

and he would land in Bariloche

where we know there are
a dense population

of high-ranking Nazis.

Hundreds of Nazis came here
at the end of World War II.

This is a refuge.

We're talking a mansion
40 miles away from anywhere.

Hey, I've found what I think
is a ramp for seaplanes

coming right up to the front
of this property.

This is massively significant,
that this plane could fly

all the way from Europe to here

and then go to Bariloche.

This seaplane and this pilot
were making landings

all throughout South America...
Places that we've been before.

This is not a coincidence.

This was part
of a Nazi shuttle service.

We look at the evidence,

and no individual piece
tells a whole story,

but when you start
stacking them up, they do.

Bob and Nada review the findings
from South America

where the team
has uncovered evididce

that a seaplane
was shuttling Nazis

from Buenos Aires
to key outposts in Bariloche

and the Paraná River
near Misiones.

So the eyewitness tells us
that the seaplane lands.

His father actually
helps repair the plane,

talks to the captain,
who's pilot of the plane,

who tells him this plane went

to some of these other
designated areas

that you've already looked at.

Yeah. All the key areas...

Bariloche, Misiones,
and Buenos Aires,

to me, this looks like Nazi Air.

It was like
a Nazi charter flight.

This is a legitimate way
for Nazis

to be able to travel
within South America.

Yeah.

We are starting to connect

these Nazi facilities

with a way to transport
people back and forth.

I think we found the transportation
system the Nazis used

to get around South America,

and that's a seaplane
leaving from Buenos Aires

into the interior.

You need connections between
the various German areas,

and this seaplane
would give you that.

When we started
this investigation,

it was Nazis made it to some
remote area and hid out.

But now we've got airplanes that
are going around South America.

The evidence is stacking up.

Everything we've seen...
Communications, transportation,

facilities, gold,

they actually have the makings

of a Nazi state
in South America.

The Nazis
really did have a plan.

They were going to flee Europe,

and they were going to start
the Fourth Reich in Argentina.

The question is,
where was the capital?

We know it wasn't Misiones.

It's too remote.

Was it Buenos Aires?

We got to get the team
to find out.

There are still people out there

that do not want
this story told,

so anything that can
actually firm up

this end of the story
would be brilliant.

Tim Kennedy, Gerrard Williams

and their local contact, Dante,

are in Buenos Aires, Argentina,

following a new lead
that could change

the course
of their investigation.

In Argentina, they do not talk
about the Nazis.

There's a wall of silence.

70-something years on
after the end of World War II,

it's still here.

If we're going to break
through that wall,

it has to be handled
very, very sensitively.

The team has secured
an exclusive meeting

with investigative journalist
Héctor Amudo,

who has spent his career

infiltrating Nazi networks
in South America.

Héctor Amudo. Nice to meet you.

He is rumored to have
access to a collection

of never-before-seen documents

outlining the Nazis' escape
through Buenos Aires.

We were told
that you have information

about the movement
of Nazis in Argentina,

specifically in Buenos Aires.

Did you ever get to meet
this informant in person?

Day after that,
he received an e-mail

with some documents
related to the right links.

5,000 documents?

There were migration documents,

and he believes they don't exist

anywhere in the world nowadays.

So there are no public archive
versions of this or anything?

No. No.

These documents may be key
to discovering

how the Nazis actually
operated in Argentina.

It's vitally important
that we get

to the real source
of this information.

That means seeing
the documents for ourselves

and talking to the man
who has them.

What's this man's name?

He cannot reveal his name.

It's paramount that we talk
to him, your informant.

He says he's going to call
and try to convince him.

If we want to see
these documents,

if we want to go and talk
to this informant,

Héctor is our chance.

How'd it go?

Great. Ah, well-done.

There's some conditions,
you know.

There's no showing
of his face. Right.

We agree to those
conditions. Yes.

You know, just tell us
when and where to meet him.

This level of effort
to remain anonymous

means that he could have
groundbreaking evidence

and information
about this investigation.

There's no telling
what this informant has,

but this could break
this investigation wide open.

We have one more turn.

Okay.

In Buenos Aires, Argentina,

Tim and Gerrard's local contact

has arranged for the team
to meet with an informant

who claims to have
in his possession

a large quantity of documents

regarding the movement
of escaped Nazis

through Buenos Aires.

He sounds really nervous,

so we're just going
to have to make sure

that, even though
the cameras are there,

that the cameras feel
like they're not there,

and if he focuses in on it
and gets really shy,

then we have a problem.

There's no telling how
important or significant

this interview could become.

This might give us
actual documentation

of what happened to Adolf Hitler

and other high-ranking Nazis.

Let's do it.

Just keep the camera down.

This is it?

-Hi.

Tim.

Due to the sensitive
nature of his documents,

the informant has requested
that the team

keep his identity a secret.

Really appreciate you taking
the time to talk to us.

We're not going to use anything

that will put you
or your family in jeopardy.

We can disguise your voice.

We can blur your face.

We just want to see
the information.

We understand
that you have documents

that detail the movement
of Nazis in Argentina postwar.

That's correct.

Could you tell us where
you got these documents from,

how u came to get your
hands on this information?

He's a senior party member,
your granddad?

There's an organization
that was founded by major Nazis.

His grandfather,
being part of this community,

received these documents.

Then when his grandfather
passed away,

he found files, documents.

Was there a name for that group?

Die Spinne was operating
in Argentina?

We have investigated
Die Spinne before.

On the 10th of August, 1944,
many wealthy German expats

as well as many Nazi officials,

under the supervision
of Martin Bormann,

met to plan the formation of...

This was a network that could,
with great numbers and ease,

transfer the highest-level Nazis
out of Europe.

His grandfather
was at the center of Die Spinne.

He helped and facilitated

the movement
of high-ranking Nazis,

maybe even Adolf Hitler himself,
into Argentina.

Do you want to see
the accountant's book?

Yeah. Yeah.

The numbers, is that money?

This is $288,000.

Somebody is moving over
a quarter of a million dollars.

Dollars? Dollars.

These are massive sums of money.

This is them counting
every single dollar

of them moving people
from Europe

to Argentina and South America.

Somebody was funding it.

Somebody is financing it
to a huge level, so much money.

What we have in our hands
is a ledger

which details transactions
that pay for the ships

that are bringing the Nazis
across the Atlantic

to their new home
in Buenos Aires.

Do you have any other documents
of specific individuals

about their movement,
how they came here, immigration?

Said we should go upstairs.

Can we see them?

These are all related
to the immigration?

So every one of these
is an individual document

of immigration.

This is a massive amount
of information

and a ton of documents.

In the hopes of finally
setting history straight,

the informant
has granted the team

exclusive permission to review,

for the very first time,

his cache of hundreds
of documents

that have been kept
under lock and key

for nearly 70 years.

What this informant
was showing us is amazing...

Stack after stack
of immigration documents,

and if Adolf Eichmann,
Martin Bormann,

or even Adolf Hitler
is in there,

that changes history.

This is a treasure trove
of information.

This is the Atlantis of
how Nazis are being moved.

So every one of these
is an individual document

of immigration.

In Buenos Aires,

Tim and Gerrard
prepare to inspect

a private collection of secret,
never-before-seen documents

that could shed new light
on Nazi war criminals

moving into Argentina
after World War II.

These are proof of these Nazis
coming into the country.

Yeah.

The potential of what these
documents may contain

could rewrite history.

This could be hard evidence
on paper

of Nazis entering Buenos Aires.

Whatever information we gather,

it could lead us directly
to Adolf Hitler himself.

These are amazing.

I've not seen documents
like this before.

I would like to call a friend
in the archives in Buenos Aires

and see if she can come
and just take a look at these

and tell us they're real.

- No problem.
- Brilliant.

Okay.

It is imperative when you
come across information,

documentation that is
this significant to history,

that it has to be authenticated.

You know, it has to be vetted.

It has to be shown
to be truthful and accurate.

Lucrecia, thank you very much.

Good to see you. Mm, and you.

Tim and Gerrard enlist
the help of Lucrecia Kessig,

document verification expert

from the Argentine
National Archives,

whose extensive knowledge

will help the team
authenticate the documents.

So, these are our documents.

Okay.

Lucrecia
from the National Archive

has been helpful before,

especially in some of
my research in Buenos Aires.

She knows her stuff,
so she'll be able to tell us

whether this mound of
documentation that we have before us

is real and is from the period.

We're going to get
a professional in to tell us.

Okay.

So in your professional
opinion...

Thank you.

What Gerrard and I
have to do now

is go through every single
one of these documents.

We're trying to find
high-ranking Nazis.

We can't miss a single detail.

How many boxes?

We're getting through them.

So 1945, 300,000 people
came to Argentina.

In 1946, 351,000
came to Argentina.

That's a lot of people moving
in and out of the country.

How many of them are Nazis, Tim?

How many of them were fascists?

How many of them were the worst
creatures on the planet?

Some more...

More immigration?
...disembark. Yeah.

Yeah. Immigration disembarks.

Recognize any of these people?

The ship manifest, Tim.
Passenger numbers?

Yeah.

And number 920 sticks out
like a sore thumb.

Last name on the list,
typed in black.

Gregor Helmut, Gregor Helmut,
NN, Gregor Helmut.

Helmut Gregor, Tim,
is Josef Mengele.

And Josef Mengele is one
of the most foul creatures

the world has ever produced,

the camp doctor at Auschwitz,

Auschwitz's Angel of Death.

This is his alias?
This is Josef Mengele's alias?

One of the many he uses,
but it's the first one he uses.

It looks like
it's been added on.

Maybe he's late
to join the ship.

Holy

We know how Helmut Gregor
is actually Josef Mengele,

one of the worst criminals
in the Holocaust,

very, very senior
in that Nazi network

and a man who is being not
just given refuge in Argentina,

but being welcomed here.

We know, after World War II,
Josef Mengele was never caught.

Following Mengele could lead us

directly to Adolf Hitler
himself.

Next time on "Hunting Hitler"...

Look at that light bulb.

Oh.

It is a swastika. It's a beacon.

We now have a hydroelectric
power plant here in Uruguay

that could have been
producing heavy water,

one of the most
important components

to a nuclear weapon
from the Nazis.

The house that you
saw Adolf Hitler...

Look at this fence.

Why do you need that out here?

This could be a perfect
spot for an ambush,

a couple of guys
with machine guns.

Nobody is getting through.

This might be a guard shack.

From this one position alone,

you could almost walk
down this valley.

This is where Adolf Hitler
could stay safe and secure

and live out his old age,

move his plans forward
for the Fourth Reich.
