The only known recording of Hitler in a regular conversation.

I ran across this video and found it pretty interesting. Hitler is being recorded while he's having a normal conversation with Finnish leader Mannerheim in a train car in June of 1942 without any of the ranting he does during his speeches. The Finnish sound engineer taped it and was supposed to destroy it but he didn't. Sounds like a normal person and talks very matter factly about the war. He sounds more intelligent than I thought he would be since he comes across as a screaming lunatic in his recorded speeches. The tape recording starts at about 3:43 into the video.

Very interesting...
He was no dummy and I read he use to practice his speeches in front of a mirror
Drugs and ego did him in well that and a bullet
Sounds normal to me
They talk about war like we'd talk about a hunting trip.
Wow. I did not know that existed. Hitler has a deeper voice than I had imagined.
I do find it odd that the guards did not confiscate the tape and destroy it on the spot.
There is also a video on UTUBE that shows the tremors in his left hand. Presumably from Parkinson's or some similar disease. He tried to hide it, and this video is supposed to be the only video that shows it.

Thanks for sharing, Smitty500mag. This reminds me of the 2 or 3 versions of hitler where current events are substituted for the original event but the whole thing was just actors. (I think) The last one I saw pertained to the clinton loss in 2016. I think it's time for a new version.
the youtube videos are actors the fellow who portrays Hitler has done a lot of them based on current events a bit exaggerated but he and his team are good at it I heard once he got a lot of bad feedback but must have got thru it as just making fun of Hitler not promoting him
Thanks for your new post Ditch-Runner.
