Episode Transcript

(00:32):
October 1944.
Deep beneath the mountains of Germany.
SS General Hans Kammler gives the order.
Begin the test.
Scientists pull away a heavy tarp,revealing something that shouldn't exist.
A massive bell shaped devicethat defies gravity, reduces
living tissue to black sludge,and makes clocks run backward.

(00:52):
Then, in May of 1945, both the deviceand the general vanished without a trace.
Today, we're uncovering the mysteryof Hitler's most impossible weapon
and the terrifying experimentsthat may have torn holes.
In reality itself.
But by the time we get to the end,you'll realize
maybe that's not the end.

(01:14):
I'm Carol Ann.
Welcome to The InBetween.
don't.
We're going to do something
a little bit different this time around,but for very good reason.
By the end, you'll know why.
Today's story is just that.
A story, but one based on the question,

(01:37):
“What if?”Like every other story on this channel,
it's based on eventsthat are purported to be true.
And we'll get to the factsin just a moment.
But the story itself is a dramatizationbased on eyewitness testimony.
So let's take a momentand crack open our history books
so we can put this testimonyinto perspective.

(01:58):
We're going all the way backto September 1st, 1939.
Germany invadesPoland, kicking off World War Two.
And for the next four years, Hitlerpretty much just steamrolls over everyone
until the tide startsto turn in favor of the allies in 1943.
That's when he turned up the heaton what the Germans called Wunderwaffen,

(02:18):
or Wonder Weapons.
He's looking for anythingand everything that can help him
turn the tide back in his favor,no matter the cost or how crazy it is.
Two of the many peopleassigned to the multiple ongoing projects
are two physicists, DoctorWalther Gerlach and Doctor Ernst Schumann.
Gerlach has a backgroundin nuclear research

(02:39):
and magnetic fields,while Schumann is an explosives expert.
Around that same time, Hitler launchesProject Riese, German for giant, which,
from what we can tell, was a projectto create a series of underground
hidden bunkers in and aroundthe Owl Mountains of what is today Poland,
just a couple of miles northeast ofwhat is now Czechia or the Czech Republic.

(03:03):
Seven known complexes,including Ksiaz Castle and Rzeczka,
were partially built using forced laborfrom concentration camps like Gross-Rosen
about 30 miles to the north, resultingin thousands of deaths.
As the Soviets are closing in on the OwlMountain area in the spring of 1945,
the Germans blow up their tunnelsalong with anything that's inside.

(03:27):
Once Hitler is dead and the Germanscry uncle, the mop up begins.
One SS officer named Jakob Sporrenbergeris caught in Norway, extradited
to Poland, interrogated by the Poles,and evidently has quite a story to tell.
And even though he was hanged in 1952for the numerous atrocities

(03:47):
he oversaw,his testimony has never been declassified.
Fortunately for us, someone in Polishintelligence did read that testimony
and shares it with the journalistand World War Two author named Igor
Witkowski, who, in 2000, publisheshis book “Prawda o Wunderwaffe”, or
the “Truth about Wonder Weapons.”
Some of the surrounding details arethen fleshed out just a year later

(04:11):
by a guy named Nick Cook when he publisheshis book, “The Hunt for Zero Point:
Inside the Classified Worldof Anti-gravity Technology.”
And with that little lesson in Germanwar history,
I present to you the following story.
The people are real.
The places are real.
So as you're listening, just ask yourself,

(04:33):
“What if?”
October 1944 Lower Silesia, Nazi Germany.
At midnight beneath the Wenceslasmine, inside a concrete bunker
that doesn't exist on any official map,Nazi Germany's most secret experiment
is about to begin.
Inside the chamber, SS General HansKammler stands silently with his arms

(04:56):
crossed.
The tarp covered device before him isunlike anything else built during the war.
This isn't a rocket or a bomb, it's
something that makes both look like toys.
Floodlights hum overhead, castingharsh shadows on concrete walls.
A small team of physicists and engineerswait nervously for Kammler's order.

(05:19):
Some have been working on this projectfor two years.
Others arrived just weeks ago.
None of them fully understandswhat they have built.
Kammler finally speaks, cold and precise.
Begins the test.
Two lead scientists, DoctorWalther Gerlach
and DoctorErnst Schumann, approach the tarp.

(05:40):
Their hands tremble slightly as they gripthe heavy canvas.
They have run calculations for months,
but calculations mean nothing now.
They pull the tarp away.
What stands beneath is knownonly by a codename, Glocke.
The Bell.
The device is enormous,roughly 12ft tall, nine feet wide.

(06:02):
Its shape mirrors a large ironchurch bell, but the surface is smooth,
metallic,and faintly etched with Reich insignias.
The metal itself seems to absorb lightrather than reflect it.
Thick cables snake across the floorand disappear into the machine's
core like veins,feeding a mechanical heart.

(06:23):
From behind a thick radiationshield, the team initiates the sequence.
Doctor Gerlach’sfinger hovers over the activation switch.
He looks back at Kammler one final time.
Kammler nods.
Gerlach flips the switch.
Inside the bell, two massive cylindersbegin rotating in opposite directions.

(06:45):
Within them, a glowing purplishmetallic liquid that costs
the Reich more than an entire Panzerdivision to produce.
Codename Xerum 525.
As the cylinders accelerate,the air itself changes.
The hum of machinery deepensinto something almost alive, a vibration

(07:06):
that seems to come from everywhereand nowhere.
Static charges the room.
One technician glancesnervously at a gauge.
The needle climbsfast, faster than it ever has before.
And then the impossible begins.
A blue violet light erupts from the bell'ssurface.

(07:28):
Tools on a nearby workbench liftan inch off the table,
hover for a moment,and then clatter to the floor.
DoctorSchumann pulls out his pocket watch.
The hands are moving backward.
Another assistant shouts, “Mein Gott,”
and shields his eyesfrom the unearthly glow.
But what happensnext makes everyone in that room question

(07:51):
everything they think they knowabout reality.
Inside the test chamber,the subjects - lab rabbits,
potted plants, even a small steelrod - aren't just killed.
They are gone.
Not vaporized, not burned.
Reduced to a black, oily sludge

(08:12):
that drips from the tableslike melted tar.
The radiation alarms screams.
One techniciancollapses, blood streaming from his nose.
Doctor Gerlach immediately slamsthe emergency termination switch.
When the bell powers down, the blue light
fades to purple, then to nothing.

(08:32):
A heavy silence settles over the chamber.
The only sound is the soft dripof what used to be
solid matter hitting the concrete floor.
Kammler steps forwardand looks at the destruction.
His face shows no emotion.
Doctor Gerlach's voice shakesas he weakly reiterates
to Kammler what everyone in the roomjust saw with their own eyes.

(08:55):
The field held for 60swith anti-gravity effects
and possibly temporal displacement.
Kammler nods very slowly.
Good.
Very good.
Then he turns to stare at the teamwith the intensity
of a blade's edge,and warns them to say nothing to anyone.

(09:17):
Not to Berlin, not to Der Fuhrer,not to their wives.
No one.
The room goes dead silent.
Everyone understands.
This isn't just a threat.
Doctor Schumann hesitates, then pointsat a technician lying motionless
on the ground, a victim of the highradiation burst, and obviously dead.

(09:41):
Kammler doesn't even look at the body.
Our sacrifices will be rememberedin the Reich's victory.
He turns and walks out, his bootsechoing off the concrete walls behind him.
The silence isn't just fear.
It is awe.
They have built something that breaksthe fundamental laws of physics.

(10:04):
But as Kammler disappearsinto the corridor, none of them realize
they have also built something that soonbreaks free of their control entirely.
By April of 1945, the war is nearly over.
Allied forcessweep across Europe like a flood.
But deep in the tunnel complex beneaththe mountains,

(10:24):
the bell experimentsnot only continue, they intensify.
Kammler, now overseeing the final phase,goes even more secretive.
Scientists who ask too many questionsare reassigned to the Eastern Front.
Others simply vanish in the night.
The remaining teamworks in absolute silence,

(10:46):
knowing their lives depend on the results.
In a steel cradle on a freight platform
sits Die Glocke, strapped down with chainsthat can hold a locomotiv.Silent,
but still exuding a sense of menace.
Nearby, a freight elevatorwaits to descend even deeper underground
to levels that exists on no blueprint.

(11:08):
A handful of officers and scientistsstand before Kammler in the dim light.
Emergency lanterns cast dancingshadows on the walls.
Above them, they hear the distantrumble of Soviet artillery.
The situation is beyond dire.
Every person in that roomknows that the clock is ticking,

(11:29):
with only hours remaining.
Kammler's voice echoesin the concrete chamber as he makes it
clear to everyone that the bellwill not be left to the Soviet.
If they can't evacuate it,they destroy everything.
SS Brigadier Jakob Sporrenberg stepsforward, his gaunt face grim,

(11:51):
letting Kammler know that the chargesare set throughout the complex.
The entire facility can collapseat the General's command.
But Doctor Gerlach, despite everythinghe's witnessed, has one last
desperate idea.
What if we activate the bellat full power?
Not for testing. For escape.

(12:13):
Kammler's eyes glint in the lamplight.
For the first time in weeks,he almost smiles.
He waves his hand toward the handfulof junior scientists and technicians
huddled near the elevator.
In a gesture understood by all.
Clear the chamber.
Sporrenberg steps forward
and herds the group through the door, outinto the hallway to the elevator.

(12:35):
But as the heavy steeldoor closes behind them,
a series of sharp gunshots echothrough the tunnels.
Doctor Schumann's face goes pale.
He looks at Gerlach and then, at Kammler.
The calm resolve he sees on their faces
translates to a wave of understandingthat overtakes him.

(12:55):
There can be no witnesses
Inside the chamber, only Kammler,Gerlach, Schumann, and two guards remain.
The final test team.
And this time,they aren't just testing the bell.
They're betting their lives on it.
Everyone in the room scramblesinto their protective suits one last time.

(13:15):
Cables are connected with shaking hands.
Doctor Gerlach runs through the checklist,his voice barely above a whisper,
and Kammler stands once againat the bell's control panel,
his hand resting on the master switch.
Above them, the booming of enemyartillery fire gets closer.
Much closer.

(13:36):
Kammler pauses for a moment,the gravity of which can be felt
by everyone, and mutters,For the fatherland.
driving the master switch downwith the force
of a man who has nothing left to lose.
The moment the switch engages,the bell comes alive
with a terrifying, uncontrolled force.

(13:59):
Doesn't just activate, it erupts.
The device lifts off the ground,rising nearly three feet into the air
as if gravity simply forgets it exists.
Arcs of white blueelectricity dance off its surface
and lash at the ceiling,leaving smoldering scars in the concrete.

(14:19):
The entire chamber vibrates
like the epicenter of an earthquake.
Doctor Gerlach and Doctor Schumannduck behind the radiation barrier,
their eyes wide with a mix of terrorand fascination.
The gauge needles don't just climb.
They bury themselvesat the very tops of the red zones.
But Kammler doesn't move.

(14:42):
He stands directly in front of the belt,bathed in crackling light,
staring into the vortex of energythat is his masterpiece.
His hair stands on end,his uniform smokes,
but his eyes never leave the device.
The energy grows unbearable.

(15:02):
The chamber trembles so violently thatchunks of concrete fall from the ceiling.
Instruments on the wallsdon't just malfunction, they explode.
The very air seems to tear apart.
And then comes somethingnone of them expects.
The bell begins to sing.
Not a mechanical hum,but an actual harmonic tone.

(15:26):
Beautiful and terrifying,
The sound penetrates their bones,their minds, their souls.
Doctor Schumann begins to scream,but no one hears him over
the cosmic symphonypouring from the machine.
Then comes the blinding flash.
A shockwave rips through the roomthrowing Gerlach

(15:49):
and Schumann against the back wall.
The steel doorbuckles. The lights explode.
And for a momentthe world goes completely white.
When their vision clears and their earsstop ringing, the bell is gone.
The massive steel cradlethat holds it is empty.
Only a perfect circleremains on the ground.

(16:09):
Not scorched,but somehow polished to a mirror finish.
And, Kammler...
Kammler is gone, too, along with the twoguards who stood closest to the device.
DoctorGerlach whispers through blood caked lips.
“It's gone.” Doctor Schumannbegins to laugh,
a quiet, disbelieving, hysterical soundthat echoes off the walls.

(16:34):
The bell isn't destroyed.
It didn't explode.
It simply stepped out of reality.
Sporrenberg bursts into the roomfrom the hallway, weapon
raised,expecting to find bodies and wreckage.
Instead, he freezeswhen he sees the empty cradle.
“Vo ist es?” Where is it?

(16:54):
No one answers because there is no answer.
Sporrenberg looks around the chamberat the polished circle where the bell was,
at the two surviving scientists coveredin dust and blood, at the impossible
emptiness where Germany's greatest secret
had existed just moments before.
And grimly, he gives the final command,“Everybody out.”

(17:19):
As soon as Gerlachand Schumann are back on the surface
and feel the rumble under their feet
from the detonation of the chargesthroughout the underground complex,
the realization of what just happenedsettles over them like a burial shroud.
The bell is gone.
Not stolen,not destroyed, not hidden, just gone.

(17:39):
And with it, perhaps
the last hope of the Third Reich.
Vanished into whatever liesbeyond the edge of reality.
When Soviet forces stormed the complexthree days
later, they find only rubble and silence.
Tunnelscollapsed with mathematical precision.
Entrances sealed with enough explosivesto level a city block.

(18:02):
The few documents that remain are eitherincoherent technical notes
or list of names,which most of them are already dead.
No bell, no Kammler, no witnesses.
What they find isa mystery wrapped in concrete
and buried under tons of cement rubble.
American
intelligence hears whispers from capturedGerman soldiers, fragments of stories

(18:26):
about a bell shaped machinewith impossible effects.
But nothing concrete emerges.
The allies eventually chalk it up to Nazimyths created in desperate times.
What they didn't know -what no one outside
that bunker knew - is thatsomething happened in those final moments.

(18:48):
Something that isn't possibleaccording to any known laws of physics.
Something that would echothrough time itself.
So did this story really happen?
I don't know.
I know that Sporrenberglived to tell the tale.
Was he lying?
Making up some fantastictale in a bid to create one last epic

(19:10):
myth in honor of his beloved,imploded Third Reich?
Maybe.
I do know thatKammler really did disappear.
Maybe he actually saw the writingon the wall
and disappearedto Argentina with so many of his comrades.
But what if he didn't?
What if this is not the end of the story?

(19:30):
In fact, I propose that it's not -
that there is more to the story yetto be told.
Remember at the beginningwhen I said that the story
is going to be a little bit different?
Well, to hear the end of the story,I want you to click right here
and go over to my friendMike's channel, Mr.
E Files, right now, where he isall set with the second half

(19:54):
of this double featureexploring the question,
What if.
Be careful out there.
And I will see youhere again, on The InBetween.
