There was always that claim that Hitler and Eva were aboard one of those German submarines that were still operating after V-E day, the last of which did not surrender until late August of 1945, after Japan's surrender. One of those submarines is suspected of torpedoing and sinking an Allied ship in July of 1945.

Given the condition that he was in during the months leading up to his supposed suicide in 1945 at the age of 56, even if he had escaped Berlin, I doubt that he would have lived much past 60.
I for one don't entirely discount the idea that he escaped, it does have some merit to it, but these ideas of him going to South America and dying at a ripe old age are fairly far fetched to say the least. There was a popular theory going around some time ago that he died in Argentina in 1989 aged 100.
An Australian author named Fred McKenzie wrote a couple of books back around the 90's which suggested that Hitler escaped to Spain where he died in 1947 - if he did escape, which is questionable enough in itself, then at least that sounds a tad more realistic.
Cheers,
Adam.

There's a book called Grey Wolf that I purchased not too long ago which claims both Adolf and Eva Braun escaped and made it to Argentina.
I don't know how accurate the book is (I haven't had a chance to read it cover to cover) but It does seem interesting and I have always wondered if the Fuhrer did in fact leave Berlin.
Just so you know, it has been proved that the jawbone in a museum located in Moscow, long thought to be Hitler's, has been conclusively proven to not be from him.

Chancellery bunker
This German link offers some good photography on the Chancellery bunker. Found it some time ago, and would like to share it with you guys, just in case it was missed.

I seem to recall they found grotesque murals depicting Nazi supermen, that looked like they'd come straight out of a Superman comic.

Superman Comics were the creation of two Jewish cartoonists or comic book artists or whatever the hell you call them....I dunno.
What I do know is that they wisely used me as the model for their legendary comic book.
