  • What does Hitler sound like to Germans today?

    I've just been watching some Youtube videos about the second world war, and I can speak some German so I listened to some of Hitler's speeches to see if I could understand him. 

    I tried to understand what was so compelling about his speeches that caused citizens to feel so inspired.

    Also I try to imagine what he would sound like in English; probably he spoke with an Austria accent (?), which in the US would correspond to a southern accent.

    Still it's hard to imagine.  So I'm just curious what native German speakers think when you hear him today?  Does he sound like a raving lunatic, or just an impassioned speaker? 

    Do you sense anything obviously wrong with him psychologically by listening to his speeches?  What does he sound like to you??
