The first Boys From Brazil: Nazi graveyard discovered deep in the Amazon rainforest

A graveyard of former Nazis bent on creating a 'foreign Fatherland' in the Amazonian rainforests from which to spread Hitler's maniacal beliefs has been discovered in Brazil.

The relics betray a madcap plan back in the 1930s to create a master race thousands of miles from Germany.

The graveyard and other ruins that fanatical Nazis left behind are chronicled in a new book.

Entitled ’The Guayana-Projekt. A German Adventure on the Amazon’ it says die-hard Nazis believed they were destined to settle the world like pioneers of the wild west in America.


Discovered: Crosses mark the graves deep in the jungle


It has long been known that Nazis wandered post-war into the remote regions of South America, befriended by fascist governments and military dictatorships.

The 1978 film Boys From Brazil told a of a bizarre plot to clone Hitler that was hatched by Joseph Mengele in his jungle hideout.

But the harshness of the Amazonian jungle was a strange choice of destination.

FULL story at link.

8. No, but Lindbergh settled on the still-remote southern shore of Maui...
... to live out the last years of his fascist life.

9. and I'm suggesting that he'd prefer being buried with like-minded people.

Charles Lindbergh's Grave



Palapalo Ho'omau Church Cemetery,
Kipahulu
Southeast Maui

The famed aviator, Charles Lindbergh, lived his last days on the lush Hana coast. Today he lies at rest on the serene grounds of the Palapala Ho'omau Church in beautiful Kipahulu. The limestone coral church was built in 1857. Lindbergh's grave is under the shade of a Java plum tree. Before he died, he sketched a simple design for his grave and coffin.


May he rest in Piss.

13. My intitial thoughts, too.
From the photo, it looks as if the site had a caretaker or something.

60+ years in the jungle and still standing?
