Edited sentence: ) and that they would simply kill an inmate if they didn't like the shape of their nose.He also claimed he was forced to swim in blood at Buchenwald, that there was a rail line from the creamatorium to a pond at Auschwitz to dispose of the ashes (no railway was found), that there was an underground tunnel to the gas chambers, that Nazi camp guards got bonuses for every Jewish inmate they killed (.He also claimed that the Nazis made the inmates wash themselves with Soap made from Jewish victims fat, which even Yad Vashem (Israel holocaust memorial society) claims is a hoax through DNA testing.He has provided several stories for the death of his father, including dying of exhaustion on a death march, beaten to death, and dying in bed of starvation.He is also the originator of the now popular quote claiming he over heard Hitler and Goebbels talking about how the gassing stories would be too incredible for people to believe, that they would dismiss it as a hoax.He is the sole provider of this quote, he claims to have over heard them speaking while he was at Auschwitz.His sister and mother probably did die in what is now known as the Holocaust, but Mermelstein is obviously an unreliable witness and it is appauling to the memory of Holocaust survivors that people like Mermelstein exist to provide fuel to people like the IHRs cause.Mermelstein wrote and lectured about his experiences in Auschwitz prior to the IHRs offer of a reward to anyone who could 'proove the holocaust'.The fact that Hollywood portrayed this story in a TV movie is even more ridiculous.The kicker is that the names of his sister and mother were identified on a Nazi transport list 5 months after he claimed to have witnessed their gassings.This is when he appears to have 'remembered seeing his family gassed' because prior to their offer, he didn't mention it in any lecture or writing
