    I am quite sure that that is not who you think it is, just someone from that time period with a very similar hairstyle. A great-grandfather would be my guess.

    Still funny.

      Umm… no.

      I am pretty sure that’s hitler dood

      Step 1: click on the photo.

      Step 2: zoom in

      Step 3: ask Yourself what are the odds that someone has a doppelganger Hitler grandfather

      Step 4: ask Yourself who in their right fucking mind would put a picture/ portrait of their grandfather if he looked just like Hitler…

      Step 5: ask yourself; why would a grandfather who looked just like Hitler; why would he give himself that hairstyle and give himself that mustache … Grandfather must have heard of Hitler… no ?

        Sorry, I’m not saying; that isn’t Adolf Hitler, but your steps 3, 4, and 5 are a bit “eeehhh”.

        Step 3: ask Yourself what are the odds that someone has a doppelganger Hitler grandfather

        In a population as large as ours there is a pretty good chance, that there is someone who looks a lot like Hitler.

        Step 4: ask Yourself who in their right fucking mind would put a picture/ portrait of their grandfather if he looked just like Hitler…

        Someone who doesn’t hate their family member?.. If my beloved grandpa resembled a bad historical figure, that wouldn’t ever prevent me from hanging his picture on my wall. They’d have nothing in common apart from superficial apperance.

        Step 5: ask yourself; why would a grandfather who looked just like Hitler; why would he give himself that hairstyle and give himself that mustache … Grandfather must have heard of Hitler… no?

        When is the picture from? Before the second world war that style of mustache and hair do were fairly common. Doesn’t have to be a grandfather. Could just as well be a great grandfather…

        That doesn’t even look like him though, the only similarities are the hair and mustache.
