observation before the experiments
every day the twins were taken into a room where they would have to sit naked and be observed. the "doctors" would take note of every single part of both twins body parts and document them. they would take photographs and measure their arms, legs and every part they could and compare the twins measurements. -
medical experiments: blood
blood was taken from the twins and the got shots in the arm that was not touched yet. in very small children blood was drawn from their necks -
experiments: eyes
drops or shots of chemicals would be put in their eyes to try to turn the twins eye colors to blue. This often caused severe pain, infections, and temporary or permanant eye sight damage. -
experimental injections
they would be injected with a series of shots in their eyes, spine, arms, legs and buttox. the shots caused a severe amount of pain diseases were purposfully given to one twin and not the other. -
surgeries
without anesthesia organ removal, castration, and amputations occured daily. -
The final experiment
if you and your twin were lucky enough to make it through the experiments this process began all over again the next day, if you died Dr. Mengele used your body for furthor research and killed your twin to do the same.
