I don’t know about height and weight, but here are some other interesting Hitler “facts” **Vital Stats** : 35-30-32 **Likes** : Rainbows, kitty cats, long walks on the beach, and cuddling. **Dislikes** : Mean people, injustice, and scary clowns **Turn-ons** : world domination, oppression, and jack boots Seriously, I can’t see any possible use for this information, especially weight which can varies over time. Various uncredited sources list his height between 5’7" and 5’9" and 130-140#. This thread will probably disappear shortly. ---

War tune sung by British troops (think of the normal tune of that “Sound-off…1, 2” marching song soldiers use) Hitler’s only got one ball; Goebells has two but very small; Himm’ler is sim’lar; and Goering has no balls at all. I think this was taken from one of the Straight Dope books, for which I wish to credit Cecil. If it was not, it was at least taken from one of the books I read (similar to the Straight Dope). So basically, I did not find it on my own. ---

I always heard that, although people found him attractive at the time, he wore a size 16 dress. So he would’ve been considered fat by today’s standards.
