What were the chances of people dying in the Holocaust?
To survive in a Camp, you had to forget tomorrow, you had to forget your family, or your past. Think of NOW, nothing else, and unless you were picked for death when on a parade, or died from disease, or lack of food, you might, just might, live until tomorrow. People who thought about tomorrow, or their past, or their families, died...they just died, sometimes for no real reason such as being beaten by the guards. They died because their 'spirit' was broken. They 'thought' too much. You had to keep your spirit, your humanity, you had to accept what was going on around you, and think of NOW.
How many Jews were exterminated by Germans?
We will never know exactly, but in the neighborhood of six million Jews were murdered by the Nazi regime between 1935 and 1945. Please note that even MORE people who were NOT Jewish were murdered by the Nazis; "Gypsies", homosexuals, communists, pacifists, and other people who disagreed with the Nazi government. The total number of victims (not counting war casualties) was probably close to 15 million. This sounds like an incredible number, but the Soviets murdered twice as many of their own people, and there were probably 50 million or more victims of the Communist Chinese government.
What happened to adults in the concentration camps?
Once they arrived at the camps the people were separated into groups. Men and women were separated and many couples never saw each other again. They were tortured, treated like slaves and prisoners, murdered, experimented on, beaten, and made to lived horrible lives where they were starved, freezing, and made to watch each other die.
