TRIUMPH OF THE WILL:

Rallies were well documented
as propaganda by film maker
Leni Riefenstahl, such rallies were attended by hundreds of thousands of faithful.

Did you know that the rallies were even covered live by the new medium of television along with radio and newsreels footage.

CATHEDRAL OF LIGHT:

Anti-aircraft searchlights were used an idea of Albert Speer, this gave an impressive image at the rallies. Using over 150 searchlights pointing skyward, that could be seen for miles.

ORGINAL NIGHT STALKER:

Adolf Hitler always the center piece of the rallies deluded delusions that the party faithful wanted to hear. Within twelve years, the Third Reich would crash down upon them.

I'M DER FUHRER AND I SAID SO:

Hitler even coined "Swift as
a Grayhound, as Tough as
Leather, and as hard as Krupp's Steel" the rallies even generated over 50,000 Hitler Youth, and the crowds
went into a frenzy and was electrifying.
