I found this story today and found it quite interesting.  Did Doctor Mengele's (Nazi) experiments to find the key to producing blond-haired and blue-eyed Aryan twins really work?  He was working on creating a master race for Adolf Hitler.  It sure sounds like it if you read this.



The Twins from Brazil: Did Nazi doctor Mengele - the Angel of Death - cause twin surge in South American town?By Caroline Grant

A notorious Nazi doctor known as the 'Angel of Death' is behind an alarming number of twins born in a small Brazilian town, a historian has claimed. Josef Mengele was an SS physician in Auschwitz concentration camp where in a bid to create a master race for Adolf Hitler he carried out genetic experiments to find the key to producing twins.

The aim was to artificially increase the Aryan birthrate. In 1945 he fled the advancing Red Army and made his way to South America. It is there that the medic, who is believed to have been responsible for up to 400,000 deaths in medical experiments at Auschwitz, may have succeeded in his mission.
Baffled scientists had been struggling to come up with a reason for the high proportion twins in the tiny Brazilian town of Candido Godoi - most  of  them blond-haired and blue-eyed.

A staggering one in five pregnancies there have resulted in the birth of twins - the usual rate is one in 80. Argentine historian Jorge Camarasa has now come up with an astonishing theory. In a new book, Mengele: The Angel Of Death In South America, he has pieced together the Nazi doctor's later years after his flight in the face of the Red Army advance.

This is a interesting story, it has to make you wonder a bit.  What are the odds of this happening on it's own without human intervention??   Qu
