There are lots of theories that lay claim to the idea that Hitler went to South America in some capacity, but this one takes the cake in the "wishful thinking" department.

This conspiracy theory presents the idea that, after making his way into Argentina, Hitler was able to nab room at a luxurious Argentinian hotel, which sounds like something a Nazi Wes Anderson might like to turn into a film. The hotel in question, The Eden in La Falda, Cordoba, was at the time owned by Ida and Walter Eichhorn, who were said to be close friends of the former Fuhrer. Once, he even sent them a Mercedes-Benz as a present.

Noam Shalev, one of the men behind this theory, said: "We will never know the truth. But there is enough evidence to build an alternative theory about what happened to Hitler.€ Which sounds an awful lot like he knows that the idea is completely nuts, no?
