A specifically horrific experiment was the twin experiments. This experiment was performed by Dr. Joseph Mengele and several of his assistants in Auschwitz.

However, it was his experiments, including the injection of dye into the patient’s eyes and operations on twins for research, that led to him achieving a place in history for crimes against the moral order. The intention of the experiments was to further understand human genetics and use the information to make the “Master

In the camps, people were dehumanized. They were treated like animals, and hurt. Sometimes they were even put through unethical treatments and medical experiments.
