In Viktor Frankl's "Mans search for meaning"...?
  • he comments about the people who were sent to the showers and were given a bar of soap...then he says there are many accounts of what happened next but did not mention it himself. ok so WHAT WOULD HAPPEN??


  • OK, between your question and the first answer, what happened was that the people who went in to the "showers" were gassed until they were dead, then their bodies were taken out and (depending on the death camp) burned in huge furnaces, buried in huge ditches that held hundreds of dead bodies at a time, etc.

    Here is an excerpt from an in depth article or paper about his life and many other things...

    In September of 1942, a young doctor, his new bride, his mother, father, and brother, were arrested in Vienna and taken to a concentration camp in Bohemia. It was events that occurred there and at three other camps that led the young doctor -- prisoner 119,104 -- to realize the significance of meaningfulness in life.

    One of the earliest events to drive home the point was the loss of a manuscript -- his life's work -- during his transfer to Auschwitz. He had sewn it into the lining of his coat, but was forced to discard it at the last minute. He spent many later nights trying to reconstruct it, first in his mind, then on slips of stolen paper.
