READ THIS \/ \/ \/ \/ \/ It's a corrected version of the earlier post.
Auschwitz was opened in May 1940 and closed in January 1945.
It was fully operating between early 1942 and late 1944. Around 1050 days.
To achieve the 1.1 million deaths figure, it would have to burn, bury or dump around 1000 bodies a day on average.
Germans could have done it with ease in Auschwitz - they had 5 crematoria throughout the history, around 3 working constantly.
There were over 50 ovens in the whole complex. 2-4 people fit in one oven (2 stacks of 2 people arranged horizontally alongside the trolley). The fire was up constantly - people operating gas chambers and ovens - Sonderkommandos (composed of prisoners who were supposed to get killed shortly after) slided the trolley out, cleaned it from remains, put the next bodies and slided it in quickly. They mixed the fatter people with the malnourished and adults with children. You needed around 30 kg of coal for one person, so for 2 people you needed 60 kg, for three 90 kg, for four 120 kg of coal. Multiply 30 kg by 1,100,000 and you get the amount of coal needed for Auschwitz to burn over a million of people - 33,000 tons. That's pretty much nothing - just in the beehive ovens in the Pittsburgh area in the United States, from 1870 to 1915 they produced 18 MILLION tons of coal. We can safely assume that the total coal production of Germany was several million tons a year too then. With this data, 33,000 tons is not even a few percent of the whole amount of coal. All of the fuel came from the surrounding mines, and that wasn't any difficult at all - Auschwitz was placed in Silesia.
There were also open-air fire pits where Jews were burned.
>b-but in normal, civil crematories it takes 2h to turn a person into a pile of ash!
Yeah - in normal crematories... (https://www.hdot.org/debunking-denial/ab4-civilian-ovens-comparison/)
As in the link - it takes around 2h to burn one person in a coffin COMPLETELY to ash. It's supposed to be aesthetical and clean. To burn a more malnourished person to bones and ashes though, it takes around 25 minutes. First evaporates the water, and then the flesh gets fried fairly quickly.
Now, we can check the math.
1000 ppl a day/50 ovens = 20 ppl a day for one oven
20 ppl a day = 1 person burned every 50 minutes BUT because there were multiple bodies in one oven, we can say that in 50 minutes, they burned from 2 to 4 people (mostly 2).
It's worth mentioning that according to people who actually were there and experienced it, that number could be higher. One of those is Witold Pilecki, a badass soldier who deliberately got himself to Auschwitz and, after organizing a conspiracy organization within the camp, he managed to escape it along with a few other people in 1943. He wrote down a report the same year he had escaped, called Witold's Report (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Witold%27s_Report). In this document, he estimated that Germans could burn as much as even 8000 bodies a day.
According to German authorities though, in some period from 1943 to 1944, when all of the crematoria were functioning, they could burn as much as 5000 people a day (350 in Crematorium I, 3000 in Crematorium II and III, and 1600 in Crematorium IV and V).
My estimate is this: the lowest they could get is 500 bodies on one day, the most is 4000.
So with all this evidence, how can you be against the notion that over 1 million people died in Auschwitz? What do you have?
>where are the remains
Most of it - in air. What was left of those poor people - mixed with earth long time ago to turn into humus.
>b-but there are no photos of holocaust!
I beg to differ - look at picrel (massacre at Babi Yar).
