Reasons Why the Nazis send Jews to the concentration camps and not just kill them on the spot

Reasons Why the Nazis send Jews to the concentration camps and not just kill them on the spot

I know a lot of Jews were shot and killed in their homes and on the streets but there is also a large majority of them that got sent to the camps. Why go through all that trouble if they were going to be killed anyways? I know Nazis used the Jews as a slave labour force too but did they also pull women and children into slavery too? Because if they didn’t, then I don’t see why the Nazis wouldn’t have just shot them outright. 

Feel like I need to declare that I’m not a holocaust denier nor a Neo-Nazi, just genuinely curious why the Nazis chose to commit genocide the way they did. 

Two reasons

First, maintaining cooperation.  They gradually moved the Jews out of their homes to concentration camps and the Jews complied.  If they just started shooting them the Jews would flee or fight back.  

Second, because it was too hard on the people doing the killing.  The Germans had mobile death squads at the start of the war.  When they seized land in Eastern Europe they would have villages line up beside the train tracks and then shoot them all with machine guns from the trains.

Massacring civilians like that in cold blood caused severe trauma to the German troops involved.  So they needed to find a way of doing it that had less impact on the soldiers.

Child kidnapper' jumps off balcony onto car roof - and right into the clutches of angry crowd armed with sticks

'Child kidnapper' jumps off balcony onto car roof - and right into the clutches of angry crowd armed with sticks

Watch The Video 

Out of the frying pan into the fire - man made jump for it after the child's mother snatched daughter back but could only land right in front of furious armed gang An alleged child kidnapper jumped off an apartment block balcony and landing on a car roof in a dramatic moment which was caught on camera. But even then his getaway was thwarted when he ran into a group of waiting neighbours, all armed with sticks. The man, from Foshan in China's Guangdong Province, has been accused of attempting to snatch a six-year-old girl from the building.  It is believed that the girl's mother noticed him in the corridor of the residential building as he tried to grab the child.

The girl's mother immediately fought off the suspected kidnapper and took her child back. During the incident, she managed to capture the attention of the neighbours by shouting and screaming for help. According to CCTV News, after hearing the woman's cries, neighbours shut off the front door to the building to prevent the man from escaping. 

The suspect then headed up to the roof where he attempted to climb back down to ground level. After reaching a second floor balcony, the man launched himself onto the roof of a car. But he wasn't quick enough to outsmart the neighbours, who were waiting at the bottom to beat him with sticks.  Police arrived soon after and detained the man. His family have claimed the suspect has a mental illness. Investigations are still ongoing, according to local media

How the process of an execution by gas chamber, in the U.S., looks like

How the process of an execution by gas chamber, in the U.S., looks like

I wasn’t a pleasant way to die. It had to be very emotional and stressful despite an inmate waiting for the execution for a long time. First, the inmate was sent to have a shower. After the shover he got the clothes. In the past, they often gave a white shirt , black pants to men and a skirt to women. But in the modern era, were inmates executed in a one colour prison uniform. The inmate could have his last call, last meal, and write a goodbye letter. According to many resources, they probably didn’t give to the inmate any shoes after the shower. That’s because inmates in a gas chamber were executed barefooted.

So he had to go the whole way from the cell to the gas chamber without shoes so they often put a carpet on the floor to don’t let the inmate walk on cold concrete as he had bare feet. When they entered the gas chamber, guards strapped the inmate to the chair and asked him to say his last words. Then they asked him if he wanted to cover his eyes. If yes, they covered them. After this, guards left the gas chamber and turned on a poison gas. Inmates were requested to take a deep breath to make the execution fast. Unfortunately, the gas made incredible pain, so it was very common that inmates' bodies shake. After he died, guards took his body from the chair and took off all his clothes. They washed settled gas from his feet and took the body from the gas chamber strapped on a board. After this was the execution over, and the inmate could be buried.

To know some more details, check this video. There are some parts about gas chamber execution:

Reasons why capital punishment was removed from the UK

Reasons why capital punishment was removed from the UK

At one point the United Kingdom had no less than 220 crimes that were punishable by death, and included such monstrous behavior as "being in the company of Gypsies for one month", "strong evidence of malice in a child aged 7–14 years of age," "blacking the face or using a disguise whilst committing a crime," and theft of any object worth more than 12 pence. The law in question was called the Bloody Code. Most of this had to do with the wealthy trying to deter crimes against property, although I'm not sure how executing children for "strong evidence of malice" was supposed to help anything.

Anyway, in time people got sick of it, and Europeans in general were especially sick of executions after the Second World War, when vast numbers of people were legally murdered by the Nazis. In 1950 a Welshman named Timothy Evans was tried and hanged for the murder of his wife and baby daughter, and in 1953 evidence emerged that he almost certainly did not do it (he lived upstairs from the serial killer John Christie, the likely culprit), and this case helped to turn public opinion against capital punishment. Another similar case at the same time strengthened the national sense of revulsion. The number of things for which you could be executed in the UK was reduced and reduced until nothing was left but treason and piracy, and eventually the country dropped those too.

Today the death penalty is banned by the European Convention on Human Rights, to which the UK is a party.

The death penalty degrades everyone and everything associated with it. If misapplied in error, as in the Evans case, it cannot be remedied, and it is either absurdly naive or outrageously arrogant to assume that a judicial system cannot sentence anyone to death in error. The effort necessary to avoid those errors is expensive. If the goal is to remove a dangerous person from society, there are cheaper and easier ways to accomplish the same thing. If the goal is to exact retribution, then we simply descend to the barbarism of earlier years. Today, along with most of the world, the UK recognizes that this medieval practice belongs in the dustbin of history.

The horrific execution of Clayton Lockett by lethal injection this spring in Oklahoma took an astonishing 43 minutes to complete

The horrific execution of Clayton Lockett by lethal injection this spring in Oklahoma took an astonishing 43 minutes to complete. Together with other botched killings, the incident has focused attention on the inexperience and incompetence that now accompanies many executions in America.

 "After he died, an autopsy showed potentially toxic levels of the drug in his system, suggesting he also attempted an overdose before he was executed."  

So he might have done this to himself with the drug reaction issue.  Who knows if it would have been this bad if he hadn't attempted to OD first.  

But if you read about what he did to that girl, he deserved every second of that agony.  He buried a girl alive for shit's sake!

Guillotines have moving parts and require mechanical maintenance and lubrication (plenty of failed beheading by guillotine in France when it was in vogue), they're also needlessly bloody when a bag of nitrogen accomplishes the same goal.

Reasons why death row prisoners executed at Midnight

Reasons why death row prisoners executed at Midnight

I used to wonder why executions were held at or as close to midnight on the date of the death warrant. I did some research awhile back and spoke to several corrections officers and one warden.

Executions are very difficult emotionally on prison personnel and the other prisoners in general. They have had time to get to know these people up close and personal—not about their crimes, but their wives, children and family. In short, they have become humanized waiting for their sentences to be carried out and they will be taking part in ending their lives. During the late hours, the prison is quieter, other prisoners are asleep and locked down. A “rehearsal” is conducted the day before an execution so each person will know his or her role in the process. It is a very sad state of affairs when a life is taken after having known the person for years on end.

When a woman is in the holding cell, it is doubly difficult for the prison. If you recall the woman in Texas may years ago who found Jesus as her savior long before her execution date arrived. She was guilty of the crime, but was no longer the person she was when she committed the crime. It is easier for the person being executed as well as the prison staff to conduct executions during the quietest part of the day—between Midnight and 1:00am. I was allowed to witness an execution in Georgia where the convict was on death row for 35 years.

He was still the monster he was when he committed one of the most heinous crimes in Georgia history by killing an entire family in Seminole County, Georgia with several accomplices. He truly deserved his fate, but I was affected by this experience for many years. It was difficult to watch, but having to participate in the actual killing of another human being was not easy on the warden or his deputies. Still, it was a lot less stressful at Midnight than it would have been at 12 Noon. It isn’t easy to watch another human being die by lethal injection, let alone the electric chair. It haunts me still today

Reasons why France use the guillotine as a method of capital punishment

Reasons why France use the guillotine as a method of capital punishment

Originally? Because it was the most painless way to kill someone. The inventor, Dr. Joseph-Ignace Guillotin, was very clear about his intention to botched and painful executions.

In an era before firearms and pharmaceutical solutions, the quickest way to execute someone was to chop of their head. That, itself, was a nod to civility, as the alternative was something like hanging (which could result in slow strangulation) or other methods that were actually intended to be as long and painful as possible. Beheading might look gruesome, but it’s definitive and it’s quick. (People still argue over whether it’s actually painless or not, but it was clearly as quick a method as they had).

The problem was, you were depending on the skill of the headsman. Taking off someone’s head with a single blow is very difficult, and it wasn’t uncommon for executions to require more than one hit, and end up being unnecessarily traumatic for the condemned.

Now, in modern times, many people would take that as a reason to eliminate capital punishment. In the 18th century, the idea of not executing murderers would have bee considered shocking. But Guillotin was convinced it could be done better, and so invented a machine that would do it, consistently, effectively, and in a single blow every single time. Because it was so effective for this purpose, it was widely adopted.

As for why they continued to use it, the fact is, there are other methods that look cleaner, but none were implemented that were clearly more humane, and certainly none that were more effective. France officially abolished the death penalty in 1981, but their last execution (in 1977) was still by guillotine. What were the alternatives at that point? America, by then, was using the electric chair and the gas chamber, but both were relatively complicated methods which could be (and were) botched, resulting in a gruesome and painful death. 1977 was the same year that execution by lethal injection was first proposed in the US, but even if it had been an established method, it’s once again complex, with a lot of open questions (then and now) about how reliable and painless it actually is.

Bluntly, if you’ve determined that it’s appropriate to kill a human being, I respect the guillotine as a method, because it doesn’t try to hide from the reality. I mean, it’s messier than most methods, and makes an open casket funeral difficult, but it’s efficient, reliable, and likely to be as painless than any other method we’re likely to develop. If we’re unwilling to cut a person’s head off, maybe we should be unwilling to kill them in the first place.j

How scared are people who are about to be executed

How scared are people who are about to be executed

There have been a wide range of emotional responses from those facing execution, from extreme fear to surprising calmness. Some individuals show bravado or acceptance, while others experience panic or seek spiritual comfort in their final moments.

Carl Panzram, a notorious serial killer in the U.S., was caught, tried and sentenced to death.

When the hangman was fitting the noose over his head, Panzram remarked, “Hurry up, you bastard, I could kill a dozen men with my bare hands while you are fooling around.” He was more worried about the safety of the executioner than for himself!

Irma Grese was a female SS guard, and has caused untold atrocities to Jewish and other women in Nazi camps such as Bergen-Belsen, Ravensbruck and Auschwitz.

That awful woman was sentenced to death by hanging by a British Military Court in 1946. Upon execution, she was also recorded as saying to the executioner, “Hurry, please. Hurry.” In a hurry to meet Satan, maybe? But whether Satan would be in a hurry to meet her is another matter…

Irma Grese, the hyena

William Kemmler, the first man to die in the electric chair (in New York in late 19th century), was recorded as saying, "Take it easy and do it properly, I'm in no hurry." If only people were that cooperative in general! The execution was botched, unfortunately. I will spare you the details.

One of the earliest executions on the electric chair

---

James French. who was about to sit in the electric chair in 1966 in Oklahoma, remarked to the reporters present, “Boys, how about this for a headline? French fries.” The traumatized reporters apparently did not take this advice, as the headlines were very sober and respectful the next day.

Danton, a famous French revolutionary, remarked to the executioner even as he was about to be guillotined in front of a baying crowd, “You will show my head to the people, it’s worth it !” To be fair, he was ugly as f—k.

Another female revolutionary, Charlotte Corday, expressed curiosity about the guillotine. She asked technical questions to the irate executioner about how it functioned. As she explained to him, “I have never seen one. I have the right to be curious!” The talkative woman was silenced forever shortly afterwards. The executioner, Sanson, picked up her head and showed it to the crowd. It was said that her eyes and her mouth opened for a few seconds — possibly to ask a final question.

Queen Marie “Let Them Eat Cake” Antoinette, climbed on the scaffold, walked on the toes of the executioner, and said to him, “Please excuse me, Mr. Executioner”. Talk about grace, manners and style…

Execution in public in Paris in the 1930s

Now, for those who were scared shitless.

Hebert, another French revolutionary journalist, was spending his time printing a rag newspaper, Le Journal du Pere Duchesne. He wrote inflammatory articles at the height of the French Revolution, calling for the guillotining of everyone he disagreed with.

His faction lost power, and he was brought to trial. He was sentenced to death, and fainted in the courtroom. In his jail cell, he is recorded as screaming with fear the whole night. In the wee hours of the morning, he kept fainting on the way to the guillotine at the Place de La Revolution, and had to be forcibly dragged, and finally executed.

Edith Thompson was a beautiful woman in her twenties who was sentenced to death by hanging in 1920s England, for the death of her husband, who was severely abusing her. He was killed by her lover, Frederick Bywaters.

Edith Thomson, with her lover Frederick Bywaters on her right, and her husband

Any evidence of complicity was flimsy, and she was executed more for amorality than for anything else. England took a dim view on adultery then.

She was very distraught after being sentenced to death, and spent her days crying hysterically, unable to face the horror to come. Her hair turned white in the space of a few weeks. She was heavily sedated before the execution.

Her execution was horrible: possibly being pregnant, it was said “her insides fell out”.

The executioner committed suicide some time later after witnessing his handiwork. After that time, women who were executed in England had to wear special knickers (panties for our U.S. friends). First, a victim of domestic violence, then a victim of judicial violence!

Conclusions

So what conclusions can we draw from this? Chroniclers record that at the height of the ‘Great Terror’ during Revolutionary France, during which hundreds of people were sent to the guillotine simply for not being revolutionary enough, most people went to the guillotine with calmness, composure and dignity.

If this is anything to go by, it would seem most people show bravery when confronted with death, or if they have time to prepare for it.

Revolutionaries, or people fighting for a principle, seem scornful of their own death. The psychopaths seem to not display any fear. “Professional” criminals also seem to show a lot of contempt for their own execution.

Other psychologically “abnormal” people seem to welcome death as they have learnt that they will never be like other people, and that death will “liberate” them.

It would seem that people who have led a charmed life, or who had a good social or familial life or who have known financial or professional success, in other words, accepted members of society, would show the greatest fear, as they stand to lose everything.

There is a video footage of concentration camps taken by the Nazis before they were liberated

There is a video footage of concentration camps taken by the Nazis before they were liberated

I know this sounds morbid... but I like to learn about history, even when the subject matter covers heinous atrocities like the holocaust. I’ve always been curious about this since the only footage I’ve seen seems to have been taken by the soldiers who liberated the camps (heartbreaking footage of things like the mass graves, piles of shoes, bones in gas chambers, etc) but I feel like this is definitely something the nazis would have documented and while I’m sure they destroyed some evidence of it, I’m doubtful they were able to get rid of all of it. So, does footage like this exist? Where would one who is interested in the history of the holocaust find such films?

Making photos and films of any camps or executions was generally forbidden without permission. Permission was sometimes given, however.

First of all, when the Nazis wanted to produce propaganda.

The Theresienstadt propaganda footage is well known: https://collections.ushmm.org/search/catalog/irn1004141

And Theresienstadt was an officially designated "propaganda camp".

Slightly less known is the propaganda footage from the transit camp Westerbork:

https://collections.ushmm.org/search/catalog/irn1000924

There some of the "permanent" privileged prisoners - such as the "Jewish council" members - were encouraged to organize "cultural activities", which also served for the entertainment of the camp SS, before the camp was converted into a labor camp and all such activities ceased.

Both propaganda reels are sometimes misused by Holocaust deniers, some of whom go as far as to lie that this was filmed in Auschwitz.

If you're interested in the atrocity footage, the closest you can get (aside from the shootings, like the Liepaja shooting of which footage exists, also online) is this only known homicidal gassing footage from Mogilev, where patients of a psychiatric hospital were gassed (not camp footage, but...):

(The link leads to a text analysis, the video is embedded only in the third part and will only play if you click on it.)

http://holocaustcontroversies.blogspot.com/2016/05/german-footage-of-homicidal-gassing.html

It was shot by Arthur Nebe, who conducted this gassing experiment, or someone close to him, and was found in his flat after the war. Nebe liked to film and was high-ranking enough so as not to require a permission.

There was footage of a gassing in one of the euthanasia institutions which probably didn't survive, but we still have the 1942 script by Hermann Schwenninger:

http://holocaustcontroversies.blogspot.com/2016/10/contemporary-german-documents-on-carbon.html#_doc1

> Gas room (cuts to turning on of the valve, gasometer and observation by the doctor). In a hermetically sealed room the patient is exposed to the effects of carbon monoxide gas. The incoming gas is completely odourless and initially robs the patient of their powers of judgement, and then their consciousness. Completely unknown by the patient, without pain and without struggle, the deliverance of death takes effect.

Finally a word of caution should be given about fake footage allegedly from Auschwitz that appears in a Hungarian documentary:

http://holocaustcontroversies.blogspot.com/2017/11/fake-footage-of-auschwitz-birkenau.html

Otherwise you'll have to make do with photos.

Reasons why Eddie Slovik was executed for desertion during World War II while other deserter's sentences were reduced

Reasons why Eddie Slovik was executed for desertion during World War II while other deserter's sentences were reduced

Why was Eddie Slovik executed for desertion during World War ll while other deserter's sentences were reduced?  while watching the American Heroes Channe,  I heard about Norman Cota and went to Wikipedia to learn more.

I came across Eddie Slovik, who | learned was a World War Il deserter through links from Cota's page. As I was readingl I came across this:

Colonel Robert C. Bard of the judge advocates general's office noted that of the 2,864 army personnel tried for

desertion for the period January 1942 through June 1948, 49 were convicted and sentenced to death, and 48 of those sentences were voided by higher authority.

Norman Cota approved the death sentence, and Slovik later, I wrote Eisenhower a letter. Eisenhower confirmed the execution citing the necessity of discouraging other deserters.

So why was only Slovik chosen to be executed? There were 48 other instances of desertion in which the death sentences were voided, which made the higher command follow through with Slovik's execution?

Slovik's case was reviewed several times, firstly by an Assistant Staff Judge Advocate to guide Eisenhower's final decision on clemency for Slovik: 

There can be no doubt he deliberately decided that confinement was preferable to the risks of comba  and that he deliberately sought the comparative comfort of the guardhouse.

To him and those soldiers who might follow his example, if he achieves his end, confinement is neither deterrentnor punishment. He has directly challenged the authority of the government, and future discipline depends upon a resolute reply to this challenge.

If the death penalty is ever to be applied to desertion it should be imposed in this case, not as a punitive measure or retribution, but to maintain that discipline upon which an army can succeed against the enemy. There was no recommendation for clemency in this case, and none is here recommended And Finally, by the head of the Paris JAG (Judge Advocate General):

This is the first death sentence that has reached me for examination. It is probably the first of the kind in the American army for over eighty years - there were none in WWI. In this case, the extreme penalty of death appears warranted. This soldier had performed no front-line duty. He did not intend to. He deserted from his group of fifteen when about to join the infantry company to which he had been assigned.

His subsequent conduct shows a deliberate plan to secure trial and incarceration in a safe place. The sentence adjudged was more severe than he had anticipated, but the imposition of a less severe sentence would only have accomplished the accused's purpose of securing his incarceration and consequent freedom from the dangers which so many of our armed forces are required to face daily. His unfavourable civilian record indicates that he is not a worthy subject of clemency.

By all appearances, Slovik had a fairly brazen plan to avoid combat by getting himself incarcerated for the remaining duration of the war. The army decided that this scheme, if successful, would set an unwelcome precedent for other soldiers to follow if they wished to escape dangerous duties.

JAG lawyers reviewing the case also took account of Slovik's civilian criminal record (though the court martial did not) when determining his suitability for clemency on behalf of Eisenhower (the guy was pretty busy...), indicating that Slovik's past misdeeds (which included multiple custodial sentences and parole violations):

indicate a persistent refusal to conform to the rules of society in civilian life, an imperviousness to penal correction, and a total lack of appreciation for clemency

So, at least in part, Slovik's past caught up with him - the army had actually classed him as unsuitable for the draft at the outbreak of war, due to his incorrigible criminality (and obviously no small amount of stupidity, if I may be frank), but he was reclassified late in the war and called up - probably as a result of a relaxation of standards due to manpower shortages. 

Slovik could have dodged the bullet a number of times, and it's apparent that he did not realize the mortal danger he was in until it was effectively too late. His confession was very foolish, primarily because it demonstrated lucidity of thought, premeditation, lack of remorse, and worst of all, contained a threat to repeat the offending - one can admire his earnestness... but boy, was that kid dumb. In a legal sense he really forced their hand, all the way up the chain, authority figures urged him to destroy his provocative confession note, and when it was too late for that, offered to ignore the whole thing if he rejoined his unit. Slovik stuck to his scheme, and the army declined to blink - he made it into a question of: can a soldier simply decline to fight when he pleases? The process was by no means arbitrary if Slovik had done anything differently (i.e., can the fucking note) his fate most likely would have been similar to many thousands of other deserters/AWOL soldiers.

The True Story Behind The Dark Wizard, HBO's Docuseries About Free Climber Dean Potter

The True Story Behind The Dark Wizard, HBO's Docuseries About Free Climber Dean Potter

On the evening of May 16, 2015, Dean Potter and fellow climber Graham Hunt stood atop Taft Point, a granite overlook thousands of feet above Yosemite Valley. Below them, the valley floor stretched into shadow. Far beneath the jump point was a narrow notch in a ridgeline, the kind of gap wingsuit flyers attempt to thread at speeds often exceeding 100 miles per hour. The margin for error was vanishingly small; so was the time they would have to correct it.

The men jumped. For roughly 15 seconds, Potter, then 43, and Hunt, 29, moved through open air in wingsuits, their bodies held aloft by fabric webbing stretched between their arms and legs. Then both struck the rock wall; neither deployed a parachute.

Both men died immediately upon impact. Hunt, a Yosemite local and Potter’s regular flying partner, had been regarded by those who knew him as a gifted wingsuit flyer, though during his five years in the sport, he remained largely outside the spotlight, known mostly within the Valley’s tight circles. But Potter’s death in many ways had been foreshadowed for years, not simply by the nature of wingsuit flying, among the most dangerous things a person can do, but by the logic Potter spent much of his life pursuing. He was a climber, highliner, and BASE jumper drawn to the place where fear and exaltation began to blur. That tension sits at the center of HBO’s four-part documentary series about him, The Dark Wizard, premiering April 14.

Woman caught on CCTV admits keying cars in Buckie

A woman has admitted keying cars in her Moray hometown of Buckie after footage of the vandalism went viral.

Hazel Innes, 44, scratched the side of three cars while out walking her dog.

One owner, Shona Coull, caught Innes in the act in January after setting up a CCTV camera outside her home. The video was viewed more than 500,000 times after it was posted online.

Innes admitted vandalism at Elgin Sheriff Court. Sentence was deferred for reports.

Ms Coull posted the 23-second video of her white BMW X3 being damaged on social media in the hope that someone would recognise the culprit.

Shocking! Doctor Caught On Camera Beating Patient On Operating Table During Surgery (Photos+Video)

Shocking! Doctor Caught On Camera Beating Patient On Operating Table During Surgery (Photos+Video)

Watch the video 

In what will come across as the highest level of unprofessionallism, a female doctor has been seen beating a patient while on the operating table.

A horrific video has emerged from China of the moment a female doctor beats a patient on the operating table over an alleged dispute about medical bills.

According to Daily Mail, the footage was said to be secretly filmed last September by nurses at the private hospital in Inner Mongolia’s Hohhot as they wanted to expose the doctor’s behaviour. But it wasn’t until March 8 that they gave it to a TV station to be shared among the public.

It was thought that the female surgeon was trying to ask for more money from the patient who was already on the operating table.

In the 60-second video that has been filmed using a hidden camera, the female patient is clearly in distress. She lies on the operation table wearing nothing but a hospital gown as the doctor stands at the end of her bed wearing scrubs looking over her.

It is unclear what she says to the patient before she grabs her legs and slaps her around the head and on her legs.

Out of the view of the camera another person is stood above the patients head holding onto her wrists so that she is restrained form fighting back.

The violence gets a lot worse and the woman grabs her legs and forces them open, another doctor is standing over the patient as she does this.

Helplessly the woman lies there as she is beaten and her legs are forced and held open.

It is unclear from the report why the woman is being operated on, but according to Huanqiu.com she is in the department of obstetrics and gynaecology.

After the video was released on Chinese media it was widely shared. Nearly 52,000 people have commented on Sina.com alone.

Many people were disgusted at the video and disagreed with the way the woman was treated.

One user named ‘Luo Jingwei’ wrote: ‘To discuss the fee with a patient on the operation table with a scalpel is as sinful as robbing her with a knife.’

The report suggests that they are having a dispute over the cost of the surgery with the doctors saying she will not do it unless the patient agrees to pay more at the very last minute, but this is yet to be confirmed.

Kamilla Belyatskaya's pink yoga mat could be seen floating in the water after she was pulled into the ocean

Kamilla Belyatskaya's pink yoga mat could be seen floating in the water after she was pulled into the ocean

Footage shows the final moments of a Russian woman named Kamilla Belyatskaya before she was swept away by the ocean while performing yoga on some nearby rocks.

Aspiring actor Kamilla was on vacation with her boyfriend on the island of Koh Samui in Thailand when she decided to set up her pink yoga mat by the side of the ocean on Friday (November 29).

Kamilla was caught on CCTV footage arriving in a parking lot near the viewpoint shortly before 1pm local time.

She could be seen taking her pink mat from the trunk before walking down to the viewpoint, and images from the scene showed Kamilla visible on the rocks, sitting on top of the yoga mat.

However, by 1:30pm Bo Phut Police received a report that she had been swept away from the rocks. Onlookers saw Kamilla get hit by a large wave which washed her into the ocean, where she struggled to stay afloat.

One man who saw Kamilla struggling is said to have gone into the water to try and save her, but he was unable to rescue Kamilla.

Rescue workers arrived at the scene approximately 15 minutes later, by which time only Kamilla's pink mat could be seen floating in the water.

After 30 minutes, authorities were forced to temporarily call off the search due to the dangerous conditions.

Kamilla was spotted by onlookers as she did yoga (East2West)

Chaiyaporn Subprasert, head of the Samui Rescue Center, drew attention to the danger of the ocean at this time of year.

“During monsoon season, we constantly warn tourists, especially at high-risk areas like Chaweng and Lamai beaches, where red flags indicate no swimming,” he said, according to the Khaosad English. “While the incident location isn’t a swimming area but rather a viewpoint for scenery, the victim may have been caught off guard by the unexpected wave surge.”

Prior to the incident, Kamilla, who was just 24 years old, had described Koh Samui island as 'the best place on Earth'.

Kamilla previously said she 'loved' the island (East2West)

She also posted her love for the scenic spot on the rocks online, writing: “I love Samui so much. But this place, this rocky beach is the best thing I've ever seen in my life. Thank you, universe, for me being here right now.

“I'm very happy. I'm happy!”

After Kamilla was washed into the ocean, her body was found at the weekend approximately two-thirds of a mile from the spot where she had been doing yoga.

"We had a really, really bad scare. I tried to give her some Tylenol and she took a deep breath - whenever I was trying to give it to her and she immediately started choking on it," she told WHNS-TV.

The choking spell sent Kiersten into a panic, and with her dead cell phone in her hand, she ran outside.

"I had her arms and I was just calling for help. She just stopped breathing because she was choking so bad," she said.

Neighbors called 911 and began praying.

Corporal Derrall Foster arrived on the scene and the whole incident was captured on his body cam.

"The neighbors were flagging us down telling us which house it was to go to," he said.

He works with the patrol division with the Belton Police Department.

"She was not blue yet, but she was not breathing. She was very limp. I saw my 2-year-old as if it were her, and I knew we had to take care of the situation," said Cpl. Foster.

"The child wasn't really responding, kind of lethargic. Took the child from them, laid the child face down at an angle and started patting its back," he said.

And just as he heard sirens from an EMS crew, also came the most alarming but perfect sound they all waited and hoped for. Maryelle started crying.

"Oh God, it was very relieving," said Cpl. Foster.

Now little Maryelle and Kiersten are both fine and ready to take on more firsts together.
"I'm definitely so thankful for him and for all the first responders who came," said Kiersten.

She says she is eternally grateful for the heroic actions of the officer who revived her baby
