Mystery of the Twins Solved?
For a long time I have been hearing about the mysterious village of Candido Godoi, where there is a highly abnormal rate of twins, and where most of the twins are born fair-haired and blue-eyed. This article advances a fascinating (and horrifying) theory as to how this came about.
His task was to carry out experiments to discover by what method of genetic quirk twins were produced – and then to artificially increase the Aryan birthrate for his master, Adolf Hitler. Now, a historian claims, Mengele's notorious experiments may have borne fruit. For years scientists have failed to discover why as many as one in five pregnancies in a small Brazilian town have resulted in twins – most of them blond haired and blue eyed. residents of Candido Godoi now claim that Mengele made repeated visits there in the early 1960s A former mayor and town doctor, Anencia Flores da Silva, set out to try to solve the town's mystery. He interviewed hundreds of people, and discovered one character who crept on cropping up: an itinerant medic calling himself Rudolph Weiss. "Nobody knows for sure exactly what date Mengele arrived in Candido Godoi, but the first twins were born in 1963, the year in which we first hear reports of his presence," he said.
