This is assuming he’d have been found guilty for leading the Nazi government like others were.

Edit: of course it would likely be death, but was wondering what specific means of death would have been carried out for him.

    It’s not though. The question makes the assumption that he would have been handed over for the Nuremberg trials.

    It absolutely misses the point, and so have you. It is a hypothetical whereby he was captured, turned over to the Nuremberg trials, and found guilty. That’s the basis of the hypothetical. Saying that wouldn’t have happened absolutely misses the point of the hypothetical.

      Well in the unlikely event that he did turn up at Nuremberg, he’d be hanged just like the top ranking Nazi officials were.

      But if Hitler was captured, there’s a slim-to-none chance he’s living to even see that trial, much less attend it.
