Nazi gloves made of human skin displayed at WWII museum in Kiev

From what I can tell, the Nazis must have used some really thick skinned Jew. Or maybe it was all made up.

These are a pair of gloves on display at the WWII museum in Kiev. They were made by the Nazis while they occupied Ukraine. The gloves are made of human skin. Disgusting, right?

From the comment section:

The nazis must have been completely mental to think this was ok.

lol

This is the museum. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Museum_of_the_History_of_Ukraine_in_the_Second_World_War Note it down for your next trip to Ukraine.

I'd be prepared to pay for a DNA analysis to refute that claim.

Anyone know whom to contact at that museum to get the ball rolling?

Any thoughts on how to capitalize/generate any positive publicity?

Well assuming it's from human skin. Who says it was "made by the Nazis"?

Excellent point!

So, first get them to prove that the gloves were made by Germans, then insist on the DNA analysis.

Any other ideas on this topic???

They look like normal leather gloves to me can't believe people can look at them and see how thick they are and think they are human skin.

They are obviously fakes you can probably just pick them up and just smell the leather.
