So basically this guy walks into the exhibition, yells "NO MORE WAR" and rips off the figure's head, because of a bet he had made with a friend of him.
But he says, he's sorry now.

I really lol'd hard. It's kind of bizarre and funny as hell, but I wonder how it feels for the rest of the world?
German government is always concerned foreign countries might think we're still all nazis here - so what do you think?
Should the figure stay in Berlin's Madame Tussauds?
I think it should.
He was an important figure in German history (in a terrible way, but still) and I think seeing him sitting there in 3D makes it very, very real. (First time I saw a picture of the figure, it made me shudder)
A lot of young people here (oh gosh, I sound like my own grandmother) tend to forget that the Nazi regime was very real and not just some boring stuff you have to learn for history classes, so I think this might be a good aim for a study trip.

Opinions?
