Fritz Harper was a man with a complex history. He developed a method to synthesize nitrogen from the air, which helped increase food production. However, he also used nitrogen to make explosives, which were used in World War II. He later created Zyklon C, a poisonous gas used in warfare. Despite the negative consequences of his inventions, he was promoted and celebrated. His wife and son were deeply affected by his actions, and both eventually took their own lives. Fritz carried on without remorse, enjoying his time with high-ranking officials. This story highlights the complexities of defining a person's character. What makes a person who they are? How do we define this? Well, you can't really just call someone evil, because by the time you do that, you're just kind of done with the man. Then you just kind of toss him out. So, we have some CFO that happens to have quite an interesting history. It makes him rather hard for you to say good, bad, evil. We're in the middle gray zone. This happens to be about a man named Fritz Harper, which happens to be the man that also makes the way how we synthesize nitrogen out of the sky into the soils of the ground that makes the food grow as well as it does, which is what is used to make, well, 90% of the people on the Earth right now. Or not 90, 50% of the people on the Earth right now. But, he's also the man that made mustard gas and also Cyclones C and B, which, as history would tell us, was, well, one of the most horrific things to ever exist in man and has ever since been used for plentiful amounts of war crimes and other unfortunate tragedies. Fritz Harper had one of the most largest problems... ...problems... ...problems... ...problems... ...problems... ...problems... ...problems... So, Fritz Harper had one of the most largest problems facing his country at the time. They had more population than they did have food growing. The population was rapidly growing faster than it. So, he looked on as they inserted experimenting ways to make more food grow. And along came one of his amazing breakthroughs. A breakthrough that literally allowed him to make bread from the air. Or, well, so people say. What it was, is that he took the nitrogen out of the sky and synthesized it in such a way that it was able to be put in a form, per se, that could be applied to plants. Which, well, made them grow a lot faster and better. But, with this breakthrough, nitrogen was also the chemical that he could use to make explosives. When World War II came around, he offered this up to high command. And so they used it. And with him using this from high command, these explosives essentially helped fuel the war. So, with these explosives helping fuel the war, he later could also use these gases, or, well, Zyklon C, that he made into Zyklon C, that was like this pesticide chemical. And he had this large quantity of that. As the war started to bomb down and trench warfare does what it does, and starts to become a game of skirmish and tug and pull, he offered this up to high command. High command thought it was an idea, but also felt like it was plain dirty. The officers didn't like it. But with no one having to ask, he did it by himself. He organized a squad, or a group of men, at the time. He was an officer, and he organized a squad with a whole bunch of chemicals, or, well, mustard gas, and brought them up to the front lines. And at, I believe, 6 p.m. in the morning, at this very bloody town, hard fought over, one of the most hard-fought places of the war, had, at 6 p.m., had the gases released. And with the gases released, there was this giant wall of gas that would slowly approach and approach. And it was like this really thick cloud. There was birds falling out of the sky. The plants that were touched by it were covered in this metallic-like color. The grass shriveled up and withered away. No, actually, the plants were shriveled up and withered away. The grass ended up covered in this metallic-like color. And as the grass, or as the gas approached, at like a meter by meter a second, or that's what people average it out, or, well, no, a meter per minute, as the gas entered the trench line, soldiers started to begin to convulse, puke. It was as if the gas was causing them to drown. Those who could leave, those who were still able to breathe, lived, turned purple, and had a very enjoyable future ahead of them with their newfound illnesses. And it worked. It was a significant breakthrough. But Fritz, Herbert, Wischi, the Germans were prepared to use it more effectively than they were. And they were in the worse than they could have had more of a breakthrough in it. So, with this new invention, he was later promoted to captain. And all he thought it was a great time to celebrate. He thought it was a great time to celebrate. And so he did celebrate it. I haven't been able to find anything to support that he did celebrate, but some people did say he threw a party, celebrated. His wife hated it a lot. And when he found out more of it was going to be used, she begged him not to do this and not to continue with this. But, so he did. And one day while he was sleeping, wife took his service sidearm, walked outside, and shot herself. And so did the little boy saw this as well. He was quite frightened and later moved over to America, where he later in the years killed himself as well. And so, well yeah, the little boy killed himself, but I believe he left some offspring. And so, and so with the, Fritz Herbert didn't find this like stunning or anything. He just kind of carried on his day. And he got to enjoy the rest of his time hanging out with high up officials, governors, as he, as they, as this young secondary Jewish boy had a lovely time being here. And there wasn't much, wasn't much of anything. And this was before the trade from Kaiser Wilhelm to, what was it? Adolf Hitler happened and the Nazi party and how that came along. So folks, this is where I'm ending it right now. I'll be finishing this later and yeah, see you then.
