Georg Elser was just an ordinary working-class citizen living in Munich, Germany. He was employed as a carpenter and had spent some time working in a watch factory. That all changed when he took it upon himself, without telling his family or friends, to single-handedly attempt to assassinate the most powerful man in all of Germany: the FΓΌhrer, Adolph Hitler.Elser's plan was centered on the Munich Beer Hall, where he knew Hitler would be making a speech.
