Albert Einstein (14 March 1879, Ulm, Kingdom of Württemberg, German Empire - 18 April 1955, Princeton, New Jersey, United States) was a German-born theoretical physicist who developed the theory of general relativity.
Albert Einstein was born in Ulm, in the Kingdom of Württemberg in the German Empire on 14 March 1879. On 30 April 1905, he completed his thesis. Einstein was awarded a PhD by the University of Zurich. In 1921, Einstein was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics. Because relativity was still considered somewhat controversial, it was officially bestowed for his explanation of the photoelectric effect.
In 1933, Einstein decided to emigrate to the United States due to the rise to power of the Nazis under Germany's new chancellor, Adolf Hitler. He took up a position at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, New Jersey. Einstein became an American citizen in 1940.
He died in Princeton Hospital in the morning of 18 April 1955, at the age of 76. During the autopsy, the Princeton Hospital's pathologist, Thomas Stoltz Harvey, removed Einstein's brain for preservation without the permission of his family. Einstein's remains were cremated and his ashes were scattered at an undisclosed location.
In Downfall Parodies[]
Einstein - who is also a Jew - is mentioned in only a handful of parodies.
In Hitler Rants Parodies' Hitler Rants Parodies: The Beginning and War of The Hitlers, it's been shown that Einstein attempted to erase the C&C: Red Alert Hitler from his timeline. Although it appeared he succeeded, he actually transported him to another universe, and thus the Downfall Hitler was born.
Because of this, it's considered Einstein pulled the biggest antic on Hitler, possibly beating Fegelein.
When Hitler planned to invent warp drive, Jodl told Hitler that Einstein said travelling faster than light is not possible. Hitler was greatly angered by this.
