Steffen Henssler sparks controversy with Hitler parody in YouTube video

German television chef Steffen Henssler has sparked controversy following a YouTube video in which he used a kitchen brush to mimic Adolf Hitler’s mustache and imitated his voice.

While preparing a rib eye steak, the 53-year-old chef used a black brush on his upper lip and performed a parody of Hitler’s speech, including a rolling ‘R’. The video has drawn significant criticism from followers, who described the content as “tasteless,” “unbelievable,” and “insensitive.” Some commenters expressed shock that the video remained online, while a small number of viewers defended the chef, suggesting that German history can be a subject of humor.
