The lie I told Nazi death camp doctor 'Angel of Death' Josef Mengele that saved my life at Auschwitz

IVOR Perl was just 12 years old when he came face-to-face with notorious Auschwitz doctor Josef Mengele, who was known for the sick experiments he carried out on Jewish prisoners.

The young Jewish boy had been torn from his home in Mako, Southern Hungary, and taken 270 miles to Auschwitz – and his fate was now in the hands of Mengele, who decided with the point of a finger on his white-gloved hand who would live and who would die.

27th of January marks the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz –the largest of Nazi Germany's extermination camps – where 1.1 million people lost their lives.
Ivor Perl, 87, lost all but one of his family in the Holocaust.

Here, he shares his story of survival from a year spent inside the Nazi regime's extermination camps.
