Funny story, really. Hermann Goering, Hitler's second-in-command and leader of the Luftwaffe (German Air Force) was supposed to be Hitler successor in the event of his death, but Hitler removed him from that position shortly before his death. Here's why.

Between April 20-29th, Hitler was beginning to lose his mind. He knew that Germany was to lose the war. He could feel every Russian and American shell land above his head outside Berlin. Hermann Goering had the audacity to suggest to Hitler that they should consider surrendering to the allies. This caused Hitler to fly into a rage. In this fit of rage, he rewrote his last will and testament and removed Goering from power, instead subbing in Karl Donitz, the leader of the Nazi Kriegsmarine.

This was probably a huge mistake for Hitler - Goering probably would've continued the war effort with a clear mind and a new perspective, but Donitz surrendered to the allies just 7 days after the Fuhrer abandoned his people.

Like I said, funny story.
