They were in lots of debt, so borrowed off the Americans. However, the American Stock Market then crashed and America asked for their loans back. Germany did not have the mony so started printing lots of money. however, this meant that their currency dropped rapidly until a loaf of bread was around 100,000 mark and money was so worthless, people burned it as it was cheaper than coal. Also, when a worker got payed, when the markets changed at lunch, half of his salary would become worthless.
