Werner Karl Heisenberg (5 December 1901 - 1 February 1976) was a German physicist. Between 1942 and 1945, Heisenberg headed the Kaiser-Wilhelm Institute in Berlin and was one of the fathers of the uranium project (Uranprojekt), with the aim of developing German weapons.
In 1942 General Gero Kramer and a SS detachment, including Otto Hammerstein and Eddie Gorm , visited the institute to show his support for the project. Kramer praised Heisenberg the day of his arrival in his welcoming speech to an audience of scientists and soldiers. But after a while, Gorm, actually a double infiltrator, took the scientist hostage, threatening to kill him with his Luger pistol if the soldiers did not let them leave the room. Isolated in a room, Gorm interviewed Heisenberg on the uranium project and he confessed that it was only a cover for the real project that was well kept in Norway , in the Vermok powerhouse , project called "Die Glocke". While Gorm had a second of inattention, Heisenberg took the opportunity to break a glass laboratory utensil on his head. Then the soldiers burst into the room and Gorm was forced to flee [2] .
