Original Indiana Jones
For the first time in his life Rahn met someone even more obsessed with finding the Grail than he was.

In the basement, surrounded by busts of prominent Nazis, was an empty plinth where the Grail would go.
The original Indiana Jones: Otto Rahn and the temple of doom. Truth is stranger than fiction.
