What happen to the boy in the movie Downfall? Biography?

[powerpoint1]

I've been pondering about what happen to Peter Kranz, the boy featured in the movie Downfall. I've been able to track down a historical biography for most of the people who were with Hitler during those last days in Berlin, I found biographies on the generals and so on. but i would really like to know what happen to the boy (Peter Kranz) who was credited for taking down two tanks? And was featured in a archive video of Hitler's last days handing out Iron Crosses to hitler youths. Anyone have a biography or info of him? thanxs

I think the Boy is fictionnal.
I believe he just represents the naivety of the Hitler Youth fighting gallantly for their country.

Tha little boy with Hitler awarding him the EKII is no fiction. That was a scene from one of the propaganda newsreels.

This is the orinal photo of that footage in april 1945.


I don't know what happened to him, but the scene was real.
