Who is playing the young Hitler in the court scene and when he is yelling about the wheelbarrows and such, he sounds and looks just like Robert Carlyle but that can't be him he looks way to young just want to know for sure who this is driving me crazy.

Oh! lol, right
Okay, that's because his scenes in TGSNT are actually clips from: "
Hitler: The Rise
of Evil
" TV mini-series (2003) where you
can
see him credited as, of course, Adolf
Hitler. Link below

YW.
Yeah, I started to watch that (Rise) but I dunno, it looks like it's probably going
to be pretty one-sided - especially with a title like "The Rise Of Evil" - maybe I'll
watch more of it some other time. I'd only just gotten to the point where AH has
volunteered to carry messages (WWI). -

"Ripped off a myriad of sources", implies that he didn't provide credits. There is an entire section devoted to the credits, which could have been formatted better, but they WERE there.
Furthermore, this is essentially a 6 and a half hour YouTube documentary.
Everyone uses other sources and images to illustrate their point because they're working with virtually no budget. They are working their arses off with a pile of research, their computer, and their video editing software.
There are worse films (cough Zeitgeist cough), that rip off images without credit, and the actual "factual" credits (some which aren't factual at all) are predominantly theosophists. Nobody bats an eyelid.
I've also seen this done in GOOD youtube documentaries, with varying degrees of crediting, depending on whether the footage falls under a general "fair use" notice at the start.
It would have stayed a 6 and a half hour YouTube documentary, if the people there (and on Facebook, and Video, etc.) hadn't shat themselves and banhammered it.
