A Nazi cameraman was present at the opening of the Ark of the Covenant at Geheimhaven, Aegean Sea in 1936 as part of the German forces commanded by Colonel Herman Dietrich French archaeologist René Emile Belloq and Major Arnold Ernst Toht.

Geheimhaven
In 1936, the German soldier was among those present at Geheimhaven, Aegean Sea following the Nazis' discovery of the Ark of the Covenant in Tanis, Egypt, under the command of Colonel Herman Dietrich French archaeologist René Emile Belloq and Major Arnold Ernst Toht.

After capturing American archaeologist Indiana Jones, the Nazis prepared to open the Ark with a Jewish ritual performed by Belloq. The cameraman set up his camera and equipment at the side of the group of soldiers. After being surprised discovering only sand inside the Ark, the soldiers were utterly shocked with the sight of several ghosts emerging from the ancient relic. However, these ghosts weren't the last surprise. Soon, the ghosts started screaming wildly at the Nazis, and giant bolts of electricity came flying suddenly from the Ark, impaling and killing soldiers left and right. This soldier and his fellow soldiers were all killed by the Ark, the cameraman being consumed alongside all of his equipment, before their bodies were all pulled into the relic afterwards.

Behind the scenes
The cameraman was portrayed by an uncredited performer in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
