Erected in the dead of the night on August 13th, 1961, Berliners would wake up to find they had been divided into two blocs, separated from family and friends. Nearly 4 decades later, East Germans would reclaim their freedom on November 9th, 1989. Since that date, the iconic wall has stood as a global pilgrimage site, calling people from all walks of life to look upon it and wonder.
The Bethke brothers escaped East Germany three different ways: one by an inflatable mattress, one by zip-line, and another by an ultra-light plane!
Although seen as a central symbol of the Cold War, the Berlin Wall wasn’t erected until 14 years into the geopolitical tensions. The fall of the Berlin Wall happened earlier than planned due to a simple miscommunication between the boss of the DDR’s ruling party and his colleagues.
