  • You must had lived in West Germany/Berlin to be able to cross.

  • @JUSTforwhitlisting Yes I lived in West Germany and went for a weekend to West-Berlin

  • 1. Which way were you going?

    2. Which side of the Berlin Wall was the Reichstag on?

  • @UnitedCommunists The Reichstag was in the west but directly at the wall. I was heading form West to East

  • Ist das der Reichstag am Anfang

  • @wkaemena Yes that's correct. Reichstag is only 50 meters away from the Brandenburg Gate, and still they were in two different countries.

  • i'm so sorry i should have subscribed earlier :) I watched some of you videos...very good...it must be difficult to recollect the way things were before...but your efforts are already very well done and very helpful to many people i'm sure..i would like to try someday to revisit Germany

    and compare 1988 W Germany to modern unified Germany...that would be awesome. You must get the same feeling of some satisfaction :) i'll def check out your videos :)

  • @tmmy773 I filmed some of my recollections from various places as I tried to find what I remembered - often without much success. I put them on my channel which may be of some interest!

  • @alanheath That's really great you went to Berlin. I really wish i had gone back then must have been awesome. Berlin must have been nice in those days..a mix of liberality and mystery that doesn't exist anymore. Now is all status-quo At least i've been to pre-euro W Germany...with Deuchmarks..Munich was very cool and fun..my cousin and i went to some seedy bars in Frankfurt...they served me no prob even though i was only 16...very cool and no trouble or anything like that :)

  • @Universal1Cadete the Crossing the Berlin Wall in 1988 was taken by me with my Sony Camcorder in 1988 so yes it is my property.
