In Berlin, I had the chance to learn more about the division of Germany and the Berlin Wall. It was strange to think all this had happened so recently.

I went to a museum that detailed ways people had tried (successfully and unsuccessfully) to cross the Berlin Wall. Here are just a few:

• jump out a window
• bomb holes in the wall
• hide inside a loudspeaker box
• forge a passport
• hide inside a welding machine
• dig a tunnel under the wall
• hide inside a car engine
• rig up ropes and pulleys
• hide inside two suitcases, side by side
• wear a fake police uniform
• hide inside a plastic cow
