In this episode, Jeremy shares his original piece of the German Berlin Wall and discusses the Rise and Fall of this monumental wall.
Professor Jeremy Patrich, (The Backyard Geographer) welcomes you to another exciting episode from Out of The Collection! He has been diligently cleaning up in his garage and is very excited to share some of the items he is rediscovering from inside his private collection. Being an eclectic collector for most of his life, you just never know what to expect.
Fun Fact: Did you know that the Berlin Wall was actually two walls? The 27-mile portion of the barrier separating Berlin into east and west consisted of two concrete walls between which was a “death strip” up to 160 yards wide that contained hundreds of watchtowers, miles of anti-vehicle trenches, guard dog runs, floodlights, and trip-wire machine guns. Also, more than 100 people died trying to cross the wall, most were shot, suffered fatal accidents, or committed suicide after failed escape attempts across the Berlin Wall.
A special thanks to YouTube for the great music and thank you to my Director, Producer, and Editor Nicole VanBroekhuizen.
