Escaping East Germany: Swimming Across the Spree into West Berlin in Video

Описание к видео Escaping East Germany: Swimming Across the Spree into West Berlin in Video

It was a warm Sunday in August 1988 when a group of tourists visiting Berlin caught something unexpected across the Spree River. People were escaping East Germany.

It was August 21, 1988, and four people decided to risk their lives crossing the Spree River in an attempt to escape East Germany in the hope of freedom in West Berlin. Three men and a woman risked their lives, and watching it today made everything look like a distant event in the past, but that was Berlin at the time.
