Greetings from Germany
MrWissen2Go is great. Such a good source that can be trusted and delivers it in a good way.

I hear a similar phrasing from a lot of moms of that era that "their first marriage was cool, the birth of their kids made them feel proud but the best moment in their life was the day the wall fell"..I think that speaks volumes
My mother doesn't remember it - but I was 7 at the time when the announcement came in the radio. Of course at this age I didn't understand anything about the situation, but my mothers utter confusion/disbelieve must have been so strong, her face that morning burned into my brain.
FunFact: Both at the beginning and the end of the Berlin Wall was a strage press conference.
2 Weeks before it was build there was a press conference and the only female journalist in the room asked about rumors to close the border, to which the big hat answered: "Nobody has the intention to build a wall.", likely the most famous sentence in German history. Please have a good look: He was asked about "closed borders" and answered with "wall".
And for the end of the wall another famous sentence was cause: "As far as I know... without delay, now", when asked for the opening of the borders for travels. It wasn't meant as "today" (it was already evening) or without papers, but tens of thousands gathered at the border, until the border guards decided to just open it, before they get crushed by the masses.
And more importantly, it wasn't meant for travel. The opening should've made it easier to permanently leave the country. I imagine the government hoped, that the people who demonstrated for weeks at this point, would leave and they would gain control over the country once more.
What I find remarkable is that the journalists understood this. There was little to none reaction.
But the people at home, who were watching the news, they didn't hear "If you want to, you can now get permission to permanetly leave the country". They heard "If you want to, you can now visit the other half of the country".
3:03 Oh, S**t, we infected Ryan.
That was primal, german sarcasm.

„Wissen“ means knowledge, so MrWissen 2Go means Mr Knowledge 2Go.
Terra X is a brand of the ZDF (German public broadcaster). They mainly broadcast documentaries about history, science, nature and archeology.
My Grandparents sometimes tell me about the Todesstreifen and how they were driving past there with a car to visit some family across the wall and how incredibly eery it was and how long it felt to pass by it. There were always people holding guns at them and it was very stressful since they always tried to bring something nice to eat that was not allowed there.
There were people who tried breaking through in an upgraded and armoured bulldozer. They didn´t make it, why I don´t exactly know, but I think, because the guards shot at the motor, and thus paralyzed the dozer. Another Story are the madlads who built a tunnel in berlin and got around 20 people to west berlin, before they got ratted out. Or the story of the guys who used a homemade baloon, and crossed the border along the east see coast.

I grew up on the inner-German border. My place of residence was so close to the border that we also had a wall about 1 km long. In front of the wall there was a "restricted area" about 5 km wide into which only residents with a special pass were allowed to enter. There were barriers and border policemen who controlled it. Visitors had to be announced in advance and were then checked by the State Security (Stasi). It is perhaps comparable to the gated communities in the USA.
Outside the village there was no wall, only a fence made of fully galvanized expanded metal. This was manufactured in neutral Switzerland and cost half a billion marks. I still have three of these fence elements in my garden as compost bins for garden waste. The "Swiss quality" is so good that the metal does not rust to this day.
lol
The town I am living in now is also just on the outside of the restricted zone, and the stories when people wanted to geet in or out (either living there or wanting to visit family or friends that lived there) are sometimes hilarious and often a bit dangerous.
"Outside the village there was no wall, only a fence made of fully galvanized expanded metal."
Well, multiple fences to be precise. It was also a full-fledged border installation, just like the Berlin Wall, sharing most of the features explained in this video. Basically just the concrete parts were changed to a fence made of fully galvanized expanded metal.
Normal fence, guard towers, obstacles for tanks, signal fence, ditches, mine fields in sand strips, self-firing systems and the famous Swiss-made fence as final obstacle.
The restricted area also was "only" 5km long in the final years of its existence. It was originally a larger area for most of the time, which was later reduced to this size.
@Ryan, as a german who lived within 20 miles of the east german border, i have always just laughed at Trump's plan to build "the wall". Now you know why. This is the level of construction and manpower, weaponry and equipment necessary to keep people from crossing a border they really want to cross! If you look at the border between South and North Korea, you will see the same level of effort. There is no appetite anywhere to finance a border fortification to this level, and put 10s of thousands of armed border guards there forever to make it work.
Hi Ryan, it might be interesting for you to look at: The mistake that toppled the Berlin Wall.
There is a link in the description to suggest videos, it feels like he doesn’t read a lot of comments 😅
The Berlin wall was only a very small part of the "Iron curtain" between east (middel) and west part of Germany.
the escape attempts were manifold.
In the beginning people walked through the sewers and through subway tunnels.
Jumped out of the windows of houses that were right on the border.
A border guard threw down his weapon and jumped over the unfinished border installations.
People use trucks to damage the first border installations and then escape.
swam across the river, climbing over barbed wire.
A popular means was to dig tunnels from east to west and from west to east.
The start and end point were houses near the border. The excavated earth had to be hidden in the houses.
Even the intelligence agencies dug tunnels to tap into the Other Side's phone lines.
A civilian Interflug aircraft was forced to land in West Berlin instead of East Berlin.
Homemade hot air balloons were also a means.
Concealed in vehicles, in the trunk, behind the dashboard, with false floors...
The list of escape attempts is long.
Some got through, others bled to death in the border installations.
The last possibility was a holiday in Hungary and going to the west German embassy there. Maybe get a West German passport there.
Or at the "Peace Picnic" where Hungary opened the border fence to Austria. The borders between Austria and West Germany were open.
Another possibility was human trafficking. The GDR often captured people who wanted to go to the West. After a few months, these were then sold to the West for hard currency. But it was never certain who was being sold or who was just being folded or get long prison sentences.
But there were few in the other direction. The terror organization RAF went into hiding in East Germany and traveled to West Germany to launch attacks. These were searched for a long time in West Germany and finally almost all of them were found.
Angela Merkel's father was a pastor and went to East Germany voluntarily.
A prominent pediatrician had worked in Cincinnati. But he was a socialist and had to leave the country. He had the Austrian passport but he went to East Berlin voluntarily. There he significantly reduced infant mortality. He even retained the freedom to travel and had a comfortable life in East Berlin.
The rights of the Allies provided that Americans, Englishmen and Frenchmen could drive or fly from West Germany to West Berlin unmolested. These could also move between West and East Berlin without controls.
So the restrictions only applied to Germans.
The concentration of spies must have been highest in West Berlin. But that was also true in West and East Germany.
Next to them the people smugglers trying to get people from the East.
But also merchants who had goods produced cheaply in the East in order to sell them dearly in the West. Women who offered themselves, certainly not just to have sex but to find out something. And then there are the Eastern Secret Service companies in the West, maybe a freight forwarder. they then tried somehow to get information or direct spies.
Even in the West German government spies were exposed.
American, English and French military, all doing secret things on the side. Then the Soviet secret service, which certainly had its fingers not only in the East.
Much of this later became known or never came out
Yes, some families also chose to move to the DDR to stay with their families. I was born in East Berlin, my mom was from Vienna, Austria and my parents fell in love when my dad had to work in Vienna. His job was part of the DDRs chemistry department/company and he worked together with the diplomats. He and his first wife and kids lived in multiple countries for many years Egypt, Finland, Austria,…
My mom chose him and therefore to move to East Berlin, giving up her highly paid job and having to live the typical DDR „lifestyle“. The Stasi spied on us until the Wall fell because they feared she was a spy, it shattered her because the spies were our neighbors and basically like my grandparents. There are some amazing stories I could tell.
My father was born in Brandenburg in the former GDR. His stepfather was an opponent of the regime and he was persecuted , thank god the family had managed to flee to West- Berlin in time before the wall was built and they could live in peace. Many families were separated in West and East Germany. A sad chapter in German history.
In the early first few days and perhaps weeks of the Berlin Wall, there have been cases ofTrucks crashing through the Wall just to escape, - people were jumping out of buldings - the facedes and rooms of which were part of East Berlin down to the street below - which was in West Berlin whilst east german authorites were bricking up the windows a couple of floors down .......in later years people would dig tunnels under the wall and escape that way ..all in all harrowing scenes to watch ...but from a historical point - quite interesting to watch............
Mr Wissen can be translated to Mr knowledge
I was there live with my 9 years. we traveled immediately to relatives in West Berlin unbelievable how great the stores were. An old lady even gave me 5 DMarks as a gift.
Many forget that West Berlin was within the East Zone/GDR and therefore had no uncontrolled route into or out of West Germany.
The actual fortified border was 1400 km / just under 870 miles long. Today it is part of the "Green Belt" a nature reserve along the former border and border fortifications between East and West, stretching from the Arctic Ocean in Norway to the Black Sea (12500km/7767 miles)

Automatic guns and landmines were on the border between East Germany and West Germany proper, but not around West Berlin.
My Uncle and Dad somehow left Dresden to come to Australia - I have never know how they did it, and watching this makes me wonder even more 😢😬🫤
I'm certainly grateful that they did it though! I remember watching the fall of the wall in primary school and feeling so relieved!
Many people went through the Czech Republic to Hungaria or Austria and then just drove whereever they wanted. Some just used the bureucratic way and asked to leave, that was one valid option.
Almost all major cities around the world (that wanted to) got a piece of the wall..
i like the idea of a terrible deadly wall now being spread all around the world, connecting the world
if anyone is in BErlin, check out the wall museum/memorial at BErnauer Straße.
Its amazing..
and a bit of the death strip including the wall is still there (without the mines and guns of course)
I used that channel to study for every history exam I had in school, up until my Abitur where I had history as a main subject (Leistungskurs)
you have to watch a video about the berlin airlift. for this we germans are greatfull till today
Between 1961 and 1989 it was estimated that about 141 people died trying to get to freedom. The majority, shot by guards, some by accident and some suicides.
I lived with the wall for 29 years in West Berlin. I dissolved in tears when it finally disappeared.
auto translator error: "Geschichte" can mean story, but more likely, and definitely in this case "history".
Something to know: when Walter Ulbricht said "Nobody has the intention to build a wall" it was the first time anybody mentioned a wall in/around Berlin and it is to this day unclear if the government of the GDR just lied or if they just were uncertain about if a wall will be built (but it is more likely that they were uncertain)
Ryan if this is is “unbelievable” then you should follow up on what Texas is doing at their border.
Wissen = Knowledge
the i is pronounced short. In german every vowel before a double konsonant is short.
Fun fact: Wissenshaft = "knowledgeship" or knowledge craft
Such an awful time period separating familes 😢 An other thing : Ryan you are so funny trying to listen to the foreign language and reading the subtitles 😂; that's what we do all the time unless we know the spoken language as well...
A good way to learn languages 👍Our foreign movies are not dubbed ( except for kids ) . 👋Greetings from 🇫🇮
My respect! You have chosen one of the best history Channel ever. Mirko (MrWissentoGo) is one of the best historic experts ever! Very good choice!
Terra X is a high quality documentary and science tv series which goes on for more than 3 decades, I grew up with it :)
There were endless creative Escapes. Absolutely crazy, what they came up with.
„it‘s just a wall“ 💀
🤣 your iraq quote was everything in that moment
My sister has a part of the wall she chisled out herself. She happened to be in Berlin at the time people just stromed the wall and started to dismantle it with every tool they got their hand on.
Mr Wissen = Mr Knowledge ...
My Mother together with my grandparents managed to escape from East Germany on August 11th, just two days before the wall was built. My Grandmother was Austrian, born in Vienna. She still had a brother and sister in Vienna and managed to get a visa for Austria to visit her siblings with her whole family. They already knew that it’ll be a one way trip. So they sold everything they owned in secret, piece by piece. On August 11th 1961 they took a train from Erfurt to Vienna, officially it was a return ticket, but they never went back. On August 16th my mom’s uncle drove them to the West German border at Passau, were they registered as escapees. My both uncles, who had escaped East Germany years before, picked them up from there and brought them to Fulda. And that’s where she met my father. The rest is history, as they say…
I remember, as a child, we were staying at the Border to East Germany. It was in a rural area with farm land. We could see the people working on the field. We waved at them and one person on the east side, waved back. In the next second a boarder guard were standing next to the person. I helieve this person was in lot of trouble. This burnt in my brain and as young as I was, I remember.😢😢😢
And AFAIK I think the reason the people thought it was opened was because of a misunderstanding of what one guy said to the press
yes, but the guy had gone home after that adress, and had absolutely no idea of the consequences that it triggered.
Glad to see you can laugh at this video.
You can slow the video down in the settings to have more time to read, process & react to it if you wan't to.
Funnily, I'm thinking: It was just there for 28 years? I'm German, born while the Wall was already standing, and growing up, it seemed it was there and will be there forever. That's why it was so impressive when it came down.
'It's just a wall' might be the knowledge of most americans 🤦♂️🍻
It means "Mr Knowledge to go" and terra X is part of a tv channel
Some recommendations about how GDR citizens tried to escape: czcams.com/video/bctt2LDpl7I/video.html (DW Documentation), czcams.com/video/vOyoGKNKedI/video.html (Weird History reports about the spectacular escape with a hot air balloon)
There were also some villages divided by the border between West and East: czcams.com/video/GyIqn7kwJ7Y/video.html (DW Documentation 20 years after the fall of the wall), czcams.com/video/Xtp11VrI5w0/video.html (DW Documentation 30 years after the fall of the wall).
There are heroic stories of refugies: get the story of the brothers "Bethke", who built little planes to get the other brother out or a whire from roof to roof. All this succeeded!! Or the ballon flight of two families! Brilliant!
...until David Hasselhoff finally sang down the wall. ;)
Thanks to David Hasselhoff 😊
The former border can still be seen today. Most of it is now a wall of forest, the longest nature reserve of Europe. The trees have grown big in 30 years. Of course the parts which are exhibits are not overgrown by nature, but anyone who visits Europe should visit a wall exhibit.
My coworker had to do his mandatory military service around this time on the east side. He tell me every time if he would be there as soldier at that night and he got the order to shot his own people he would turn around and emptyed his mag on his officers and when it would be the last thing that he do.
Thank god for the Hoff ..😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣
Hey, Ryan, the Berlin Wall was far shorter than the rest of the inner German border along the East-West German border. However it was far easier to spread out the inner and outer fences along the inner German border than in Berlin. The inner-German border was actually mined with anti-personnel mines, self-firing guns with wire-triggers, guard towers, and initially two-man patrols. Later, after multiple two-man patrols fled across the border, they were upgraded to four man-patrols with at least ONE political officer in the guard patrols.
Yes, people tried (and in the beginning succeeded) at crashing through the earlier border fortifications with cars that had been secretly upgraded with concrete panels as well as tires full of cement. These cars weren't supposed to be driven far, just far enough to get the passengers through the border into the west. Later, a few trucks were used when the border, both in Berlin and the rest of the border had become more or less imprenetrable to cars.
As a West German I visited the DDR/GDR in 1987. It was a very strange experience, having to relinquish your passport at ONE guard station, where it was then sent forward via pipe-mail to the second guard station. You were caught between two guard tower stations, with machine guns pointing into the death strip. You knew that beyond the two fences lining the road was the death strip of the inner German border. You were no caught in no-mansland, outside of any jurisdiction, without any legal papers, completely surrendering to the whims of the guards. If they wanted to vanish you, it could happen. Sure, they wouldn't do it nilly-willy, but if they had ANY reason to pull you out, you'd simply be gone. Only after your passport was cross-checked with your immigration papers, which you had to fill out weeks up to MONTHS ahead of time, were you allowed to the second guard station, where you were given VERY clear instructions NOT to deviate from the route on the DDR Autobahn until you reached your target exit. You were also told that IF you had to stop at a rest-stop, you'd ONLY be allowed to stop at certain rest stops. Once you'd arrived at your destination you had to inform the SED Blockwart of your arrival, who would calculate the average speed, thus the amount of time you SHOULD have taken to reach your destination. If you had deviated any significant amount, you'd have an entry added to your itinerary about suspicious behavior.
On the way out, this was even more rigorous. At the border station the guards controlling your vehicle made you turn up ALL seats and even the rear benches of the cars, unload ALL items from your trunk, open suitcases, etc. They checked EVERY possible location for potentially smuggled DDR citizens. Even the gas tanks were inspected to see if they were the original size, as children had been smuggled out by stowing them away behind the walls of reduced size gas tanks. That's how crazy the border patrols and guards were.
This was one year before the first 'seditious' movements began, with the Monday Marches organized by a priest in one of the churches in Leipzig. He gave out the rigorous demand of absolutely NO violence. Not even when they were pushed around, beaten with battons, nothing. He didn't want the SED and the StaSi to have ANY reason to outlaw these marches due to the claims of violence. It worked; incredibly well. More and more people went onto the streets in more and more cities, all peaceful, with candles in their hands, not reacting to any provocation. Even when Stasi agents instigated street fights these were often broken up by the marchers themselves, instead of allowing the cops to enter into the fray.
In thuringia u can see a part from the inner Border with the death Traps like mines working like a claymore one way one direction mounting at the fans on the eastern side the small town is Called Mödlareuth it is an Museum now and u can visiting it splitting the village in half.
Why the citation may not be included in the subtitles/translated subtitles may be a youtube Thing.
My guess is that the automatic subtitle program detects that MrWissen2Go (Mister Knowledge to go... ;) ) is reading the exact sentence that is also presented in clear text in the video and therefor no subtitle is needed. And because it is not used in the automatic subtitle the machine translation doesnt pick it up.
Just my guess... but maybe a thing for @youtube to make better. I dont know.
I still have a piece of this wall at home.
It's so sad that Korea is still fighting these problems 😥
Love your Videos, you definately have to take a look at some videos about excape attempts. There are some pretty fascinating ones
The Hoff did it!

I know I am late to the party. I loved you spontanious reaction, like "that is insane". Yes, true. Mr. Wissen simply means Mr. Knowledge. Terra X is a long running German documentation program with all kind of different stuff. I would so love to see a reaction to the most insane flight attemts (and successful flights) from the GDR. Believe it or not, someone even built a little plane to fly over the wall with his brothers.
MrWissen means Mr.knowledge.
People knew the wall, they saw it. Those who wanted to escape tried other ways, tunnels, balloons...
There are so many pieces of the Wall around the world, You can rebuild it 3 times😉
Your IRAK Comment was excellent ^^ ... very funny part
Some parts of the wall was trough houses,dividing families 😮
I will never forget that Trump try to build a wall. Whenever I think about it my mind is always blown away.
At the front entrance of my old high school in Southwestern Germany they placed four of those L-shaped wall elements and surrounded it with rusty barbed wire as a memorial (and a metal fence of course to stop stupid kids from touching the barbes wire and getting tetanus and blood poisoning).
On the front (West Berlin side) there's graffiti all over and lots of bits and pieces missing so even the reinforcement metal bars show while the back (GDR side) is grey, smooth and untouched.
See this video: Der Wunsch - Penny (Duitsland) from flowresulting
What is often not mentioned in this context is that there were such impermeable borders in general between the Warsaw Pact and NATO, ie also between CSSR and West Germany, Hungary and Austria, Bulgaria and Greece, and so on.
The GDR did not want to afford an open border economically either, because this has and would have led to the fact that specialists for the capitalist economy in the West were systematically trained there free of charge, apart from other things such as easier penetration by NATO espionage and terrorist groups . Whether Ulbricht really lied is speculation, it is too easy to take a sentence out of the context of his statements. Not having the intention can also mean wanting to avoid it if possible.
I, as a former GDR citizen, didn't really understand these people who climbed over the wall, at least from the 70s onwards. There was the possibility of bureaucratically applying for an exit to West Germany, and I myself knew about half a dozen people who made such an application and got it approved. I was not aware of any case where this was not approved. What was not approved much more often were temporary departures for visits or tourist purposes, which affected me myself and was therefore quite angry.
As an East German, I find it sobering that people always talk about the Berlin Wall and forget that this fortified border ran through the whole of Germany. stretches are even wider and even more solid... sometimes right through entire towns
12:36 pretty good pronunciation
Geschichte means both history and story
oh new video - yaay
Wissen = Knowledge
If you're interessted, look up some stories of how people fled. There are some really crazy ones out there!
MrWissen2Go is aswell the German Name ^^ Wissen just means like knowledge
If you are interestet in this Topic, there is a netflix-serie called "Charité" about the famous Hospital in east berlin. There are 3 Seasons. The first one covers the late 19. century, the second one the WW2 period ans the third season the building of the wall. As a german I can really recommend it, since it covers very interesting historical topics.
I was born in 1984 in the former DDR, so I experienced the last years and the early years of the reunion myself. I was but a child of cause, but now as an adult there are many things I understand now, since I have the knowledge to actually question these things. And when I hear some Donald Trump proclaiming to build a wall or say other bullshit which reminds me of some other dark events in german history, I actually am very worried about how this whole thing ends for the USA and the rest of the world.
Wissen means Knowledge
Wow, an average of two people died there per month. Unimaginable ... in Chicago.
Which American country are you from, USA or Canada? Or in one of those smaller countries in America where English is spoken?
Hi MrWissenToGo is the name of the CZcams Channel. You could translate it with MrKnowledgeToGo. It's part of "Funk" which is part of our "Öffentliche Rechtliche" which means some paid by citizen media channels. The man you see is Mirco Drotschmann a german journalist. He is the face of the channel. But there is a whole team behind him. It's like a tv-show but on CZcams.
Die schlimmen alten Zeiten 🇩🇪
Mr is the englisch word you must know, Wissen means knowledge, 2go I hope you also understand and Terra is latin for earth or land and well X I don't know I guess it's just there as a variable. It's some kind of "Denglisch" how we would call it (Deutsch x English). I think it is rather easy to remember, maybe you can now too
Please watch more of Mr.Wissen2Go!!! Your reation to his videos especially when it is about German history is interesting.
That's possible the difference between American and German politicians. Regarding the Berlin Wall, Ulbricht lied to people's faces, but still had the wall built. Costs? Didn't matter to Ulbricht.
On the other hand, the Honorable Donald, Trump is his last name (I think), started building his wall and it was as if it had never been built. Probably because it became too expensive and the stingy Mexicans didn't want to pay anything to build the wall.
As a child, I climbed the Great Wall of China a few times, each time when my dad (with family) came to China to do some work. I felt I hiked the whole wall, in fact I probably didn't even see a third of it. The wall is really huge and impressive, at least the part on which you can still climb stairs up, stairs down. The other walls are more or less just visible as piles of sand or such.
But to be fair, as massive and aweish as the Great Wall of China is, it didn't stop the warriors of the steppe peoples from overcoming it and ruling over China. That Trump's plans failed in terms of his protective wall is therefore a historical inevitability. Trump should not be blamed for this. To my personal entertainment he suffers (I hope) of the aftermaths of his endless little and not such little crimes. Life can be such a burden. Poor Don.
Die Kosten der Grenzanlagen ,nicht nur in Berlin ,haben den Zusammenbruch nur beschleunigt
Well, just translate "Wissen" with "Knowledge" and you get the name of the show.
Maybe watch some videos about some escapes from the DDR. There are lots of stories with tunnels, hot air ballons and planes.
As Böhmermann (comedian) said "we even had a wall, it was the greatest wall in history and we made the communists pay for it"
At that time, Reagan had already lost some of his mental strength. Therefore, influenced by his wife Nancy, his team had scripted all public appearances like a script for an actor. They integrated some jokes from Reagan's joke collection, so it became authentic and he as an actor was able to deliver it convincingly. Not only Nancy, many of his speechwriters were women like Peggy Noonan. This kept the matter clear, but in a more integrative and emphatic way. In retrospect, Reagan became one of the most charismatic presidents in the USA.
I died on that german pronounciation, eieiei.
If you need to concentrate, just collect your thoughts afterwards and give them to us in a seperate part of the video.
Mr. Wissen to go 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hallo Ryan, comment please “Tschüss Genossen - Die cleversten Fluchten aus der DDR“. These cases are worthy of a movie.
the wall fell because there was an absurd story, a sentence that led to it on november 9th. which was never the sentence what the government meant :D read that carefully =)
It's DDR and not GDR like in the subtitles
This is "FUNK" ... it's a channel sponsered by German state TV
Wissen is German for knowledge.
Useless fun fact: there's a comedy party in Germany that managed to be elected into the EU parliament, and one of their demands is to re-erect the wall.
This is with English subtitels…

…is Germany really fault of WW1 and the start in the Apocalypse which also led to the 2nd world war. the 2nd world war only came up that the Germans had been made guilty for everything in the first one that was not true. Since the winner always writes the story and writes it the way he likes it.
