Indeed. Such huge symbolism in the images and videos of the wall being torn down. A huge watershed moment in global history.

Happy days, there's nothing that warms the heart more than the sight of East German lads with their TIger King moustache and mullets crossing into West Berlin.

The late 80s and early 90s were such a great time to be alive, there was a sense of euphoria with the break up of the Eastern bloc and huge optimism about what the future would hold. If I could relive those years I would, in a heartbeat.

You sure? People had to listen to David Hasselhoff playing music back then. Indeed it got worse with the fall of the Berlin Wall as he thought he'd caused it.
