Grammar?

[edit]

It states "After the fall of the Berlin Wall opened". What does this mean? What should this really say? Popsix 19:36, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"komme über"?

[edit]

The article says that West Germans shouted "komme über", which I doubt is correct (I am a native speaker). The most likely, shouted form of "komme herüber" would be "komm rüber", but I am reluctant to make the edit, because there are no sources for this, and the German version of the article does not mention any encouragement, apart from the presence of the police car. 86.185.196.147 (talk) 15:20, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, the article said, "komme rüber" until the most recent edit, which was to remove the r. I don't speak German and don't know which is correct, but if you, as a native speaker, think the r should be there, feel free change it back. Armadillopteryxtalk 21:13, 2 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The "r" should be definititely there. "Komm rüber" or "Komme rüber" is okay, "komme über" has no grammatical sense.--Fuball (talk) 21:08, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Questions

[edit]

This article doesn't explain why there were at least 2 photographers and 1 cameraman at that place in that very moment. Conrad Schumann jumped the barbed wire and into the car in just 4 seconds.

  1. Photographer 1 / Unknown CIA employee (according to Commons author info). He took at least 4 pictures
  2. Photographer 2 / Peter Leibing. He took at least 1 photograph, the famous one. The perspective is a bit different from the Photographer 1.
  3. Cameraman 1 / Unknown. He recorded this footage.

In Peter Leibing article, it remarks "the Hamburg picture agency Contiepress, had been tipped by police that an East German border guard might escape". Was the scene staged? emijrp (talk) 09:23, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

He killed everyone
