Fall of the Berlin Wall: 8 News Anchor recalls ‘shocking’ aftermath in Germany 30 years ago


RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) — Germany recently marked the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.  

The year was 1989. Images of the Berlin Wall being knocked down consumed international media. For most German residents, the event was unfathomable.During that time, tens of thousands of American military personnel were stationed in Germany. Many families, like 8News Anchor Constance Jones’ family, made a home overseas and were also able to witness that moment in history.       


Virginia Commonwealth University Journalism Professor Marcus Messner, Ph.D., was a teenager living in Germany at the time. He told 8News, “There was two Germanys. There were two Berlins. In our thinking, there wasn’t any challenge that that could change.”  “Nobody could imagine or suddenly imagine that history from one night to the next day,” Messner continued. “It was shocking. Then, opening the newspaper the next day and seeing the boarder open is open.”Click here to watch the full story or watch below!

  1. This is how my pal Wesley Virgin's adventure launches in this SHOCKING AND CONTROVERSIAL VIDEO.

    As a matter of fact, Wesley was in the army-and shortly after leaving-he discovered hidden, "self mind control" secrets that the government and others used to get everything they want.

    As it turns out, these are the same SECRETS many celebrities (notably those who "come out of nowhere") and top business people used to become rich and famous.

    You probably know how you only use 10% of your brain.

    That's really because most of your brainpower is UNTAPPED.

    Perhaps this expression has even taken place INSIDE your own mind... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's mind about seven years back, while riding a non-registered, garbage bucket of a vehicle without a license and with $3.20 on his bank card.

    "I'm so frustrated with living paycheck to paycheck! When will I get my big break?"

    You've been a part of those those types of conversations, ain't it so?

    Your own success story is going to happen. You just need to take a leap of faith in YOURSELF.
