In this Sept. 11, 2009 file photo is seen the model of an escape tunnel from East to West Berlin, at the Underworlds museum in Berlin, Germany. When the East German Government built the Berlin Wall in 1961 to prevent its citizens from leaving, the regime failed to take account for the ingenuity and creativity of those willing to risk anything to escape the communist system. Today, almost 20 years after the wall's demise, Berlin's Cold War-era bunker and tunnel system has become one of the most popular attractions for tourists and locals alike.
