1000 7.5 ft styrofoam dominoes were used to recreate the Berlin Wall to signify the toppling of Communism. They were painted by 15K children from around the world and will be sent to places that still are divided like Korea and Gaza as well as museums. Lech Walesa got the toppling started.
They didn’t all fall at once – as planned. The toppling took place around other events.
