Watch me try to calculate how tall the Berlin TV Tower is using a ruler! Berlin also being a great reminder that dividing walls are a terrible idea. • Info about the Berlin Fernsehturm TV Tower: • https://www.berlin.de/en/attractions-... • If you want to try this, you can check what direction the sun will be shining at any location and for any date/time: • http://suncalc.net/#/52.5208,13.4094,... • Thank you to Gherardo for lending me a saw while I was in Berlin! • CORRECTIONS: • None yet, but I’m sure there will be.
