David Hasselhoff has claimed partial responsibility for the fall of the Berlin Wall
Speaking to German magazine TV Spielfilm, Hasselhoff said in 1989, the year the wall fell, he had helped reunite the country by singing his song 'Looking for Freedom' among millions of German fans at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin...."I find it a bit sad that there is no photo of me hanging on the walls in the Berlin Museum at Check-Point Charlie.
