colourised photograph of my grandmother celebrating the fall of the Berlin Wall, ca. 1989. I hope one day we may live to see the fall of fascism world round. 🙏

But for serious I just think it’s funny that everyone is like “a cellphone!! This is fake!! We caught you” But ignore Charli in the middle of the photo. Nothing gets past you, internet detective!
I cry BS. Cell phones in general were not popular in Germany then from their expense and the smart phone actually came later. Next time do some better research when you photoshop your grandmother.
I still remember where I was sitting (a computer lab in the basement of Younker Hall, Grinnell, College), which direction I was facing (South), and the color of the computer monitor (amber), when I got the news that the wall had fallen.

Phones like that never existed in that decade.
