East Germans escaped in a variety of ways varying from simple plans to ingenious escape plots. The 28 years of the wall's existence saw roughly 40,000 escapees. As the wall's defenses were increased over the years so had to evolve these escape plans. While in the beginning simply sneaking through the defenses with wire cutters offered a chance of freedom, as did ramming a vehicle through the wall, or smuggling people through the border in hidden vehicle compartments, later escape plans had to evolve to more complicated methods such as digging tunnels, running zip lines from building to building, building homemade hot-air balloons.
