Yes, I knew that normally they don't exist, but, anyway, it's a good
feeling.

I would also like to remember the names of some movies that I have
seen. One of them was about an American (?) or Englishman trying to
cross the German-Swiss border. And he was shot at until he reached
the middle of the border line. Then the German guard shot again, but
the Swiss guard reacted and shot back, as the bullet entered the
Swiss territory, and the Swiss Red Cross came and assisted the man.

It's interesting to see how borders create strange facts.
