The verb 'to span' is a metaphoric expression that refers to an act of traversing in space, therefore, also semantically cognate with the German verb spannen.

'Girl 03' is definitely not Ellen Haufler.
'Boy 03' (Unknown Male 8231-A) was credited as Michael in several BB-Video titles and appeared as Mike Bolz here.
