Here you go.

Look at the "A Look Back section" and click on the link that says "Full StoryVIDEO: Tank defiance '89"
It's small with quiet sound but it shows the events of this image.

The news events of this are burned into my head.

Thanks for the video pirate, but that guys crazy i would never do something like that I was expecting that tank to run him over

Re: Look firmiliar?

Tianamen Square in 1989, democratic students staged a protest, the government broke it up with tanks and infantry... many students were killed and this picture remains one of the most enduring images of the event.

A single student holding up a column of tanks.

EDIT: Swapped pic for a smaller one.

I was only 12 when i saw that on TV.

Majority of the people on this forum are too young to remember what happened in 1989. That guy standing in front of those tanks has been burned into my memory and I aint ever gonna forget that day.

Re: Look familiar?

So if we made one with two planes going into a tower in an American city with fire and people jumping off would that be a good history lesson?

If it meant that people wouldnt forget what happened on 9/11/01 then YES it would.
