Hey everyone, new topic here. I am looking to make a new video and had an idea for it, but am going to be needing your help gathering content for it. What events happened in your lifetime? Things like Challenger or JFK? Things that if you were old enough you can tell exactly where you were at and what you were doing? Go as far back as you can remember or as far back as you have been alive. For example, the first big thing that I know of that happened in my lifetime would be the death of Elvis Presley in August of 1977. I was just a baby, so I have no memory of it. But if you were old enough to have a memory of such events and if you want to share them, please do so. Please remember the content might be posted in the next video. And have fun with this, I am excited to see what things turn up. And no, you do not have to list them all at once. Thanks everyone and have a good day! ;D

Hmm.. no takers huh? You can add your thoughts about an event even if someone else already added it? My next one would be Challenger on January 28, 1986. Like many other kids I was at school that day. But I remember seeing the shuttle live on the launch pad before going out to school that morning.

This is an interesting idea, a lifetime timeline.
There are many things that have happened. I will have to get back to you to be more in depth. Here are some things that come to mind, maybe people can expand on them in the meantime.
Flight 800, Waco, John Lennon's murder, the Berlin Wall, the Columbia diaster, September 11... but there aren't just bad things... the internet, cell phones, VCRs and beyond, microwaves and more.
How is that for a start?

LOL. How about Walmart in general. Too bad we can't say transporters.

I was ten years old and in the first grade room ( each teacher in the school had lunch duty on rotating schedule) eating lunch when my brother and his friend, frank soto, and told everyone what had happen.

I was not alive but I know people who were. News coverage has been rehashing and will continue. Don't know if we will ever know what happened. It was a sad turning point in our history.
