22. Tiananmen Square guy.

I was ten years old when the big "tank runs down civilian" thing occurred. But that was the center of the controversy, and the only reason why I remember it.

The tank ran down the civilian. In real life, that actually happened, and it made global headlines.

...now, the tank rolls to a stop, the guy climbs on top and .... omfg. This isn't real? Is it? WHat? Why would any news agency even pick that up?
