Australia is currently celebrating 50 years of television. In light of this, TV stations come out with various programs like 50 Best songs, 50 Best TV stars, 50 Most Unforgettable Moments, 50 Biggest News, 50 Most popular shows etc..

To me, I have particular feelings about these news.

1989 - Tianamen Square Massacre in Beijing, China.
The picture with the lone protester, standing in front of an advancing tank is gonna stay in my head forever.

1997 - Diana dies in Paris crash.
This was the first time I saw how the whole world mourns the loss of one person.

2000 - Russian submarine sank in the Barents Sea killing 118 aboard.
Can't imagine what the sailors were thinking in their dying hours, let alone in complete darkness.

2001 - September 11 in New York city.
I thought some kind of action movie was showing on the TV instead!

2004 - Australian-born Mary Donaldson became Crown Princess of Denmark after her marriage to Danish Crown Prince Frederik.
All women watching the wedding ceremony telecasts wish one day a fairy tale like this will happen to them.

2004 - The Asian Tsunami.
How powerful the mother nature is. Human is just tiny.

2006 - Crocodile hunter Steve Irwin killed by stingray.
His passion and love of life, family and nature was boundless. A true inspiration.
