The Tiananmen Square Tank Man
People who were around in the late 1980s may recall what happened at the Tiananmen Square protests in China back in 1989. It turns out that a man stood right in front of a tank as it approached, but his brave efforts failed and he was run over by the tank. At least, that’s what everyone remembers. But the truth is that the man was removed from the deadly path of the tank before tragedy struck and he was never injured or killed.
