The world remembers Neil Armstrong
With the passing of the first man on the moon, the world remembers the man and that amazing day.
- @fieldproducer watching the moon over the sea in Majorca. I keep staring at it. I still can’t get my head around that he was there.
- @fieldproducer just took the dog out and looked at the moon. Remarkable that anyone was ever brave enough to go there
- @fieldproducer sitting on my grandfather's lap, motorcycle helmet on pretending it was me. Truly was one small step and one giant leap.
- @fieldproducer I was a young boy of 11 years old in South Africa no TV listening over the radio in complete awe will never forget
- @fieldproducer watched on giant screen in Jerusalem. Felt truely amazed that day, truly sad today.
- @fieldproducer I was 11 and at grandma's in Mexico. TV was in the den. Whole family crowded in to watch, amazed.
- @fieldproducer saw moon from nans lawn and ran inside to tv, ran outside again wondering if they would do a moon handstand, like us kids
- @fieldproducer as a 4yr old sat in front of small b&w in Hong Kong told by mum watch & remember this it's historic! I have. It was amazing.
- @fieldproducer I got engaged that evening, looking up at the moon. Have been married 41 years. A magical night. RIP Neil.
- @fieldproducer I was five. It was about 3a.m. and the whole family was gathered in my parents' bed. I'll always be thankful they woke us.
- @fieldproducer left school excited prev day watched orbit on friends telly. Pretended to sleep at home till dad brought us down. Happy days
- @fieldproducer 8y.o., in Toronto. Went to neighbours' house because they had colour TV. Moon walk in b&w! Will never forget, so exciting.
- @fieldproducer I was 9 yrs. old, our family gathered around the TV. Felt goose-bumpy-just knew I was watching something big.
- @fieldproducer Girl Scout Camp Mess Hall entranced by Black n White TVs. Just 11yr, saved Newspaper. #moonlanding #NeilArmstrong
- @fieldproducer Dad woke me to watch, said "You'll never see anything like this again". Special memories I will never forget.
- @fieldproducer my dad say us all down in the family room to watch as he put it "a moment that will change our lives". Remember like yesterdy
- @fieldproducer -I was in school. We were excused frm class 2 watch landing "live". Crowded in2 a room, gathered around old TV. Total silence
- @fieldproducer their names imprinted on me from watching on b&w as a ten year old. Made me choose science
- @fieldproducer I was 6 and stood in a store w/my mom and watched on their TV because we knew we would miss it if we tried to get home.
- @fieldproducer After seeing landing on TV I stood in my Norwegian schoolyard watching the moon; absolutely amazed that ppl were walkng there
- @fieldproducer was in a caravan near Plymouth aged 4 watching on a b/w tv in awe. 1st memory of life. Wanted to be an astronaut ever since.
- @fieldproducer It was the early AM of my seventh b-day. Dad woke me up to watch it, sleepy-eyed, a barely discernible B&W image on our TV.
- @fieldproducer I was 11, Mum wouldn't let me stay up. Big brother woke me up, took me to his house to watch it! A memorable night for me.
