1912 - Titanic. Comment even somehow uncomfortable. So much has been written. Photographed. Says. Perhaps the lookout. Maybe the wrong maneuver. But somehow I at the mention of the Titanic in the first place come to mind laudatory terms. "Unsinkable", "perfect", etc. For some reason, if the object confer similar characteristics, with it certainly happens some nasty ...
Interestingly, Kemeron beaten off the hunt to take forever on this subject, because the beat is really difficult

1951 - Miss World. And it so happened that the British was coming festival and we had to push advertising ballroom, which is planned to be used. We turned to Eric Morley, who worked at an advertising agency, "Mecca." Well, he moved the idea to hold the World beauty contest under the auspices of the festival. Two in one. This is the spring of 1951 London became the capital of beauty, and remained so until the early 1990s, when they began to use the rotation of venues.

The winning Kerstin «Kiki» Håkansson, for which he cut down a bonus of 1,000 pounds. She was the only one who is defiled in a bikini. Only monokini - law was adopted for all subsequent shows.

1989 - Sheffield, "Hillsborough". During proveldeniya semifinals of the FA Cup between the "Liverpool" and "Nottingham" killed 96 people. The youngest was 10.
This is the case, during which the police acted very inert and illiterate, was the last straw. Attitude to security in the stadiums has changed dramatically. The stands with standing places began to clean up, control the behavior of the fans have tightened, the police began to teach it in detail in the case of incidents during matches.
Thank God…
