I saw some BBC document searching for this guy.His identity is unknown till today and Chines goverement denied that he was killed.
Funny is that this is 1 of the most respected and known pics on the planet but the most of china people know nothing about what happened there...

Blows me away every time too.

The guy is holding his groceries (or whatever) the whole time too.

Mutt · 04-16-2008, 07:01 AM

it's also in a music video of Matchbox 20's 'How Far We've Come' - which is great because I hope at least some the teenyboppers who like them will see the footage and be interested enough to find out more about the event.

yep the grocery bags make it even more moving - a common man who had had enough and seized the day.

Sveindt Beindt · 04-16-2008, 07:05 AM

Scary

D · 04-16-2008, 07:05 AM

I think the best is the way he just walked up to the hatch and asked the soldiers "What are you doing here?"

And yeah, no one's even positive who the guy was, let alone what happened to him.

So many people connected with those protests were murdered by the government (sorry... executed) as they kicked out all foreign press and tried to sweep it under the rug in the weeks to come afterward.

CurrentlySober · 04-16-2008, 07:07 AM

I expected the tanks to run him over...

Zebra · 04-16-2008, 07:09 AM

So glad that China was rewarded with the honor of hosting the Olympics.

cthulhu_waves · 04-16-2008, 07:12 AM

Brad · 04-16-2008, 07:26 AM

I've always liked that image.

I say unless you've been there and seen what it's like you can't really pass judgement. I was just there so...

I think they have come a long way and that the Olympics will only help them progress further. It's not like North America or Europe doesn't have blood on it's hands.

florin · 04-16-2008, 07:33 AM

cojones, indeed...

KzU · 04-16-2008, 07:42 AM

The Tiananmen Square Massacre, or as our red chinese friends call it, the June Fourth Incident.

This man had no fear. Anyone who was thier should be commended as a Hero.

quantum-x · 04-16-2008, 08:18 AM

The suppression of the protest was immortalized in Western media by the famous video footage and photographs of a lone man in a white shirt standing in front of a column of tanks which were attempting to drive out of Tiananmen Square. Taken on June 5 as the column approached an intersection on the Avenue of Eternal Peace, the footage depicted the unarmed man standing in the center of the street, halting the tanks' progress. As the tank driver attempted to go around him, the "tank man" moved into the tank's path. He continued to stand defiantly in front of the tanks for some time, then climbed up onto the turret of the lead tank to speak to the soldiers inside. He reportedly said, "Why are you here? You have caused nothing but misery." After returning to his position blocking the tanks, the man was pulled aside by onlookers who perhaps feared he would be shot or run over. Time Magazine dubbed him The Unknown Rebel and later named him one of the 100 most influential people of the 20th century. British tabloid the Sunday Express reported that the man was 19-year-old student Wang Weilin, however, the veracity of this claim is dubious. What happened to the 'tank man' following the demonstration is not known. In a speech to the President's Club in 1999, Bruce Herschensohn — former deputy special assistant to President Richard Nixon — reported that he was executed 14 days later. In Red China Blues: My Long March from Mao to Now, Jan Wong writes that the man is still alive and hiding in mainland China. In Forbidden City, Canadian children's author William Bell, claims the man was named Wang Ai-min and was killed on June 9 after being taken into custody. The last official statement from the PRC government about the tank man came from Jiang Zemin in a 1990 interview with Barbara Walters, when asked about the whereabouts of the tank man, Jiang responded that the young man was "I think never killed".[7]

VikingMan · 04-16-2008, 08:37 AM

Like 99% of the human race I am just going to ignore that and sit back eating my junk food so I can add another roll of fat on my huge gut. Walmart is still open, so why should I care?

SykkBoy · 04-16-2008, 08:48 AM

CosmicTang · 04-16-2008, 09:22 AM

none of that footage is even available in China. I heard you can't access anything about TS there.

IllTestYourGirls · 04-16-2008, 09:27 AM

You would think if the Chinese hated their government so much they would have a revolution.

"In another attack Mad Jack and one of his enlisted men managed to sneak up on a pair of German sentries making rounds. He leapt at them, sword in hand and shouted, ?haende hoch!? The Germans obeyed by dropping weapons and raising their hands. One sentry was taken back to camp while the other had Jack?s belt wrapped round his throat, and together they continued the rounds. At each guard post his prisoner would say something to lull the guards into complacency, then a mustached-mad-man with a sword would jump out and order them to drop their arms. All in all, the two Brits rounded up forty-two prisoners that night."

That's awesome.

Antonio · 04-16-2008, 11:04 AM

wtf?? they didn't run him over? lucky motherfucker, hopre they didn't get him after that

Tom_PM · 04-16-2008, 11:09 AM

I always am amazed of the videos from the 1960's of black girls and boys walking calmly down a gauntlet of white students who are pelting them at point blank range with rocks simply because they were allowed to attend the same schools.

tranza · 04-16-2008, 11:14 AM

Everytime I see this I wonder what happened to him later.

I'm pretty sure he got killed a few minutes/hours after that.

Disappeared? That guy is National hero in China today...

After spending time in a re-education camp, D.B. Wong, found a place for himself on the Chinese National Basketball team, where he has emerged as the best pick-setting guard in Chinese basketball history...

You people really need to catch up on your history...
