a) JFK was shot
In my Sophomore English class in High School.

b) Apollo 11 landed on the moon
I watched it on TV and cheered when they announced that "The Eagle has landed".

c) John Lennon was shot
I actually didn't hear about until I read my morning paper the next day. Then I turned on the TV news.

d) the Berlin Wall fell
I came home from work and watched it on the evening news. I was totally fascinated because I had a teacher in High School who worked for the CIA in the Berlin. He had plenty of stories to tell about the East and West relations, or lack thereof.

e) the 9/11 attacks occurred
I was at home getting ready for work. The TV news interrupted their broadcast to get the network feed about an "accident" in NY. Then I watched the second plane hit.

The Kennedy assassination, the Moon Landing and the 9/11 attacks had the greatest impacts on me. Of those, I watched two on live on TV.
