      These are called flashbulb memories :) they happen after major historical moments that are culturally significant. You can ask most people where they were when they found out about 911 and they can describe it down to tiny details. Sometimes these things will help differentiate between generations- Millenials will remember 9/11 but Gen Z will often have been too young

      I grew up in Brevard county Fl and my grandfather and dad were both engineers for NASA. We obtained a visitors pass for the launch and almost didn't go due to the weather and my parents believing the launch would get scrubbed. However, we had family in town who have never seen a shuttle launch and took our chances. Based on a few family pics we took before the launch, you could see barely anyone was out on the visitor section that day. My mom told me when the Challenger exploded she started screaming while my relatives didn't know what was going on since they never have seen a shuttle launch. It gives me shivers even retelling the story.

    I was 30 years old when this news broke. I remember sitting at a bar in a hometown nightclub in Western New York. It was still a Saturnday night here in the States. The television was on behind the bar and I saw the news bulletein sometime between 10pm and 11pm. The announcer talked about the accident in Paris and Diana being seriously injured. i remember the volume of the TV was muted so people could hear the juke box in the bar. The closed captioning of the TV was on and i remember at some point the closed captioning changed from "Princess Diana has been seriously injured" to "Princess Diana has died". I remember letting out an audible gasp and the tears starting welling up. I was not the only one to have that reaction. Many people around me were in shock and quite emotional when they heard this dreadful news. I immediately began thinking of a lovely, mid summer morning in July 1981 when I purposely woke up at 4AM to watch a young, beautiful, radiant girl's fairytale royal wedding on television. I was just 14 yrs old then. I, like the rest of the world, fell in love with this lovely and compassionate young lady. I just couldn't believe she was gone. It felt like, still does, that the world lost a beautiful bright light of hope and fell a bit darker when she left it that terrible night in 1997. I feel very fortunate that I lived my youth and young adulthood in a time when she walked this earth.

    Harry explained this entire situation with one single quote, "I will not be forced to participate in the game that killed my mother." That's all we need to know about why this is happening.
    The irony is that many of Harry's harshest critics are the very same people who adored his mother. If you loved Diana, Harry's decision to leave should be easy to understand and "Say no more, were behind you" is the appropriate response.

      You know what? I can't fully watch how she was killed, I don't want to imagine the ambulance that took abnormally long time to get her to the hospital. I can't imagine how she felt when she realized that she was being murdered and could not even scream. Her realizing that they have already killed her sweetheart. Ooh! How cruel the world can be. It still hurts. I love Harry forbeing normal and human enough not to be overdrawn to Status. He is Diana's son. His mother's love made a man in him. She was soo much a force to be recogned with- You are so much a force to be recogned with Harry. May God protect you, your lovely wife And the beautiful package Archie is. We love you. I understand the pain. I appreciate your strength and courage. Lucky you to have such a courageous wife. The dust will eventually settle. Remain calm and collected. This too, will soon come to pass the. 🙏🏾

I texted my college tutor Sophie to tell her that I’m heading home and told her the Queen is probably dying so she accepted me going home earlier than everyone else. I got home within an hour after having an anxiety attack on the bus 151 and the driver had to stop to help me out and I told him that the Queen was dying and then I let him continue driving us home afterwards, I found Woody.EXE very worried about the Queen ei saw him crying. I urged Mummy, Princess of Wales to come home immediately after I sent her Woody.EXE’s alarming text messages and she was home by 6pm uk time. About 6:30 that Thursday evening, the Queen was announced dead and my cries were so gut wrenching that Mummy had to leave the kitchen because she hates seeing me in pain; Woody.EXE proclaimed me as the Queen of Wales and Mummy was officially the Princess of Wales with my sister following suit of the Princess of Wales title 4 days after Mummy.

    I’m older than most here. There were only two cases (in my lifetime anyways) of death of famous celebrities when I literally stopped doing whatever I was doing and cried like if a member of my own family had died: December 8, 1980 and August 30 1997. Both tragic, both British, both personal to me. People whom I never met in person, not even in a public event…yet their impact in our lives were so big, so great and so positive, their passing, specially so young and in such tragic manner was unbearable.
    For context, I was 16 when Lennon died, and last year 40 years! after his dead, I was 16 years OLDER than the age he was when he died. For Diana, I still remember vividly 1981 the wedding day, even though I didn’t care for monarchy…but she was so beautiful, so gracious and so NORMAL! It was then surreal to me that less than 20 years after, she was gone. Took me a while to come to terms with the reality…

I was too shocked at first to even speak and I turned to my mother and she was equally shocked. We sat and watched the events unfold for about 5 minutes before the shock wore off and the sadness hit home. We gave each other a hug and then I went off into another room and for some reason I just went down on one knee like I'd been winded. After a few minutes I went back into the living room and continued to watch the coverage. All normal TV programming on any channel was suspended and I think all sporting events were as well.

I went to work and they were playing candle in the wind on the radio and a work colleague said to me " why are they playing this song over and over " I said because of Princess Diana. What about her ? she said, so replied that she'd been killed and she wouldn't believe me, then radio presenter said it and she just stood crying her eyes out. One thing Diana had and that was the sympathy and love of the British public.

    I was 6 years old when this happened. It was the first world event I remember happening as a kid.
    I remember getting up in the morning and see my parents watching TV. My mom was in tears and my dad was in disbelief.
    I asked what happened and I’ll never forget the words my mom said
    “We just lost a very wonderful person in a car crash”.

    I was 9 years old when I saw Peter Jennings report this. Even then, with nowhere near the understanding of who Diana was as a person, I was inconsolable. This will never not be heartbreaking. Her humanity and vulnerability are what made her so beautiful and special. She was an ordinary person in extraordinary circumstances.

    Twenty two years on, this brings back such desperately sad memories. Diana was such a breath of fresh air, gently changing the royal family and stirring the emotions of a very hidebound Britain. We loved her because she showed she loved us. The world became a poorer place the day she died.

I was 19 when Mummy told me and she comforted me during the 24th anniversary. Then the Queen dies 2 years later after my mental health deteriorated greatly and the Queens death really affected my mental health once again and I was 20 years old when she died

    I was 9 at the time. My siblings and I watched the news coverage at Argentinian TV in the early morning before going to school and still hopeful that it was "just" an accident and that she might recover. What does a kid know about death at that age... Well in the afternoon when we returned it was already confirmed that she had died. We watched the funeral and joined the moment of silence. And I was deeply moved by "Candle in the Wind" song.

    I was also a young Mom/Mum, also suffered terribly with postpartum/postnatal depression, when Diana passed. From sneaking to watch her wedding to Charles, to watching her raise her sons and a new lease on life after she divorced, I was absolutely devastated by the death of a woman my age, but having lived a completely different life across the ocean. I sobbed over her loss, watched the news endlessly, and was driven to a fever for crying so hard, watching her funeral. Thankfully, I'm recovered, and Diana is in heaven. May she Rest in Peace.

It was a heavy time of transition for me, id soon be attending a new school in a new town and i was very nervous.. Then the news came of Diana in the car accident and my mom was constantly watching the news on it. I knew very little about her at the time, but the weight of the situation was felt strongly even for me. Overall its a very unique memory of mine.
