Re: What significant flashbulb memories do you have?

I got four. Two are a bit more serious than the other two.

I distinctly remember when Eddie Guerrero the WWE wrestler died. My sister woke me up as I was napping to tell me. This was when I was really into WWE and he was one my favs. I was so upset. The second is when I found out Heath Ledger died. Some woman at a table behind me in college asked me if I had heard he died. No clue why that is one since I am not really a fan of him.

Another is the Columbine shooting. I remember coming home from school and watching it on TV. I was at my grandma's house and I just say in front of the TV watching it. I was 10 so someone probably shouldn't have. The last one is 9/11. The teacher a classroom over ran over to tell my teacher. They brought a TV in to turn the news on. Watching the news and discussing it was basically what we did all day.

eta: I think January 6th will be become one. I streamed it at work the whole day. Horrifying.

Yep. That day sticks out for me, too. I also saw it on TV-I'd come home from school and my dad had the news on. I saw the kids running out of the school and I actually remember saying, "Oh, god, another one?", because there'd been a few other shootings up to that point (in fact, I'd just done a report on school shootings a few days before Columbine happened). Little did I know how common that question would become...:/.

I was 14 at the time, and in eighth grade/ I remember going to school the next day and everyone just seemed very anxious and on edge. We even talked about the tragedy in a few of my classes.

This was the first one I was ever aware of. I also have a distinct memory of watching the kids being escorted out in groups and dangling out of windows.
