We have all seen that amazing photo. 25 years ago today that young man stood his ground in front of a column of tanks.

The photo that would eventually make its way around the world was taken on 5 June on Chang'an Avenue. As the tank driver attempted to go around him, the "Tank Man" moved into the tank's path.
