If you could witness any event that has happened in the past...

Wish you were still in one so I could nail it shut.

That was staged actually

"actually"??

There are suspicions that it may have been staged because of her involvement with the NAACP, but these arguments are weak. She might have been shagging MLK for all we know, but I don't see what difference that would make?

She was sat in a seat designated for blacks, until further whites got on the bus leaving only standing room. She was asked to move to the back of the bus to make room for the recently boarded whites.......& she refused. Had those whites not boarded - she could have remained where she was originally sat.

Deliberate or not, it really did happen & was a significant event in the Civil Rights Movement...........& therefore could be considered an important event in history & one that someone might want to have witnessed.

Why would you even bother to suggest that it was staged or fake?

Battle of Waterloo for me. Been to the battlefield, seen the epic movie, would love to see the real thing.

Or as someone else said, D-Day landings, specifically Omaha beach - only as an 'untouchable' observer though, too much shit flying about in reality.

I'd go visit Jesus, and then come back with a real answer.

I'd visit Jesus then come back and shock everyone with the news it was all a load of bollócks

I'd visit Jesus at the crucifixion and start a crowd chant of "always look on the bright side of life".

Or how about being there for the Big Bang? That would be a mind-blowing experience....quite literally.

To be one of the first to land in Australia or America, explore the new world and see things that nobody has ever seen before, as great as things like the internet and Google maps is, it really does take the fun out of discovery and exploration.

John H Stracey winning the world title in Mexico beating Jose Napoles

Torville and Dean gold in Sarajevo

I'll run my own grand national using ready-meal lasagnes, will that do for a substitute?

Two fantastic moments there.

I'd love to be able to see Dancing Brave's Arc win for racing. Boxing wise anything that involves James Jeffries (expect the JJ defeat) John L. Sullivan or Jake La Motta. I absolute love reading about the old fights, sends the imagination wild.

Think it was Cahrley Mitchell who Sullivan was losing to in the 55th round, being sick in the corner he finally got a second wind and came back to regain his World Title in the 71st round.

Listening to the unconditional surrender of Germany on the wireless and then the VE Day celebrations. Think I'd get myself a uniform for that day ;)

lol

You'd have been drowning in fanny batter that day.
