It is unclear why astronaut Charlie Duke would leave a photo of his family on the moon.
Whatever his intentions are, it was the Apollo 16 mission that allowed him to leave his family picture on the moon. Now, Duke is 81 years old and is leading a peaceful life. He has collected more than 4,000 flying hours and 256 hours in space.
Germany Is Free
This picture was taken in 1945 just in time when this American soldier was happily replacing the sign which says, “Adolf-Hitler-Str.” from Germany’s street. The war clearly has ended and this image captured a moment in history that brought smiles to everyone.
The soldier dutifully replaced Hitler’s street sign in Berlin with that of “Roosevelt Blvd” to further commemorate the role America played in helping free the world from Hitler’s wrath.
Johnny Cash in Prison
Legendary singer Johnny Cash was not put in prison, but he did perform for people incarcerated in Folsom Prison. His legendary performance was recorded and turned into an album that eventually became a massive hit.
His Folsom Prison album was released in May 1968. However, due to its appeal, it was released two times with similar success. Cash has sold 90 million records all over the world and is considered one of the best-selling music artists.
Corsair Crash
The Vought F4U Corsair is a lightning-fast aircraft carrier used during the Second World War. It boasts a 446-mile-per-hour speed as well as a 41-foot wingspan. Don’t be fooled by its miniature look. It is a fast and furious vehicle similarly used during the Korean War.
It is no wonder though that it crashed on an aircraft – as shown by this picture. It is unclear if the pilot survived. This aircraft is known for its unique whistling sound thus earning the label of "Whistling Death" mainly due to the sound of its engine.
Bonnie and Clyde’s Car
Bonnie and Clyde’s life was popularised in movies. Their deaths were similar if not more dramatic than how it was portrayed in the movies. These criminals became popular during the Great Depression. However, their life on the run ended in May 1934.
Bonnie and Clyde were shot to death by police. They were escaping authorities after numerous years of robbing banks and escaping the penitentiary system. Let their lives serve as a lesson for all.
