Most memorable has to be 9/11 because people will be talking about it forever like the world wars.
The biggest in terms of impact has to be the tsunami but because it was a natural disaster that didn't affect the west too much we can accept it and move on much easier.
Obama? If he'd been elected 30 years ago it would've been the biggest thing ever and probably would never be surpassed. For it to happen now though is nothing extraordinary imo.
Diana? Yeah whatever. Very upsetting short term to a lot of people but shouldn't be in this list.
Berlin wall? A much bigger event than most give it credit for i think. Largely misunderstood so not as relevant as it should be to many people today myself included tbh.
Meh 9/11 lead to a lot of things that have affected more people than the Tsunami. The Berlin wall was obv huge but was more a symbolic end to something rather than a sudden change. 9/11 the world changed live on TV, it was the largest unexpected event ever and will be hard to surpass.

Very hard to surpass - no wonder Bin Laden's been quiet ever since. The same thing happened to the Stone Roses.

Even with all the rest listed, 9/11 would still come out on top.
That said...Diana, Obama and the Berlin Wall might struggle a bit with John Lennon thrown into the mix.

Very hard to surpass - no wonder Bin Laden's been quiet ever since. The same thing happened to the Stone Roses. In all seriousness, what has happened to Bin Laden? Simply hiding in caves? He's secretly living in a mansion in Beverly Hills, surrounded by hookers and cocaine, all paid for by the CIA, and all he has to do in return is record a message denouncing America every few months.
