Some iconic events around the world usually are alive in our minds for a long but what if you could also see another angle to some of these wonders?
Here are some pictures that will give you a new perspective of some historic events happening in the past. Surely, you’ll be surprised by many such pictures. Have a look:
* We all have seen and read about the Twin Towers collapsing on 09/11 in the US. The incident might still be fresh in our memories although we might just imagine being there. But did we ever have a look at the spectators viewing the collapse in real life? This photo will take you to them:

* The Space Shuttle Challenger disaster was a fatal accident in the United States’ space program that occurred on January 28, 1986, when the Space Shuttle Challenger broke apart 73 seconds into its flight, killing all seven crew members aboard. Now imagine having looked at this incident with your naked eye.

* We all know that Neil Armstrong was the first one to step on the moon followed by another astronaut Buzz Aldrin. The space shuttle which took off in 1969 has created history. Now, have a look at Neil Armstrong’s family watching the take-off of their dear one on the journey of making history:

* As we imagine the Statue of Liberty, we think of a well-built statue standing in the middle of New York city. However, how many of us know that the statue was displayed in parts at the 1878 Paris world fair before being fully assembled and shipped to the United States? Have a look at some pictures from the fair:

* When we think of Egypt, it is either about the Pyramids or the mask of Tutankhamun. The Tutankhamuns mask is a gold mask of the 18th-dynasty ancient Egyptian Pharaoh Tutankhamun. Presently housed in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, the mask was discovered by Howard Carter in 1925 in tomb KV62 in the Valley of the Kings. However, we always forget that there could also be a backside to the mask. Here’s how it looks:
