Here is also a good round-up of the Tiananmen '89 at Epoch Times: http://epochtim.es/s9Nz

What I didn't know is that according to the Chinese dissident Wei Jingsheng, the "Tank Man" life ended that day, when he ran out in front of another column of tanks from a different unit, which didn't stop and smashed him...Wei got this information from his former classmate, who was a commander of that tank column on the iconic photo.
