Today in history

Here are just some of the events on this date in the past.
On this day in 1901: Annie Edson Taylor, a 63-year-old schoolteacher from Bay City, Michigan, became the first person to survive a barrel ride over Niagara Falls. She designed and built her own barrel, which had cushions and a leather harness, and was screwed shut and pumped full of oxygen.
In 1929: The U.S. stock market experienced a significant crash, setting off several days of “panic selling” that led to a drastic fall in stock prices and marked the beginning of the Great Depression. The day is often referred to as “Black Thursday.”
In 1945: The United Nations was officially established after the U.N. Charter was ratified by the five permanent members of the Security Council – the United States, United Kingdom, France, Soviet Union and China – and the majority of the other signatories.
In 1956: The Suez Crisis, a conflict that had significant geopolitical ramifications, began when Israel – followed by the U.K. and France – invaded Egypt in an effort to oust Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser and regain control of the Suez Canal.
In 1973: The United Nations brokered a cease-fire between Israel and a coalition of Arab states led by Egypt and Syria, essentially ending the Yom Kippur War.
In 2012: Hurricane Sandy intensified into a powerful storm that caused widespread destruction along the East Coast, particularly in New York and New Jersey, killing more than 200 people.
