The days the Earth stood still

Elvis Presley dies

When a major historical event takes place they say you'll never forget where you were when you heard the news.

From Neil Armstrong walking on the moon to 9/11, few events over the last century have had a core-rattling effect like these.

Take a look back at the days the Earth stood still ... Don't be cruel: He's still alive! Depending on your
level of fandom, you either believe or don't believe pop legend Elvis Presley died on Aug. 16, 1977, at the age of 42, of a massive heart attack, likely brought on by heavy drug
dependency.
