Surely the classic example, and from which it gets its name is from people claiming they remember where they were when they heard that Nelson Mandela had died in prison.

The problem though is that, of course, Mandela didn’t die in prison, was released* and eventually became President of South Africa.

* Personally I do remember the TV coverage of his release and him walking out of the prison.
