After spending about 5' Googling I am dissappointed to report that absolutely naff all of note happened on the day of my birth 7/3/1959. It gets worse, no one even vaguely famous shares my exact birthdate, for the same birthday I can claim Captain Cook, Rik Mayall, Rachel Weizz and Ivan Lendl, plus a young lady by the name of Chelsea Charms who probably stars in "special films" by the look of her pic. but sadly has not seen her feet for many years.

Don't despair....Albion beat Scunthorpe 2-1 that day at home.
Best I can do is that this was number one ( hardly a world event though ! ) :

Valery Bykovsky was launched into orbit by the Soviet Union on board Vostok 5. Bykovsky would spend almost five days in space, breaking the record recently set by American astronaut Gordon Cooper, and making 82 orbits before returning on June 19, at the same time as Vostok 6 and Valentina Tereshkova.

Don't need Youtube to know that England beat Argentina 1-0 in the World Cup Quarter Finals, going on to lift the trophy one week later. This is almost certainly the only time in my lifetime that this will happen!

We have a winner. The assassination of Martin Luther King's got nothing on that. God Save Doug Loft.
