How close were we? Was there a pivotal moment where an individual hero saved the day, or maybe something completely different? Just trying to get a handle on the truth of the matter, I don't seem to know very much about the specific details of that infamous day where our most precious institution hung in the balance (if I'm understanding correctly).
