On 12 October 1960, Nikita Khrushchev banged his shoe into the desk during a meeting at the United Nations. Or did he?

We all take it for granted. But today, I found some sources saying it never happened, clamining there are no photographs or videofilms from it.

I'm sure I've seen it from TV archives around 1997-1998.
