If I could witness any historical event firsthand, I would choose to witness the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.

For me it depends on what part of history. Modern, probably Jimi Hendrix playing at Woodstock, the Star-Spangled Banner. Middle-Ages it would be the Vikings landing at lindisfarn or Greenland.
