Hope they have a bottom escape hatch.

A fluorescent safety belt could have prevented such a disaster IMO.

OSHA much?

Only in Russia lol

Considering you could have moved both pieces maybe a quarter of a mile from they location they were in and probably driven the damn thing straight on the truck without issue, that’s pretty damn stupid.
Of course that is not to say some of our most stalwart defenders haven’t been known to do similar things without adult supervision.

You sir win three Internets.

“With friends like this, who needs enemies”.

Just think how many people wished they could have taken out that mobile artillery . . .

“Here, hold my vodka.”

“EYyyyee, Yhhhhiii, yhiii”- works in every language. (0:52)

I was thinking the dude is either vodka drunk or having withdrawals cause he hadn’t started drinking yet.

Even in the Ukraine, I think they could be drunk but not enough to stop the DTs.

I want to see them try to traverse the turret to use the barrel to right itself…

Jump to 3:20, thanks OP.

Awthum!

Also, not a knock to the OP but as I started watching the video I really hoped it was going to go in a different direction… “Treat all main tank guns as they are loaded at all times…”

Press X to flip tank

Respawn in 10…

Me too, then I realized the camera guy would get spall and shrapnel to bad.

This is when you either put all the C4 on the other side to try and blast it right side up, or have your buddy grab an Abrams and push it over.

Or you stand there in the shade for a photo op and the damn thing rolls right back over on it’s tracks with you underneath it.

LOL, I was thinking the same thing. No way I’d stand close to something that heavy while it is turned over.
