Nope, looked a wee bit like a Barret L-82, didn't t. :)
Looks like an absolute blast, wish I could take my son there - he'd go NUTS.

Like taking a cruise, there are some things that lose their draw after you've been paid to do it.

Back when I was much younger I lived near Ft. Jackson, SC. A neighbor who was an army doctor had to go get his tank certification renewed. He asked me if I wanted to go take a ride. Duh??????

It was a blast. Those things can turn on a dime. He did so throwing my hip up against the porthole which gave me a nice purple bruise. Wore it as a badge of honor. It was a lot of fun despite the injury.

Pricing

Not exactly cheap, but I guess they have to pay the bills somehow. And I'm sure maintaining the fleet isn't exactly cheap, nor is ammo.

I would do the $399 deal, maybe pay a bit extra to shoot the MG42 afterwards:smoke2:

More Tank Testing

I wonder what happens when the test fails?

Lots of dirty suits, some dirty tarmac, and two dirty tracks (Okay, that was mean).


By the way, nice gag that they all pretend to be surprised that the tank stopped behind them.
Like they were just so happening to stand there, and didn't hear the damn thing approaching.

A couple of them turned around. I think they were all suppose to stay facing forward but some just couldn't do it.

To me, it looked like they knew it was comings up behind them, but didn't realize just how fast or how close it would stop.

If they had locked up the treads on the tank instead of controlled braking the guys inside of the tank could be hurt or dead.
