Left a loaded tank lying around....

Anyone seen this crazyness?

Apparently the Ukraine army somehow forgot about this tank and left it, fueled and loaded, in the middle of the street.

People got curious and eventually ventured inside until someone got a shot off...

So yeah, don't leave your toys lying around or the kids will get into them...

Couldn't find it in the shopping centre car park maybe? :-)
There's still a few of Wile. E Coyote's ideas that I haven't tried yet.

I think they'll be able to squeeze the words ordinance and explosives somewhere in there which might pull it out of the B neighbourhood :P

Stupid question?

But I guess there are no keys or anything like that for a tank...

If someone got in and fired it, I guess they could have drove it off too? (if they could figure out how)

That would be some survivalists dream come true!

Find a stocked tank sitting on the road for him to drive out of the city :lol:
