    You did the best in person coverage of this incident than any other to date and thank you very much for doing that!

  • @TommyTheCat42

    I remember when this happened, I had a friend who lived on the tank route and witnessed the tank driving by his house!
    I guess if you’re gonna snap then that’s the way you do it… imagine if he was able to shoot the cannon?!!

    • @imaflyinmiget5499
      @imaflyinmiget5499 Před 7 měsíci +9

      He probably wasnt able to shoot the cannon, as he was a tank driver and not a turret man. He still might've been able to, but chances are there were no shells in the tank.

    • @southwestxnorthwest
      @southwestxnorthwest Před 7 měsíci +8

      He wouldn't have been able to even if he had any HE tank rounds because the M60 wasn't capable of firing its main gun while it was driving or moving. He'd have had to stop, load it manually since the M60 never had an autoloader, sight and aim, and then fire. There's no way He'd have the time or ability to do this. I drove an M60 in AIT following basic training and getting in and out of the driver's seat isn't easy.

      ​@@imaflyinmiget5499correct, that armament would have been stored in a secure ammo holding area and only issued under supervision

  • @ryanpitasky487
    @ryanpitasky487 Před 7 měsíci +8

    I think the answer to "why couldn't anyone stop the tank" was "it was a tank"

    I absolutely do not remember this happening! Wow...usually the tanks you see in front of an armory are just a shell. They couldn't drive away no matter who tried. He had to have known that one he got into was a valid, working vehicle and it had diesel in the fuel tank, ready to be driven away. That's crazy! Bless his heart, I feel bad for him. His life just fell apart, and so he decided to go out loud and proud. He will certainly never be forgotten! By the way, I'm envious of your t-shirt...love the Goonies!!❤ Thanks for telling us this story.

  • @edwardnulton7228

  • @Ganiscol
    @Ganiscol Před 7 měsíci +11

    Saw this on TV when it happened and was surprised that the National Guard had no contingency plan in place to quickly disable any tracked vehicle that needed to be stopped, which isnt that difficult even without actually destroying it. You only need to take out one track with a relatively small explosive charge. But you gotta be prepared for that.
    And then 9 years later, Killdozer thing happened and yet still nobody was ready to deal with it.

    • @greensteve9307
      @greensteve9307 Před 7 měsíci +1

      What's strange to me is that this man's attacks seem to be random, whereas Killdozer specifically went after people that he claimed had wronged him.

  • @alienshroom1

    My husband, me, and two young sons lived in the military housing just blocks away from this event. The power was knocked out on our street. Luckily, he wasn't down the street we lived on. We saw everything happening in real time as it went down. Pretty crazy!

    That's an absolute great video you did. It's sad what happened to the guy. He really could of worked through his issues though even with all that happened to him.

    I remember watching this when it happened. Nobody talks about tank guy, just Killdozer (which I also watched live, lol). The hospital probably saw who it was and decided before he was even in the ER that he wasn't gonna make it
