Now for something different. Some military practice an amphibious landing, except they landed in quicksand by mistake.

That video is quite funny. The tank that crashed with its cannon in the ground is a Merkava I think, cant say for sure. Maybe some crazy IDF guy went gung-ho over the edge.

The craziest picture for me was when one tank rode up the end of another! Cant imagine that happening. Both are the same type of tank.

Looks like another tank in trouble, I guess that its an impromptu tank trap. Surprising they couldn't't get out of that one

Yet another tank accident. I wonder how the people got out, and even how it managed to roll over on what looks like even ground.

I suppose in this case somone took their eyes off the road. Its a lucky stop, as it seems to be a long way down.

Netty, I noticed you often wonder how the soldiers managed to pull some silly stunt off.
Given a tank, a jeep, a rifle or simply a straight pin and some silly putty, a soldier can come up with some really stupid ideas and wild and interesting ways of damaging equipment and getting into trouble.

I imagine this is the same in every country's military! :tu
