Lithuanian Mayor Fights Illegally Parked Cars — By Crushing Them with a Tank

The mayor of Vilnius got sick of seeing expensive cars parked illegally in his city. His solution? Run them over with a tank. Continue reading

Ripsaw MS1 Homemade Tank

Two things are fantastic when made at home: lemonade and tanks. Two brothers from Maine built this tank they call the Ripsaw MS1. It’s controlled by two people, a driver and a gunner. The most impressive feature is that it can hit 60 MPH in 3.5 seconds and has a top speed of 80 MPH. Not too shabby. Link [via]

Hummer Tank Would Look Great In Rocky IV

Not a lot of information on this incredible mod but as far as I can tell it’s a Hummer H2T (the pickup truck model of the H2) modified with a cool black/green paint job and tank treads. These tracked belts actually work, meaning you could scale some serious mountains with this bad boy. Unfortunately, there’s no word on top speed, meaning this Hummer could be slower than Ryan on a skateboard. Link

Pedal Powered Panzer Fights War, Not Wars

Kick ass pedal powered Panzers are fighting the good fight. The second annual Kensington Kinetic Sculpture Derby inspired a group of guys to construct a human powered Panzer Kampwagen III in 11 days for the purpose of crashing the party. By the time they were finished the tank, they were too tired to crash any party, so they just spent the night in the tank. If you’re in the Philadelphia area, you can visit the tank where it is now... Continue reading

Pussy Cat Playhouse

If your pussy is like mine, all dried up and withered away with boredom and fatigue, you could dupe it into sitting in a tank, airplane or firetruck to look cute for 8 seconds. Your pussy will put out fires, fight wars and even soar the skies. You can dupe your pussy into doing anything if you can get it to sit in a tank. The cardboard playhouses takes some effort to put together but it’s nothing you and your... Continue reading

Fish Communicate Via Movement

No one is sure why Sangmin Bae designed the Rhythmfish system. Perhaps he got lonely and didn’t have anyone to talk to, so he built this device that records the movement of fish and the currents generated by them. The flow sensors inside the tank collect enough data then translate it into an audiovisual response, which is then displayed through a mounted LCD and speakers. Sangmin Bae says: “even if the fish can’t speak and express its feelings in a... Continue reading

If A Clown Owned A Tank

German artist Hans Hermert designed this Balloon Tank with what seems to be a very child-like mindset. With a rainbow collection of colors, the Tank looks like something from a clown’s dream. Complete with an attached balloon gun turret on its top, the Balloon Tank probably wouldn’t do any good in a militairy excursion. From the looks of it, it would do better as a carnival booth game. — Andrew Dobrow Link [via]

The Church Tank: Not Aerodynamic Enough For Battle

The Church Tank is the brainchild of Russian artist Kris Kuksi, and you probably already guessed that it makes a statement about war in the name of religion. It’s not an actual tank, only a model measuring 8″ h 4″ w x 10″ d, but I have a feeling that a full-size version would generate a little too much drag to be practical in battle. —Sean Fallon Link [via]
