The armored bulldozer!

mimo2005 · 08-11-2006, 04:02 PM

Wicked video of a man who single-handedly terrorized the small town of Granby, Colorado with his self-customized armored bulldozer in June, 2004. Marvin Heemeyer — enraged at the town council over a zoning dispute that closed his welding business — demolishing large parts of Granby for 90 minutes, despite local police efforts to stop him.
At the end , he stoped himself .

ps : the face off of the 2 bulldozers reminded me of Godzilla & Mothra.

Holy cow. He obviously had some talent with building and welding those things... To build a machine that the entire police force could not stop... The video reminded me of comic book/superhero stories... It is actually quite a sad story... He got so desperate that he welded himself into his machine with no way out...

Looks like something the A-Team would build.

That's what the japanese kamikaze pilots would do before going on a mission.
