Hold My Beer


Many battle tanks throughout history have become feared opponents in the theatre of war, yet not all of them can brag about the ability to balance a beer on their gun like the German Leopard 2 tank.

Using its well-crafted suspension and level turret, the tank was so stable it could balance a tankard glass of beer on the end of its 120mm gun. Still the most German way to showcase a Tank. This tank going at ~40 km an hour can hold a glass steadier than me walking at the slowest pace a human can walk. The insane level of engineering it takes for a tank to be able to do that whilst simultaneously being desgined to take artillery fire is incredible, hats off to those engineers and mechanics.

*America: we have good gun stabilization. *Germany: hold my beer.
