Has anyone seen the video of the attempted suidice bombing of the M1 tank? Car didn't explode, and the driver was trapped in the car.

They had EOD come and dispatch the the car and driver with C4, placed via robot.

If this isn't a dupe, I'll see about hosting it fo download....

Unless someone else has a fast connection to do it with.

It's 4 MB in WMV format...

Okay... to download the video, go Here and download Assisted(EOD).

And feel free to down any of the other manuals that are there if you need them, or just look at the other stuff I have in the links up top...

ETA: Here is the text of the e-mail:

Here is the text of the e-mail:

Subject: IED Video-- Assisted Suicide ***CAUTION- VERY GRAPHIC***

Bottom line: This is a terrorist who thought he was going to destroy an M1 Abrams tank by ramming his compact car loaded with old artillery shells into it. They don't detonate, leaving the driver alive, and pinned by his legs under the dashboard. He is still very dangerous, so the good guys from IED send in a robot to place a nice little American device (C4) under the bad guys car in order to destroy all remaining ordinance in the car. Did I mention the bad guy is pinned under the dashboard alive? Oh yeah...The photos and video you see of your friendly local terrorist, are compliments of the robot's camera monitor....Anyway, he's a good terrorist now!! (Dead) And ......he got what he really wanted!!! Let those pinko commy liberals watch this brand of justice!!! The Bigger explosion at the end is from the artillery shells he had loaded up in his ride.

See total story of details below...


Subject: Video of suicide bomber being "assisted"

This sequence is of a suicide bomber in Baghdad, who attempted to ram
an explosives-packed car into an Abrams tank and destroy it.

The attempt failed; all the explosives in the car did not detonate.
The car was partially destroyed and the driver wounded, but he was still
capable of detonating a further charge. This was a very dangerous situation, so
the Army and Iraqi police closed the road to traffic, and an ordnance
detachment used a tracked, remote-controlled robot to approach the car, take
pictures of it and its dazed driver, then place a demolition charge beside it,
and "assist" the driver in completing his own suicide.

Even after destroying the car and killing the driver, a package of
several undetonated artillery shells and land mines is seen remaining on the
pavement. In the last frames, they seen being blown by the EOD people
in a  field at a remote site.. Note the size of this explosion, which would
have taken place beside the Abrams tank, if the suicide driver's car had
originally detonated as planned.

The accompanying description reads as follows: "The pictures and video
are from the EOD (explosive ordnance disposal) robot you'll see in the
video. If you look closely in the picture of the inside of the car you can see
projectiles and  explosives used as the primary explosive charge
(you'll see them later as  well). The guy is still alive and can still function
the device, so what do you do?  Army EOD  knows; just place an "explosive disruption tool"
under said  vehicle to "disrupt" the explosives and their initiators... along
with the suicide bomber.

Good video taken by an EOD  robot. Interesting! VERY GRAPHIC!!!

Explain more of what happened.  Did he try to run a blockaid and the vehicle was disabled and then he just exploded his IED?  They need a P90 on that drone.

So, what do you get in heaven for a botched suicide bombing atempt?

I thought it would have all exploded when the robot laid the C4...

It appeared that way, didn't it?

I wonder if it occoured to him that they were going to blow him up instead of risk their ass trying to save his sorry terrorist skin....

    It looked like he was holding a cylindrical object (arty shell ?) on his lap. I'll bet as soon as someone tried to rescue his ass he would have slammed the fuse /nose on the pavement .

  I'll bet he had NO idea they were going to blow him up in place. That's what these bastards do, try to use our own sense of decency against us. Too bad for him we were fresh out .



  Cocksucker.

Probably would have done quite a bit of damage to the tank, if not destroying it...

The charge used in that video was not C4.  It was a disruptor using water and a small amount of explosives.  What they were actually trying to do, I beleive, was save the mans life and disrupt the IED.  If the had used just C4 the entire car would have been blown tho shit including the IED which would most likely went off.

I wouldnt expect anyone to live through the explosives placed there, unless they are one lucky SOB....which this guy obviously was not.

What I am wondering is....did the guys in the tank even feel the impact?

Yeah, I think C4 would do alot more damage than what happened to that hunk of a car. Looks like the POS got trapped when he crashed it into the tank. Did you guys see the look on his face, he was scared to hell what was gonna happen. No rush in adrenaline, just sitting out in the open, waiting. In pain, stuck in his car wreck.

That video made my day.
