In my head canon, they disassembled it completely and rebuilt it in the trailer.

Tip trailer onto its side.
Drive BMP into trailer.
Roll trailer back onto the wheels.

I think it's actually an APC, which is probably around 1/3 the weight of a tank.

Still, it's pretty insane.

If you have trailer with walls strong enough to do that, I am extremely interested.

I wonder if you had a strong enough wall you can use the gun barrell to tip the tank over.

Not a trick though. Flip trailer onto it's side. Drive BMP in. Flip trailer back up. Easy.

Pressure differential will gently caress you up and pretty much end your life instantly. Unless the pressure gradient is relatively shallow like in that video. Then you still die, but in agonizing pain the entire time.

The worst is probably the Byford Dolphin, when the locking system procedure was not followed and there were no mechanical fail-safes. Five people died of explosive decompression, with the worst being the diver closest to the door (he was trying to shut it).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byford_Dolphin

quote:

Subsequent investigation by forensic pathologists determined Hellevik, being exposed to the highest pressure gradient and in the process of moving to secure the inner door, was forced through the 60 centimetres (24 in) in diameter opening created by the jammed interior trunk door by escaping air and violently dismembered, including bisection of the thoracoabdominal cavity which further resulted in expulsion of all internal organs of the chest and abdomen except the trachea and a section of small intestine and of the thoracic spine and projecting them some distance, one section later being found 10 metres (30 ft) vertically above the exterior pressure door.

i was already familiar with the byford dolphin accident but today i used sci-hub to get the full paper An Explosive Decompression Accident

did you know that if you type "byford dolphin" into google image search results, the very first image is not a picture of the oil rig, but a color photo of the arranged remains of the diver who disintegrated?

it took me a moment to figure out what the hell i was looking at

don't search for that

edit: goddammit i scrolled to the next page in the paper and found more photos

edit: loving jesus poo poo they found his face and thre's a picture of it

don't get this paper

i just wanted to read something

Those extensions are on each side and they're pure, 100% scaffolding underneath them.

It's OK though, because a FIFA spokesman said
