Military Fantasy Camps - Tank Driving School
Tank Driving School

In Germany, there’s a little town called Beerfelde where men and women can get a taste of what it’s like to joy ride in a giant, 600-horsepower old Soviet tank. At this “Tank Driving School,” you can even earn your tank-driving license.

This little-boy-fantasy-come-true experience costs about $200 for 40 minutes. Don helmets, pull levers to maneuver the former war vehicle with very limited visibility, and pay extra to crush cars. All in all, it’s a rewarding experience for desk jockeys and paper pushers alike. In uncertain times, it might just be the new middle-aged-crisis dream car.

At the end of their maiden drive, most new tank commanders emerge covered in dust and glory to pose proudly with elbows resting on the hatch like battle-hardened veterans. (smh.au)
