KILLDOZER (The true story of a mad man and his bullet proof bulldozer)

[MrNobody]

I searched the site and I found it lacking in one category: KILLDOZER. I just found out about this a week ago and have been fascinated with it ever since. One man builds a bullet proof bulldozer and careens through the town. No one was hurt (except for him) He spent a year and a half designing this thing and did over 7 million dollars worth of damage.

Should have used a tank to stop it.

I just read the wikipedia, they had called the national guard. Looks like they were planning on it.

That would be awesome for a Zombie invasion...or if Barak is elected ;-D That guy was nuts but definitely gifted and talented when it came to building stuff. I cant believe I had never heard of this before.

We've been talking about this at work for a week now. This completely slipped by me at the time, but now I'm fascinated. This guy mounted a Barrett .50 and an FAL inside, and tv's so he could drive and shoot without exposing himself. He was finally stopped when he drove through a building that he didn't know had a basement. He went through the floor, got trapped and killed himself.

I make them call me Captain Killdozer at work now.

Holy crap there some funny stuff on that site. I loved the one about Bear Grylls.
