This is video of a fuel tanker sliding over the rail on I-95 this AM and EXPLODING shortly after.

I like how the tanker slides through nicely but the lil' boat seems to smash up against wall multiple times @ 0:23.

Boy, that telephone/electrical wire gives me the heebie jeebies...(the one you can see between the tanker and the field, on the poles, in the early outside of the chopper shots)

IronHulk! *cough*

Then again maybe, like The Avengers trailers, they're not showing the good stuff.

I hate it when they CGI robots. The Terminator (after the tanker esplodes and is chasing Sarah through the factory) is still God Emperor of robot filming.

Wow... look at all that "smoke" coming from a tanker car. Let me open the window to really smell it...

Just crossing a shipping lane is freaky. I just to sail a lot in my teens and you don't wanna be anywhere near those big tankers. I live in a coastal town that can dock every kind of ship there is, including the gigatankers. Being in a 7m boat among those is really scary.

APFSDS - Armour Piercing, Fin Stabilized, Discarding Sabot. The American Abrams tankers used to call them 'Silver Bullets' back in the early nineties; maybe they still do. They were made largely out of natural or depleted uranium and they combusted slightly when shot through the air, leaving a faint glowing silvery trail behind. You could see it best at night obviously.

Maybe the pet fawn is a way for the programmers to deny the game's inherent violence? All I wanna do is raise that thing into a full-grown accomplice for my next flying-tank and gasoline-tanker jewelry heist with optional jet-pack getaway...

I sail (and race) a fair bit, and recently heard what professionals like tanker crews call us: WAFIs... Wind Assisted Fucking Idiots.

Very true.

What I'm wondering is when does the Ruskie fire brigade get to call out this service? Is it reserved for former party members and the criminal elite or are Uri and Magda *Cysiet entitled to the air-tanker service?
