Isegrim Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Holy cow! One of the really worse things of the T-72 is that the ammo storage is inside the Turret. It is placed at the inside around the hull of the turret. The guy is surely the Commander which was pushed out from the power of the impact or jumped out by very short reaction to the Backtop of the Tank. A REALY LUCKY COMMANDER.

I don't think this guy is part of the tank crew at all. If you look closely at 00:56-00:58 you can see movement at the rear left side of the tank. This guy is probably a soldier using the tank as cover, and he got lucky cause the tank indeed shielded him from the blast.

Griffin Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) I disagree. It's almost clearly visible that at 1:06 you can see him tumble from the turret onto the other side. The condition of his clothes matches with this. I replayed that part dozens of times when I first saw the clip to confirm myself what's going on. I wouldn't say he's that lucky. Yes he survived but I wonder how agonizing it will be in the hospital for many months with those terrible burns. Probably most of his lower body is totally burned. How many skin transplants? How many toes burned off? Ever seen the WW2 pilots with burned faces? Edited April 26, 2013 by Griffin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
104th_Cobra Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 The main cause of death after extensive 2nd/3rd degree burns are the secondary bacterial infections on the wounds. The himunnitary defenses system, simply are not up to the bacterial attack, even with antibiotic treatment. 104th Cobra [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rincevent Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Apparently the cargo broke loose and shifted aft, causing the aircraft to pitch up hence the stall. That must be a tough situation, knowing that there is nothing you can do to control the aircraft :( How can you govern a country which has 246 varieties of cheese?

Griffin Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I'm wondering what the engine stall has to do with this. If the center of gravity is way back, no amount of engine power (don't be a smart ass) would help in that case if it's completely impossible to level the aircraft.

Fjordmonkey Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Center of gravity shift due to loose cargo, stressed out pilots attempting a too nose-high climb-profile or too early rotation-speed, mechanical failure in some component, or maybe a combination of all of them. Impossible to tell until the NTSB has put forth their report. Regards Fjordmonkey Clustermunitions is just another way of saying that you don't like someone.
