HUMVEE: The Ultimate Weapon in Traffic

This video is a bit unsettling in more ways than one. We’ve all heard that it’s not safe for a US military vehicle to come to a stop in downtown Baghdad, and this video shows how these guys must drive to stay alive. Clearly the US Army sends their drivers to the Robby Gordon Baja school of traffic avoidance. It’s a bit scary to think how many pedestrians get caught out by the fast moving monsters, but I guess this falls into the you gotta do what you gotta do category.

Whack a Hummer

One thing about being Canadian is that we don’t get all riled up about all this political nonsense like our neighbours to the south do. Personally, I think the idea of a bunch of kids whacking the shit out of a Humvee full of GI Joe’s is pretty funny.
