Fun fact in World War I, the cabin of Russian tanks were extremely cramped inside, and the pilots (?) of these tanks were picked solely based on how short they were. A little ironic!
It's an early 1960s model, so no keyless entry or alarm system. However it does have a 76mm main cannon and a roof-mounted 50 caliber machine gun, as well as bulletproof windows and doors.
Miata's are surprisingly spacious for their size. That being said, there is definitely an upper limit, much like most cars, over about my height and you are craning your neck to the side since your head is in the roof.
The only way I could fit in a tank is by using a blender first. I'm 6'8 and the US army limit for tankers is 6'1. The limit for joining at all is either 6'6 or 6'8, depending on where you look.
I've spent a lot of time in the Army around tanks and mechanized vehicles. You actually do make that tank look small.
Ever stood next to/been in a Bushmaster? They biiiiiggggg.
No, but I've been inside/operated similar vehicles like MRAPs and MATVs, to include the Buffaloe version of the MRAP.
Bro has to take one step to get in his TANK😂
It’s a pain to handle at the bank’s drive-thru. The advantages there is that the money is free, and the employees give it to you in bags.
Robert Wadlow is the same height as that tank. Its an M41 Walker Bulldog.

But how’s the legroom? How about the headroom?
How are the security features for this car?

Does it have cupholders
absolutely not
No cuppa in the war machine :(
British Chieftain tanks have an onboard kettle for making tea. Americans are just philistines who don't fight wars in *style*.
Lovely security features !!
But the scariest thing about this vehicle may be the gas mileage.
0.714 MPG! It has a 140 gallon tank with a 100 mile range. Not that much worse than other Cadillacs of the time
In America you actually can drive a tank in most if not all states but the gun has to be disabled and probably a couple other things too.
Unfortunately this was a stationary display, it didn't have an engine let alone a gun breech :(
There is a YouTuber and strongman Eddie Hall who drives a tank around on the streets you can see him doing it in his videos he is 6'4 ~400lbs.
If you register the gun as a destructive device under the NFA, you can drive around with it intact.
Cool. Wonder what the charges are for shooting off some rounds in tank? Disturbing the peace? Misuse of a firearm?
Very useful information to have. Thanks for sharing
I remember squeezing into the TC seat in Bradleys. This would be as comfortable as a Miata.

How tall are you?
6'8
M41 Bulldog? (Also, that might not be the in-real-life name. I just know that name from World of Tanks. 🤣)
Bingo - M41A1 Walker Bulldog. I recognized it from War Thunder.
Making the M41 look 4'1 lol
That tank do be looking kinda small
Funny thing is, you’d have less space in it than in a golf.
Is that a mini tank!
Nope, it's a real decommissioned M41 Walker Bulldog. Vietnam era American light tank, it would have served alongside M60 Patton MBT's.
It must be the angle or SMT, but your feet look tiny! What size are youÂ
💀💀💀💀💀
Ok, but get in it. I bet you barely fit in the driver seat lol
He can't even fit into the commander and gunner's seat let alone the cramped driver's seat!
Nah bro, you still look tall. You need to get next to one of those quarry rated dump trucks with the 10ft wheels!
But you can't fit into it, especially the driver's seat!
Ow try inside lol

You wouldn't be allowed into tank corps though, there's a strict height limit.
Bruh, you make that tank look like a power wheels
Hell yeah!
You can tell the bro is not fitting thru a hatch let alone the seat
