    what happened to that poor brave man.

    He probably went home to clean up, and later hooked up with some PLA Chad for a romantic dinner. When he climbed on the tank for a chat he was actually exchanging numbers.

      My theory, based on the fact that he had a shopping bag, was that the dude in the tank was his son:

      “Hey, didn’t I tell you grandma and grandpa are coming over tonight?”

      “Uh, yeah dad, could we talk about this later?”

      “No. And do you remember how I specifically asked you to pick up some lettuce and tomatoes on the way to work?”

      “Uh, dad, we’re kind of holding up traffic here… WHAT THE HELL, DAD PLEASE GET OFF THE TANK, PLEASE, YOU’RE EMBARASSING ME”

      Tank Man was later given a medal for Most Epic Dad Moment
