Hitler has only got one ball, and it’s this one
goddamn the nazis wasted so many resources on meth induced delusions
To be fair, we had some wacky ideas too, like fart psyops and bat bombs
And for this we should be eternally grateful.
fair point.
Huh. We should give Trump some meth.
you want him more erratic and shitbrained?
According to the German Wikipedia, there are some hints, that this machine wasnt built by the Nazis.
German Quote:
Es gibt aber auch die Vermutung, dass es sich in Wirklichkeit gar nicht um einen Panzer deutscher Fertigung handelt und die obigen Vermutungen nicht zutreffen[2], sondern es sich um einen Scherz russischer Produktion handelt:
“Der Panzer wäre für ein Aufklärungsfahrzeug viel zu auffällig und zu langsam Das kleine Heckrad würde sich im Gelände sofort festfahren Die Panzerung ist völlig ungenügend Die Schweißnähte am Exponat sind derart minderer Qualität, dass es eher nach russischer als nach deutscher Produktion aussieht. Es gibt weder in deutschen noch in russischen Archiven irgendeinen Hinweis auf den Bau oder die Erbeutung dieses Gerätes, was bei einem so außergewöhnlichen Gerät sehr unwahrscheinlich ist.”
"However, there is also speculation that it is not actually a German-made tank and that the above assumptions are incorrect[2], but rather that it is a Russian-made hoax:
The tank would be far too conspicuous and too slow to serve as a reconnaissance vehicle The small rear wheel would immediately get stuck in rough terrain The armor is completely inadequate The welds on the exhibit are of such poor quality that it looks more like a Russian than a German product. There is no mention whatsoever in either German or Russian archives of the construction or capture of this vehicle, which is highly unlikely for such an extraordinary piece of equipment.
Übersetzt mit DeepL (https://dee.pl/apps)"
The only exbibit is placed in a russian tank museum.
But at the end of the war, the nazis designed and built a lot of wild/useless stuff. Like this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landkreuzer_P._1000_Ratte
The welds on the exhibit are of such poor quality that it looks more like a Russian than a German product.
That’s some classic German shade.
I could absolutely buy it as a random prototype, this is exactly the kind of thing that got made at the end, when they were desperate to make every soldier count.
Almost looks like it’s using Fred Flintstone propulsion.
actually, it uses the kind of engine that makes the Crazy Frog sound
The vehicle was powered by a single-cylindertwo-stroke motorcycle engine.
Not unlike the Crazy Frog car then! Of which am a long time fan.
You put the wrong link, here it is

Amazing Wikipedia page, thank you.
How did I not know about this, that’s amazing.
