Those boys were VERY lucky (thankfully so)...the IED was poorly placed; buried too deep.

Good job it wasn't one of these



And these chaps are VERY VERY lucky!



Here...on the other hand, is how to stack luck in your favour



:D ;D :D :-bd

Love it!

I'm liking the mine detection there, just drive a tank over it, it'll be right....!

Didn't I read somewhere that a Centurion was used in nuclear testing and was still driveable afterwards?

I'm sure I've read that they used to do that in Vietnam, race two M48's up a main road side by side every morning to check for mines.

Yes, an Australian one, it's quite famous. Google for "centurion atomic tank". It's still around, presumably preserved, in Australia.
