I had just finished third grade when this happened. I was hit by a car the last week of school and was in a full body cast that went from my rib cage down my left leg to my foot. I watched the chase on tv and the subsequent trial while I healed. I had no frame of reference at the time but damned if the trial didn’t happen pretty quickly after the event. The chase itself was on just about every channel of network tv from what I remember. Formative memory.
Similar to John Kerry’s bunny suit photo… In the US you can be an absolute shit of a person, but don’t you dare let someone take an unflattering of you or the American people won’t vote for you.
The Tank Museum channel on YT has really good information on tanks like this one. They explain each tank in depth with dry British humor. I fell madly in love with one of their 70-80 year old curators who was adorably frank about everything.
