Fake.

No dust cloud blow-over on people in front.

Nice try.

Well, as I used to say in my safety briefings.....

“Tanks are designed to kill. They like to kill. They don’t care if they kill the enemy or you. Don’t be afraid of them, but don’t give them the opportunity to kill you.”

If they did it for recruiting.....OK. If they did it for s**ts and giggles.....not so OK.

How come when people’s feet are halfway on the pavement and halfway on the grassthere is no change in the level or angle of their feet?

I see what you’re talking about. Maybe, maybe not. I sure as hell wouldn’t stand in front of a charging tank. That much mass at that speed could very easily just come unstuck from the pavement and...splat!

The people are slightly out of focus at one point, while the tank is perfectly in focus. They are in two different focal planes. The people were shot in front of a blue screen and pasted over the other scene.

I don’t see the feet thing, I say real because I see the pant legs blowing from the air movement coming from the MBT.
