A mine is terrible thing to waste
elbac
he's still walking

when you don't have all the tools but the job needs to get done anyway

Tbh if it goes off that bomb suit isn't helping much

How can you win against a people that casually move live munitions around with a cigarette like that. Ukrainians have balls.

On one hand, Ottawa convention made mines that can be detonated by a person illegal. On the other, Russia didn't sign it.
SamuthNBS
And have reportedly dropped thousands of butterfly mines
EroticZombiePants
I remember reading of people training rats to find mines because they are too light to trigger them.
sunyudai
Those were antipersonnel mines, not antitank mines.

And then there's the Finnish version, which involves playing the Säkkijärven polkka on a constant loop. https://youtu.be/uMszu_VgMfY

Dad jokes up in here!Herr!! Lol
Yup.

He's not disarming it, he's gonna go find a Russian tank to put it in front of.

Right to bear mines!
I always thought bears come from bird-and-the-bees breeding. But if you can mine them, all the better.
Egudahl
Videos that end too soon. Hope it ended well. Seems like it could have been tragic
Longer version of video has him walking quite a ways into the woods, but still ends before he sets down the mine.
Quantum3D
That is an anti-tank mine. Common ones have a 150kg trigger on the top. You could stand on it and it wouldn't activate. Still very brave!
pyr0kid
i am unsure about that, it is a russian mine and i am very heavy.
Haha, well I was referring to the person carrying it, he doesn't look like we weights 150kg
The only danger is picking it up (it might be booby trapped or have an anti tampering switch on the bottom). It's safe to carry after pickup
AGuyThatLikesGuns
I'm shocked that guy is not wearing a kilt, No way his huge balls are fitting in them jeans.
GoddForBidd
Those things at the ends of his legs? They ain't feet.
J3lek
He wasn't walking funny because he was afraid to jostle the mine. It was because his balls barely fit in his jeans.
CoffeeDaemon
The guy actually has no legs....
WickedSludge
The cigarette is key.
ThrownClub
You can filter harmful fumes through the cigarette and remember your safety squints
I'd imagine it helped calm his nerves. Even if only an insurmountable amount.
Eilonwyy
I mean, otherwise he'd have to put it down. And good smokes are hard to come by.
TheMagicOfTacoCatScience
Haha, I thought the exact same thing, the second I saw the image, lol!
Bonchoman
No safety crocs in sight, very disappointed.

It’s an AT mine. You could throw it and it wouldn’t blow up.
Hangonthere
This is NOT true, repeat, NOT true. Source: Friend is building ammunition destroying facilities. These mines often have built in security!
MeowWoof
It's also a "know your mines" situation. That mine isn't designed to blow up unless a car drives over the pressure plate.
IsThereAProblemOfficer
Yeah it takes about 60kg to set it off, although they can be made to detonate with tampering.
FYI -- Could easily make fake replicas from wood. Tank drivers would have to treat as real (or take their chances).
ThatOtherGirlYouKnow
Paint an upside-down dinner plate. It looks enough like a mine from a distance that invading force has to slow down to check. Ambush point.
edwardelricsnipples
The Taliban spent the last 20 years teaching the world how to deal with this
LupusLilium
Fun idea, take empty gas tanks like tall metal ones, place next to roads, partially cover with debris where it's kind of hidden but obvious.
Just go with psyops and fake-outs for 'obvious IED' and plant them along roads.
uoeno
Good ol' guerilla warfare.
RARusk
What about gorilla warfare. Dicks out and all that.
