He made more of a difference in a couple minutes than most stupid faggots on Sup Forums has done in their entire lifetime.

why didn't they just run him over

no the video was a false flag operation

nobody could find him after the """incident"""

yeah.
He was a real hero

>made in china
the man would take less damage than the vehicle

I heard they dragged him off never to be seen again
kind of a shame to not know his name but i bet if you slapped pots and pans around you'd get it eventually

>dragged him off never to be seen again
Yeah that was pretty fucking weird

Join the military and run one of your own people over in a public parade. see what happens.

Weren't they on their way to do that anyway?

Is what that what you think? that their intentions were to run whomever they could over with tanks?

I thought they we on their way to kill protesters or something

the real human bean is the tank driver

...

> on their way to kill protesters or something

Oh maybe, I thought you mean "they were on their way to go run as many people over with tanks as they possibly can".

Wanna guess why?

because he was a paid actor

Well I mean they did use threats and probably did kill a few protesters later, I don't see why this man would matter? Why did they let him inconvenience them when they already were going to do unforgettable things whom the Chinese government is still struggling to make it citizens forget?

Guy just goes out for noodles becomes a hero for for all mankind.

>Chinese superhero government kills him.

>mfw I saw some Chinese democratization activists on NYC doing some protests
>tfw one of them might be the tank man
It was really weird to see those activists doing some sort of protests at time square while some sinages at the place displayed some ads from Chinese govt on investing in their provinces

>saw Chinese activists in NYC
Tank man is from China, what would he be doing in NYC?

Some of those activists went other countries as refugees. Even Korea and Japan have some of those activists as refugees

Beautiful

>I don't see why this man would matter?

to who?

To the guy driving the tank? to the commander of the tank? to the leader of the nation?

It might be the driver didn't want to run him over for moral reasons, might be the commander of the tank wasn't sure if his commander would think that was a good idea for PR reasons.

It is China but damn, I'm pretty sure even their military has to sometimes take things into account when it comes to the relation they have with their public. Their intention was to get the protesters out of there not piss them off even more and add fuel to the fire. Running this guy over just for standing in front of a tank sure was a form of protest but I don't know just didn't seem like squashing him would look like a noble attempt at "keeping control".

fake and gay.
They would have just moved around him in the real world.

what kind of tanks are those?

It'd certainly show not to get in the way of the tanks and the regime.

If it was because of the driver of the tank I imagine he was severely punished later, maybe even death. Which I guess he should have wanted less than killing someone.

one of the most powerful photos in the history of mankind.

actually, animals haven't invented photocameras yet so it's actually one of the most powerful photos in the history of all time. lol.

obviously this is a crude fabrication of the western media to undermine the legitimacy of the Communist Party of China and destabilize the People's Republic of China

the entire """"student""" """"protests"""" were a capitalist plot anyway designed to destroy the glorious achievements of socialism

>not posting full shot

Tank man is dead since already.

Oooh! Enraging!

I don't know about that. I mean I know China is a brutally senseless commie nation but I think even the top people in command would look at this and be like wtf? this is a unique situation, this guy isn't fighting, he's just standing there?. He doesn't look like a protester he looks like some retard that thinks that tank is a bus there to give him a ride just not letting him on and kind of understandable why the tank just wouldn't know how to handle him.

Also I want to add, I'm not sure if that tank is the first one in that small group but I think in the position of a tank in the front of a group you might question your actions a bit more than if you weren't in the lead. What you do kind of dictates what others behind you do and everyone will have seen the action you had taken and "what would they think?".

Balls of steel.

There are many plausible explanations. He went into hiding, was caught by the chink gov...

>human bean
I see what you did there.

he was run over. i grew up in the 80s, i remember it all over the news, him being run over by the tank and the world being in an uproar.

Not too far from the truth.

>bean

Nice try BFG

sound legit

>tfw you will never stand in front of a tank

>i bet if you slapped pots and pans around you'd get it eventually

There are so many chinese and so few chinese names that it would be meaningless. That's why they all use numbers now.

>That's why they all use numbers now.

In about 20 years they will run out of numbers too, whut then?

wow I've never seen the full full shot

holy fuck

balls of steel

Uh no
That's the Berenstein universe
You're in the berenstain universe now boy

They tried, but the tank man shifted his position

>yfw you realize CERN made us all into the show Sliders

oh hi Mark

Tank man could only hold off one tank at a time if they decided to split up. Therefore it is just Jewish propaganda.

the student protestors were american funded democracy activists. who cares if they all died.

I think I'm having a Mandela or something.

I remember this guy being run over, it shocked to world and there was a huge global outcry against the Chinese government. I've watched entire documentaries about it detailing the events, the fallout, and even how the footage was taken and how it made it out of the country.

He was a martyr on par with the monk who burned himself to death in 1963 and the images of him being run over are just as iconic.

I have never believed in this Mandela effect crap but I'm seriously freaking out right now, I feel like I must be losing my mind because none of this is how I remember it.

It's called a collumn. If the firsst tank stops, the whole collomn stops.

He was never run over. What kind of footages are you thinking? Take it easy on the propaganda, burger.

Hahaha! What a story Mark!

He had a strong heart which I purchased for transplant soon afterwards. Still ticking

Which do you think is most likely -

1. There are multiple, unknown universes that occasionally glitch out, and you have been accidentally transported to another universe, unknowingly, where everything is exactly the same except for one world event

2. Your memory sucks

Jesus, how full does this shot get?

10 seconds more and it would have been.

This.

He was ironically more of a revolutionary than any of Mao and his goons ever were.

Tanks did run over protestors in the square itself, but this was far enough away from the action that a standoff was possible. The guy climbed on top of the tank and talked to the soldiers then climbed down and got pulled away by bystanders.

>tow I was referring to the song "A Real Hero" by Electric Youth
I'm fed AAP with this WOURL
Anyway how is your sexlife?

They did run over him in my timeline. It was the event that got me interested in politics.

>meant tfw not tow

>not posting full shot

What the fuck, is this a joke when does it end?

Did you watch the whole clip? In the end he goes over and gets on top of the tank and rides forward with the tanks. So no he didn't stand up for shit. He was an autistic fagg who never saw a tank before

He doesn't ride forward with the tanks. He hops back down and when the tank commander decides to starts moving again, he jumps back in front of it.
He is then escorted away by two people.
