Take 57 seconds and watch tennis ace Novak Djokovic battle a WWII M1 Abrams tank. The video is a mashup created by the imaginative Michael Shanks. Beware: you’ll see what the delighted announcers call “terrible sportsmanship.”
You’ll also learn a few things, like that “tanks aren’t traditionally designed to play tennis.” Shanks is from Melbourne, and you can’t help but think he got the idea–staring across the court at a powerful tank–by trying to imagine what Serena Williams’ opponents must feel like. Serena just rolled to her sixth Australian Open title in Melbourne.
