Arnold Schwarzenegger | Army Tank

The famous Hollywood film icon Arnold, Schwarzenegger, owns a 1951 M-47 Patton tank which is similar to the huge armed vehicle he drove when he served the Austrian National Army in 1965. The 50-ton behemoth is equipped with a V-12 Chrysler twin-turbo gas engine, has 810 horsepowers, and a maximum speed of 30 miles per hour. He got the combat wheels for free but spent $20,000 to ship the huge machine to the US.

The former politician purchased the tank when it finally retired from Army service. The huge machine was in Motts Military Museum Ohio for several years when Arnold asked for it to be sold in 2008. He sometimes uses the war vehicle to give free rides to children, rewarding them for staying in school. We must give credit to this retired bodybuilder for valuing education so much.
