    We visited Canon's Half-World when I was a kid. It's not just cameras and copiers. Everything is cut in half. The people. The furniture. Everything. I still can't figure out how you can have half a person.

    And why not half a person? After taxes it's only half a paycheck.

    I don't know about anyone else, but I see a whole Canon Color Copier split into two halves.

    Not just for display purposes, sometimes this is the only way to get to a really bad paper jam.

    There's something tremendously sad and wonderfully glorious about a full-on real live cross section of a DSLR. It's like photog porn.

    @Kaiser-Machead: Did you ever see that program on TLC where they took the body of a murderer sentenced to lethal injection, frozen of course, and shaved off one milimeter-thick layer at a time, starting at his head and ending at his toes and took pictures all the way through? I wish I could remember more details than that right now...

    That is a lot more interesting than looking at the boring exterior. Why don't they just sell gadgets with clear casings?

    It says it has a diesel engine, but diesel is not explosive. So what's the point of having an armored gas tank?


    Maybe we're missing some information here, or that diagram is inaccurate.

    @Adam Best: I'm guessing the foam is the same as other cars like this I have seen. It expands when it comes in contact with oil, so it actually seals up the hole. It prevents it from leaking. I don't think the author here was the "best".

    Highly speculative. Oddly enough, the first thing that cued my BS meter was the mentioned of pump-action shotguns. I know for a fact that Secret Service carry submachine guns whenever they need to arm up from pistols.

    @Jeb_Hoge: If this is like most other armored vehicles, there are gun ports built into the inside that can't bee seen from the outside. A blast of 00 shot will do more damage than a MP5 at close range.
