    It depends on how watertight the tank is and depth of water I suppose, but given the cramped area for drivers, even with a helmet there’s probably a concussion and possibly broken bones. You are going to hit the top and front

      Bring some padding and brace for impact, I guess? Clearly someone did it (unless this is doctored).

      It’s my impression that modern tanks are built to operate under an appreciable depth of water, which makes sense since airtightness is also watertightness. I have no idea when and where this was taken, and what the case was then. It would suck if the bruised and shaken driver had to swim out.
