We’ve all been there. Sure, the vehicle looks easy enough to drive and then something happens, and OOPS! It’s in a ditch.

We've all been there. Sure, the vehicle looks easy enough to drive and then something happens, and OOPS! It's in a ditch. If you know what we're talking about, then you're going to love these funniest military vehicle fails.

Don't have time to watch the whole video? Here are the highlights!

Oops! Someone forgot that tanks need to be driven with their tracks on the road, not in the air. First up is a tank flip while being driven onto a semi-trailer.

We want to know who was at the controls for this next one. This tank gets a trophy for crashing in the slowest possible way. At a low speed, it veers off the right until it is off the road and starts smoking.

Haha, who thought this was a good idea? And when has a tank ever been able to fit into a civilian parking spot? Watch as this next tank tries to squeeze into a spot between too cars.

We’re willing to bet that anyone who’s ever maneuvered a tank has had this idea of crashing it into a pole. Check out how it rips right out of the ground and crashes!

This is why you always check the water levels before trying to drive over one. This tank driver obviously didn’t get that memo though because they drive it right into a deep puddle.

Crane versus tank – who’s going to win? A crane is pulling a tank upright, but someone forgot to use the parking brake, so when the tank gets onto its wheels, it starts rolling forward down a hill, dragging the crane with it.

This next clip is a great example of why mil drivers are great. Because even when things go off the rails, we always know how to get them back into control.

Never try to ride a camel that isn’t yours. ‘Nuff said.

Service members always go chasing after the wrong thing, don’t they? At least these guys are trying to catch a tire!

Pole 1. Tank 0. A tank driving down a city street rams into the curb then continues forward only to crash into a pole.

Who says you need to stop? This tank driver has decided that ramming another vehicle isn’t cause for anything except a celebration! Wonder what it’s like inside that tank during this crash.
