BB Video: 'Tank tour' - the mother of all tank collections

 If you are one of those people that has ever worried that your hobby is taking over your life, let this be a warning to you!

Shot for Boing Boing (my favorite ecclectic news blog) this video shows just a small part of the massive collection of historical military vehicles and tanks collected by Jacques Littlefield, the recently-departed eccentric Silicon Valley multimillionaire. Apparently Mr. Littlefield started his collection as a youth with scale models, but eventually ended up with one of the biggest and important private collections of authentic military vehicles in the world!

(I daren't show the wife this - as my airsoft collection is in danger of taking over the house!)
