What's that got to do with anything?

From Wikipedia

 

"After the 1938 invasion of Czechoslovakia by Nazi Germany, Tatras continued in production, largely because Germans liked the cars. Many German officers met their deaths driving heavy, rear-engined Tatras faster around corners than they could handle. At the time, as an anecdote, Tatra became known as the 'Czech Secret Weapon' for the scores of officers who died behind the wheel; at one point official orders were issued forbidding German officers from driving Tatras.[1][9]"

That Walmart song is fantastic. It's so true as well. People watching in a British supermarket is interesting enough but that's even better.

Anyone who has ever worked in one will know exactly what I mean!

Nothing!

 

A place to post random curiosities; love the track and it sits great with this old promo.

 

The joke is Tatra's were notorious for their awful road holding, having a 3.5 litre V8 hanging out the back of what is effectively a larger version of the VW beetle chassis. Hitler even banned his senior officers from driving them because of so many fatal accidents, Czechoslovakia's secret weapon against the Nazis.

Some sort of weird Bollywood take on the Beatles.

On a similar vein, some sort of childrens programme sketch.
