The reason most tankers carried pistols, by some accounts, more than self protection.
ok you got me on that 1, but what about u ejecting from a plane the planes canopy is closed, its like u magicly fell through the plane. also wouldnt take time for your guy to unbuckle himself, open the canopy and jump out. so wouldnt the same way the jumping out of a plane be the same for a vehicle:p
