Challenger 2 Leopard 2 Abrams Captured T-80BVM Challenger 2 Abrams Leopard 2 Challenger 2 Abrams Leopard 2

What it means

Three brightly dressed street dancers labeled Challenger 2, Leopard 2, and Abrams dance through the streets of Los Angeles, performing synchronized and exaggerated moves as the daylight fades into night. A brief label, “Captured T-80BVM,” adds the military joke: the dancers are portrayed as battle tanks, with the captured Russian tank appearing as an unexpected counterpart. Set to La Bouche’s upbeat Eurodance song “Be My Lover,” the cheerful music and confident choreography make the absurd tank comparison feel like a triumphant military dance parade.
