KILLDOZER

Go Marvin, a man of action, just don’t piss him off!

52 year old welder Marvin Heemeyer lived in Grunbee Colorado fixing

vehicle mufflers. His small repair shop was located near a concrete

factory called Mountain Park. To Marvin and his neighbors' horrors, the

owners of Mountain Park decided to expand the factory, forcing the

people living near-by to sell their land to Mountain Park.

Sooner or later the factory's neighbors gave up, except for Marvin.

Having tried every way possible, the owners of the factory failed to

acquire his land. However all the surrounding land was now owned by

the factory, which resulted in Marvin's shop getting cut off from the

rest of the world.

Marvin tried everything in his powers to restore justice. Obviously, the

city council and other politicians of the state were on the factory

owners' evil capitalist side.

It's not surprising that Marvin lost the case to the owners, in court.

After that Marvin was also given a $2500 fine for not having a

connected sewer line. When paying the fine, Marvin attached a note to

the check and ticket that read "Cowards".

He was just one of those who would not give up.

On the 4th of June, 2004 during a rainy day Marvin rolled out into

town on a bulldozer reinforced with metal sheets.

He started with the

concrete factory,

destroying building

after building, until

the factory was

demolished. Then it

was the city council's

turn followed by the

town hall, then the

bank, the public

library, the fire

station, a warehouse,

the local paper and other buildings belonging to the mayor.

Having tried to stop Heemeyer, the police finally understood that

Marvin's bulldozer was unstoppable. More than 200 bullets were fired

at the vehicle, causing no harm at all. The police force then decided to

battle the titan with hand grenades. Once again their efforts were

useless. Later a vehicle rigged with explosives was put in Marvin's path

to destruction; it also had little luck in stopping him.

Marvin returned fire using two semi-automatic .23 caliber rifles and a

single .50 caliber semi-automatic rifle through specially designed holes

in the vehicle's

front, left and

right sides.

All the police

were able to do,

was evacuate

1500 inhabitants

(the town's

population was

2200) and block

all the roads,

including a

federal highway

that lead to the

town.

Marvin's war ended at 4:23 PM.

Having just finished

destroying the

Gambles Mall, the

bulldozer suddenly

stopped. The only

thing that could be

heard coming form

Marvin’s death

machine was smoke

out of a damaged

radiator.

At first the police officers were too afraid to approach the thing. Trying

to get Marvin out of his fortress, they had to make a hole in the armor.

When they finally got through, Marvin was already dead. He wasn't

going to get into the enemy's hands alive.

Despite the great damage to property (13 buildings were destroyed,

most requiring hundreds of thousands of dollars to be replaced), no

one besides Heemeyer was injured; observers noted that Heemeyer

appeared to go out of his way to avoid injury to bystanders.

The governor said that the city looked as if a tornado had just gone

through.

Later an investigation was carried out. It was discovered that Marvin's

creation was so strong that even a powerful artillery blow would only

cause minor damage. The bulldozer was totally covered in sheet metal,

with each piece being at least half an inch thick. In places, the

vehicle's armor was over one foot thick, consisting of concrete

sandwiched between sheets of steel to make ad-hoc composite armor.

To fit the

bulldozer with

this shell,

Marvin had to

use a self-made

crane.

"Lowering the

protective

armor onto the

vehicle, Marvin knew he wouldn't be able to get out"- said police

officials.

Marvin packed the interior with supplies such as water, food, ammo

and a gasmask. To control the killdozer, Marvin used 3 monitors and a

couple of video cameras. In an event of the cameras being blinded by

dust, they were fitted with air compressors.

It took Marvin 2 months to design the Killdozer, and according to

sources, 1.5 years to build it.

"He was a fine lad", - said the people that were close to Marvin. "They

shouldn't have made him angry". "If he was your friend, he was your

best friend. And if he was your enemy, well he was your worst and

most dangerous enemy." - said Marvin’s friends.
