Take Out Your 2020 Rage On Cars With Shotguns And A Tank

If you fancy the chance to take out some of that pent up rage that has built up during this rotten year, how about signing up for the chance to do exactly that, but with a tank and a load of shotguns.

Sounds fun, right? The perfect tonic to 2020.

You could find yourself able to spend a bit of time expending some destructive energy with actual weapons destroying a load of helpless scrap cars.

This unique opportunity is being offered by Scrap Car Comparison and will allow the chosen few the opportunity to vent their frustrations in the best possible way - with high-powered firearms and a 56-tonne battle tank.

It'll take place in the Northamptonshire fields, where you'll spot a scrap car with the number 2020 emblazoned on it.

First, you'll get to take about it with a shotgun, firing off blast to your heart's content and - hopefully - relieving some of that extra stress.

Then, you'll take the controls of a Chieftain battle tank to crush a whole load of cars sitting at your mercy in the mud.

There's very limited availability, but it'll only set you back £20.20 ($26.96) if you're chosen among the lucky few to get a go.

If it proves popular - and why wouldn't it? - they'll offer more dates.

To be in with a chance, all you have to do is head over to the Scrap Car Comparison website to enter a ballot.

There is a bit of science behind all of this madness, too.

Chartered Psychologist Dr Samia Latif explained: "Certain individuals find that relieving tension in an overt physical manner is much more therapeutic and a form of stress relief that works better for them.

"This is known as 'Destruction Therapy' and it does allow people to relieve stress within a controlled environment.

"This year, some people have been overwhelmed with stress and tension and the type of destruction therapy offered by the Rage Yard experience may be an ideal way to release stress for those who have not benefited from other therapeutic strategies that have been recommended for them, and who are more inclined to need physical exertion at greater levels than the knitting needle or paintbrush!"

That sounds like it could apply to any of us.

Dan Gick, managing director at Scrap Car Comparison, added: "The year 2020 has been one of the absolute worst in living memory, and we wanted to be able to offer customers a way to release all the stress that this year has bought into their lives.

"We thought as the year draws to a close, what better way to unleash all your 2020 angst than by taking it out on scrap cars!

"Our Rage Yard experience provides you with the chance to (safely) shoot scrap cars, before trampling over them in a huge armoured tank.

"The cars are heading to the scrap heap anyway, so after the year we've all had, it made sense to offer this exhilarating experience that should help people let go of their built-up frustrations from 2020 and in turn, feel a bit more calm and serene as we enter the new year."
