Rambo enthusiasts descended upon Hope, B.C. for a celebration of the 40th anniversary of the film First Blood, on Saturday.
The well-known movie was mostly filmed in the community of Hope and organizers said they expected fans from across the world to attend.
The event saw a crowd gather on a closed-off street in Hope, where a tank made an appearance and drove over a car, flattening it in the process.
“It’s a special occasion in our community and we thought we’d come down to show our support,” said Nick Tyler, a Hope resident. “It’s a blast. Not every day you get to see a tank crush a car on our main street.”
Many crowd members dressed in full Rambo cosplay, showing their spirit for the event, for a Rambo costume contest.
