$450 Million Worth Arnold Schwarzenegger Once Admitted He Rewarded Kids Who “Stay in School” With a Special $20,000 Ride

Aging like a fine wine, Arnold Schwarzenegger, even at 75, continues to dominate social media with style. Having won 7 Mr. Olympia and 5 Mr. Universe titles, Arnie is a “Cultural Icon.” From bodybuilding to acting to politics, time and again, the audience has seen him perfecting multiple roles. Starting his career young, the Terminator star loves to live a large-than-life lifestyle.

Arnold started his journey from a small village in Austria. Coming from a humble background, the star worked day in and day out to brave the hardships. It’s not just his exceptional physique that grabs the eyeballs, but also his unique car collection. However, it’s not just his car but another beast that also enjoys a separate fan base.

Arnold’s love for tanks

A military personal himself, Arnie’s love affair with tanks dates back. Not only his reel-life roles that demand him to shoot with the tanks, but also his larger-than-life wishes. Dominating the big screen like no other, the Action Hero surprised everyone and took the tabloid by storm when he purchased the M47 Patton tank in 1992.

Just to fulfill his wish to own the beast, Arnold exclusively flew in the tank to the United States. The 50-ton Austrian war vehicle was flown after spending a whopping fee of $20,000. The ex-governor’s garage may hold several other exclusive and luxury cars, but none is as special as the military vehicle. The proud owner still owns the beast to date.

The vehicle may not find any wartime use, but it does play a crucial part in Arnold’s work on social welfare activities. Putting the tank to the best use, the ace bodybuilder uses the tank to incentivize school kids to stay in school. He once promised to give them a ride back in his tank, provided they complete their stay at school. Talking with Jay Leno, he said, “I bring kids out here from the after-school programs. When they stay in school, their reward is to come out here and drive tanks with me.”

Other ways through which Arnold Schwarzenegger uses his tank

Apart from occasionally using his tank to give school kids a ride. The Governator with the “Epic Meal Time” team used his tank’s bonnet to cook his favorite “Monster Steak & Egger Sandwich.” Wearing the chef’s hat, Arnie guides the show host in cooking 18,538 calorie monster sandwich.

With the impossible amount of meat, eggs, and cheese, the sandwich’s size may terrify you, but not Arnold. Calling his cooked sandwich “yummy,” the Hollywood start did not just show how to make the best sandwich but also showed everyone how to use a tank in style.
