        This one shows him being dragged away at the end.

        Edit: This still cuts off the end of the video, but it does show more

          That one cuts off right before the interesting part. When he keeps climbing up and down the tank, having a conversation with the crew, and then gets rushed off by bystanders without incident.

          In other videos you can also see him being dragged off by bystanders in the end.

      I know I’ve been told that he was eventually run over. Probably by some grade school teacher.

        No, he climbs down, keep hindering the tanks, then gets dragged away by two others. There’s a full video somewhere

          Youtube keeps removing the full video, every link I used to have of it is gone.

            I’m so glad that internet archive exists, it’s the best illustration of how the west constantly manipulates media.

        People thinking they saw the guy get run over is another stupid “Mandela Effect” thing.

      There’s also a bigger picture with Tank Man, that shows the mostly empty square the tanks were leaving, with a handful of soldiers and bikes.

      And a bunch of other photos showing the battle that took place in the surrounding streets, with cops that had been lynched and burned and protesters gunned down.

      That doesnt make it any more or less of an impactful picture.
