Tank Man is an unnamed Chinese man who stood in front of a column of tanks leaving Tiananmen Square in Beijing.
History[edit | edit source]
When Brian suggested Peter tell the truth to Lois about losing his job, Peter asked if he should also tell Lois that he did not actually stand up to "that tank" in Tiananmen Square. A cutaway gag revealed Peter standing next to Tank Man. Peter hurriedly left as the tanks encroached, stating that we was only there for the fireworks.[1]
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Tank Man is a real person. Famous images of the man were taken on June 5, 1989, the day after the Chinese military had suppressed the Tiananmen Square protests by force. Internationally, it is considered one of the most iconic images of all time.
