Original Note:
The fate of the "tank protester" (AKA "tank man") is unknown. The original poster's claim on his fate is thus speculation. Missing context: Conservative estimates suggest at least hundreds of protesters were killed in the Tiananmen Square demonstrations in 1989. https://www.britannica.com/biography/Tank-Man https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_Man https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1989_Tiananmen_Square_protests_and_massacre https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7REeVXC_iM https://www.nationalgeographic.com/history/article/how-protest-tiananmen-square-turned-into-massacre
