That Time the Islamic State Started Their Own Space Program

Footage that's so old it still has a LiveLeak watermark in the top left hand corner captures the moment an Islamic State suicide bomber attempts a moon landing with his vehicle by launching himself 200 feet in the air with a Peshmerga landmine.
Man, we gotta pour one out for the homies at LiveLeak. I really hope those guys are doing good with the new project. They were GOATs back when Funker was still putting heavy metal intros into the videos on YouTube.
For the purpose of context, this video was filmed some time in 2015 by members of the Peshmerga conducting anti-terror operations outside of Kirkuk, Iraq.
This video is disqualified from the current year's run on hang-time since it was recorded eight years ago.
