The Sentinel features a 360-degree, 6-piece armored passenger safety cell made of high-strength steel and multi-laminated bulletproof glass, which, according to the manufacturer, allows the Sentinel to withstand 7.62mm high velocity, armor-piercing incendiary bullets, lateral blasts from up to 15kg of TNT, and two DM51 hand grenades from the roof and underfloor. The Sentinel also has an anti-tamper exhaust, self-sealing fuel tank, and discreet heavy duty run flat tires. As expected of a Land Rover, it’s also designed to comfortably handle off-road terrain.

In Case of Emergency – Eat This Book

Tuesday, June 12th, 2012

Developed by advertising geniuses Y&R Dubai for Land Rover, this survival guide is awesome. They really went the extra mile with this one. Far more than a marketing stunt, this is real. They researched every indigenous animal and plant, people could encounter in the Arabian Desert and how they could be used to survive. They also studied the topography of the region to guide people to safety, used used reflective packaging which could be used to signal for help, and bound the book with a metal spiral, which could be used for cooking. But that wasn’t enough. They made the book from edible ink and paper so that if all else fails it could be eaten. It has the nutritional value close to that of a cheeseburger.
