What Can't Tintin Drive?
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again -- is there anything Tintin can’t drive? Not really. He’s driven it all. See for yourself.
First: Here's one of the many times Tintin drives a car. As usual he's after a crook. Car chase time everyone! Next: There's another time he drives. The car is an even older model since it is from Cigars of the Pharoah.
Here you see him driving a jeep through the desert taking Mr. Smith (also known as Dr. Muller) to the police and giving the Thompsons (who are having reactions from the Formula Fourteen they swallowed) a ride back.
Tintin takes a motorboat over to the Black Island to investigate it. The motorboat’s owner had made Tintin buy it instead of letting him rent it for fear that his motorboat would be lost and Tintin would never be seen again. It’s a good thing too, because as soon as Tintin left the boat alone it had disappeared.
Tintin flies a helicopter with Captain and Snowy aboard as they follow a car kidnappers are taking Professor Calculus in. Unfortunately when Captain tries to use the radio to call for help he gets annoying Jolyon Wagg who thinks he’s making the whole thing up and won’t call the French or Swiss police!
Here Tintin rides his scooter/motorcycle to Marlinspike Hall in the first frame of Tintin and the Picaros. And it’s not the only time he rides one -- he’s also chased after crooks in a car on a motorcycle.
Tintin flies airplanes many times, but this is the only thing I don't have a picture of right now. Once the bad guys were chasing him on another plane so he had to do a spiraling dive through the clouds to loose them. Yikes!
Tintin captains a ship that the crooks abandoned because it was on fire only a few minutes ago.
And now Tintin’s rowing a boat? Big difference from a ship!
Tintin now goes underwater in Professor Calculus’s shark submarine in search of Red Rackham’s treasure.
Now Tintin’s back on solid ground going straight forward in a tank with nothing stopping him -- no kidding, he went right through a building in that thing!
Here’s Tintin riding a bike in China.
Oh, and did I mention he can ride a horse too? Although that doesn’t exactly fit into this category...
...But while I'm on the subject, here's a picture of Tintin and Captain riding camels in the desert also.
