Found this on Youtube. Supposed to be an actual German training film from 1943 showing the different weapons infantry can use against tanks. I think the first requirement is having cojones the size of bowling balls. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDbFdngVOJk

Quite the well put together training film. The German used lots of Russian equipment and I like than inspite of its obvious effort to instill confidence in their wide assortment of antitank techniques they showed failures and successes. I have seen other period produced German anti tank films so obviously they produced several of them. A tank in isolation is really quite vulnerable to close in attack and its obvious any orchestrated support from numerous tanks working together is critical and why supporting Infantry is vital. All easy to understand but really hard to do. Keeping up with tanks even when they are moving slow is very hard to do. Not loosing your Infantry in fairly short order is nearly impossible.
Close in your tracks, the mass of your vehicle and sheer intimidation is a tanks best weapon against Infantry.
