Massive Self-Cleaning Initiative Kicks off in Upper Pysma
In an unexpected turn of events, the BelAZ-75710, the largest and heaviest haul truck ever built, has been transformed into a sports arena, hosting a sambo tournament in Verkhnyaya Pyshma, Russia.
The BelAZ-75710, a marvel of engineering, is a mining truck manufactured by the Belarusian company BelAZ. Equipped with two engines and boasting a massive payload capacity, the truck is a standout in the world of mining trucks [1][2][3][5].
However, when it comes to the historical details and journey of the BelAZ-75710 to the Museum Complex in Verkhnyaya Pyshma, there is limited information available. The search results mainly focus on the vehicle's specifications, usage, and size rather than its movement to or display in museum settings.
Similarly, there is no evidence or mention of the BelAZ-75710 being used as a sports arena in the past. The truck is primarily associated with industrial mining use, and no source connects it to sporting events or a conversion into an arena.
Despite this lack of information, the first event taking place on the BelAZ-75710 at the Museum Complex in Verkhnyaya Pyshma was indeed a sambo tournament. Athletes from the UGMK club and a martial arts school, including professional athletes Arthur Khaptsev (Merited Master of Sports) and Gleb Poznakhirkо (International Master of Sports), demonstrated throws during the tournament [4].
The tournament also included competitors from the "Sports School of Martial Arts" - boys and girls - in a "wall-to-wall" format [6]. This makes Verkhnyaya Pyshma the second unusual venue for sambo competitions, following the sambo tournament held on the deck of the military cruiser "Mikhail Kutuzov" in Novorossiysk in 2021 [7].
Furthermore, various performances are scheduled to take place on the BelAZ-75710 throughout the summer at the Museum Complex in Verkhnyaya Pyshma [8]. The BelAZ-75710, which holds a Guinness World Record for carrying a 503.5-ton load across a test polygon in January 2014 [9], is currently the centre of attention, showcasing a unique blend of industrial might and sporting spirit.
However, for those seeking detailed historical or cultural information about the BelAZ-75710's presence in Verkhnyaya Pyshma or its use in sports, additional specialized sources beyond the provided data would be necessary.
