From the first time someone stood on the wing of a plane 14 years ago to now, the Battlefield series has been the source of some of the dumbest (and best) gaming videos on the web. Bugs, glitches, hijinks, antics, buffoonery, shenanigans—it's got it all. Battlefield 1 only just released, but from the alpha to the beta to now it's already contributed great things to the tradition. Here are our favorite Battlefield 1 videos and gifs so far (and if we missed a stupid human trick you like, let us know in the comments).

Just plain rude
By: deadkandy
Even though Battlefield 1 has the series' best aircraft in a while, there are a lot more piggyback rides going on than there used to be.
Do a barrel roll!

Someone pressed Z or R twice.
Flying tank

Our contemporaries over at IGN met a strong-willed light tank that takes its name seriously.
Yakety sax
