I think that's part of the plane-- maybe a part of the outboard wing pylon
on which the van roof is hanging-- or something from the Transporter. I
think it unlikely that there were any children around. It appears to be the
flight line of a German air force base, as the plane is an F1 Tornado and
the wing tank is painted in a paint scheme seen on German aircraft
(http://tinyurl.com/65wus) and also the olive-drab Transporter is pretty
good clue. I suspect the only thing hurt was the career of the Luftwaffe
airman who was driving down the flight line fast enough to tear the roof off.
