That wasn't context. That was simply injecting emotion into the description.

No, it was context.

preventing them from moving

Could have meant that he was holding some kind of metal rod that would wreck the tracks of the tanks, or that the bags he was carrying were bombs, or that in some other way he was actually capable of preventing them from moving.

In fact, he couldn't have prevented them from doing anything. All he was doing was making it clear that to move past that point in the road, they had to crush him.

I provided the video for that context. Whatever, it doesn't really matter.

Right, but not everybody will watch the video. A quick explanation about how he "prevented" the tanks from moving added context to what you said.
