Fifty people live year-round in Silverton, where miners once dug for silver. In the 1890s, the village had a population of three thousand. A motley collection of tin and scrap metal buildings, it was gradually abandoned when a new deposit of silver, lead and zinc was discovered near Broken Hill. In 2010, the Mad Max Museum was inaugurated, where many documents and objects from the filming of the second part of the saga are collected. It is possible to admire two reproductions of the famous Interceptors cars and many costumes.
In terms of badass cops, Max Rockatansky gets the prize. A skilled pilot and an outstanding policeman, Mad Max tears up the asphalt and everyone on it aboard his Interceptor.
