@Preaplanes Don't forget the other variant of RPG-7 stupidity - removing the safety cap and going on a march with the bloody thing being a trip away from detonating inside the launcher itself and unfortunately that sort of stupidity (and basic lack of understanding of firearms) happens outside of the Middle East :D ie - during my conscripted service in a former Pact country that's now in NATO, we had 2 officers in my unit kill themselves via backblast, because they decided to shoot the -7 from inside a bunker, 'cause they didn't want to get rained on during a FieldEx. Or that fun time when another asshole almost fragged 2 infantry companies ( 1 was a visiting Texan ANG unit that I can only assume lost a bet / screwed the pooch to be sent to the ass end of nowhere to us), because he didn't know the difference between an offensive blast/concussion (safety range is ~10 meters) and defensive/frag (think of it as an omnidirectional claymore ...with similar effective and max ranges and which is really supposed to be used when you're in a bunker or a proper fighting position).. and no, they don't look remotely alike XD
if i was either of those dudes that almost got knee capped i woulda walked up to him after he was done firing, pulled the gun from his hand (obviously being calm about it not to sus him out.) then deck him in the face.
@@DinnerForkTongue I cannot possibly describe the surge of disgust, discomfort, sadness, and fear when I saw that you referred to it as a “wrinkly ring”
So something I actually have to add. The first one was actually done by a friend of mine. the thing they exploded was an old tv. If you look very closely you can see a metal wire fly at them. My friend actually has a scar from that wire grazing his arm.
5:03 although it could be funny it could be done more safely. When I was first handed a handgun to try out I was like 10, the range instructor chambered one round and removed the magazine, that way even if I lose control of the gun after the shot, the gun would be completely empty, no chance of subsequent unintentional discharge like in that video.
That shot of the round and the plates from the Whistlindeasil article is actually from Demo Ranch where Matt recreated the incident to show how lucky he actually was.
Wait. That event happened... then someone *re-created* it, because he though we should see the worst-case scenario? Is he bored with life? Then why not remove the guesswork, and lap-dance on a homemade landmine?
A few people did get killed in that PK machine gun video. You can see someone drop as the rounds started flying at people. And there's also a longer video that shows one of the people who got struck right between the eyes. Gruesome stuff
With me, the way I would hand a revolver to someone is like this: Step 1. Keeping the barrel in a safe direction, I would kick the cylinder out, and dump the rounds out in my hand Step 2. Click the cylinder back in, keeping the barrel in a safe direction Step 3. Engage the safety Step 4. Hold the revolver so the bottom of the entire gun is toward the other person, keeping the barrel pointed down, holding my middle finger under the trigger guard, and keeping my index finger well away from the trigger. Step 5. Hand the revolver to the other person, and have them take it by the grip, keeping their index finger away from the trigger. Remember the safety is still on. Step 6. Let go, and they now have the revolver, all the while keeping it pointed down That is how you hand someone a gun. It isn’t hard
Yeah I wonder if Brandon has ever actually watched any of WD videos. Its something WD would do. His videos are just out there and stupid. . The way hes already handled that 50 shows hes careless with it hate it for him but it really makes the rest of gun owners around him look stupid.
I think the major lesson from all of these is - Be careful of who you shoot with. Even if you're being safe, the idiot beside you can ruin your day in a hurry.
410 or .22, always have them handy when someone new wants to come shooting. Then actually come back next time and have another person to pitch on actually expensive rounds xD
Brandon ive watched this again for the god knows how many times and the pkm guy that waters the grass slow it down right before the camera pans on the left of the screen i seen at least one person drop like a rag doll like there was a unwanted drain hole added to their body
that ak fail reminds me of the story about uday hussain who used to like to shoot the wall above dancing wedding guests for shits and giggles, sometimes even getting furious if they ran
Cody was legit the ONLY person in this vid to receive his very Own Darwin Award!!! Everyone else handed them out to others..... So, Not Darwin Awards at all whatsoever.... But..... BUT, The last guy was walking chill AF in that very real and very Live firefight!!! Dude was just walking to the library to check out some American Military Manuals when he gets completely Blind Sided by an RPG BackBlast!!! And I've seen what they can do, sorry Ballistic High Speed!!! Glad you're good and Healed Up Great!!!
Well, this video has been age-f*cked... Apparently naked yoga is fine but a meme compilation requires me to send my ID or credit card data to BigG (as they didn't have these already).
Good Point, Brandon! Anyone with a Social Media Channel about Guns/Firing Guns, understand your actions and mistakes are so much bigger than just yourself!
........ive earned a darwin award.......at 13yrs old i thought id be interesting to see how hot the casing of a .357 would have to get before it melted, i at least had the sense to remove the bullet and powder, i was unaware that the priemer was more of a blasting cap, and not a "spark" like flint on steel like i had thought, so when the casing started glowing red it discharged, sending a portion of the priemer right into my foot, i have been a firm believer in proper firearm safety ever since, though i think training courses should also teach that even without the bullet a live case can still be dangerous
4:00 i've heard of people only loading every other position in the cylinder specifically to avoid this situation(only applying to large caliber revolvers)
i know this is a few years old, but i should point out, in the middle eastern wedding, that AK manages to fire twice on the right side of the gun, jump to the left side of him, fire, and jump to the right side AGAIN, and fire, before he releases that trigger. BY A FUCKING MIRACLE! missing that guy 4 seperate times on either side of him!
When it comes to rocket launched magic missiles, there is a wonderful two-part magical spell that all novice mages should know! CLEAR BACKBLAST *5 second pause* BACKBLAST CLEAR! Now you are ready to cast your rocket powered magic missile!
There are a few videos out in the great internets of 'rebel fighters' running with RPG-7s...with the safety cap removed. Anybody uninformed: the rocket has a big percussion pin on the front: when it hits a target the pin gets depressed, which causes the rocket to go boom. There is ofc a safety cap for transport/handling the rocket. You can fire the rocket with it on, and so many would argue to NEVER remove them. The people in the videos of which I speak did remove them, proceed to run/do something, trip and the rocket goes boom right there. True Darwin Awards.
Scott(Kentucky Ballistics) told me too that you do not want to shoot steel from close but it would be good if you shouldnt shoot steel at all it can ricochet
I think I've seen that clip before. Someone said the dude lost his hand and it can be seen on the video. Not sure which of the 5 pixels it's supposed to be.
@@LividMoodflow i dont know if you could see but.. you can literally see the red mush flying out of his head. Oh and speaking about his head, his brain probably looks like mashed potatoes
Also, what goes for the rear end of an RPG-7 goes for the rear end of an AT-4 and double for the Carl Gustaf m/48;m2;m3;m4 recoilless rifles (the latter especially as it does not fire a rocket but a self contained cartridge that makes it more of a late 19th century breech fed shoulder fired 3.5" field gun, with the equivalent recoil...)
Hint: when training a noob for the first time, just put one round in the gun. These guys apparently are graduates of Alec Baldwin's Academy of Firearms Safety. Thanks for the vids.
unlike most of the other bump fire vids she had a pretty large revolver but managed to keep it into her hands instead of it becoming the magnum space agency.
I shot that exact model S&W 500 about 3 times when someone offered it to me at a shooting area. It was a little intimidating ,but I wanted to try plus I knew I could hold onto it. The weight of the thing actually helps with recoil.
“rules of stupid” - “Don’t do stupid things with stupid people at stupid times.” When homie is doin' something stupid, GTFO before you end up in a hospital or the morgue. Sooner or later, he might take himself out, but you don't need to let him take you out.

Except shooting through in-line blocks of Velveeta. Seriously, he shouldn't insult our intelligence by 'wondering if X can stop a bullet'. Nobody really has illusions that stuff like cheese can, or would really care to find out. And RU-vidrs aren't ashamed to admit it when they just want to see bizarre things be the target of gunfire.
@@henrysokol3466 stupid videos like that actually can make us understand that lot of stuff can stop a bullet given enough of them around. And also that lot of covers are concealment rather than actual bullet stoppers.
@@doldemenshubarti8696 Oh come on__ does this guy project the slightest air of _science and education_ being his motivation behind this? He's having a ball blasting and shooting stuff he (and we) have never seen react to it before. And just seeing a few war films (or photos and footage of wars) will teach the lesson you mentioned... _bagged loose powder_ is shown to do the job well enough for soldiers. I lot of folks probably go to see _whatever results happen,_ because they'll never probably see such weird things any other way. (I must admit it-- they *are* unique and amusing to see.) Where will gunfire happen where anyone would have and choose a solid 12-foot-thick barrier of *cheese* for safety? A Land'O'Lakes plant some Mob boss had a grudge against for some reason? (And if so... what are the odds they'd leave behind the security footage, which somehow managed to give a good view of how far bullets penetrated into provolone?)
@@Enes-wj5xq You're right, I really don't give a damn about folks who have no situational awareness. I did not know about the misspelling. Nor do I particularly care, because this comment is meant to be humorous and not taken seriously.
When I was in the Navy the shop LPO put up a sign on the freaking shop door. Said the same thing, almost. I'm not the smartest, but I do know the difference between "you're" and "your". He used the latter. I asked who put up the sign. He answered. I asked see anything wrong with it? No. I withstood it making us look like dumbasses for a week until one morning when I was about to get off work, took my pen and corrected it. When I got back to work that night, sign was gone and never spoken of again.
I think it’s harder for everyone around you except yourself, because stupid people don’t realize they are stupid, they live life happily endangering other people and themselves.
@@jakenshake1775 he's dead. I saw someone at cax get sent flying by backblast after a carnival of fuckups he nearly died and he was almost 20ft back. Point blank and you organs are exploding
@@jakenshake1775 Its an explosion being sent down a tube, explosions usually kill before the shrapnel, (if you're gonna be killed by the explosion at all) that's like denoting a concussion grenade less then 3 inches from your head.
