malkiserow Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 I expect he owns one of those triple barrel shotguns with no selective trigger Was he turned down for the last job application as a crash test dummy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Dog Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 At least he wore safety glasses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srspower Posted April 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 The bad part people pay for training off this guy and he made the video to show how it is apparently 'perfectly fine' to stand in the line of fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huffhuff Posted April 2, 2014 Report Share Posted April 2, 2014 You can see where it's been edited, so either good video slicing or green screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malkiserow Posted April 2, 2014 Report Share Posted April 2, 2014 It is also NOT funny so strange April fool prank or sillyness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swingit Posted April 2, 2014 Report Share Posted April 2, 2014 What was the point of that video Apart from making himself look a t##t! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srspower Posted April 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2014 I don't think it is camera trickery, this is the first part. He basically thinks its perfectly fine to stand down range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huffhuff Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) Can you? Ive looked and I cant see any editing. He evem flinches his eyes at the shots. Very silly if its real. I'm confident it's trickery and fakery. Just before the shots, his image stutters for a very split second. I'm not sure if it's a perspective trick, green screen or clever editing. Compounded by the fact it was April 1st. Edited April 3, 2014 by huffhuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malkiserow Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 He deserves a Darwinian award If there is no trickery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mentalmac Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 I haven't watched the video with sound (Being in the office). If he's an army type guy, guess he's been de-sensitized to bullets being fired near him... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mickyh Posted April 10, 2014 Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 Princess Dianna, Margaret Thatcher to name a few have stood in the 'Killing House' during an SAS live fire exercise. And they stood firm when a few Male politicians dived under a table. Crossing Leeds ring road at 5pm is probably more dangerous than this. Live and let live, no one else is going to get hurt in his situation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Prawn Posted April 10, 2014 Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 I only watched it once but my professional eye didn't notice anything particularly suspicious, not to say it isn't but to add the dust layers and consistent wind etc is a real pain so you'd have to be pretty desperate to make it work. I'm also pretty sure there is muzzle smoke coming from just to camera left so the shooter is very close. To be clear it is a ridiculous thing to do and I am in no way condoning this but I could name several people who could safely hit the targets like that with only something catastrophic and unexpected as the risk, it isn't as dangerous as it might appear however it is irresponsible and reckless as well as potentially lethal. It's also completely against safe practice and once you've done one stupid film there's a temptation to push the envelope and eventually you do get to appear as the 'and finally' section on the news.
