			at least he had a safety vest on so no one else would shoot him.

			Why in the world would you EVER look down that end of a barrel. Forget that you just had a misfire, why?

 I suspect he had to change his pants after that. Can you imagine if he hadn't been quite as lucky. It would not have been a pretty picture.

			Amazing! That's why you wait at least 30 seconds for a hang-fire... to see if it really is a hang-fire, or a dud.

			He is obviously alone and taping himself. Nearly shooting yourself in the face is stupid enough, but then you go and post a video if it on the net? He may actually be too stupid to kill himself. | ||

			Damn, now that's a ricochet! How could that happen? Was that a steel plate he was shooting at?

			My dad did that exact thing in the fall of 1981.  He wasn't wearing a hat, the 20 gauge shotgun that he'd bought for my 9 year old brother simply went off when he gently set the butt gently down on the ground. -The gun was some off-brand single-shot from Brazil that he had purchased at K-mart in Michigan. The safety was too loose, as was the trigger. Hello? Trust me, the gun was destroyed soon after! I shudder to think what would have happened had the barrel been pointed a few inches another way. I would have lost my father at 15..... Instead, he is still happily inflicting damage to golf courses today, at age 69. I'm proud of him and I love him! [!] -There are two morals of this story: 1. Gun safety is everything! If you aren't careful, you aren't just killing "you", you are killing "you" to several dozen people. While you owe nothing to yourself, you owe a HELL of a lot to them! Guns are small powerful devices, not unlike our Porsches. Only, instead of filling a garage, they only fill your hand. DON'T be fooled by the small size- these will kill you dead quick! Take guns seriously. My dad did, but he let his attention lapse ONE time; he was lucky! 2. BUY QUALITY EQUIPMENT!!!!! I suspect that I'm preaching to the quire by saying this to Porsche owners. But it is real damn easy to buy a cheap gun. Makarov, or several other handguns, along with the cheap Brazilian shotgun that almost killed my dad! The reassuring notion that the gun came from the big retailer K-mart can lul you into a sense of security; Nothing could be further from the truth! Buy name brand guns that you've researched online, and buy them from reputable dealers. N! | ||

 I thought why is he taping himself shooting at plastic bottles less than ten feet away????? But if it's fake, it's a pretty good fake....the slo-mo sure makes it look real. 99% of what we see in action type movies these days is fake, so it could be.
