Wow, just wow.. I just came in from a ton of heavy yard work and am a very tired and a bit dazed, but seeing this just about made me pass out.

I hope that's fake, (but it's probably not) because I still can't beieve I just saw that... :shock:

I knew a guy who did that with a paintball gun (and I know he knew better, but...) and lost an eye, and that was bad enough, but yeah, that rifle guy is lucky to be alive...

I may have to download a copy of this to show to our next firearm safety class when discussing the importance of treating every gun as if it is loaded.

Thanks for posting. Already grabbed a copy for our next class. We talk about hangfires. This should drive the point home.

If there were more guys like him, there would be fewer guys like him. :roll:

What an idiot.

Oh come on, everybody knows the FIRST thing you do when the gun just goes "click" is look down the barrel! :o :o :o

Sad and nasty but I'm calling FAKE! First dead give away is he cocks the shotgun twice after the fail to fire, Than after the shot goes off the sound from the rifle just STOPS rather than carry on. and his hat just Happens to go in a odd direction in the air. Plus he'd be almost blind from powder burns. Still a good video for the idea, Did the Brady Bunch make this video??

I'm inclined to agree with this.

Hangfire or not, why would the shell not have ejected when he cycled the action? At the angle he was looking into the barrel when the "shot" went off, it would have opened his skull like a melon....

And last, why are there no powder burns on the hat?

Looks and feels fake. Nobody can be that stupid to look down the barrel of a gun that just hangfired.

Yes, they can, somewhere there was security footage of a non miss at a shooting range when the guy did exactly that.
