LOL Videos of awesome

Yup. Force of impact would cause extreme strain on the neck, not to mention the force on the back of the skull. Might be a sped up shot of him getting dragged backwards, possibly just sheer VFX for the bit where he's smashed into the wall.

 

That and if you look closely he starts moving *before* the explosion

 

It's pretty convincing though.

 

Has the word "epic" really been devalued so much that it now describes a rubber snake on a string?

 

Definately a fake.

Any less funny? Nope still makes me laugh

 

indeed, but the videos are pretty funny to me.

 

I know almost nothing about ballistics, so I have a question for those of you who enjoy bullets and shooting things. In some of the scenes (for example, see the shots beginning at about 7:33) it looks like the bullets are striped, and upon impact they appear to peel apart like a banana. Is the bullet designed to do this, or is it a consequence of the rifling inside the gun barrel? If it's designed to peel apart as seen in the video, what is the reason?

Also, the video with the girl taking a self-portrait every day for 4.5 years was pretty awesome! I may have to try that.

 

The ones that peel apart might be Hollow points. Those are designed to open up on impact like that to leave bigger holes in people. Inversely; It spreads the impact, so it's less likely that it'll punch through armour. Hence why they don't go through the steel plate I think they're using in that video.

 

for something made (or sponsored by) an airsoft company, i expected more shooting. Still quite cool though

The Bullet in question at 7.33 is a 338 lapua magnum lock base Round. The stripes in the bullet are a result of the rifling on the barrel. They don't normally do that.. At least not unless they hit something much harder than they are.. It's Still a pretty impressive video though.


Also, that girl taking a photo of herself every day keeps getting updated... every 6 months or so..

 

And, inevitably...

 

This seems appropriately evil for my 666th post...
