Man shoots himself to test body armor

Featured Replies

With a G20 no less.

 

For the moment, I'm at loss to describe this except maybe life in a trailer park is pretty boring so people do wacky things to occupy themselves. (Warning - vituperative language in this video)

I almost wish the vest didn't work and he removed himself from the gene pool...

 

What the hell makes people think this is a good idea? Best case, you have a nasty bruise and just wasted 500-1500 on a vest you can never use again. Worst case....

That level of stupidity should hurt more than that.

I'm having flashbacks to supertroopers

i got my 3A for 300. i wanna test it because that price was damn good lol NOT ON ME of course...

Whats the point of testing it? Once you "test" it, you better not wear it...

 

You couldn't pay me enough money to stand there and voluntarily shoot someone I don't want to kill, let alone be the one taking the shot.

I was referring more to the two idiots in the video. It annoys me every time the guy at my range walks in front of the gun I just laid on the counter with the action locked back. I can't imagine intentionally pointing a loaded gun at another person whom I do not wish to harm.

If I recall correctly, the inventor of modern body armor tested it on himself with a magnum caliber revolver to prove its effectiveness to police. This was in the early 1980's if I remember correctly.

 

So no, it's not an entirely crazy thing to do, but it sure isn't the smartest!

Sad part is this guy has still has more rights to firearms than anyone here in NJ.

So lemme throw this out there. Say you're arguing with an anti-gun person.

And you're like: Why do you think there should be no guns?!

Then he just shows you this video. What do you say?!

It's like: Damn! Touche. Good point... but still...

 

These people certainly don't make it any easier is what I'm sayin'.

To which you say, im anti car. Tons of people die each year in car accidents, we should ban cars. And bring up videos of car crashes on youtube.

Sure, but your argument won't be that effective until someone decides to record themself falling off a moving vehicle.

 

Oh, wait...
