Wow, Just wow...

I'm just wondering who the idiot cameraman was who stood directly downrange...

That is almost unbelievable. If it were not for the low production quality, I would swear it was faked.

He was shooting blanks at balloons.

Watch the video again, He said he was using blanks during the draw demo, then switching to live ammo to shoot the balloons.

 

Incredibly fast, I wonder if anybody in the fast draw sport has accidentally sent one in to their thigh, it looked like he started pulling the trigger as the gun was above his leg

That two balloon shot is ridiculous.

Hippie: "Can you give any comparison that would come close, but not as fast?"

 

Sheriff Lightning: "Speed of light."

"Live ammunition" most likely consists of wax bullets. While there is no arguing that Bob Munden is fast - there is no practical use for this talent. Look at someone like Jerry Miculek and imagine him in a gun fight. I rest my case.

I have seen this before. What a douche that guy is.

Give this guy some credit. He's been doing this for a long time.

As for the skill being useless, it's exhibition shooting.

Have seen Munden hit targets with live ammunition at blinding speed...........he's the BEST.

I'm confused, are you saying Jerry would not be good in a gun fight or that he would be?

I'm saying that Jerry can shoot anything you hand him and shoot it well beyond the capabilities of mere mortal men. I think that Ed McGivern was the only shooter that might best Jerry with a handgun - but Jerry shoots everything well.

Ok yea that's what I think too, which is why I was confused when I thought you were saying the opposite.

playing gun games and actual combat are two completely different things. you cant compare standing still or running around a fake hallway shooting at nothing but paper or steel to having real humans firing real bullets at you. how do you know jerry wouldnt piss his pants if someone actually shot at him.

 

personally, id stake my union brother josh (iraq vet, ranger, sniper qualified) in a gunfight over 10 jerry miculek.

Didn't mean to equate gun games with combat - trust me, I realize that games are just that - games. However, if I was in a gunbfight and had to choose a partner, between Munden and Miculek, Jerry gets the nod every time.

 

I very much doubt that Jerry would react negatively in a gunfight. Just think of the muscle memory he has built from being a professional shooter. I gotta think that no matter how scared he is, he could run on auto-pilot and best the majority of shooters. But you are right - big difference in games and looking the elephant in the eye.

 

Adios,

 

Pizza Bob

He was shooting blanks at balloons.

 

Or cornmeal. But not real ammo, which isn't really shooting IMO. Maybe it's just me.

Bob is pretty amazing, he even was on stan lee's superhumans.

 

I would really like to see super high speed footage of that 2 baloon shot.
