Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 This video looks legit, but I always wonder about things posted on the net. Does anyone know if this is real? If so, it's pretty dang scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Interesting video. Not sure, but it looks genuine. The round hit the dirt in front of the shooter before his hat flew off. I could not tell what he was shooting, but it looked like a military modern rifle. Could not tell what the target was. Perhaps the round hit an uneven metal surface, like a bolt head, dimple in the metal or what ever and sent it back. A 180 degree ricochet in not unheard of, but not common.

Gunner Gatlin, SASS 10274L Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 looks real to me. GG ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulp, SASS#28319 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 A 180 degree ricochet in not unheard of, but not common. I've been hit by two of them. Fortunately it wasn't a .50BMG. Neither even caused a bruise, but it is a bit disconcerting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Jake1001 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Yeah, it's real. He's lucky the bullet hit the ground first to slow it down some. You can see the muzzle brake on the end of the barrel. .50 cal BMG round 750 grain bullet. It could have taken him out if it hit him in the face.

Matthew Duncan Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 At least he learned the first time around. Few co-workers 2 or 3 times before they figure out they shouldn't be doing that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seldom Seen #16162 Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 If it is real why is there a credit at the end of movie that says "Created by"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted December 4, 2010 Author Share Posted December 4, 2010 If it is real why is there a credit at the end of movie that says "Created by"? That's kinda why I wuz askin'. AVSmedia.com (prominently displayed at the beginning) is a video editing program. Makes me wonder. Yes, I'm a skeptic.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
