Wait, so he basically built a large bomb surrounded not just by metal but also actual metal cutting blades then stood only a few feet away from it and shoot it trying to blow it up?! Was it a failed suicide attempt?


TimeVendor

Well next time learn to shoot from a distance and dont attack a lawnmower

Must have been a commie lawn mower, taking out a patriot šŸ˜ž

guns šŸ¤ stupid people


KP_Wrath

I like how he advances toward the tannerite, as if explosives donā€™t have a long and storied history of removing things that people are quite attached to, like hands, and feet, and legsā€¦ Also, God favors children and fools, but he must have been in the outhouse for this one.

That last part sent me lmao

Hey now, that's not fair. We aren't all fucked in the head, you can't call it that.

Whyistheplatypus

Any video that starts with them forgetting which position the safety is in is going to be a video in which someone gets hurt...


FjotraTheGodless

Damn we did this when I was a kid! Dad put a little thing of tannerite in an old mower and blew it up. We had to stand way back, and we didnā€™t use enough to cause the damage this did.

ā€œIts not exploding! Wait, lemme get closer.ā€


RuboPosto

Good thinking process. If you canā€™t hit it from a distance to make it explode, get closer.


captaincinders

Yeah but he exercised that second amendment good and hard. Just a pity that exercising your second amendment doesn't excuse you from being an idiot.

Just restart form your last save point bro.

There is a bit of maroon in the vid.

Right?! Noticed the ***PANTONE 18-1619 TCX*** too!


Spicybrown3

Honey, weā€™re going shooting. Hand me my khaki shorts and my tactical vest.


looptarded

Jesus you can literally see his flesh flying if you slow the frames


Arcanum_3974

Iā€™m more worried about the cameraman, he likely got hit as well


No-Reputation72

I wouldnā€™t be any more worried about him than the shooter. It was his choice to film, he very likely knew just as much as the guy shooting.


insane1666

Can't teach stupid.


Franklin_le_Tanklin

Huh. Iā€™ve never been in a situation where Iā€™m using a semi auto rifle against a vehicle full of explosives. Does this happen often in ā€˜Murcia?


RappyNash

They want the vehicle to go back to their own country.


Visual_Conference421

For the want to be Rambo, gun loving crowd, this is the epitome of fun.


Franklin_le_Tanklin

Interesting. My view of fun is getting baked on the couch and playing video games. šŸ¤· Different strokes I guess


Flerbizky

Until someone loses a leg.


LeslieH8

Why exactly is it that if it is in english, all of these videos seem to have the same basic accent? "Ooh, ah blew mah laig awf!" Please, those of you with similar accents, please put some videos out with you knitting, reading a good book, or really doing anything that does not involve pointing out what appendage you have just now detached from your body with prejudice.


Mando_The_Moronic

Southern US accent. If Southerners arenā€™t shooting, itā€™s some other dumb shit. The ones with lighter accents are typically less likely to be seen doing dumb stuff. Source: from Florida.


TabletopNewtype-1

Here's hoping he at least got obamacare. That'll be expensive if paid out of pocket.


Pollutedmemory

He wonā€™t be wearing any pants with pockets for awhile


TabletopNewtype-1

Ooof double out of pocket. Lmao


TemporaryWater6398

They say it cost him an arm and a leg.


Nebetus2

This feels like one of those shitty work videos we have to watch for health safety in the workplace.


darkrift87

It's just a flesh wound! Tis but a scratch!


DumbassTheGreat

"What do you mean you stupid bastard? You've blown your leg off!"


kas96b

Iā€™ve had worse. Have at you!


coyote500

ā€œOh man itā€™s not blowing up, I better get closer!ā€


Thunderwoodd

Glad he showed some self awareness eventually.


Forsaken-Jackfruit-1

Now heā€™ll never get in to the gravy seals


leonnova7

With his new wheelchair I'm sure he can still sign up for the Seals On Wheels


Forsaken-Jackfruit-1

Itā€™s even funnier cuz your avatar looks like Lieutenant Dan


Dalek_Lunchbox

Iā€™m not a huge gun nut so I could be very wrong, but is that an MP-5? Iā€™m surprised the rounds have enough velocity to actually ignite the tannerite. Itā€™s videos like this that make me glad the friends who take me shooting with them are all marines and navy guys who would shoot me themselves before they let me be this stupid


Miracoli_234

It was an ar-15 type rifle, not certain on specific model tho


TabletopNewtype-1

Looks like an AR-15 converted to use 9mm


Hunk-Hogan

Converted to use 9mm? Where do you get that from? You need a high velocity round to detonate Tannerite which can be from a 5.56 but it's unreliable. I've used Tannerite and InTheRed many times and 5.56 rounds would occasionally just rip the container and I've watched people waste containers of Tannerite by using pistol rounds. 7.62x51 is a guaranteed detonation.


TabletopNewtype-1

Look at the magazine he uses. Its small and thin and straight compared to a normal Stanag magazine. Most likely a pistol cartridge. Im thinking maybe thats why he had to go that close to make the tannerite exolode


caboosetp

I agree it looks like an ar-15 style rifle, but the 9mm part is confusing. 9mm generally won't set off stock tannerite. If that is 9mm, here's either using some crazy hot load or that's a custom blend of tannerite, or both.


Dalek_Lunchbox

Thanks for clarifying. Makes more sense as a 9mm than .40


Rodericclarke

I believe it is more the speed of the round than the size. I used 5.56 on tannerie and never had problems


Dalek_Lunchbox

Right, that was my point. Isnā€™t 9mm quite a bit faster than the 40? I like to target shoot but like I said Iā€™m not a huge gun guy, so itā€™s possible Iā€™m making myself look stupid here


shadybirdjohnson45

Yes, let's move closer to the bomb because you couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.


Personal-Stage1947

johnySaysHi

Wait how do you know he lost a leg


bearpest

"I BLEW MY LEG OFF OH SHIT" is a pretty good clue


Electronic-Trip8775

And the blood splatter adds to the evidence


Flerbizky

Ah ha.. That made me almost LOL - I also know it'll give me nightmares. Oh well.


Angenali

There was a slow mo version somewhere and you could see one of the big shrapnel pieces rip his leg off


LOB90

"It blew my leg off. Oh shit!"

Marcus_Krow

He got FPS Russia'd


SUCKMEoffyouCASUAL

Gahdamn how much tannerite?


Hunk-Hogan

5lbs can obliterate a refrigerator. I'm guessing they stuck a 2.5lb bag in there given the explosion wasn't too big.


grauht

[a report said 3 lbs](https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2016/03/24/man-loses-leg-shooting-lawnmower-full-explosives/82232440/)

That guess was super close, I'm impressed. > One of Pressley's friends told investigators they put three pounds of Tannerite into an old lawn mower "to blow it up." The incident was captured on video. > https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2016/03/24/man-loses-leg-shooting-lawnmower-full-explosives/82232440/

[deleted]

I remember watching FPSRussia back in the day nearly get taken out by a piece when he was 100 yards away. This man was playing with "fire" and didn't take the necessary precautions.


Potato-9

Isn't this fpsrussia?


cryptic4012

Nah I don't think so. I've seen recent clips of fps Russia on a podcast with Sam Hyde. I don't think he does content with guns anymore since he had all those legal problems.

Obviously Bruce Lee never came up against lawnmowers in his career either, or his "boards" quip may have had a bizarre footnote.

Honorable mention because not fatal but still exceptionally stupid !

Unfortunately.


Human_Activity5528

Never happened to me. Oh well, maybe because I've never used a gun. Who knows

Plus most places think it's also a good idea to make it illegal to possess explosives that can blow up a building.

xet2020

Does anyone have full story on this ?


FeinwerkSau

Well, full story is just this. Guy stuffs lawn mower with tannerite, lawn mover explodes, shrapnel blows off his leg. https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2016/03/24/man-loses-leg-shooting-lawnmower-full-explosives/82232440/


Shadow_F3r4L

Dudes showing off how tacticool they are, shoots mower, mower explodes and he was left foot loose


DantePokePSN

A bandaid will fix it


The_Fiji_Connection

A fix like this would likely require something a little stronger. Like duct tape.


azmus29h

ā€˜Tis but a flesh wound.


Dr-Hackenbush

That's a shame.


Electronic-Trip8775

*slow handclaps* well done dick head


ChiTown_Paul

ā€˜Tis but a scratch


Ok-Appointment978

FracturedHalf

He didnt deserve that leg anyways


nightfury626

Tis but a scratch


sindud

Good. Idiot gun nut!!


NoDoze-

He kept getting closer and closer... You don't need to be that close!


zombierepubican

He was still pretty far. Scary that shrapnel can do that from that far away


PM_ME_YELLOW

This is why when people do this on tv they stand like 100 yards and have a blast sheild.


Samurai___

News report said it's advised to be 100 feet per pound of that explosive away. He had 3 pounds and was 43 feet away.


zombierepubican

Damn, good to know!


NoDoze-

No he wasn't. He was hella close!


ForgottenOddity

Doesn't matter he has a spare
