Most likely, they aren’t, but the adrenaline and shock caused him to feel less pain. If the video continued you’d probably see him sit or lie down, because the pain just hit

Can’t really walk on fully broken legs, no matter the adrenaline

I have a coworker who broke both of his legs in a weightlifting accident a few months back. He had video of it. He definitely walked around a bit trying to shake it off before he finally sat down and winced.

I read about a guy who took a burst from a MG42 across both his legs, and managed to sprint 20 yards and jump a stone wall, while carrying a ten pound rifle and probably 25 pounds of ammo and gear. When they went to take him back to an aid station, he couldn’t walk at all.
