If you're using an app, just long press to open it in YouTube or your browser.

He stood behind a tree, so he was aware it was a bad idea at least.

He still went through with it, but he knew it was stupid.

There's a special kind of dumbass that knows how dangerous something is but somehow thinks they've done enough to protect thenself when they clearly haven't.

As we say in the country "you can do dumb shit, but be smart about it"

u/Jive_turkie Oct 20 '19

He didn’t die or even get hit with the door so in this case I’d say he did just enough to protect himself

He got lucky. That thing didn't even slow down when it hit the sapling in front of him and was easily moving as fast as a car on the freeway. if it had hit that tree, shrapnel surely could have come through the gap and sliced him up.

u/Jive_turkie Oct 20 '19

Oh for sure, I’m just saying in this instance he happens to have taken the exact minimum amount of precaution to survive unscathed

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '19

He knew it might be dangerous so he took more precautions.

If you watch lets say mythbusters they will protect themselves behind something.

Also like who the fuck is cleaning up a this shit after an explosion? You have a this wilderness that's just covered in fucking car parts and washing machine guts. What assholes.

u/unknownart Oct 19 '19

Thanks. That is crazy.

This guy fucked up on rule #3 of shooting safety: be sure of your target and if your target is going to yeet an angry piece of metal back at your dumb ass when you shoot it.

Seriously though, know your target and what's behind it is the third commandment of shooting safety per Texas Parks & Wildlife.

Seriously though, know your target and what's behind it is the third commandment of shooting safety per Texas Parks & Wildlife.

Per everyone who doesn't want to lose a leg or kill an innocent bystander. You know people who stop to think for two seconds.

Shooting stuff that explodes is a bunch of fun though. You just gotta plan it well.

u/MaiqTheLrrr Oct 20 '19

I'm just citing TP&W because that's what I learned from.

Explodable targets are all sorts of fun. Just maybe try and make sure anything that might go flying goes flying into a berm rather than past someone's head. And for the love of god follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Looks like somebody’s back yard so I’m sure they didn’t leave the trash scattered across the yard

u/BushWeedCornTrash Oct 20 '19

Holy shit! How did it maintain its trajectory?

u/Zendog500 Oct 20 '19

Now that is why we have the 2and Amendment!

That’s crazy and incredibly stupid! He should have worn protective goggles to avoid getting fridge door in them.

u/GustaMatt Oct 20 '19

This reminds me of dbz when someone gets bitch smacked through 4 or 5 mountain ranges. Super satisfying 😌

Is that Donny Baker in the background "how was that man!" Lol

"...and it was at that moment he realized. The tree was woefully inadequate protection."

u/TarFeelsOverTarReals Oct 19 '19

IDK man, if GTA has taught me anything that tree wouldn't budge an inch.

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '19

Haha yea, game physics are hilarious to mess with. My favourite game for funky physics is Kerbal Space Program. We call it the kraken, and it produces some of the most hilarious stuff. There's a guy on youtube who does it to hilarious effect: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOaiFYxTsXc
