@@waltergladden15 Oh i saw it too my Dude. That was cool but the outcome was unwanted. The flashbang was intended and worked flawlesly. That's why i prefer the later. Take care.
As much as I want to agree with you, I feel in this case he was more scared shitless but did not learn a thing before meeting St. Peter. We've truly raised a generation of people who just do not learn, even seconds before death.
The Darwin award was a good lesson. Not only did the "shooter" attempt to de-escalate, and back up, but he showed that he tried everything to NOT shoot.
Your comment doesn't make sense, you misspelled "brooch" (jewelry usually made of silver or gold ("gold" from "comedy gold" part of your comment, but I don't know how "comedy" works in this situation)), and jewelry doesn't scream. Can you explain what you meant?
Brandon: "So while it may look dangerous, it's really no more dangerous than me doing *THIS*" *flash-bangs his own office* Also Brandon: "Let me go put out that fire real quick"
The defender CLEARLY lowered his aim so he would hit his attacker in the chest instead of the headshot he had lined up. Good guy. Didn't wanna kill anyone, just wanted his space and safety respected
@@enigma9789 People sometimes get smart when they look down the barrel of a gun, not so much when it's pointed lower; Some aspect of self preservation regarding the importance of one's head.

Why I never got into the medical field. I believe in natural selection and humans should be no different because we have feelings of empathy and apathy.
@@wynchell.abanes Thanks, but I have to admit that I've only been actually practicing for part of that. Don't want to go full "stolen valor" or anything, lol
I know the defense in the last clip is probably shocked that he actually had to put a round in his attacker, but I cant stop chuckling at how he seems to stand there like "huh...whelp...that sucks" as the other dude is rolling around in agony.
Yesh. Watching waste of skin stiffen up and whine like that after being such a big tough guy seconds before will always be comedy gold. Straight out of a cartoon. Kudos to the guy with a gun who still called for medical help and reported what happened.
"We don't have a gun problem, we have a crippling culture problem" This is extremely true. It's not a gun problem it's a people problem. The firearm is a tool, nothing more. The person behind it gives the gun its purpose, whether it be hunting, sport shooting, self-defense etc. It's like blaming a pencil for making a spelling mistake.
That's exactly why usa needs a system to control who should be able to own a gun or not. Just some papers and controls about psy state. If americans want to keep their guns they need to accept some form of control. It would greatly help their cause.
@@mpauls85 it’s the same as if you hand a hammer to someone who doesn’t know how to use it. It’s a tool, if you don’t know how to use it mistakes will be made.
That's a good analogy. The gun is a tool but the person behind it is making a mistake in using said tool. Jokes aside for a moment, throughout history it's always been people that's the problem, the gun (the tool) doesn't know right from wrong but people do. I'll always laugh at idiots doing stupid things and immediately regretting it, same with loud mouth, chested-out wackos that get knocked the fuck out I love to see it.
definitely. Theres some countries with WAY more guns than the US and they dont have (many) shootings at all. i feel like it’s mainly the gun culture of america and the poor management of mental healthcare and increasing poverty, etc etc
@@eliashaynes3663 mental health is heavily underplayed. No one sound of mind would commit the atrocities we see here in the USA more often than I can stomach
@Okay Culture isn’t biological from the start. It is Geographical and socioeconomic, then SOMETIMES biology plays a part, not physically but mentally and emotionally. By culture, I think people refer to mental stability and socioeconomic status. The poor will do anything to become successful, including violent crime. After that comes mental health. America has some of the most violent, and some of the most depressed people around. Combine that with the sheer amount of guns in the country, and it is easy for the wrong person to get their hands on one, legally or not.
It isn't a gun issue or a cultural issue. It's a mental health issue. People who are not mentally sound should not be allowed anywhere near a firearm. Doesn't matter the race or culture.
@@squillz8310 Meanwhile, in Iceland, a very gun-loving country, they rarely have shootings or commit violent crimes. A 2020 census found that Iceland is 93% Icelandic the most significant ethnic minority is Poles who make up 3% of the population. Iceland also ranked the 4th happiest country in 2018. But I'm sure this is all a coincidence.
Brandon - Puts on sunglasses, throws a Blank Grenade, covers ears, looks cool at camera. Brandon - Sniffs the air, turns, laughs. Brandon - "Let me put out that little fire real quick." All to prove their safety for use.
The story with the dummy grenade made me remember when I went to Cambodia. There is a army base where you can pay to shoot guns, rocket launchers etc. I payed for a grenade. Because of language problems I wasn't sure if it was real. So the general stands next to me and tells me to trow it at some objesct about 10 yards away. I pull the pin and trhpw it. It makes the hissing sound and the general excitingly tells me to dug. But he's just standing there. So I called his bluff and did'nt move. And it just went, puh! Pop. We all laughed.
The last clip is a perfect scenario on why people choose to carry and defend themselves. Had he not been armed, he may have been seriously injured or worse by the aggressor. That's what proper use and proper training looks like.
The Darwin Award winner had a knife that became visible at his waist when his hoodie was removed according to other commenters who dug deeper into the incident, that law abiding citizen would have been stabbed to death.
You know a dude has that extra bit of integrity when they say "i have a team that helps me *REDUCE* risk" instead of implying it can ever be completely safe.
Props to Brandon for giving himself a Darwin award. True strength is being honest about our own mistakes in a sincere manner. Brandon may have won a Darwin award but his is on a different level than the others in this video.
The Darwin awards videos are more nominations for potential darwin awards. Brandon didn't get a Darwin award, as he's not dead, and unless my assumption is wrong, his rod and balls are still in one piece, again, if my assumption is correct. The winner of the Darwin award is basically anyone that dies through stupidity or gets a high-speed vasectomy. Merely doing stupid sh*t with a gun or explosive doesn't get you a Darwin award unless you actually managed to do one of those two things.
Back when I was a kid they brought in a guy to show gun safety. He pulled out his revolver loaded with blanks and shredded a phone book with one shot. Really sticks in my mind and shows you what schools in the 60’s were like.
I was in high school in the 80s, and had a way cool physics teacher. He invited a friend from the National Guard to bring a wargame M16 and laser harness to our class. My teacher ran around outside our class wearing the harness and we students got the chance to shoot the teacher. It was simultaneously the coolest and most Darwin thing I ever did in highschool.
I joined the cadets growing up '09-'11 and on exercise my CO loaded 1 blank round into an SA80 and shot one of those black plastic canteens with it point blank. Thing was decimated and served as a clear demonstration of why we have those big yellow bfa's strapped to the end of the barrel. He also shot a few canteens with live rounds on range day which is less relevant but rare here in UK. Good fun.
The Darwin award winner screaming like a little bitch at the end made me laugh a bit. Does that make me a bad person? (Rhetorical question; I actually don't care because it was funny as hell)
Blanks can kill for sure. Actor Jon-Erik Hexum found that out on the set of the 1984 TV series, Cover Up. He held the pistol to his temple when he jokingly played Russian roulette with a pistol loaded with blanks. The wadding from the blank drove a bone fragment from his skull into his brain which led to massive hemorrhaging. He died a week later. People unfamiliar with firearms naively think blanks are non-lethal.
@@richardtruesdell8289 technically, yes. Specifically, it was a squib round. Basically a dummy round with no powder and no primer was used for close up shots so that the audience would see a "real" bullet. The powder was properly removed. However, the onset supervisor neglected to remove the primer. The primer had enough power to push the slug from the cartridge and into the barrel, but not out. Then, they loaded the gun with "blanks" for the "smoke and fire" of a shot. Since they didn't check the pistol, the "blank" cartridge had enough power to push the wedged slug out of the barrel, though not at max velocity. However, it was enough to be deadly.
I imagine that last guy was absolutely terrified in the moment, but hearing the other guy going from "I'll kick your ass" to "HELLPPPP HEEELLLLPPP!" was actually hilarious.
My 8 year old is starting to get super curious about guns and so I'm letting him see and hold my and having to explain alot about gun safety. These videos may not be making money but they are helpful in teaching him how not to handle guns. Thank you Brandon.
Well, my favorite clip was the last one. Not because someone got justifiably shot, but because the guy defending himself DID EVERYTHING RIGHT. He had a restraining order (which we see did no good), he moved at his own expense across town, he had his carry pistol on him even though it was 5am, and he was telling the attacker to get down and was backing away the entire time. While a rabid DA may still want to charge the guy with some kind of crime because the attacker was known to him (which is what would happen where I live), the camera footage should help any jury decide quickly that the guy wasn't trying to be a hero, wasn't trying to "kill", and wasn't playing cop. He chose at the last possible minute to try and minimize the shot, bringing it down somewhat. Not the best call in my opinion, but it did the job, and he kept himself ready should that not be enough. He did a great job, and I'm hoping that he isn't suffering from the trauma of having to do that.
Sadly for our shooter, I'm sure he spent some time in mental anguish, not to mention the months long ordeal of defending himself in court depending on what state he's in
@@JJ-xw8sv With self defense rounds for sure. They are meant to possibly not exit and do as much damage as possible. Our bodies are packed with all kinds of vital organs. Some will end you faster than slower. The man attacking was not so smart. A head shot might not have ended him. Pure sarcasm, not legit saying to do it. Besides, anyone with half a brain knows how hard that shot is. Never actually try it.
Arizona has CAs (County Attorneys) not DAs (district Attorneys). And if the Maricopa County Attorney even thought about prosecuting this she'd be out on her ass in the next primary.
I think we need to have an additional category called the Baldwin Award. Given to a shooter who takes someone else out of the gene pool through blatant violation of the gun safety rules.
@@AngySumo I upvoted in support of that; hope others do, too. He ought to be immortalized for his anti-gun (unless it's making him money) stances and the safety failures he demonstrated....kind of like the irony of Joseph-Ignace Guillotin, an avid opponent of the death penalty being associated with the device he deemed "less cruel". (Though he was not executed by it himself, contrary to various internet "fact lists".)
You are the first gun advocate I have heard that has stated an actual alternate to "a gun problem" and I think you are right, America has a cultural and societal problem.
Not just America sad to say we have similar issue with knife crime in UK, knife crime and to some extent gun crime follows similr pattern to US mainly out of control young lads (usually with no fathers at home) getting involved with gangs and running amuck.
How long have you been exploring the gun advocate channels, because almost all of them have stated some variation on that at some point. Armed Lawyers, Armed Scholar, Colion Noir, Demolition Ranch, Garand Thumb, Guns & Gear, Langley Outdoor Academy, TFB TV, and many others are on that list.
@@tmac8396 Have followed Akguy for a year or 2 roughly, started following mainly after forgotten weapons a problem ak. Have watched some of the others odd times the main reason I say it a culture issue not related to guns is as I mentioned in one of the comments I made on here is in the UK we see a similar thing happening with knife crime the infamous one being London but it's happening in other areas of the country like Manchester. As a technical guy being interested in machines of all types including guns is how I came here really. If you wish a view which I share on this issue try having a look at lotuseaters. Sargon of Akkad of old and his crew have covered the issue in regard to Western attitudes towards young men especially in the media. Please don't think me rude but I am going to bed 6:30 rise and shine looms! Will answer further questions if I can tomorrow. Bfn oj
@@endless_limes The problem is new owners that weren't taught how to properly handle a firearm can buy one. Go take a safety class, save a life or prevent an accident.
The fake grenade demonstration, followed by the small fire and intermission, made me laugh. Thank you. Also got a great screenshot to share the four rules of gun safety easily. Very cool, thanks for the post, Brandon!
That wasn't a fake grenade. That was a real grenade. A flashbang grenade. Just because it's not a fragmentation grenade doesn't mean it's not a grenade.
And it's why I very much advocate for people to being allowed to legally own guns without hoolahoop levels of bullshit to go through. Sure it's fair if you need a basic certificate that shows you're competent for owning and firing such a weapon. Like how you need a driver's License before you're allowed to drive a car. And since there's retardo-ricardo out there that thinks 'huh huh, funny boint gun and benis' or be gangsta and wave around a live-round chambered gun with the most limb-wristed grips ever.... yeah some competent people needs to be armed to help make sure those lunatics dun go 'time to kill some people' and be able to do so without anyone being able to defend themselves.
@@itspuff3861 aaaaaaa....those numbers are BS. Anyone can pick the ages that will give them the numbers they are looking for. Remember, gangsters, criminals, suicides are engaged in violence or dealing with mental illness. Try again!
Last guy found what it feels like to join the phuck around and find out club. Kudos to the defender, excellent muzzle awareness, tried de-escalation and only fired when the attacker gave him no other choice.
And even lowered his shot to not instantly press the forbidden off button. GG to that guy, could have easily taken the shot at his dome, but still tried to do minimal damage.
For those interested there is analysis of the last guy on the Active Self Protection channel at the following link: th-cam.com/video/UJBGkbehCQE/w-d-xo.html
@@AngySumo I think his intention was more to guarantee that he hit. A headshot at that range is difficult and he might've missed, at which point the other guy would've attacked him
@@filmandfirearms I mean, at that distance he might as well have placed the muzzle on the attacker's forehead, he would not be missing. definitely lowered his stance to make a less messy scene
@@riograndedosulball248 agreed, he didn't want to kill the man, the move and restraining order makes that clear. I'll bet the attacker has a mental condition, like schizophrenia, and the defender was aware of this
Every time i watch these, I always think "huh, if I did that, my tinnitus would really be kicking in." That has never been more true than watching Brandon setting off a bang in a room.
Many years ago, I attended a play set during the Second World War II. The last act called for the use of a prop gun (which I'm pretty sure was a Makarov), which besides being adapted to fire blanks, was using cartridges downcharged as much as possible (during the very first show, it FTE'd on the second to last round, which was fine, because the actor that was supposed to be fake bleeding was fake bleeding and it was supposed to be empty anyways). In part, it was the relatively small space they had to work in, but even with the reduced charges, it was still astoundingly loud.
Its interesting to see the defender in the final clip actually aim at the attacker's head then move down. He had plenty of time to go for the dome but decided against the more likely to be lethal shot and go for center mass or lower. Dude was really level headed the entire time i bet
Adding to the last clip - The guy trying to "fight" was staked outside the defender's home at like 4:30am. The guy couldn't of had good intentions with that knife, seeing as he stalked him from a diff place and waiting for him so early in the morning.
The genius level he reached by attempting to fist fight a oncoming 9mm round. What level of smarts is needed to think you're so tough you can tank a bullet in a fist fight?
When I was at Gunnery camp, the Lt. placed an apple on top of a fire hydrant, loaded a Lee Enfield trainer rifle (Mk unknown, number unknown, but was a .303 converted to .22lr and we were using blanks for, well, rifle drill training purposes) with a blank, stood about 2 feet from the apple, pointed it at said apple, pulled the trigger, and the apple exploded. Following that, he said something to the effect of "Cadet Apple is now dead! And that is why you must be very careful about where the firearm is pointed, especially those of you in the second and third ranks; or the cadet in front of you will turn out like Cadet Apple."
@@ParadigmUnkn0wn you're right, exaggeration on my part. In reality, was well within a foot, to stimulate the range it would be when held at the ready in the rear ranks. In either case, best case scenario, misses everyone completely. Not as great a case scenario, it hits the white top on the cadet in front of you. Worst case scenario, you hit the poor guy's head. When you're within arms reach of the person in front of you, even a blank can be lethal.
In that self defense clip; the defender hesitated for a split second and went from aiming center mass to lower abdomen to avoid straight up killing the other guy. Even in that moment he was in control. Great to see.
Plus it sounds like it was on a shopping street or near restaurants, so there's a risk of hitting bystanders. He knew his target and what was behind it.
Yeah but now it'll become a legal problem, and the attacker can sue for damages, given the right judge, jury and prosecution, the defending shooter in that last part could get screwed over big time, when I was in high-school back in 2001 or 2002 our dare officers even said if given a choice between shooting to kill or to injure, every one of those officers said shoot to kill, it's less paperwork in the end and there is nobody to testify against you as an injured party, they did stress the fact to avoid unnecessary loss of life but if you feel the need to draw a firearm in fear of your own life then follow through to the end, or don't even think about carrying or pointing a firearm to begin with, the simple act of feeling threatened enough to have to pull a firearm is enough for most cops to understand the loss of life from an assailant, of course they need all the info for reports and stuff, but most generally it is an easy proof of self defense for most situations, it would be interesting to find out exactly how the rest of that evening played out, with cops and legal stuff...
I appreciate the behavior of the last one especially. Keeping the weapon trained on the assailant even after he was down to prevent a secondary attack is a good practice until you KNOW the attacker is neutralized.
Blank rounds being "harmless" and leg shooting as a less-lethal way to incapacitate a person are two of the biggest gun myths that not enough people take into consideration.
In blanks the casing can break off and act like a projectile while it's not aerodynamic a piece of casing traveling near the speed of a bullet at point blank is deadly
Holy CRAP the context of that Darwin award is important. At first, seeing a guy challenging the gun owner to a fistfight had me thinking the guy with the gun wasn't responding with the appropriate amount of force. However, the context being stalking (which statistically almost always ends in horrible violence to the victim), plus a restraining order, plus the guy having a knife in his waistband, allllll adds up to this guy just trying to trick this guy into putting the gun down so he could stab him.
Honestly none of that even matters. He still would be justified. Any person trying to challenge me to a fight at 5:30 am in front my house is for sure a psycho and someone I do not want to fight.
@@johncena-hq1ti Yea it was the appropriate amount of force pretty much regardless of context, unless the context was it was all a joke or something. Now whether that's legally the appropriate amount of force might vary from state to state depending on stand your ground laws or whatever but on just a human rights level if someone is assaulting you and you try to back away and tell them to leave, AND they know you have a gun but won't cease hostilities, it's time to put a bullet in them.
@@RealPlanet.1231 very true. Who tries to start a fight with a random person (with a gun) at 5am? Didn't sound drunk or under the influence, though it isn't always easy to tell.
Honestly it’s a toss up, on the one hand I liked that you were listening to us and featured yourself but honestly seeing a creepy stalker get what he deserved (his own Darwin Award) was just as appealing.
That blank to the head had me remember something from almost 25 years ago, when I did mandatory military service in Germany. During a training exercise, a few of us were manning a guard post and were pretty bored, when a non-com turned up, dripping fake blood everywhere. So after showing we learned our first-aid stuff, two of us then carried him to the medic tent, quite some distance away. A few of the others, even more bored, started playing around with the guns. None of us had any ammunition, but when one guy pointed a gun at another's face, just a foot away, suddenly there was a "pop" and that other guy got white as a sheet. Turns out the sarge had left his gun when pretending to be unconcious, and had some of the green things loaded that make some mediocre noise, but are pretty harmless otherwise. Just then the company commander was spotted being on his way to us, so the people involded hastily sprayed some deodorant and waved it around the room to hide the smell of burnt powder. Then we put all the guns neatly together, but were still chewed out as we had miscounted and had missed one of one of the guys that had gone with the sarge. Had the sergeant had loaded anything else, that could have ended pretty badly. And the guys taking the sarge away should have taken their and his guns with them. This was all the rules of gun safety at once, adding "guns are no toys", "don't play with other people's guns", and "keep your gun with you". I don't think anyone involved or watching this did any stupid shit with guns again.
While doing my mandatory service at the Bundeswehr, I went in as an extra for some extended training exercise of the new soldiers fresh out of the basic training. Prior to the training days, we were all instructed several times to always handle blank fire rounds as if they were live rounds. Especially, not to toy around with the guns, not to aim directly at anyone at any given moment, not to restrain any comrades and absolutely no "execution" plays. It was the second day of the extended training where they had to get one of the freshmen into the hospital for treatment of a blast trauma... Later that day I heard that some idiots tied his hands behind his back and fired a blank from a G36 (.223 Remington) with the muzzle less then a meter next to his ear. As far as I know he did not suffer any lasting injuries at least. Luckily that was the only incident in this training. On the good side, I had the opportunity to blank-fire a G3 way above the heads of the new recruits to simulate an attack. 7.62x51 is a lot beefier compared to the sound of the G36 we were used to.
@@Shadow_Lunatale If I remember correctly (the time is a bit of a haze, due to sleep deprivation and the time that has passed since then), that incident was at the end of basic training (2 of the 10 total months we had to serve back then) We had the G3 then. The G36 was being rolled out, but as supply and logistics, we still had the old ones. Of course, we had been told how (not) to handle guns, but 18 to 20 year old boys bored out of their minds tend to forget things. And then, as T7, we didn't have much experience with the guns, just had target practice a few times, and had just been parked at the guard post to not get in the way. So nobody expected any ammunition of any kind to be around. So this turned out to be a great lesson about any gun potentially being loaded. If it had been a real blank instead of those green ones, I think the guy with his face in front of the muzzle would have gotten some burns or worse and everyone in the room would have had their ears ringing. And it would probably have been heard outside. That's not to say those training dummies were totally harmless. I think I have slightly damaged my hearing when I was still fumbling with my protection while the rest of the squad was firing all at once. And to explain the "T7" I mentioned earlier, for anyone not familiar with the German mustering system (back then): Before you were drawn for service, you were examined medically. Then you werer either assigned T1, T2, or T3 as being (mostly) fit for service, or T5 for being unfit and exempted from service. At least in my time, therer was also T7, which meant you were practically unfit, but not so much as to be exempt and still be usable in some support position. I think what did it for me was my bee allergy, but as the group had mixed problems, they had to find the least common denominator. Training was *very* basic, you'd only get to shoot your gun a few times, had bivouac indoors, would not get worked to exhaustion but on the other hand, missed the fun stuff, too, like shooting machine guns or throwing grenades. And your assignment later would be the most boring one possible (in my case: picking small items from storage or sorting and putting things away, in between alot of waiting for transport to deliver or pick up stuff).
It warms my heart to see a violent idiot get dropped by a defensive shooter who is 100% in the right. I don't live in the states, there are situations where ive been attacked by multiple people and one situation where i was stabbed and a gun would of saved me from serious harm (thankfully not death, but i could of died, a friend of mine was killed recently by being hit over the head and falling asleep) So to see a normal innocent civillian defend himself from a violent idiot is a nice thing to see. Sadly we don't have that here.
I used to live in a rough neighboorhood too, so I went medieval and started wearing a home-made shirt of butted-ring chainmail under my hoddies, or in my coats. it actually saved me some pain once, as the leather of the coat plus the resistance from the rings stopped an incoming blade to the guts. I had one heck of a bruise and a slight knick, but apart from that I was pretty much unharmed. The guy who stabbed me, however, was high as fuck at the time and turned himself in shortly after because he was sure he'd killed me!!!
@@krakenpots5693 The jacket did more than the rings. Butted maille is for fancy cosplay. That's not armor. Real maille was/is secured via iron rivets. Glad lady luck saw you through and you had multiple layers of protection.
@@thisdude9363 Thanks for your answer! I like to think that the butted mail did help: the area the blade came in was much larger on the outside of the jacket than on the inside, and the rings were hardly forced apart. Maybe I was simply lucky. Maybe the blow wasn't as powerfull as I perceived it. (Edit: the mail was also a six-in-one pattern maybe this also helped.) There are historical examples of butted mail existing (because if you're poor and can't afford the time and labor an armourer has to put into rivetting your armour together, then you go for the next best thing!), but of course, as you pointed out, it doesn't hold a candle to rivetted mail. Nowadays butted mail is too often used for fancy cosplay, I agree, but as a reenactor, I can assure you that butted mail has it's place in certain time periods, and on certain "characters". In any case, thanks for your reply! Have a good one!
I felt like such a horrible person for laughing at today's winner. When he goes "oweweeowww" after talking all that shit I couldn't help but bust out laughing 🤣
I do kinda feel bad for the guy. Getting shot is just a bad time no matter who you are. And it sounds like this guy had some real problems, so it’s sad that it ended like this rather than him getting the help he needed to become a better person. That said, I still laughed at his squealing.
gun safety rules: 1) do not hold a loaded gun to your head, even if it was handed to you by a complete stranger 2) do not use ak-47 drunk and one-handed when children are standing around 3) do not put loaded weapons in your pants 4) do not walk naked and aggressively towards people who have a gun pointed at your head Of course, all this only applies if you don't want to die
Brandon, that Russian guy 9:32 is generally very skilled with weapons. And yes, it was a mock-up of a real grenade. this guy has his own channel "715 Team"
those mockups are generally very crappy, especially airsoft grenades... grenades arent supposed to go off after pulling the pin, but after the spoon is released, but several airsoft grenades i have seen have a "decorative" spoon and triggers from the pin being removed
@@TheTundraTerror I'm just going off all his choices and body language. He looked like he was doing the most to not shoot him. And maybe he also didn't want to kill him. But maybe I am wrong and he aimed center mass for better chance of hit and follow up shots.
you would think so but that's not true. there is only one reason so use deadly force and that is to kill. you can actually be sued for attempting to shoot to wound. i learned about several cases while getting my CJ degree.
@@T0tenkampf Yeah but we don't know this guy's level of experience or familiarity with the law. Also the human instinct not to harm others is a well documented effect even on trained soldiers. But what you are saying could be right and I could be wrong.
Brandon is like the cool dad you had before the divorce with all the awesome toys and badass personality your mom doesn’t want you to be around cause he’s probably a bad influence even though he clearly cares about having fun and being safe while doing it… to a degree.
He’s like my 6th grade science teacher that let us build rockets and stuff M-80s in them, make methane filled blimps, and thermite. Needless to say, science at school was fun in the 1970s. And none of ever got hurt, but we learned to blow up stuff real good!
What conversation i imagined when brandon mentioned the caliber of his pipegun: "oh check out my 9mm pistol" " well that's cute, check out my like, 20mm double barrel handgun" 😂
I remember a time on deployment, we had some guys in the village near by celebrating with their AKs, we didn't know at the time and when our radar picked up the rounds we thought it was mortar fire and we almost LEVELED them with 120 mortars and 155 Arty.
And this reminds me of the (probably not true) story of some cops out and about with the radar gun when a fighter jet was flying by pretty low, and they thought it would be funny if they clocked the jet. It caused the radar gun to malfunction so they had to get it looked at. When they wrote to the nearby air force base and complained about their radar gun being out of commission, they got a reply along the lines: "Be happy our pilot was quick to override counter measures before the jet could automatically fire a HARM missle at the radar."
The "celebration clip" actually made me pause. I don´t know whats going to happen but I have already digested my food, had a leisure walk outside and I am not going to turn on my system because a bloke is unable to value life. :D I will enjoy the comments and continue tommorow after my sleep. Thanks for uploading :D
that last clip is a prime example of how firearms are a great tool for self-defense. if someone really thinks that the dude with a gun should rot in prison, you really need to take a step back and think about thr situation and why he did what he did.
Especially if the state in question has a zero bail policy. Why let criminals go more easily if the law abiding citizen has to stay behind bars because they are new to the system & have no file that merely needs to be updated to reflect any new scars or tattoos & address changes?
Except in the hellholes of liberal states. In Hawaii, where I lived for 5 years, the shooter would absolutely have been charged. He could have retreated and could have tried at least tried to get away by outrunning the idiot, which under Hawaii law says he is defending himself! Of course here in any sane state that was about perfect!
The last clip is my favorite because of two things 1: how immediately the attacker folded and started to cry “OW” 2: the amazing trigger discipline, he has the gun out but aimed down at the ground, giving off the warning that I will shoot you if you don’t back up.
gave him 2 cahnces to stop to. Raised the gun pointed at his neck or face. A clear threat of "I AM READY YOU BLAST YOU, LAST WARNING" But when he took that last step he lowered it then fired when it was clear he would not back down. Im pretty sure he lowered it so it wasnt a 100% killshot, Nobody want to kill someone regardless of the situation even when justified.
@@BlueBD are there any details of what happened afterwards? Like, did they call (or have some one call) for paramedics? I understand the implication by the Darwin awards that the attacker probably didn’t survive, but i do wonder what the full aftermath was here
@@BlueBD i remember a quote somewhere, I can’t remember though if my dad said it to me or if it was a movie/tv quote. “The minute you pull out a gun and aim it at someone, it means you plan to kill them.”
@@Armin2012 I dont know myself but i saw somewhere on here that said the dude did die not that long afterwards. I assume he bleed out before paramedics arrived.
That last case is probably also a good example for how to handle that situation after the aggressor was incapacitated. It looked like the defender was fingering for his phone afterwards to call for help - police and ambulance. Mind you that, if you have a Knive and attack someone with a gun and are shot down, you will likely not get first aid before you are unconscious. It is too risky, especially if the person with the gun is the only person that could aid. Also do not stalk people!
Dude sounded like a cat in heat, and no one here is bad for laughing at that shit. Dude knew what he was doing and attacked. Get fucked, and let that be a lesson to others.
@@YukiA816 He died; so probably not that over dramatic. I think it grazed his heart? Can't remember though, quite an old video, and I might be thinking of Huber on the heart think. I for sure remember this dude died too.
@@Rspsand07 I was also basing it on the background given. The accusations of theft, having to go to rehab, and what he was saying while trying to fight the guy. No accountability and over dramatic and it caused his death. No sympathy from me
Angry Cops review of the pipe gun video was freaking hilarious. I'd love to have heard the calls and read the messages you received from your friends. 😂 Props for including it though.
honestly the worst part about that first video and videos like that, is usually those people who are stupid enough to do shit like that, are also too stupid to blame themselves. i have no doubt they'd end up blaming the gun and start advocating for banning guns just cos they can't trust themselves with one.
So I had a homeless guy pull a knife on me. I pulled my gun, he then tried goading me into putting the gun away to 'fight like a man'. I just kept my hold on him until he put the knife down and decided to walk away. Then I called the cops. I'm just glad I didn't have to plug the guy. Definitely good that last guy stuck to his guns, literally.
@@jiaan100 possibly, there was some benefit as all the homeless in the area moved away from that particular building. Also happened to be my place of work at the time.
I had a lifelong criminal shitbag come into my work a few weeks ago with a tree branch he turned into a club. Started threatening me and my boss. He came pretty close to getting plugged glad I didn't have to shoot him. Cops got him but only charged him with mischief.
The editing on that last clip was gold. I know a dude got an award but I can't stop laughing at his screams. Full marks to gun guy, he tried everything to avoid it but the dude chose his own fate.
I don't recall him putting his "FOOT" in the attackers family jewels...😁 Keep in mind, in this situation, I agree that he was in the right to just use the gun, it was SAFER for him in the end.

I'm glad my boy defended himself well. Stalking is no joke and homie looked prepared. Probably aimed down to be considerate of the surrounding people. He was prepared.
Gotta add, if Mr. Owie was in Shooter's neighborhood, not vice versa, the stalking/stand your ground law would hold up, as well as self defence. And as its on camera, shows he WAS trying to back away, and Owie wasn't having it. If he was armed, even if not holding it, it was 100% justified. If I'd been on a jury, I'd have acquitted him.
My immediate thought is that he decided he didn't want to go for a direct kill shot and decided to shoot in the chest on the off chance that it wouldn't absolutely kill him rather than a headshot that would be more likely to kill. But maybe he was trying not to shoot into the houses around if it was at 5:00 in the morning. I can't imagine that there'd be too many people just randomly walking the street.
I got the impression that he w Didn't want to shoot the attacker in the face and immediately kill him, I think he was trying to end it while also trying not to kill the man.
The only real pucker factor was, he left the guy get WAY too close to him. Watch training videos that show the dangers of letting assailants get closer than 20 feet.

As much as I want to agree with you, I feel in this case he was more scared shitless but did not learn a thing before meeting St. Peter. We've truly raised a generation of people who just do not learn, even seconds before death.

The defender CLEARLY lowered his aim so he would hit his attacker in the chest instead of the headshot he had lined up. Good guy. Didn't wanna kill anyone, just wanted his space and safety respected
That and what could be behind him if the bullet goes thru.
He shouldnt have been aiming for his head to begin with.

I know the defense in the last clip is probably shocked that he actually had to put a round in his attacker, but I cant stop chuckling at how he seems to stand there like "huh...whelp...that sucks" as the other dude is rolling around in agony.
He reaches for his phone. Probably called for emergency services immediately.

Yesh. Watching waste of skin stiffen up and whine like that after being such a big tough guy seconds before will always be comedy gold. Straight out of a cartoon. Kudos to the guy with a gun who still called for medical help and reported what happened.

I think I need help but I sure as hell don’t got the money and time for it.
"We don't have a gun problem, we have a crippling culture problem"
This is extremely true. It's not a gun problem it's a people problem. The firearm is a tool, nothing more. The person behind it gives the gun its purpose, whether it be hunting, sport shooting, self-defense etc. It's like blaming a pencil for making a spelling mistake.
More accurately it's like blaming a pencil for writing disgusting disgusting fanfiction.
That's exactly why usa needs a system to control who should be able to own a gun or not. Just some papers and controls about psy state. If americans want to keep their guns they need to accept some form of control. It would greatly help their cause.
If you hand a lot of people pencils, you will have a lot of spelling mistakes. Especially if you don't teach them to write!
@@mpauls85 it’s the same as if you hand a hammer to someone who doesn’t know how to use it. It’s a tool, if you don’t know how to use it mistakes will be made.
That's a good analogy. The gun is a tool but the person behind it is making a mistake in using said tool. Jokes aside for a moment, throughout history it's always been people that's the problem, the gun (the tool) doesn't know right from wrong but people do. I'll always laugh at idiots doing stupid things and immediately regretting it, same with loud mouth, chested-out wackos that get knocked the fuck out I love to see it.
I love how defeated and accepting of his fate Grenade dude was.

Love that quote Brandon :
"We don't have a gun problem in this country. We have a culture problem."
No better way to put it 👍
definitely. Theres some countries with WAY more guns than the US and they dont have (many) shootings at all. i feel like it’s mainly the gun culture of america and the poor management of mental healthcare and increasing poverty, etc etc
@@eliashaynes3663 mental health is heavily underplayed. No one sound of mind would commit the atrocities we see here in the USA more often than I can stomach
@Okay Culture isn’t biological from the start. It is Geographical and socioeconomic, then SOMETIMES biology plays a part, not physically but mentally and emotionally.
By culture, I think people refer to mental stability and socioeconomic status. The poor will do anything to become successful, including violent crime. After that comes mental health. America has some of the most violent, and some of the most depressed people around. Combine that with the sheer amount of guns in the country, and it is easy for the wrong person to get their hands on one, legally or not.
It isn't a gun issue or a cultural issue. It's a mental health issue. People who are not mentally sound should not be allowed anywhere near a firearm. Doesn't matter the race or culture.
@@squillz8310 Meanwhile, in Iceland, a very gun-loving country, they rarely have shootings or commit violent crimes. A 2020 census found that Iceland is 93% Icelandic the most significant ethnic minority is Poles who make up 3% of the population. Iceland also ranked the 4th happiest country in 2018. But I'm sure this is all a coincidence.
Brandon - Puts on sunglasses, throws a Blank Grenade, covers ears, looks cool at camera.
Brandon - Sniffs the air, turns, laughs.
Brandon - "Let me put out that little fire real quick."
All to prove their safety for use.
The story with the dummy grenade made me remember when I went to Cambodia. There is a army base where you can pay to shoot guns, rocket launchers etc. I payed for a grenade. Because of language problems I wasn't sure if it was real. So the general stands next to me and tells me to trow it at some objesct about 10 yards away. I pull the pin and trhpw it. It makes the hissing sound and the general excitingly tells me to dug. But he's just standing there. So I called his bluff and did'nt move. And it just went, puh! Pop. We all laughed.
The last clip is a perfect scenario on why people choose to carry and defend themselves. Had he not been armed, he may have been seriously injured or worse by the aggressor. That's what proper use and proper training looks like.
That last clip was beautiful, provided everything Brandon said was real.
There's a reason the Uk is way more violent than the us
If the perp had been black, the shooter would be in prison.
The Darwin Award winner had a knife that became visible at his waist when his hoodie was removed according to other commenters who dug deeper into the incident, that law abiding citizen would have been stabbed to death.
I feel like a psycho saying this but his screams are way too entertaining and I want them as a ringtone
14:37 confronting some one with a gun using a bare hand is s2pd decision ever 🤣🤣🤣
Love how Brandon casually does what every CSGO player has done before...flashed themselves
@AnonymousNoname i am genuinely fucking surprised you didn't sober back up into pure anger after having a fucking flashbang detonated at your feet
You know a dude has that extra bit of integrity when they say "i have a team that helps me *REDUCE* risk" instead of implying it can ever be completely safe.
That or they are an accounting auditor ha.
Also the fact that he relies on other people instead of just his own experience and intuition
As an actual professional safety man, I respect this.
Props to Brandon for giving himself a Darwin award. True strength is being honest about our own mistakes in a sincere manner. Brandon may have won a Darwin award but his is on a different level than the others in this video.
I don't think you understand what a Darwin Award is
The Darwin awards videos are more nominations for potential darwin awards. Brandon didn't get a Darwin award, as he's not dead, and unless my assumption is wrong, his rod and balls are still in one piece, again, if my assumption is correct. The winner of the Darwin award is basically anyone that dies through stupidity or gets a high-speed vasectomy. Merely doing stupid sh*t with a gun or explosive doesn't get you a Darwin award unless you actually managed to do one of those two things.
Yep, Brandon only gave himself (earned) a Nomination < Peanut gallery where you clap politely for the Actual Winner of the Award (last clip).
I mean Angry Cops kinda made sure he did….or else
I did like how he knew that was a sketchy result and stood up and checked himself for injuries.
8:31 I like how the guy still continues whatever he's doing on the computer like it's nothing.
Back when I was a kid they brought in a guy to show gun safety. He pulled out his revolver loaded with blanks and shredded a phone book with one shot. Really sticks in my mind and shows you what schools in the 60’s were like.
I genuinely think that should be a mandatory lesson in modern schools.
That is very good demo of the blanks though!
I was in high school in the 80s, and had a way cool physics teacher. He invited a friend from the National Guard to bring a wargame M16 and laser harness to our class. My teacher ran around outside our class wearing the harness and we students got the chance to shoot the teacher. It was simultaneously the coolest and most Darwin thing I ever did in highschool.
I joined the cadets growing up '09-'11 and on exercise my CO loaded 1 blank round into an SA80 and shot one of those black plastic canteens with it point blank. Thing was decimated and served as a clear demonstration of why we have those big yellow bfa's strapped to the end of the barrel.
He also shot a few canteens with live rounds on range day which is less relevant but rare here in UK. Good fun.
I thought the boy scouts and schools had a gun and shooting club.
I love the last thing the Darwin winner yells before getting dropped is 'DO IT' and then cried like he didn't get exactly what he asked for.
Yeah. Guy pretty much asked for it
Play stupid games win stupid prizes
FAAFO.
And squeal like a bitch.
The Darwin award winner screaming like a little bitch at the end made me laugh a bit. Does that make me a bad person? (Rhetorical question; I actually don't care because it was funny as hell)
I think I've learned more about gun safety through these videos than I have when I was taking the rifle merit badge in boy scouts.
Bro same 😂
Did you ever get to shotgun shooting? They cover it a bit more due to you having to do skeet shooting.
I don't know man, they told me not to point guns at myself. I listened until the benis meme. I've been pretty good. Lmao
Nah, didn't get into shotguns. I did archery instead.
Same
Blanks can kill for sure. Actor Jon-Erik Hexum found that out on the set of the 1984 TV series, Cover Up. He held the pistol to his temple when he jokingly played Russian roulette with a pistol loaded with blanks. The wadding from the blank drove a bone fragment from his skull into his brain which led to massive hemorrhaging. He died a week later. People unfamiliar with firearms naively think blanks are non-lethal.
Also Brandon Lee was killed with a blank round.
@@richardtruesdell8289 technically, yes. Specifically, it was a squib round. Basically a dummy round with no powder and no primer was used for close up shots so that the audience would see a "real" bullet. The powder was properly removed. However, the onset supervisor neglected to remove the primer. The primer had enough power to push the slug from the cartridge and into the barrel, but not out. Then, they loaded the gun with "blanks" for the "smoke and fire" of a shot. Since they didn't check the pistol, the "blank" cartridge had enough power to push the wedged slug out of the barrel, though not at max velocity. However, it was enough to be deadly.
I imagine that last guy was absolutely terrified in the moment, but hearing the other guy going from "I'll kick your ass" to "HELLPPPP HEEELLLLPPP!" was actually hilarious.

Experience is the best teacher. Witnessing other people's experience is a close second.
It's always more effective to gun-safe a kid than to kid-safe a gun, and erasing the mystery of guns is the best first step.
@@Stevarooni this statement right here. Everyone listen in.
Same here. This is super helpful on showing the consequences of ignoring the rules.
DONT LET HIM HOLD YOUR GUNS LOL😮
Well, my favorite clip was the last one. Not because someone got justifiably shot, but because the guy defending himself DID EVERYTHING RIGHT. He had a restraining order (which we see did no good), he moved at his own expense across town, he had his carry pistol on him even though it was 5am, and he was telling the attacker to get down and was backing away the entire time. While a rabid DA may still want to charge the guy with some kind of crime because the attacker was known to him (which is what would happen where I live), the camera footage should help any jury decide quickly that the guy wasn't trying to be a hero, wasn't trying to "kill", and wasn't playing cop. He chose at the last possible minute to try and minimize the shot, bringing it down somewhat. Not the best call in my opinion, but it did the job, and he kept himself ready should that not be enough. He did a great job, and I'm hoping that he isn't suffering from the trauma of having to do that.
Since he was being stalked by the Darwin Award "winner", I hope he finally has peace!
Sadly for our shooter, I'm sure he spent some time in mental anguish, not to mention the months long ordeal of defending himself in court depending on what state he's in
There's no "minimizing" a gun shot at a person, and there's no shooting someone without the intent to "kill." Stay wherever you're at, homie.
@@JJ-xw8sv With self defense rounds for sure. They are meant to possibly not exit and do as much damage as possible. Our bodies are packed with all kinds of vital organs. Some will end you faster than slower. The man attacking was not so smart. A head shot might not have ended him. Pure sarcasm, not legit saying to do it. Besides, anyone with half a brain knows how hard that shot is. Never actually try it.
Arizona has CAs (County Attorneys) not DAs (district Attorneys). And if the Maricopa County Attorney even thought about prosecuting this she'd be out on her ass in the next primary.
Defensive fire: Rather be judged by 10 than carried by six.
Always make sure the aggressor cannot show up in court.
I think we need to have an additional category called the Baldwin Award. Given to a shooter who takes someone else out of the gene pool through blatant violation of the gun safety rules.

@@AngySumo I upvoted in support of that; hope others do, too. He ought to be immortalized for his anti-gun (unless it's making him money) stances and the safety failures he demonstrated....kind of like the irony of Joseph-Ignace Guillotin, an avid opponent of the death penalty being associated with the device he deemed "less cruel". (Though he was not executed by it himself, contrary to various internet "fact lists".)
This is a fantastic idea! Hopefully Brandon sees this.
Yes please.
You are the first gun advocate I have heard that has stated an actual alternate to "a gun problem" and I think you are right, America has a cultural and societal problem.
Not just America sad to say we have similar issue with knife crime in UK, knife crime and to some extent gun crime follows similr pattern to US mainly out of control young lads (usually with no fathers at home) getting involved with gangs and running amuck.
How long have you been exploring the gun advocate channels, because almost all of them have stated some variation on that at some point.
Armed Lawyers, Armed Scholar, Colion Noir, Demolition Ranch, Garand Thumb, Guns & Gear, Langley Outdoor Academy, TFB TV, and many others are on that list.
What kind of cultural and societal problem? Also isn't guns part of American culture, so doesn't that make guns a problem by default?
@@tmac8396 Have followed Akguy for a year or 2 roughly, started following mainly after forgotten weapons a problem ak.

As a technical guy being interested in machines of all types including guns is how I came here really. If you wish a view which I share on this issue try having a look at lotuseaters.

"We do not have a gun problem, we have a crippling culture problem." Very well put Mr. Herrera.
only problem is when the leading cause of death for children and teens is firearms, youve got a problem with both :/
And it's why I very much advocate for people to being allowed to legally own guns without hoolahoop levels of bullshit to go through. Sure it's fair if you need a basic certificate that shows you're competent for owning and firing such a weapon. Like how you need a driver's License before you're allowed to drive a car.
And since there's retardo-ricardo out there that thinks 'huh huh, funny boint gun and benis' or be gangsta and wave around a live-round chambered gun with the most limb-wristed grips ever.... yeah some competent people needs to be armed to help make sure those lunatics dun go 'time to kill some people' and be able to do so without anyone being able to defend themselves.

Many years ago, I attended a play set during the Second World War II. The last act called for the use of a prop gun (which I'm pretty sure was a Makarov), which besides being adapted to fire blanks, was using cartridges downcharged as much as possible (during the very first show, it FTE'd on the second to last round, which was fine, because the actor that was supposed to be fake bleeding was fake bleeding and it was supposed to be empty anyways).
In part, it was the relatively small space they had to work in, but even with the reduced charges, it was still astoundingly loud.

Its interesting to see the defender in the final clip actually aim at the attacker's head then move down. He had plenty of time to go for the dome but decided against the more likely to be lethal shot and go for center mass or lower. Dude was really level headed the entire time i bet
And fired once and immediately stopped firing the exact moment the threat, stopped being a threat.
I had the feeling that he went for his balls after being called a P...
@@SilverStarHeggisist especially taking into account that lethal shots would be cheaper in the lon run too
That action prolly got him in prison if the DA jumped on it ' if you took the time to shift your aim you weren't fearing for your life blablabla'
@@lonniecombs7431 "did not want you to jump me for murder, just for self defence" argument probably would work for that

The consequences of one's actions doesn't show up lubed.
From boyz in the hood turned into wannabe-coolz in the apartment
He went full Eric Cartman
Adding to the last clip - The guy trying to "fight" was staked outside the defender's home at like 4:30am.
The guy couldn't of had good intentions with that knife, seeing as he stalked him from a diff place and waiting for him so early in the morning.
The genius level he reached by attempting to fist fight a oncoming 9mm round. What level of smarts is needed to think you're so tough you can tank a bullet in a fist fight?
When I was at Gunnery camp, the Lt. placed an apple on top of a fire hydrant, loaded a Lee Enfield trainer rifle (Mk unknown, number unknown, but was a .303 converted to .22lr and we were using blanks for, well, rifle drill training purposes) with a blank, stood about 2 feet from the apple, pointed it at said apple, pulled the trigger, and the apple exploded.
Following that, he said something to the effect of "Cadet Apple is now dead! And that is why you must be very careful about where the firearm is pointed, especially those of you in the second and third ranks; or the cadet in front of you will turn out like Cadet Apple."
rip cadet apple, he was a good man
@@andreboily8645 he really took one for the team.
A 22 blank won't explode an apple from 2 feet away.
SMLE Mark III No. 2
@@ParadigmUnkn0wn you're right, exaggeration on my part. In reality, was well within a foot, to stimulate the range it would be when held at the ready in the rear ranks. In either case, best case scenario, misses everyone completely. Not as great a case scenario, it hits the white top on the cadet in front of you. Worst case scenario, you hit the poor guy's head. When you're within arms reach of the person in front of you, even a blank can be lethal.
In that self defense clip; the defender hesitated for a split second and went from aiming center mass to lower abdomen to avoid straight up killing the other guy.
Even in that moment he was in control. Great to see.
I thought the same thing!
It’s super impressive, considering he could’ve legally made sure his problem was sprung from this mortal coil and he still would’ve been fine.
He whacked him straight to the pelvic bowl; the way he dropped is characteristic of it.
Attacker still died
I'd say pelvic shot still looks alot better in court than a executioner style head shot🤷🏻
My Grandfather once told me "Don't throw rocks at guys with guns." Guess it works for throwing punches too.
I had an uncle that always told me don't take a knife to a gun fight
no, you just shoot them in the back before they can do anything about it... gun cant save you from that...
Don’t throw rocks when they’re throwing beans
17:18 this little moment managed to make me laugh simply because of the faint cut off scream and brandons reaction to it
I like how he actually brings the gun down to hit center mass, instead of just capping him in the head. Guy was smart
Plus it sounds like it was on a shopping street or near restaurants, so there's a risk of hitting bystanders. He knew his target and what was behind it.
@@TransistorBased I think more like he DIDNT know what was behind him and didnt wanna risk that
Yeah but now it'll become a legal problem, and the attacker can sue for damages, given the right judge, jury and prosecution, the defending shooter in that last part could get screwed over big time, when I was in high-school back in 2001 or 2002 our dare officers even said if given a choice between shooting to kill or to injure, every one of those officers said shoot to kill, it's less paperwork in the end and there is nobody to testify against you as an injured party, they did stress the fact to avoid unnecessary loss of life but if you feel the need to draw a firearm in fear of your own life then follow through to the end, or don't even think about carrying or pointing a firearm to begin with, the simple act of feeling threatened enough to have to pull a firearm is enough for most cops to understand the loss of life from an assailant, of course they need all the info for reports and stuff, but most generally it is an easy proof of self defense for most situations, it would be interesting to find out exactly how the rest of that evening played out, with cops and legal stuff...
@RodneySizemore-uf4yu I'm fully aware of this, but still an honorable choice
honestly i half think he was trying to lower the gun to try and not kill the man outright.
I appreciate the behavior of the last one especially. Keeping the weapon trained on the assailant even after he was down to prevent a secondary attack is a good practice until you KNOW the attacker is neutralized.
neutralized or neutered?
The Self Defense Shooting was my favorite. I loved his "Tough Guy" Screams.
16:00 i know i shouldn’t laugh but his switch in tone is just so funny
Blank rounds being "harmless" and leg shooting as a less-lethal way to incapacitate a person are two of the biggest gun myths that not enough people take into consideration.
Morons who take all of their gun info from movies. They are likely the same kind of fools who think supressors are real-life "silencers".
An armshot is more of a safe-area, because usually you can raise that limb up above your head to lower the overall bleeding.
In blanks the casing can break off and act like a projectile while it's not aerodynamic a piece of casing traveling near the speed of a bullet at point blank is deadly
"Just taze him in the gun, duh!"
Holy CRAP the context of that Darwin award is important. At first, seeing a guy challenging the gun owner to a fistfight had me thinking the guy with the gun wasn't responding with the appropriate amount of force.
However, the context being stalking (which statistically almost always ends in horrible violence to the victim), plus a restraining order, plus the guy having a knife in his waistband, allllll adds up to this guy just trying to trick this guy into putting the gun down so he could stab him.
he ended up sounding like an alley cat in heat. Fitting because he is probably about as smart
@@skippypeanutbutter9136 Was,past tense.
Honestly none of that even matters. He still would be justified. Any person trying to challenge me to a fight at 5:30 am in front my house is for sure a psycho and someone I do not want to fight.
@@johncena-hq1ti Yea it was the appropriate amount of force pretty much regardless of context, unless the context was it was all a joke or something. Now whether that's legally the appropriate amount of force might vary from state to state depending on stand your ground laws or whatever but on just a human rights level if someone is assaulting you and you try to back away and tell them to leave, AND they know you have a gun but won't cease hostilities, it's time to put a bullet in them.
@@johncena-hq1ti but your john cena you could just throw em in a nearby storm drain.
I like how the Darwin awarder lined up the headshot as a final deterrent, which almost worked, but chose not to outright kill the idiot in the end.
I completely agree, In fact when I saw the original video of this on Reddit years ago, I said essentially the same thing.
I meange didn't have a brain so it would just go straight through 😂
@@RealPlanet.1231 very true. Who tries to start a fight with a random person (with a gun) at 5am? Didn't sound drunk or under the influence, though it isn't always easy to tell.
The aggressor did die though.
Guns are made to kill so I guess his intent was moot anyways. If you're not willing to take away a life, don't use a gun.
I couldn’t help it. I started laughing when that dude started whining 😂
So did I, what happens when a bully is called out and is punched
Honestly it’s a toss up, on the one hand I liked that you were listening to us and featured yourself but honestly seeing a creepy stalker get what he deserved (his own Darwin Award) was just as appealing.
That blank to the head had me remember something from almost 25 years ago, when I did mandatory military service in Germany. During a training exercise, a few of us were manning a guard post and were pretty bored, when a non-com turned up, dripping fake blood everywhere. So after showing we learned our first-aid stuff, two of us then carried him to the medic tent, quite some distance away. A few of the others, even more bored, started playing around with the guns. None of us had any ammunition, but when one guy pointed a gun at another's face, just a foot away, suddenly there was a "pop" and that other guy got white as a sheet. Turns out the sarge had left his gun when pretending to be unconcious, and had some of the green things loaded that make some mediocre noise, but are pretty harmless otherwise. Just then the company commander was spotted being on his way to us, so the people involded hastily sprayed some deodorant and waved it around the room to hide the smell of burnt powder. Then we put all the guns neatly together, but were still chewed out as we had miscounted and had missed one of one of the guys that had gone with the sarge. Had the sergeant had loaded anything else, that could have ended pretty badly. And the guys taking the sarge away should have taken their and his guns with them. This was all the rules of gun safety at once, adding "guns are no toys", "don't play with other people's guns", and "keep your gun with you". I don't think anyone involved or watching this did any stupid shit with guns again.
Thanks for sharing an amazing story man! Hope all is going well.
One hell of a lesson was made that day, glad no one was injured but man I can imagine the look on that guys face
While doing my mandatory service at the Bundeswehr, I went in as an extra for some extended training exercise of the new soldiers fresh out of the basic training. Prior to the training days, we were all instructed several times to always handle blank fire rounds as if they were live rounds. Especially, not to toy around with the guns, not to aim directly at anyone at any given moment, not to restrain any comrades and absolutely no "execution" plays.
It was the second day of the extended training where they had to get one of the freshmen into the hospital for treatment of a blast trauma...
Later that day I heard that some idiots tied his hands behind his back and fired a blank from a G36 (.223 Remington) with the muzzle less then a meter next to his ear. As far as I know he did not suffer any lasting injuries at least.
Luckily that was the only incident in this training. On the good side, I had the opportunity to blank-fire a G3 way above the heads of the new recruits to simulate an attack. 7.62x51 is a lot beefier compared to the sound of the G36 we were used to.
@@Shadow_Lunatale If I remember correctly (the time is a bit of a haze, due to sleep deprivation and the time that has passed since then), that incident was at the end of basic training (2 of the 10 total months we had to serve back then) We had the G3 then. The G36 was being rolled out, but as supply and logistics, we still had the old ones. Of course, we had been told how (not) to handle guns, but 18 to 20 year old boys bored out of their minds tend to forget things. And then, as T7, we didn't have much experience with the guns, just had target practice a few times, and had just been parked at the guard post to not get in the way. So nobody expected any ammunition of any kind to be around. So this turned out to be a great lesson about any gun potentially being loaded. If it had been a real blank instead of those green ones, I think the guy with his face in front of the muzzle would have gotten some burns or worse and everyone in the room would have had their ears ringing. And it would probably have been heard outside. That's not to say those training dummies were totally harmless. I think I have slightly damaged my hearing when I was still fumbling with my protection while the rest of the squad was firing all at once.
And to explain the "T7" I mentioned earlier, for anyone not familiar with the German mustering system (back then): Before you were drawn for service, you were examined medically. Then you werer either assigned T1, T2, or T3 as being (mostly) fit for service, or T5 for being unfit and exempted from service. At least in my time, therer was also T7, which meant you were practically unfit, but not so much as to be exempt and still be usable in some support position. I think what did it for me was my bee allergy, but as the group had mixed problems, they had to find the least common denominator. Training was *very* basic, you'd only get to shoot your gun a few times, had bivouac indoors, would not get worked to exhaustion but on the other hand, missed the fun stuff, too, like shooting machine guns or throwing grenades. And your assignment later would be the most boring one possible (in my case: picking small items from storage or sorting and putting things away, in between alot of waiting for transport to deliver or pick up stuff).
Brandon's been spoiling us with gun fails lately
I'd say it's idiots that's spoiling us with gun fails😂
AK daddy never disappoints
Stupid people do seem to be getting more common... Or rather have better access to cameras and internet.
It’s sad that there’s so much to show
Also he’s said culture problem but it’s more of a stupid problem
Keep em coming. There is no shortage of idiots these day's so something tells me content won't be hard to find. 🤣
“he end up finishing the mag, of course he's not a quiter”😂😂
It warms my heart to see a violent idiot get dropped by a defensive shooter who is 100% in the right. I don't live in the states, there are situations where ive been attacked by multiple people and one situation where i was stabbed and a gun would of saved me from serious harm (thankfully not death, but i could of died, a friend of mine was killed recently by being hit over the head and falling asleep)
So to see a normal innocent civillian defend himself from a violent idiot is a nice thing to see. Sadly we don't have that here.
I used to live in a rough neighboorhood too, so I went medieval and started wearing a home-made shirt of butted-ring chainmail under my hoddies, or in my coats. it actually saved me some pain once, as the leather of the coat plus the resistance from the rings stopped an incoming blade to the guts. I had one heck of a bruise and a slight knick, but apart from that I was pretty much unharmed. The guy who stabbed me, however, was high as fuck at the time and turned himself in shortly after because he was sure he'd killed me!!!
@@krakenpots5693 The jacket did more than the rings. Butted maille is for fancy cosplay. That's not armor. Real maille was/is secured via iron rivets. Glad lady luck saw you through and you had multiple layers of protection.
@@thisdude9363 Thanks for your answer!
I like to think that the butted mail did help: the area the blade came in was much larger on the outside of the jacket than on the inside, and the rings were hardly forced apart.
Maybe I was simply lucky. Maybe the blow wasn't as powerfull as I perceived it. (Edit: the mail was also a six-in-one pattern maybe this also helped.)
There are historical examples of butted mail existing (because if you're poor and can't afford the time and labor an armourer has to put into rivetting your armour together, then you go for the next best thing!), but of course, as you pointed out, it doesn't hold a candle to rivetted mail.
Nowadays butted mail is too often used for fancy cosplay, I agree, but as a reenactor, I can assure you that butted mail has it's place in certain time periods, and on certain "characters".
In any case, thanks for your reply! Have a good one!

I do kinda feel bad for the guy. Getting shot is just a bad time no matter who you are. And it sounds like this guy had some real problems, so it’s sad that it ended like this rather than him getting the help he needed to become a better person.
That said, I still laughed at his squealing.

gun safety rules:
1) do not hold a loaded gun to your head, even if it was handed to you by a complete stranger
2) do not use ak-47 drunk and one-handed when children are standing around
3) do not put loaded weapons in your pants
4) do not walk naked and aggressively towards people who have a gun pointed at your head
Of course, all this only applies if you don't want to die

Last clip. The gun carrying guy helped his case a lot by clearly aiming away from the other guy's head before firing
Yeah I noticed it looks like he chose to shoot the guy in the torso instead. Maybe hoping he would not kill him.
@@Vulkanprimarch Or, most likely, he knows that aiming at center mass is more likely to hit the target.
@@TheTundraTerror I'm just going off all his choices and body language. He looked like he was doing the most to not shoot him. And maybe he also didn't want to kill him. But maybe I am wrong and he aimed center mass for better chance of hit and follow up shots.
you would think so but that's not true. there is only one reason so use deadly force and that is to kill. you can actually be sued for attempting to shoot to wound. i learned about several cases while getting my CJ degree.
@@T0tenkampf Yeah but we don't know this guy's level of experience or familiarity with the law. Also the human instinct not to harm others is a well documented effect even on trained soldiers. But what you are saying could be right and I could be wrong.
Brandon is like the cool dad you had before the divorce with all the awesome toys and badass personality your mom doesn’t want you to be around cause he’s probably a bad influence even though he clearly cares about having fun and being safe while doing it… to a degree.
He’s like my 6th grade science teacher that let us build rockets and stuff M-80s in them, make methane filled blimps, and thermite. Needless to say, science at school was fun in the 1970s. And none of ever got hurt, but we learned to blow up stuff real good!

"how close can I get to an explosion while wearing flip flops" FTFY
I remember a time on deployment, we had some guys in the village near by celebrating with their AKs, we didn't know at the time and when our radar picked up the rounds we thought it was mortar fire and we almost LEVELED them with 120 mortars and 155 Arty.
Ah, 10 million dollars worth of freedom.
Gamers
"We celebrated... But they celebrated harder!"
And this reminds me of the (probably not true) story of some cops out and about with the radar gun when a fighter jet was flying by pretty low, and they thought it would be funny if they clocked the jet. It caused the radar gun to malfunction so they had to get it looked at. When they wrote to the nearby air force base and complained about their radar gun being out of commission, they got a reply along the lines: "Be happy our pilot was quick to override counter measures before the jet could automatically fire a HARM missle at the radar."
@@KaeYoss I haven't heard that story yet
I might be a psychopath, because watching the “tough guy” go down and scream in pain was cathartic and I liked it. And then you told us the backstory.
He did tell the other guy to, "Do it" ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Agreed.
Because it was fucking hilarious, the scream was somewhere between that of a wet cat and a 4 year old who fell over.
It was such hilarious, I watched this scene at least 10 times, can't stop laughing, I even showed it to my father

Thanks for uploading :D
that last clip is a prime example of how firearms are a great tool for self-defense. if someone really thinks that the dude with a gun should rot in prison, you really need to take a step back and think about thr situation and why he did what he did.
the guy with the gun showed a lot of restraint, he could have gone for the head or shot sooner
Especially if the state in question has a zero bail policy.
Why let criminals go more easily if the law abiding citizen has to stay behind bars because they are new to the system & have no file that merely needs to be updated to reflect any new scars or tattoos & address changes?
Leftists apply this logic to pretty much everyone in prison except for people who just wanted to defend themselves.
The last clip is THE example on how to use a gun on absolutely every aspect
And it also helps folks laugh that like seeing idiots get what they deserve
He was given many outs but he decided to pick the final one.
Except in the hellholes of liberal states. In Hawaii, where I lived for 5 years, the shooter would absolutely have been charged. He could have retreated and could have tried at least tried to get away by outrunning the idiot, which under Hawaii law says he is defending himself! Of course here in any sane state that was about perfect!
@@andycole5957 if attacker really had a knife. it's better to be charged and not unalived
"We do not have a gun problem in this country we have a crippling culture problem." No truer words have ever been spoken.
Pillsbury Dough Boy at the end finally got what he needed. A 115 grain lesson on how to act right.
The last clip always makes me smile. From tough guy to screaming child.
The average child would know enough to run away.
The last clip is my favorite because of two things
1: how immediately the attacker folded and started to cry “OW”
2: the amazing trigger discipline, he has the gun out but aimed down at the ground, giving off the warning that I will shoot you if you don’t back up.
gave him 2 cahnces to stop to. Raised the gun pointed at his neck or face. A clear threat of "I AM READY YOU BLAST YOU, LAST WARNING"
But when he took that last step he lowered it then fired when it was clear he would not back down. Im pretty sure he lowered it so it wasnt a 100% killshot, Nobody want to kill someone regardless of the situation even when justified.
yeah i laugh about it.
@@BlueBD are there any details of what happened afterwards? Like, did they call (or have some one call) for paramedics?

@@BlueBD i remember a quote somewhere, I can’t remember though if my dad said it to me or if it was a movie/tv quote.
“The minute you pull out a gun and aim it at someone, it means you plan to kill them.”
@@Armin2012 I dont know myself but i saw somewhere on here that said the dude did die not that long afterwards. I assume he bleed out before paramedics arrived.
That last case is probably also a good example for how to handle that situation after the aggressor was incapacitated. It looked like the defender was fingering for his phone afterwards to call for help - police and ambulance. Mind you that, if you have a Knive and attack someone with a gun and are shot down, you will likely not get first aid before you are unconscious. It is too risky, especially if the person with the gun is the only person that could aid. Also do not stalk people!

So I had a homeless guy pull a knife on me. I pulled my gun, he then tried goading me into putting the gun away to 'fight like a man'.

I'm glad my boy defended himself well. Stalking is no joke and homie looked prepared. Probably aimed down to be considerate of the surrounding people. He was prepared.
Gotta add, if Mr. Owie was in Shooter's neighborhood, not vice versa, the stalking/stand your ground law would hold up, as well as self defence. And as its on camera, shows he WAS trying to back away, and Owie wasn't having it. If he was armed, even if not holding it, it was 100% justified. If I'd been on a jury, I'd have acquitted him.
my man was John wick
My immediate thought is that he decided he didn't want to go for a direct kill shot and decided to shoot in the chest on the off chance that it wouldn't absolutely kill him rather than a headshot that would be more likely to kill. But maybe he was trying not to shoot into the houses around if it was at 5:00 in the morning. I can't imagine that there'd be too many people just randomly walking the street.
I got the impression that he w
Didn't want to shoot the attacker in the face and immediately kill him, I think he was trying to end it while also trying not to kill the man.
The only real pucker factor was, he left the guy get WAY too close to him.
Watch training videos that show the dangers of letting assailants get closer than 20 feet.
