Amazing... guy's testing out a bullet-proof vest...and misses the vest. Surely a future candidate for the Darwin Awards.... http://www.break.com/index/bulletproof-vest-test-goes-wrong.html?mrr=we Mike in Kuwait
Later that evening.... To the local ER and the operating room with the cardiothorasic surgeon. There's an old saying amongst CV surgeons: "people who get shot on purpose with 9mm pistols never have insurance". Not really. I made that up. But you can be dang sure that ANYONE who has his penis cut off and requires 9 hours of reattachment surgery has no insurance.
What I meant was, it missed the BULLET-PROOF plates in the vest and hit the kevlar.... which was who knows how old, and who knows whether or not it was Level III or not, or where it came from... This was just beyond stupid... it was idiotic... Mike in Kuwait
Here is a really good friend of mine. he was an investigative reporter. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8_o1PCIPa0&feature=channel_page
"Damm it Uncle Dad i was supposed to go out on a date with our sister tonight! Now i gots a bullet hole in my chest."
I don't know about this, only way he would have reacted like that after seeing it went through was fake or they could see the bullet just barely lodged. If you look down and there is a hole going into your heart you don't "hang ten" and smoke a cig.
Not to mention that guy looked all of about 130 pounds. I'm thinking he would have been a little more gutted from the impact.
Aaahh .. and it looks like they even did this in an office given the notices on the back wall ... so much for hand gun safety by the local police.
...but that same person put on a bulletproof vest and let someone shoot him. Never tempt fate; she has a sadistic side to her.
Yes, the doctor said that the bullet went about an inch inside his chest. To me it wasn't clear if it actually penetrated the kevlar or just pushed it into his chest without penatrating the kevlar. When I was younger I was shot in the head with a high power pellet gun. It put a hole in my head but didn't penetrate the hat I was wearing.
