43 feet.

Anyone willing to set off something with far more explosive in it than a hand grenade that close up is really, really stupid at best. Toss in the shrapnel factor of the lawnmower and it gets even worse.

Other than that, Tannerite and its competitors are loads of fun and cheaper than dynamite usually is by the time you comply with all the regulations. Safer too.

Tannerite brought down Building 7, and caused it to fall at free fall speed.

I don’t get it.

Yeah, target practice

But WTF, while satisfying as you improve your skills, It’s not a video game.

Foolish spending money for explosives, for your own juvenile entertainment. Could spend it for more ammo, range time, etc.

Too bad he didn’t get it in the crotch (can’t breed) or the forehead.

Wow. What a retard. 43 feet away with several pounds of tannerite. Stupid people like this are exactly what leftist politicians are looking for to crack down on what we are allowed to own. This guy is giving them another new talking point. Thanks, guy.

That was very funny and very accurate … “those” people really think like that. Appreciate you posting it. As I watched it, I thought of ……. Bea Lever. hahaha

I think there’s a simpler reason Cadbury Easter Creme eggs still exist. Parents! They figure if my mom and dad made me eat this SHIT, then goddammit I’m forcing my kids to eat it also!

Very good video, Thinker, and Bea came to mind immediately to me also, given Brussels… I gotta hand it to him…He can pick out a drill photo with the best of them… :o)

Guns don’t kill lawnmowers. Stupid people kill lawnmowers (and nearly themselves!).

Were his buddies that were behind him get injured?

Stuck – damn, the gene pool is getting severely depleted. Some of the dumbest fuckers I have ever seen in that video. People get killed doing that shit. Guess these were the lucky ones.

Why do women lean back when shooting a rifle/shotgun? They get their asses knocked down every time they do that. And who on earth lets a newbie shoot a damn semi-auto? Maybe if it has just one bullet in it, but a full clip?

@LLPOH
The women lean back like that because the length of pull of the rifle is too large for them. A shorter stock would accommodate their size better and allow for a proper stance.
Crappy instruction as well. I swear a lot of these gals are set-up intentionally by their husbands/boyfriends.

Standby for that to be banned because of stupid fuckers. I say leave it the fuck alone and let Darwin sort it out. This is why there are so many dumb bastards because liberal statists ban everything or put goddamned signs on everything. Take down all the signs and un-ban it all. Liberal statist population control!!

I’m thinking this month’s Darwin Award goes to this guy, but I’m sure there’s some cretin out there somewhere who will think of something even dumber.

SHOOTING something loaded with EXPLOSIVES?? I wouldn’t be within a half mile of something like that, let alone shoot at it. I’m surprised he didn’t blow himself up loading the explosives on the lawn mower.

Thanks Stuck, as a firearm enthusiast it was a painful 10 min, damn.

I feel bad for this young man. Yes, he made a very bad decision (to understate it), but he’s lost part of his leg. That this could’ve and would’ve been perfectly avoided through more prudence will haunt him for the rest of his life.

As for the video, that somebody would look down the barrel of a loaded shotgun is startling. I’m glad that man didn’t get his head blown off. As for the various examples of extremely poor stance/position, it’s all fun and games until a rookie who is set up by a prankster boyfriend/friend gets permanently wounded/injured.

Like the police officer in the video, I am an ardent and aggressive supporter of the Second Amendment – and it’s precisely why those of us who own firearms/have experience with them shouldn’t use them as toys to tease those who haven’t got our experience/knowledge.

Tannerite is extremely popular up here on the west coast. There’s a million places to shoot in the mountains. I’ve used it – it’s safe – as long as you follow the instructions. Blowing shit up with it is a recipe for disaster. Do so and stand too close and reap the whirlwind. Why the fuck can’t people just follow the instructions – and use some common sense??? Baffled and bewildered….

I bought a bunch of tannerite, but quickly found out it’s banned at every single gun range around here. The only place you can use it is on private land. Maybe BLM if they don’t catch you.
I just thought it would be fun for my son to have targets go *bang*. I don’t plan to blow up dead cars or anything like that.
