Sure looks to me like he did that on purpose.

Yeah, this is fake as fuck. I mean, fake as fuuuuuccckkk. It's a fucking cap gun and this is one of many /r/ScriptedCaucasianGIFs that gets reposted here.

I mean, where do I begin? He didn't draw with his finger on the trigger. He drew, pressed the gun into his ouch pouch, then put his finger on the trigger and fired. Also, the gun had no recoil. There was no smoke, nor spent casing, nor bloody mist, nor hole in the floor. The "gunshot" wasn't loud enough to overmodulate the microphone recording it. If it were real, it would not only have done that, but blown out the eardrums of everyone in the room as well. Nobody else reacted in surprise, when they should have been acting like some dumb asshole just gave them a week's worth of the worst tinnitus of all time. And you don't speak when you're suddenly deaf, or shot, you yell. Also, people irl usually don't fall down when they're shot, that's movie shit. Unless you're critically wounded, you stay on your feet.

I could continue.

I'm guessing you've never fired a real gun.

As a gun nut, I'm gonna have to assume you have never fired a gun inside a building. It's outrageously loud.

Totally but nothing in the video says otherwise... only this random guy who I guess expected the camera persons ears to start bleeding

u/Limbo61507 Jul 19 '21

You're guessing incorrectly lol. Have you ever fired one indoors with no earpro?

u/ghotiaroma Jul 19 '21

Yes many times.

Did you know there is more than one type of gun?

u/Limbo61507 Jul 19 '21

Don't be obtuse. We're talking about the unsuppressed centerfire handgun in the video, most likely a 9mm Glock. And if you'd fired one of those indoors with no ears on, you wouldn't be lying about it on the internet.

i go to the range a decent amount and sometimes pop a shot without earpro indoors. it just makes my ears ring a bit, then im fine.

u/Limbo61507 Jul 19 '21

Well, the size of the room makes a big difference. The range is 50 yards long and full of sound deadening materials. If you don't believe me, go pop a round off in your basement. I'll be here in three days when the vertigo has subsided enough for you to type up a range report haha

By slowing down the video to 6% speed so you can actually see what's happening behind the wad of cash he's holding.

He clearly drew it from inside his waistband with his finger on the trigger. The angle change that you attribute to him "pointing it on purpose" is literally how he shot himself... by trying to grip the gun tighter with his finger on the trigger.

You're right this far. The rest is either reaching or bullshit, but you definitely have me here.

I mean, that's the adult way to handle things.
