OT- Bizarre Take on "You'll Put Your Eye Out" Red Ryder
...WARNING- NOT "A CHRISTMAS STORY" footage:

EDIT:
Some of you have found this video to be without humor. However, I find it to be a very good example of modern special effects, and not intended to be taken seriously.

Wow BB guns did not used to be that powerful when I was a kid.
Bad Video though, probably should be yanked off of youtube.
Anti Gunners got enough ammo against us lets not give them any more.

Very unexpected!

It is interesting for the at home technical possibilities but I find the thing disturbing, not funny. Bizzare is an appropriate description. It is, of course, silly that a BB gun would do that but there is certainly somebody who will believe it is true.

I thought it was funny, but mindless. Anybody who is NOT a gun person and believes it to be true is an idiot.

Funny(?) story.
A guy at the FD was telling me about an incident in Farson WY (IIRC) where he had been "stinging" annoying Pronghorns with his BB gun to make them run off.
Unfortunately he got in a lucky shot. Punctured one buck's jugular and the durn thing decided to die in the middle of the road - so he couldn't SSS.
The Fishy Game Cop was duly impressed at the bad luck of it all, but still hit him with a $350 fine...

That was just plain stupid. I can see some kid doing that to show you can't blow you head off and punch a bb through his temple. Moronic to say the least.

Re: OT- Bizarre Take on "You'll Put Your Eye Out" Red Ryder
No, not funny.
Re: OT- Bizarre Take on "You'll Put Your Eye Out" Red Ryder
It ain't even good special effects! Just how in HELL can a BB VAPORIZE a human head, when even a .45 caliber bullet can't? This is just another example of, "Only in Hollywood could this happen", figuratively speaking, of course, as this obviously wasn't done in Hollywood. And no, I didn't think it was funny either. jd45
Re: OT- Bizarre Take on "You'll Put Your Eye Out" Red Ryder
The only part that bothers me is some kid may see that and stick his BB gun to his head as a joke.

Excellent example of the desensitization of our youth to real violence.

Re: OT- Bizarre Take on "You'll Put Your Eye Out" Red Ryder
That was just ridiculous. The first thing we teach a child is not to point the gun at anything they don't wish to destroy. Now we're showing them it's OK to put the gun to their own head and pull the trigger? What exactly was funny about that?
