I've been a firearms instructor since 1990 and I've seen some stupidity that could not be explained, but some of these range fails made my eyeball twitch.
In basic training, my first sergeant had a trainee turn around and pointed his LOADED M-16 at him. He kicked the guy in the head (private was standing in the fox hole on the qualification range). The private got an Article 15, and the first sergeant got a field grade Article 15 and got busted down from E-8 First Sergeant to E-7 Sergeant, First Class. He remained our acting First Sergeant and was addressed as such even lacking the rank.
I was in USAF Basic in 1971. During our second (and last!) day on the range, we were firing from prone. One recruit had a jam and instead of raising his hand and waiting for assistance from the RO as instructed he rolled to his left AND POINTED HIS M-16 AT THE RO who was standing behind and to his right. The RO snatched the muzzle, jerked it downrange and clocked the recruit, then took the rifle. After the recruit woke up he was led away and we never saw him again, no news. Nothing happened to the RO.
@@markfergerson2145 good ole days 🤣🔥 i was born in early 80s and I see stuff now, im like... Maybe the guys now days should just goto their grandpa / or dads, and get their routine of boot camp. Can learn their ways since it seemed more structured. Good habits etc. It seemed way tougher back then. No fem boys identifying as a lesbian black woman whos a tree and THEY want to wear a wig backwards, when they're actually a skinny white guy thats afraid of bolt action receivers... 🤣
@@daviedood2503 No argument. I mean, the Air Force gets a lot of crap about not really being soldiers etc. but back in the day we were not treated with kid gloves in any way. From what I hear of even Marines these days the DIs can’t touch recruits, have to be careful what language they use, in other words they are treated far more gently than we were back then. And don’t get me started on the rainbow/alphabet/CRT crap. We don’t need “sensitive” stunning and brave soldiers, we need harasses who can perpetrate extreme violence at need, while still being compassionate at need.

They don't do this crap in Habibi Ackmed, fn Muhamid land over there.. it's like it doesn't exist at all. If it does, NO ONE knows about it. Children aren't out there seeing blue and pink hair weirdos, in underwear walking in the street, twerk'n or whatever it's called. They'd end up meeting 7.62 30rd mag real fast over there .. every race and nationality pretty much frowns upon all that mess. That's GOTTA say something about what they're doing. Idk how they think it's "correct" or the right thing to do.
When I was in the USMC in the late '70s, we had to crawl through the mud, under barbed wire, with live fire overhead. Military training, at least back then, was never what I would call "safe". I still have hearing damage 45 years later from the military.
I was in USAF Basic in 71 and we did the same thing except it was on gravel. Honestly I would have preferred mud because the gravel tore up my combats. My TI was not pleased. I know it was live fire because I saw the little pops of dirt from the berm across from the gun emplacement. I have no idea why we were doing it live unless it was because it was during the Cold War, and by that point in training I knew better than to ask. But you and I were in honest to god for real organized military training, and nobody was shooting at the dirt between us while we were doing our thing. The bozo in the video is rolling the dice, and eventually he’s gonna shoot somebody firing from the hip like that.
We did the same live fire exercise in the Army in 1986 but I'm pretty sure the fire was a lot higher than it felt. You could feel the heat from the tracers, but my guess is that they were 20 to 30 feet over our head at least.
12:25 Explosive guy here (US Army). Don't put explosives in anything metal unless you're either half a mile away or you're in *hard cover* meaning you are behind something that can take a direct hit from high velocity metal and you will be completely safe.
I am an old man now almost 70. I have been shooting form the age of 5. my father was a nut about range safety. you have checked all the boxes for range safety and I so love the content that you do. never have disagreed with any content you have poster keep up the good work. saving folks from themselves.
During Marine Corps boot camp back in the 1940's you did the barbed wire crawl. While doing the crawl the machine gunners fired their machine guns directly, I mean INCHES, over the trainees heads. The Marine Corps did this to familiarize the American soldier with the sound of bullets flying right over their heads and to get them over their immediate fear of it. It wouldn't surprise me if Rob Ski let these men know before hand that he was going to do this to acclimate them to the experience so they wouldn't get their heads blown off in a real CQB.
The five day week is Monday, Tuesday, and WTF. The guy in the red shoes has my vote for city boy with man toy award. The last example, bodyguard training, is very similar, with tracing thoughts and planning for the worst.
@@texas66 Around here we look down the barrel of several RPG's at once (huge log trucks) while driving 55mph on a 2 way road. And there's several narrow bridges with no shoulder on that road, including one bridge that's over 1/4 miles long and it's common to have 2+ log trucks on it at once going 55+.
1:22 tha happened to my brother once. Shootin pistols at a dirt range with my dad and he thought he ran out of ammo so he did the "dirt shot" test. Apuff of dirt 1 meter in front of him gave my father all the fuel to screa at him a lot lmao
3:44 the better and bigger question is who are the 4 people that thumbs up that bad magdump? The Foo even went Time Crisis 2 on us and switched to his middle finger for faster trigger pulls.
Alex was right, she just paused it a couple of seconds to late. The young fellow had his finger in the trigger guard as he first starting placing the can in that stupid contraption.
Regardless wouldn't the safest way to do this to be to load the can then chamber the blank round? This is like capping a caplock before loading it creates an unneeded risk.
I have been to the Middle East. The stuff I have seen over there, just as a regular person is scary. Even in Israel, it is a bit scary. The "Police" wear military camo and have Ouzi`s. I know they are just 9mm-but still it took a bit of time to get used to it. Jordan is where it can get very scary. In some countries I was not always handed back my "Papers" They break out the machine guns for weddings. That is their idea of fun.
Great video I was always taught the minute you don’t respect the weapon is when you’re going to get hurt. Never point a weapon at anything or anyone you don’t intend to shoot.
You ever seen that one where the guy was shooting tannerite with an AR, and the tannerite... was in a riding lawn mower. Let's just say, he lost his leg. You can find it and it's definitely good to learn from it. Don't do that sort of thing. Try to understand physics, if the microwave was pointed sideway, he wouldn't have been hit by the door
13:07 I’m sooo glad that Eli was able to survive that crazy RPG incident and was able to live to tell the story!! He honestly got so incredibly lucky, all things considered!! Even watching that video and knowing that he was actually okay.. I still immediately thought the worst, when I first watched it!! Thought to myself that there was absolutely no possibility that he survived that, even though I was already well aware of the fact that he did in fact survive, long before I ever saw the video!.. Someone was absolutely watching over that man during that situation!! He probably should’ve gone right to the gas station and bought a lottery ticket! Because you certainly don’t get any more lucky than he did on that particular day!! He seems like such a great dude and I’m really glad that he wasn’t terribly injured from that, or worse even!.. Glad he’s able to continue dropping content and making us all laugh together!!! 🙏🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🙏🏼
The vengeful microwave reminded me that there has to be enough videos of people doing Darwin Award worthy acts with Tannerite and firearms for an episode of Gun Fails.
Great video, by that I mean your commentary. I get the chills seeing some of these because most of these people probably do not realize they could hurt or unalive themselves or someone around them! I would say use common sense but y’all know common sense is not very common!
"That is the AK-47, the preferred weapon of our enemies. It makes a distinctive sound when fired at you. Remember it. " -Gunny Highway after firing live rounds from an AK at his troops. (Clint Eastwood's charecter in the 1987 film Heartbreak Ridge.)

4:06 don't need irons if all you do is spray and pray, so when they go against someone that knows what they're doing, it's called unaliving yourself by proxy
My favorite part of these videos is that you roast yourself and don't edit out the parts where you mess up, makes the videos a million times better to me
What you may not have realized, is the guy recording himself close up mag dumping with no iron sights, for some reason also switched to using his middle finger to pull the trigger.
I’m pretty sure the Russian ak operator union guy was using blanks… Blanks could kick dirt up like that. He seems pretty intelligent on this subject, Judging by his channel.
@@RealRabbit1124 you don't need to see the bullet come out. You can clearly see on the impact, that those are live rounds. Blanks are not able to make such an huge impact on the ground especially not with those disances.
In my day….the army did live fire training pretty much like the video of the guy shooting between the dudes. This was done to prepare you for rounds coming your way. Oh, we didn’t have ear or eye protection in those days either.
@@travisweldmaster7815 actually no, it was during peacetime in the early 80s at ft Dix. Remember the Iran hostage thing? My drill sergeant believed we were all going to Iran to kick butt and wanted us ready for the crazies there. He was a Vietnam vet.
@@justplinkin4809 the fun part is, that this trainings method doesn't prepare for anything. It's just a high risk to hurt or even kill the own people during training.
8:10 it's a very crude and rough way of getting FEAR out of their system. My dad was a Sargent in the US Army, back in the 60s. When he was 18 and in boot camp, towards the middle of the phase of training, they had barbed wire that you crawled under and live rounds would be flying over your head. Not sounds over speakers. The movie JAR HEAD i believe or it could be another movie name its with Jake Gylanhal. (Spelling) Is a good example of it happening. They immediately told everyone to stop crawling in the mud and to stay down. My dad had his face in the mud, then turned his head left and looked back behind him. A guy was flat down not moving. He found out it was his best friend he made during boot camp. He picked his head up when they said not to and it got him. There was only one other time many years before that it happened in that camp. After that incident, they started using blanks then moved to just sounds over speakers to simulate a war. My dad was still kinda sad about it 30+ years later when he was telling me. Anyways, off topic, but yeah, its a crude way of getting fear out of u, so if those things actually happen during a fire fight, u don't feeeze up or get scared, is the theory behind it all.
In the military we had rifles set up on the course with blanks and the vented barrel plugs! They weee fully automated so the instructor could fire them randomly when you crawled by on the low crawl courses! If you forgot to put your ear plugs in that day it really sucked
Also, Random PSA, use your Non Dominant hand multiple times a day. Even writing your own name a dozen times a day, can reduce the risk of a stroke by as much as 50%.
I worked for a company called EODT which had an instructor get fired for shooting on the ground next to students. This video can still be found. I believe it was filmed in kandahar
Great vid Alex! Sadly there are a lot of instructors out there today who "THINK" they're being innovative with new drills to induce stress on their students, "Stress Inoculation". We did this in the military by either having them run before firing or using blanks. Most of these instructors are cutting major safety corners. The guys at the end, grappling and working with guns should be using dummy guns, "Red Guns" or "Blue Guns" for that kind of...well...stupidity. They're trying to play "John Wick" which looks cool on screen but has no basis in reality.
Couple of things in this video that really stand out.... the number of contestants playing stupid gun games, apparently hoping to be awarded stupid prizes, and the sheer inventiveness and raw effort that went into their auditions for the Darwin Awards. Amazing, and cringe at the same time.
Evening Alex, to touch on the clip on the shooting range that ended to soon. My father was a DI for 2 years at camp Pendleton USMC after he came back from Vietnam, he said he used to wear his smokey the bear hat tilted forward, one day they were out on the range and a recruit jammed his weapon my dad walked up to him as he rolled over and discharged the round right thru the front of his smokey. He said it took 5 other DI's to pull him off this kid....
The sad part about the Marine in the beginning is that there is almost always one on the range that fails to put it back on safe when done firing, not sure if he lost count on that portion or if he was supposed to do a condition 1 reload next. And not sure what having someone shoot the ground next to you is supposed to accomplish for training, ignore the threat shooting at you right behind you? Probably not even able to learn the sounds rounds make based on proximity.
Lol. The dude with no iron sights that was too busy watching the camera instead of the target; he wasn't at the range. He was at a park in Chicago shooting at random apartments.
"Booger hook off of the bang switch" is what I think you were thinking of. Not trying to be "that guy" correcting sh!t. I love the videos although I find most of them more terrifying than amusing.
I've been a firearms instructor since 1990 and I've seen some stupidity that could not be explained, but some of these range fails made my eyeball twitch.
Dude exactly i felt my blood pressure spiking watching some of these too. I'm a U.S. Army 11B Infantryman Vet and i kept thinking of Chris Kyle.

Blanks could kick dirt up like that.
He seems pretty intelligent on this subject, Judging by his channel.
They're not kicking dirt up like that, those were live rounds. Cope for him all you want but those were 100% live rounds
@@Wyomingchief oh so you were able to see the bullet come out of the gun? And yes blanks can do that.
@@RealRabbit1124 you don't need to see the bullet come out. You can clearly see on the impact, that those are live rounds. Blanks are not able to make such an huge impact on the ground especially not with those disances.
It was cool to hear 30 % of you is from scandinavia ,and i love to see you handle the desert eagle ;-) love from Norway 🙂
The practice of loading "only one round in the magazine" (or revolver cylinder) for a new shooter can't be stressed enough.
The "close to the arm" guy was Rob who does a channel on military rifles, usually at long range, and he runs the "AK operators' union"
I love to see Tyreese and Tyrone featured so heavily. Those two rapscallions. Luckily there is only two of them.
In my day….the army did live fire training pretty much like the video of the guy shooting between the dudes. This was done to prepare you for rounds coming your way. Oh, we didn’t have ear or eye protection in those days either.
Damn pops WW1??
@@travisweldmaster7815 actually no, it was during peacetime in the early 80s at ft Dix. Remember the Iran hostage thing? My drill sergeant believed we were all going to Iran to kick butt and wanted us ready for the crazies there. He was a Vietnam vet.
@@justplinkin4809 the fun part is, that this trainings method doesn't prepare for anything. It's just a high risk to hurt or even kill the own people during training.
@@xDlol24 it does train you to what it’s like to have bullets bouncing around you and possibly what is like to get shot.
8:10 it's a very crude and rough way of getting FEAR out of their system. My dad was a Sargent in the US Army, back in the 60s. When he was 18 and in boot camp, towards the middle of the phase of training, they had barbed wire that you crawled under and live rounds would be flying over your head. Not sounds over speakers. The movie JAR HEAD i believe or it could be another movie name its with Jake Gylanhal. (Spelling) Is a good example of it happening. They immediately told everyone to stop crawling in the mud and to stay down.
My dad had his face in the mud, then turned his head left and looked back behind him. A guy was flat down not moving. He found out it was his best friend he made during boot camp. He picked his head up when they said not to and it got him. There was only one other time many years before that it happened in that camp. After that incident, they started using blanks then moved to just sounds over speakers to simulate a war. My dad was still kinda sad about it 30+ years later when he was telling me.
Anyways, off topic, but yeah, its a crude way of getting fear out of u, so if those things actually happen during a fire fight, u don't feeeze up or get scared, is the theory behind it all.
I'm new here. I like your content so far.
Thanks for watching!!
@@Alex_zedra tnank you!
4:00 dudes scared of his own gun. And LOVES himself
In the military we had rifles set up on the course with blanks and the vented barrel plugs! They weee fully automated so the instructor could fire them randomly when you crawled by on the low crawl courses! If you forgot to put your ear plugs in that day it really sucked
Also, Random PSA, use your Non Dominant hand multiple times a day. Even writing your own name a dozen times a day, can reduce the risk of a stroke by as much as 50%.
Thanks for the video 👍🏻
Regarding the Mantis read-ad, have say, I love the Mantis system I have for my AR-15’s
I worked for a company called EODT which had an instructor get fired for shooting on the ground next to students. This video can still be found. I believe it was filmed in kandahar
These videos make me rethink the whole "everyone should be able to own guns" thing.
Great vid Alex! Sadly there are a lot of instructors out there today who "THINK" they're being innovative with new drills to induce stress on their students, "Stress Inoculation". We did this in the military by either having them run before firing or using blanks. Most of these instructors are cutting major safety corners. The guys at the end, grappling and working with guns should be using dummy guns, "Red Guns" or "Blue Guns" for that kind of...well...stupidity. They're trying to play "John Wick" which looks cool on screen but has no basis in reality.
Couple of things in this video that really stand out.... the number of contestants playing stupid gun games, apparently hoping to be awarded stupid prizes, and the sheer inventiveness and raw effort that went into their auditions for the Darwin Awards. Amazing, and cringe at the same time.
Evening Alex, to touch on the clip on the shooting range that ended to soon. My father was a DI for 2 years at camp Pendleton USMC after he came back from Vietnam, he said he used to wear his smokey the bear hat tilted forward, one day they were out on the range and a recruit jammed his weapon my dad walked up to him as he rolled over and discharged the round right thru the front of his smokey. He said it took 5 other DI's to pull him off this kid....
Those 2 guy are Balistic high speed and they film bullets impacting various hard objects
Dude with the mag-dumping selfie - miss, miss, missmissmiss, miss miss, miss, miss...
That was Rob Ski in that AK Dad training video! I recognized him as soon as I heard him talking.
This woman was clearly trained and taught by a real man.
I'm speechless Alex, WTF is right for this video. Wow
Thank you Alex
😂iron sights baby 😍🥰 yessssssssss
We love AZ.! Cheers from Christmas Island.
1:47 It's not that the crates were empty, it's his head that is empty.
The sad part about the Marine in the beginning is that there is almost always one on the range that fails to put it back on safe when done firing, not sure if he lost count on that portion or if he was supposed to do a condition 1 reload next. And not sure what having someone shoot the ground next to you is supposed to accomplish for training, ignore the threat shooting at you right behind you? Probably not even able to learn the sounds rounds make based on proximity.
Lol. The dude with no iron sights that was too busy watching the camera instead of the target; he wasn't at the range. He was at a park in Chicago shooting at random apartments.
The sound of a bullet real close to you has a different sound than just rifles firing near by.
"Booger hook off of the bang switch" is what I think you were thinking of.
Not trying to be "that guy" correcting sh!t.
I love the videos although I find most of them more terrifying than amusing.
