That chunk just going through the rear dummies head in slow mo(11:15 ish) and the body hardly "reacting" had me thinking of Magneto slowly slicing through Kevin Bacon's head with the Nazi coin in the prequel X-Men movie.
@BensMiniToons there wasn't a charge at all in the rpg that exploded, just an empty canister with propellant. Also this video was filmed the same day as the incident, but obviously before.
Really puts into perspective how scary that was for everyone involved. Seeing what it does to a body then seeing the same explosion happen to your best friend. So glad you’re ok Adam
Well...the RPG used in the accident did not have explosives in it and did not go off, it was only the propellant charge that got jammed and exploded the launcher.
@@cyh4031 It was still extremely dangerous and scary as hell for everyone involved you dork. Who "well, actually" a near death experience? Starting the year off backward smh.
I finally understood the meaning of "keep shining, the world needs your light" so at some point in your life all you need to do is put RPG right in your heart.
In the 80's a soldier in the South African Defence Force was hit by an RPG7 projectile. It did not explode, but got stuck in his chest, just under the collar bone. A theatre had to be kitted out with sandbag walls from behind which the field surgeons could, after they had opened the area around the wound pull the projectile out with a cable. Everyone involved survived.
In Afghanistan 2006 there was a group of soldiers from the US army that got ambushed by Taliban and one of them got hit in the abdomen by an RPG. He was evacuated by helicopter to base, had to operate on him inside a secure area made of sandbags with the help of EOD. He lived
I'm so glad Adam is recovering so well. The video of the accident is just unreal. It's hard to believe anyone could survive that. Adam is a tough dude, to say the least.
A tough dude is a gross understatement. I've heard the german company Rheinmetall asked Adam for a quote on a DNA sample in order to make the next generation of tank armor.
It's called luck. Had the barrel erupted slightly more towards him... well... he'd be that dummy. Human body is nothing when forces like that are at play.
You can tell that everything was recorded before the accident except reviewing the slowmo, one of the shots where there reviewing the slowmo you hear him say he has that piece in his shop. Also in one of there previous videos they said they had more footage to release from before the accident and that the rocket explosion was the last shot of the day.
Having filmed your reactions after the “2023 incident,” it really makes you that much more grateful you’ve been able to heal and get back to it! Loved the video guys!
Adam quite literally is the man who gets straight back on the horse! Great to see your remarkable recovery Adam, both physically and psychologically 💪. Inspirational stuff🙏

He hasn’t made a complete recovery yet, he still has burns healing and last I heard about the nerve damage in the right side of his face it could be months or years before that heals, if it even does. He is making great progress, but it isn’t complete yet. Hopefully it will be a complete recovery and the TBI doesn’t have long lasting effects.

@@SwedishAnubis Unfortunatly one of the RPG 7 Rockets missfired, exploding right on Adams shoulder. Luckily it was a non-explosive dummy grenade, so "only" the propellant exploded. But yeah, that's what happend.
@Seeente still crazy he got out relatively unscathed. One of the craziest videos I've ever seen. I understand that it was only the propellant with a dummy head, and they weld those reactivated RPGs at a very high standard with xray verification and they deliberately weld it weaker on the front facing side so in the event of a failure the blast will go away from you, but this man had his face on a grenade that went off and lived to tell the tale
Kinda spooky seeing this and knowing what happened not too long after. So thankful Adam is okay and recovering as quickly as he is. Love you guys and your content! Been a subscriber since the beginning, and I look forward to seeing what y'all do in the coming years!
@Gorgon0k after. If you watch their previous video, they explain that they filmed the one that exploded after they had already captured all the other rpg footage for this series
2:24 Even with no boom you don't want to get hit with one in the face or you'll look like Adam. I'm glad you're good and recovering fast man, you got the content.

"I don't know how we one up this!" Coming back to watch this in late 2024 knowing what happens afterwards. God the levels of foreshadowing. Thank God for your life buddy and I will to
The way how the skeleton sticks out as shadows from the explosion makes this look like the Terminator 2 dream sequence with Sarah Connor's body being desintegrated by a nuclear explosion. Gruesome footage, for sure. Also, glad you're recovering well.
Just so you all know, they filmed this whole episode BEFORE Adams accident/malfunction/detonation. They were at no point negligent, complacent "possibly" by still eventually shoulder firing it, but as you can see they had no reason to believe a catastrophic failure was imminent. Also, it wasnt the Launchers failure, they suspect it was a chain detonation on the rocket fuses which is impossible to outwardly detect and no ones "fault" I dont know if this is covered in the video but im saying it here for all.
Yeah they got super stupid with it. Blocking a back blast cone while shoulder firing is a recipe for getting hurt. They should’ve known better. Play stupid games win stupid prizes. F around find out kinda stuff.
@@Xavieus You're too stupid for words. It is 100% CLEAR ON VIDEO that the back blast cone was IN NO WAY impeded. Go WATCH the investigation video: you're talking out a part of you that is NOT near your brain!
4:40 To answer that question It looks like a War Crime To many its just a Geneva Suggestion. Beside that bad joke. I am also amazed how quick Adam returned to making videos What a Chad.
Fact this happened to thousands of human being during modern era wars, and it keeps on happening, makes me very uncomfortable. Very good anti-war commercial right here.
I just want to thank you guys for restoring my fear of military explosives - after being totally underwhelmed by recent RUclips clips of frag grenades, explosive 50 cal rounds, even Sherman tank shell impacts, I was starting to wonder what the big deal was. That changed the moment this RPG exploded
Grats on the deal with Bunker Branding! All you had to do was survive a catastrophic firearm failure first 🙃 Seriously thanks for the great content and happy to see Adam recovering, and the channel doing well.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a HUGE fan of the Slo-Mo Guys, but while their videos are always *interesting* (I rarely miss a post), with the occasional *awesome* video, nearly every single BHS is (literally) a blast. Maybe not take-a-faulty-RPG-motor-to-the-face worthy, but no one can ever claim you'd let THAT stop you guys... Great video, as always. Keep up the great work!
I love you guys. Love your channel. Love your videos. Your personalities. Adam, so glad that you're doing well. Happy to see y'all on the unsubscribe podcast and getting to do stuff with some of my other favorite Guntubers. Happy to see Bunker Branding picked y'all up and that y'all are moving on up. Hope to see much more out of y'all in 2024. Stay safe guys.
Video idea: "How much does lying on a grenade actually absorb from the explosion?" It'd be really interesting to see that tested since we've heard stories before of brave soldiers sacrificing themselves to save their fellow men and how some of them even survive due to the equipment that they were wearing. An interesting way to test this would be having one dummy lie on top of the grenade while having a couple stand somewhere in it's proximity at different distances from the sacrificing dummy. Too see how far does it help someone else if you were to jump on top of one.
@@KanuckStreamsI'm fairly certain it was cause I was going to say the exact same thing I have memories of Adam talking about the principal and it being a viable tactic
There’s a book/diary I read a while back of a guy who was in the civil war in Sierra Leone and he vividly described when he saw someone get hit with an rpg and his description of the event perfectly matches this video..pretty wild that it wasn’t a exaggeration
3:24 and _THERE'S_ the sign that Adam's doin ok I was hoping to see! Kentucy Ballistics did a "Stick your thumb in it!" shirt after his accident and Adam has his own hoodie/sweatshirt.. Good on ya Adam!

I understand that it was only the propellant with a dummy head, and they weld those reactivated RPGs at a very high standard with xray verification and they deliberately weld it weaker on the front facing side so in the event of a failure the blast will go away from you, but this man had his face on a grenade that went off and lived to tell the tale
@@SeeenteWhat happened when it misfired? Does the RPG just explode or?
@@alvinvalentino5797 there is an entire video on it where they show it in slow motion
10:53 New t-shirt design "He's Liquid"
I’ve been looking forward to the other videos you recorded! Also, so glad you’re healing well!
sorta erie watching this knowing the overall outcome and what that rpg he is holding will do later. Super glad you recovered man!
I don’t know why, but your videos are way more cinematic than they need to be, it’s really cool.
It's so awesome to see you guys get the support y'all deserve! I can't wait to see what this channel does in a year from now. Awesome video
Love the vids guys, I’m glad he’s recovering well
Kinda spooky seeing this and knowing what happened not too long after. So thankful Adam is okay and recovering as quickly as he is. Love you guys and your content! Been a subscriber since the beginning, and I look forward to seeing what y'all do in the coming years!
@Gorgon0k after. If you watch their previous video, they explain that they filmed the one that exploded after they had already captured all the other rpg footage for this series
Most insane footage I ever seen. You guys just made history with this one it’s plain incredible
I can already hear the jokes about how this already happened coming-
Some might say it launched a new career for him.
Wha?
Wdym?
"MEDIC"
"Ja?"
*BOOM*
2:24 Even with no boom you don't want to get hit with one in the face or you'll look like Adam. I'm glad you're good and recovering fast man, you got the content.
That debri at 7:56 was a paid actor 😂
I never knew how much I needed this video
For your next phase of investigative testing of military explosives, you should delve into the art and science of LAND MINES. Both anti-personnel and anti-vehicle types. We DO want to see the equivalent of an HMMWV encountering a big mine. Under safe conditions, nobody actually gets hurt.
Chill out kiddo, download the anarchist cookbook and "explore" for yourself...😂😂😂
@@ryshellso526 It's safer and more fun to watch videos of it being done in controlled conditions. I will not risk my freedom, life, and limb to make things go boom by myself.
@ryshellso526 blud in christ thinks hes edgy 😭 😭 😭
with a ballistic dummy inside
@@squidwardo7074 At least four, I'm thinking.
Hey, you don’t actually have to one up it!
Slow mo sells, and we love to see it.
Keep healing up Adam!
Really hope Adam recovers fully. Because you guys managed to get some of the gnarliest high-speed footage on all RUclips 😁
Grow a pair
@@Andre-hu4je what kinda loser comment is this?
@@Andre-hu4je, I am pretty sure he had an HE malfunction and explode right next to his face, causing brain trauma, internal bleeding, broken bones, and 3rd degree burns requiring skin graphs to fix
@@jacksonbender9055 where is showing that?
Before this video on their RUclips they talked about the malfunction with Adam and the rpg, recommend you look at it
I have no words. That was awesome. Unbelievable.
"Tis but a scratch!" 7:39
Famous last words
But your arm is off!
Well Adam I'm glad you're okay now. I wishing you quick full recovery. You're very lucky man. Not even lose any fingers from that blast. What a miracle. Once again get well soon Adam!
That was Gears of war levels of spatter. Quite impressive, and brilliant capture on the camera, boys. keep on trucking
4.25 pink dust! God Bless that you are still here. You took all that to the face.
Oh boy this looks like it's gonna be a great video I sure do hope nothing bad happens!

327 Federal Magnum is the best Snub Nose Cartridge on the Planet. It fires 32 S&W Short or Long which have no recoil, 32 H&R and 32 ACP!
Just replying for my own future reference, don't mind me.
I see you commenting on tons of videos. I appreciate your attempt to revive the 327 Federal Magnum. It would be cool if it went mainstream and therefore became cheap
Damn. Ads are getting smarter these days. Ads disguised as comments - genius or pure evil? We'll never know...
@@mickyt6651 I don’t get paid any money by anybody or any organization! I wholeheartedly believe in 327 Federal Magnum as the Best Snub Nose Cartridge in the World!
You forgot to timestamp the multiple cuts to their face during the slow mo
Glad to see Adam is doing better. Also glad to see that y’all are taking more precautions with the RPGs. Them things, as you have learned, can be dangerous.
This was filmed before the accident which makes it even more scary knowing they saw this first.
@@waynesellers4078oh so that means they just got stupid with it.
@@Xavieus keep projecting, robert
@@Xavieus if you watch the accident video it explains what happened, no one got stupid, it just malfunctioned.
"I don't know how we one up this!" Coming back to watch this in late 2024 knowing what happens afterwards. God the levels of foreshadowing. Thank God for your life buddy and I will to
Yes the string thank you! Glad your alive. Im new around here. Glad the channels not over
Oh my god I didn't think this video would have those shots so impressive it exceeded my expectations.
The way how the skeleton sticks out as shadows from the explosion makes this look like the Terminator 2 dream sequence with Sarah Connor's body being desintegrated by a nuclear explosion.
Gruesome footage, for sure.
Also, glad you're recovering well.
I gotta say this is the best clip I ever saw on RUclips bro that was EPPPPPPPPIIICCCC
People say Mortal Kombat is gorey and brutal, well I guess they’ve never seen a ballistics dummy get hit directly with an RPG
Just so you all know, they filmed this whole episode BEFORE Adams accident/malfunction/detonation. They were at no point negligent, complacent "possibly" by still eventually shoulder firing it, but as you can see they had no reason to believe a catastrophic failure was imminent. Also, it wasnt the Launchers failure, they suspect it was a chain detonation on the rocket fuses which is impossible to outwardly detect and no ones "fault" I dont know if this is covered in the video but im saying it here for all.
Yeah they got super stupid with it. Blocking a back blast cone while shoulder firing is a recipe for getting hurt. They should’ve known better. Play stupid games win stupid prizes. F around find out kinda stuff.
@@Xavieus You're too stupid for words. It is 100% CLEAR ON VIDEO that the back blast cone was IN NO WAY impeded. Go WATCH the investigation video: you're talking out a part of you that is NOT near your brain!
4:40
To answer that question
It looks like a War Crime
To many its just a Geneva Suggestion.
Beside that bad joke.
I am also amazed how quick Adam returned to making videos
What a Chad.
That was one of the coolest slow-motion ballistic clips I’ve ever seen 😲
5:32 "What happened to this guy, he's still intact."
*Turns him around.*
Oh.
*dummy is absolutely mangled* “uhm… i don’t think he made it.”
2:02 FIRE IN THE HOLE 🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥
._.
You made every Necromancer in the Universe happy with this Corpse Explosion! 😂
Black river d4 is the new rpg?😂
Fact this happened to thousands of human being during modern era wars, and it keeps on happening, makes me very uncomfortable. Very good anti-war commercial right here.
To be fair it's not the most painful way to go
No most likely didn't happen this way. Super hard to hit a human usually it was proximity kills from what I understand.
@@UKnowtheThing exactly what happens with FPV drones in ukraine.
4:50 “ok I don’t think you want to get hit by a rocket” holy fucking shit that was some serious foreshadowing lol
erm actually this video was made after the accident 🤓
5:14 we can rebuild him, we have the technology
At this point, you're just making a robot and maybe smearing a little blood on it for decoration.
I just want to thank you guys for restoring my fear of military explosives - after being totally underwhelmed by recent RUclips clips of frag grenades, explosive 50 cal rounds, even Sherman tank shell impacts, I was starting to wonder what the big deal was. That changed the moment this RPG exploded
So glad to see you've fully recovered bud.
I'm glad the shock on your faces actually came through to us watching, I honestly believe that was bigger than you expected 😂 well done, great video 👍
I always find myself coming back to this channel. Your videos are entertaining and educational, BHS.
7:33 YOURE WELCOME EVERYONE!
Thanks man
@@Poja_0811 for sure:)
Real hero
Never saw this video, saw all the stuff about what happened with Adam, nothing short of a miracle that he's still with us, holy shit.
You should use the HEAT rounds for the RPG-7 against some thick steel or something similar to tank armor because that’s what it was designed for.
Is this even HEAT and not just HE? There is no jet at all. It should easily penetrate those cinder blocks.
That’s just HE, I’m asking where is the HEAT@@leocurious9919
Soldiers sometimes move on the armor of a tank
@@leocurious9919 these are murrica-made exploside ones, that RF does not use. There are thermobarics, then PG-7L modern HEAT. 500 mm RHAe.
@@cdgncgn Yes, but what they use in the video does not appear to be HEAT.
11:36 that protection turned into stone shrapnel pretty quick lmao
Grats on the deal with Bunker Branding! All you had to do was survive a catastrophic firearm failure first 🙃
Seriously thanks for the great content and happy to see Adam recovering, and the channel doing well.
Wishing him a speedy recovery
4:10 poor choice of words 😂😂
8:07 holy crap, it’s just gone. There’s nothing left
Sweet job! Let the ATF put that back together!
Don't get me wrong, I'm a HUGE fan of the Slo-Mo Guys, but while their videos are always *interesting* (I rarely miss a post), with the occasional *awesome* video, nearly every single BHS is (literally) a blast. Maybe not
take-a-faulty-RPG-motor-to-the-face worthy, but no one can ever claim you'd let THAT stop you guys... Great video, as always. Keep up the great work!
4:18 !!! there are no words...
6:18 “what did we do?!” 😂
Oh my God, look how powerful this rocket is
5:37 must have been 9mm
Oh no, not the forrupt president fan.
I love you guys. Love your channel. Love your videos. Your personalities. Adam, so glad that you're doing well. Happy to see y'all on the unsubscribe podcast and getting to do stuff with some of my other favorite Guntubers. Happy to see Bunker Branding picked y'all up and that y'all are moving on up. Hope to see much more out of y'all in 2024. Stay safe guys.
0:09 Average feeling of stubbing your toe:
11:49 he been listening to drill music 😂
Video idea: "How much does lying on a grenade actually absorb from the explosion?" It'd be really interesting to see that tested since we've heard stories before of brave soldiers sacrificing themselves to save their fellow men and how some of them even survive due to the equipment that they were wearing. An interesting way to test this would be having one dummy lie on top of the grenade while having a couple stand somewhere in it's proximity at different distances from the sacrificing dummy. Too see how far does it help someone else if you were to jump on top of one.
This.
I feel like this was tested in Mythbusters, but I could be wrong.
@@KanuckStreamsI'm fairly certain it was cause I was going to say the exact same thing I have memories of Adam talking about the principal and it being a viable tactic
7:47 that is some tasty looking bad guy mist
Mmm cannibalism.
@ 4:30 Enemy has left the building.
Both enemies 😂
There’s a book/diary I read a while back of a guy who was in the civil war in Sierra Leone and he vividly described when he saw someone get hit with an rpg and his description of the event perfectly matches this video..pretty wild that it wasn’t a exaggeration
3:24 and _THERE'S_ the sign that Adam's doin ok I was hoping to see! Kentucy Ballistics did a "Stick your thumb in it!" shirt after his accident and Adam has his own hoodie/sweatshirt.. Good on ya Adam!
What happended
