Wow, I can't imagine how fast my heart would be pumping if I was that close to people who desperately wanted to kill me. Interesting footage indeed.

Yep, still fairly certain I have no desire to get shot at.

GRENADE!

Is it normal to walk around in the clearing like that...I feel like he'd be an open target.

That footage looks amazingly similar to FPS combat sims...

Pan and strafe, crouch and creep, reloading, etc.

:thumbsup: to our armed forces.

Application?

I'd love to go back over right now. Just aint in my cards at the moment.

 

[CRXican]

was he aiming?

looks like shooting from the hip

 

[hanoverphist]

he said "time to earn our pay" not "your"


and that would be plain crazy to be in the fray like that.

You are in Texas, and the blokes in the video are British.
Just FYI
Anyway, it is a great video

The camera is probably on top of his helmet, so the gun was probably at shoulder level.

i was wondering that as well. also, i couldn't see anything that they were shooting at until the very end where you see the body on the ground. I was thinking it was fake at first, and I'm still not sure it was real.
