well that was slightly disturbing...

just what do you do after something like that happens... run around aimlessly for 10 seconds is a good start...

and out of all those people, only 1 dude went down ?

Okay, I'm too much of a sissy to watch it. What happens? From what I gather, a guy (cop?) is disarming a bomb and people gather around to watch. The bomb goes off, killing the cop (only because he'd be the closest) and some other guy. Is that about right?

watch the vid, it's nothing... all you see after the white/yellow blast is a corpse on the ground in a weird position. Still shocked it was only 1 guy (right?). You don't see limbs flying or anything like that.

How did only the 1 guy get killed with all those other people standing around?

If you watch again i believe its the guy disarming the bomb, he was hunched over it and definately took the brunt of the explosion.

you guys see the dude who went slightly over to the corpse afterward... then just turned away thinking... yeah right... stick a fork in him... he's done.

I don't think the guy defusing the bomb is the one that got killed. Look at the guy in the green pants and white shirt to the right of him. That's who I think died.

I wonder where that was. That's some kind of backward-ass country where the police just let people gather around an unexploded bomb while they're messing with it.

Classic. Absolutely CLASSIC. This, my friend, is how the bad DNA is weeded out from this world.

Islamic/Middle-Eastern Darwinism. Remember that other clip where the Iraqi with the RPG got pasted? The bystanders there started doing that "loooolooooloooloooo" sh!t there too.
