Exactly!!! Dude just shot a cop, who cares if he kills himself. At least he didn't shoot another one.

You guys are wimps for being squeamish over this. From the description, I had feared he would have shot the cops, but he did all of us tax-payers a favor and blew his own brains out. Justice is served.

Oh its spilling out alright. See that long trickle of hair thats hanging after he shoots himself? That's actually a very steady stream of blood.

Was my imagination, or was there a noise like trickling water at the end? I assumed that was blood pouring out the back/ side of his head (tho it could have been the water cooler I guess)

WOw, that's some crazy shit..

Notice how long it takes for him to completely die? He even twitches again at the end..

And you can hear the stream(s) of blood pouring out of his head onto the floor.....

Morbid stuff.

Edit: Actually, he's still alive through the very end of the video. The blood pouring out of his head means a beating heart... plus the twitches...

crazy.

I watched it and thought, meh - I've seen worse. Is that a bad thing. It's interesting how calm he is beforehand, just takes a sip of water like it's nothing.

i can believe that it happened, im not so sure i believe thats the real video tho......i dunno, even a gun like that shot thru the temple should still come out the other side of the head (the temples arnt exactly the thickest part of the skull) that would allow all the twitching to still go on, if the bullet is contained in the skull it completely shreds the brain into total mush and synaptic response degrades far faster.....yes there could still be muscular reaction, but not a lot....also the way the cop seems rather too calm and just picks up some of the stuff of the table and walks out again....why the stuff on the table?
Not saying its definitely not the real video, it just, i dunno, seemed a little to orchestrated to my mind.

i think the bullet came out the guy's neck.. when his head topples over, you can see a red mark on the side of his neck.. i dont know anything about bullets being shot through someone skull, so i dont know if that's possible, or if an exit wound would even look like that..

what i found most disturbing was how the cop acted.. "aw sh!t" grabs his stuff and jets.. i didn't think this was real.. pretty freaky to say the least.. wow...

Ever seen a chicken with it's head cut off? It still runs. besides, The cop knew the guy was dead, once you've been on the force for a while, you become desensitized and learn how to control all emotions in the event of crisis.

Do they make hollowpoint for .45s?

If so, that would be a reason the bullet didn't come out the other side, it would have scattered all over the inside of his head instead.

Look at the water bottle as he shoots himself.
He's clenching it pretty tight.

Just something I noticed.
