Also, uh, if you have any doubt in your fortitude whatsoever, do not watch them.
Seriously.
For anyone who is curious but might not want to watch the video, here’s a description I found that a friend of mine who watched it says is accurate:
Description
he got shot in the neck by a high powered rifle and instantly litres of blood spewed out as he slumped over. He likely won't survive.Dude could have fell off his seat and onto a trauma operating table and still died.
Yeah that matches what I saw
Like an open spigot.
Like Kill Bill levels of blood squirting out?
Heavy leaking artery. Not as a bad as that Buffalo Sabres goalie in the 90s getting cut by a skate
Yep yep yep this x100, if you have PTSD or just have never seen or cannot handle extreme gore, probably actually do not watch the clip.
This is an extremely legitimately trigger warning worthy video clip.
Ya, the video is grim. Seriously doubt he survived.
For anyone wondering: it's not gory as such, but it is significant in that way that tells our lizard brains something undeniably bad just happened.
I...what?
How else would you define 'gory'?
I am genuienly curious, you have a definition of gore....that is not fundamentally based in a human realizing something is very, very wrong with another living being?
Like... your blood is generally supposed to stay inside you. Blood is generally considered more gory the more of it there is.
I mean, the phrase "blood and gore" sort of lays out the distinction.
I don’t think people are used to seeing that volume of blood outside movies. That’s like, dead in minutes type bleeding
Finally someone who can shoot (sorry Tommy Crooks, you suck)
Agree. I watched it and really wish I hadn't.
