I do not know how that video can be accurate. I have been involved in competitive shooting for many years and even attended the famous "Thunder Ranch" when it was in Texas. If that were true, there were definitely some retarded individuals involved who can cause negative impact on the sport of shooting and firearms ownership. Tri.

I wasn't seeing any holes appearing in the targets on either side of him, and I can't think of a training program that would allow something like that with live ammunition.

There is a Darwin award winner born every minute.

Maybe someone should email him a link to pocket wizards and Gitzo Tripods??

Yeah, I don't know of ANY certified program that would allow him to stand there during firing.

I had to go back and look, and if you will notice, there are puffs of dirt popping up all around him.

Everytime that I have been involved with any type of firing range (or for that matter out at a ranch shooting in private) we would have never allowed someone to even be a foot "downrange" Just way too much that can go wrong. Even if the guys directy to the left and right of the "photographer" are shooting blanks, the rest of the people on the range are not...
