I mean what the F*** were these people thinking? Oh yea.. a hard cover book will stop a .50 cal Desert Eagle! I mean yea, this is sad for the family and the girlfriend, but how incredibly dumb are these people?? http://www.startribune.com/minnesot...friend-in-fame-seeking-video-prank/431313063/
Before opening this thread I knew it was going to be this one. People are stupid, I've learned to just accept that. If you practice medicine/surg the type of stupidity you will see is off the charts.
Youtube and twitter are breaking our species. He wanted to get a lot of views. Also, forget about background checks; how about a low-level IQ test before someone buys a Desert Eagle? (I'm not serious. I know what country I'm living in, but still!)
Using an encyclopedia to stop a 50 cal DE is like using a sheet of paper to block a sword attack. So incredibly stupid.
I heard about it. Good lord - I wouldn't try this with a .25, much less a .50 caliber pistol. Madness!
