Some say it's real, some say it's fake. What do you think?

Definately real. You can see al the bullets hit next to him and Funker's videos are all legit.

I don't know man, my 16 y.o. Cousin is fantastic with effects. He could recreate this easily. Then again, it very well could be real. I just have seen sound and visual effects like this.

I don't know, are the 4 bullets that hit the soldier real? Is the 7.62mm hole in his M203 real? Are the soldier's interviews across the nation real? Read up, this guy is a hero.

There is no question that this video is real. It's part of a huge series of videos from troops overseas that record combat situations with helmet cams. The videos are not just of American troops but of British as well as canadian troops.

Yea, this is definitely real. I've seen a video of a British soldier fall on camera. Really sad, but it's the hateful truth of war.
I stumbled across one video of some civilians running on an interstate and one by one dropping from an OpFor sniper. I think it's been taken down since then though.

Real, people are over thinking it.
Also, hard to say if he is a hero or not without being there. What it sounds like to me is that he made an extremely reckless decision and just added to the count of soldiers hurt by throwing himself out there.

Not real. Unless he just landed in the DZ, his gear is a little too clean. Those gloves look like he just pulled them out of the package.
I use to be in the Army. Even one day of operations in terrain like that and your gear is a mess. Copy cat looking for attention is all this is.
Haha, after another go through of this video. I noticed his patch. That patch is worn on all Ft. Carson uniforms. I also recognize the training grounds ( Pinon Canyon ) which is at the base of the mountains in the Rocky Mountains. I was with the 4th Engineers at Ft. Carson.
WHAT I CROSSED OUT IS FALSE. READ MY FOLLOWING POST.

why dont we have sunshine look at this he was in the military I don't plan on giving my opinion on a video like this. If it's real thn god forbid why he went down alone and threw his weapon if he got hit. If it's not real who knows maybe it was some training, or maybe the guy is a scumbag like that. Either way video like this piss me off, what's worse than seeing a fellow servicemen get hit? |
