    Holy S***!

    You don't drop explosives below your boat! How do they think underwater mines work? Freaking idiots!
    You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body. -C.S. Lewis

    In economics, rent-seeking is an attempt to derive economic benefit by manipulating the social or political environment in which economic activities occur, rather than by adding value.

    No monopoly in the history of mankind has reformed itself from within. It has always taken an external threat – a competitor – to drive internal change.

    You kind of get the feeling the guy in the front talked the guy in the back into doing this. Notice the guy in the back looks fairly nonchalant until about the :08 mark, when you can see him tuck his head down and start to tense up, all the while holding his buddy's shoulder up front.

    He was holding him there to be sure he absorbed all the shrapnel and 90% of the blast. Nice guy.

    I would like to be the first to officially nominate these guys for idiot(s) of the year. They have some stiff competition from US politicians but should fair well.

    SCORP, we need a sticky to post and then narrow it down to a top ten finalist list to vote on.

    I hope the guys are mostly okay and learn from the experience, but at the same time I hope shrapnel took out their testes so they never reproduce. Seriously who the F*** thinks it's a great idea to drop an explosive twelve inches from the side of your boat? Stupidity truly knows no borders...

    I ran that video a half-dozen times...

    I think I (seriously) have it doped out. <-- Good phrase.

    The as$hole holding the grenade had the spoon flipped, and the pair of them were playing "chicken".

    First one to "break" loses. (Explains the arm contact.)

    Looks like the one who broke first lost double. Fargin blast lifted him nearly 2 feet. He is in trouble -- if not dead.

    I have chunked grenades into DEEP water (hey, I wuz 40 years younger and in a boomy-zone anyway) and they sink so fast they are not really any danger at all...

    PROVIDING YOU GET RID OF THEM IMMEDIATELY!!

    QWAK,In grade school I had a friend who wanted to see if an "M80" realy would go off under water.

    He invited me and several other guys over to watch when he droped one what he waited down in to a full old fassion double wash tub like they had in old apartment buildings.

    It went OFF all right --- BLEW the bottom out of the tub!! I looked like some one had taken a sledge hammer to it! In fact I believe that is what his father and the police decided MUST have happened!

    After that he tried FLUSHING one down the camode at the PARK

    Does the same thing to PORCELIN only there is also porcelin SHRAPINAL going out in all directions! The JOHN was closed for the summer as I remember.

    Last I heard of him he was in the NAVY on the deck of aircraft carrier and some how walked in to a spining propeller! Never knew what hit him but made a big MESS on the DECK!

    the DUCK
    "ALL is ONE" What we DO to and FOR others we DO "TO and FOR" our selves ultimitly!

    People SELDOM look for TRUTH! What they look for is CONFERMATION that what they have chosen to believe IS TRUTH! This is why people will believe almost ANY THING and also WHY the WORLD is SO MESSED UP!

    IT is never realy OVER -- things just CHANGE!

    You can QUOTE me on ALL! It IS what I believe to be TRUE!

    I AM, the DUCK

    Assuming it's real, and it sure does look it, it would be interesting to see the movie and see where that scene was used.

    I don't know how you could fake that. It looks too real.

    Just googled it. Are saying this is the scene from that movie where the guy got killed? If that's the case this video doesn't appear to fit what was described in the article.

    Only part fake.
    It is from the movie, it's a stunt gone wrong, fake 'Russians', fake grenade......putt, putt, putt,.... drop 'grenade'.. pyrotechnic crew triggers underwater blast....oops, maybe too close, maybe too much boom, maybe the 'charge' floated up, anyway you look at it, 'they blowed up real good'.
    And because someone is playing in the choir eternal, it'll be a long time before the investigation is conclusive.

    Thanks to Tech Guy, I now know I wuz wrong three outa four ways...

    1. They weren't playing "chicken".

    2. They weren't Rooshians

    3. It WAS being done for a movie.

    The part I got right (seen the like of it before): When a grenade blast lifts you two feet up, you are most likely starched.

    And yup, y'all watched him die.
