I've been sent this video which is a lecture about new forms of investigation (Investigation 2.0), which I was sent because it features me, but it also has some interesting discussion about other people who have been working on other military related projects which some of you might be interested in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQBtc_szJh0

Bob A Feet posted:Like, how did this happen? Whenever I've done a grenade on a range its been mad safe. Not to nerd out but no PPE, sandbag berm. Did the grenade just drop over her shoulder when she went to throw it? And why the gently caress does the PSO behind her glance up over the berm as it goes off? My head would be buried in the loving ground. In the video you can see it bounce off the sandbag wall, just below the top. I've never thrown a grenade, is it really that loving difficult?

They're quite a bit heavier than a baseball I'd say. In theory it should be easy to not gently caress up but I still hate doing it even after getting to throw live grenades 3 times now. It's terrifying because of exactly that video.

I always end up death gripping it before the throw. It's hard to stop thinking that you're holding a decent sized boom in your hand and Bad Things happen if it slips out.

That's funny because when I went to throw a grenade I said gently caress the counter-intuitive way I was taught to throw them and chucked that poo poo like a baseball. It got me tackled even though I threw it like 40 yards.

It got me tackled even though I threw it like 40 yards. They told me to throw it like a baseball in basic. And I did. And it went far as gently caress because I totally could've gotten drafted out of highschool if my shoulder didn't suck AND IT'S TRUE I WONT HEAR OTHERWISE!

I hit someone during the CFT with a dummy grenade once because I threw it like I was throwing someone out at first. it was my first cft

Like if you've ever worked with the ROK military or JSDF it should make perfect sense to you how this could happen. Cerekk posted:Misread, watched for Mark 48 vs attack helo, was disappointed. I did the same thing. I was hoping at least for a sub shooting a missile at a helo or something.

This was an incredible moment but a horrid display of sportsmanship. It was intentional, however, which differs it from the others.

A tragic day for the 81st Beige Brigade. Did you know that Afghanistan has a national cricket team and yet no baseball team? I'm sure D&D would not be impressed.

Is it usual for the guy on the left to have his hand on her non-throwing arm? Never thrown a grenade before.

Not that I've ever seen, no. Since that's China, who the gently caress knows. But no, probably not.

In the times I've thrown live grenades you have one safety guy in the bunker who never touches you. I dunno wtf is happening there.
