Also whatever State that was in where the guy blew his head off by trying to launch a bottle rocket off of it a few years ago.

They all must certainly have Ohio ties... like having lived or grew up there....relatives from there... pets...drove through there once...

There's a little Ohio in all of these people.

Per the local news station

 On the last shot, the lawnmower explodes in a cloud of water vapor. Shrapnel can be seen flying in all direction. The camera shot wavers. 

"I blew my leg off! Oh, [expletive]!"  

That's when what's happened hits the amateur cameraman: "Aw, [expletive]!"

 

Yes, he almost got his Darwin award.

Not enough to shoot it from like 50' but you also packed it into a f*cking metal lawnmower ensuring there's shrapnel flying as well. I do not feel sympathy for these morons

Tactical firearm ... check

Tactical vest .... check

Tactical glasses.... check

Betcha lunch he had a KBar knife strapped to what used to be his calf.  

Dude is ready.... well he was ready before he blew his leg off.  Now he's not so ready, but he'll be ready again once he's outfitted with his new tactical prosthesis.

And as a gun owner I may or may not sympathize.  I certainly have no sorrow for dude who blew his leg off, but the story would be much different if he had a kid or two behind him watching the show.  

Probably better we stick with discussions of vinegar production.  

Cheers and Go Blue.

Maybe he should practice shooting at, you know, a paper target and make sure he can hit that before he shoots close up at explosives.  If he'd have been a proficient shot and hit it when he first started shooting, he'd still be an idiot.

I just don't understand how exactly he didn't think that blowing something up that is made of metal would end in any sort of positive outcome.  Blowing stuff up is fun and I highly approve of it as a recreational activity, but good lord know your limits.  

We also need to check to see how close he was to the Florida border, as crazy can spill over into adjoining neighborhoods.
