Not for those with a weak digestive tract!

Not enough thought into Newton's Law of Motion, To every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction...

Holy $__t. I'm glad I wasn't eating. I would have choked. Still laughing out loud as I type this.

Good thing he made sure his hand was real safe, huh?

He may be Dutch, but he should look up the French word, "ricochet."

Guess he never heard about always knowing what is beyond your target and having a good backstop. Oh yeah, and wearing proper eye protection.

Gotta be one of the funniest videos I've ever seen.

Frickin' luckiest SOB in the world that that thing didn't nail him 2" lower down.

Thanks - that video made my day.

He's very lucky, as Eric says, that it didn't hit him in the eye. He'd be blind in that eye now. (I don't think the glasses he had on would have been enough to save him.) Or his mouth or nose or neck. He's actually lucky, I'm guessing, that it was his head as it was somewhat of a glancing blow, and he has a skull there to offer some protection. He's also lucky there was someone there with him to help him.

He deserves a commendation from The Darwin Awards.

It's all fun and games until someone gets an eye put out.

Where do you get the slo-mo camera?

Sometimes stupid can sure be funny. I got a good chuckle from it. I find it hard to believe though. If it was my film the delete button would be the 1st thing I would do. I would never publish it. But I guess he is just that stupid.

Maybe he's not the one who published it. We know there was at least one other person there, the person who attended to him after he got hit. Maybe others were as well, or maybe she posted it.

I could see my wife posting a video of me being that stupid (if I ever was, which, of course, is impossible ).

She'd probably wait until it had a million hits before telling me, too.

I like how he blathered on about the safety of the design for quite some time before he was taken out

The "making of" video. It's not real.

Damn. That actually looked like a real blunt-force laceration, and they really do bleed like stink.

Really nice work.

Really, really nice. Wow.

He even goes on to discuss proper backstop caution.
