How about stopping to think about all of the times you've done someting stupid and have been lucky enough to come away with all your limbs intact.
I know, I know, it's never happend right?

Personally, I would never do something like that because I know better, especially since I know someone whom of which that happened.
However, that doesn't mean that I do not do other things as equally stupid in other aspects of life and never realize it, just like all of you do I'm sure. Unless none of you guys are human. But, this guy was smart enough to realize what he did was completely bonehead and accepts full responsibility for it. He even admits so, if some of you guys even bothered to read it. He probably didn't think an engine at idle had enough power to do something like that.
Alot of people think a .22LR isn't a dangerous round. They think because its one of the bottom rung bullets thats its no big deal. Let me tell ya something, a freakin .22 will go right through your head at 200 yards and still keep going. I saw a test done once where a guy took a subsonic round of .22LR, which is even less powerful than a standard round. He shot it 300 yards in 15 MPH winds. It went the 300 yards and even went straight through a still partially frozen turkey, 6 layers of heavy shirts, duct tape, and a piece of paper....like they weren't even there. Thats a subsonic round traveling at 1050 feet per second. What would a hypervelocity CCI Stinger do traveling at 1650 FPS?
Same with shotguns, everyone thinks a shotgun is an extremely close gun and its near worthless at distances. Shotguns are highly modifiable. I regularly shoot and explode water jugs at 50 yards using nothing more than birdshot. Imagine buckshot, or a slug.
People just pass down idiotic information and we all take it for truth without even thinking or testing it for ourselves.

Where did the gun analogy come from? I regularly shoot 3" slugs out of a shot gun, and my ruger 9mm handgun... and.... Any gun is dangerous, .22 will go for a mile. Shot guns can go the distances, but drop off very fast, i think the rounds i shoot out of the shotgun drop 8" or so at 100 yards...
