Coues Sniper Report post Posted July 31, 2017 are kids that stupid? I remember having an archery contest with 2 of my friends when I was a kid, we would shoot arrows straight up into the air and whoever got the arrow to land closest to them without moving, was the winner. These weren't toy bows; we deer hunted with them. Spent a whole day doing that. This without YouTube providing inspiration. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOL. But now the story is believable watching the video. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
northAZarcher Report post Posted July 31, 2017 People die every year for doing dumb stuff. Doesn't matter if it's on a video or not. I've done things as a kid that I surprised I didn't end up in a hospital more often. You can take videos off the web all you want, kids and some adults will still attempt things that will possibly be fatal. Maybe we should just make a law that states we can't do anything that might hurt or kill us! That way we can eliminate just about everything! Problem solved!

AzDiamondHeat Report post Posted July 31, 2017 We have all done dumb things in our lives that could have killed us or our friends. Fortunately, cell phones and the internet were not around back then to document and share our attempts at earning a Darwin award. Anyone want to have a bb gun war?..... With that said, I do think what he did was reckless. If it was some no-name hillbilly I wonder if there would be as much discussion or simply a passing comment about winning stupid awards. As a parent, I think it was stupid given that he IS a "role model" for some. As a dude, I thought it was...welll...a dude thing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coues Sniper Report post Posted July 31, 2017 You guys said that video is a bad influence, the op is mad at it. Boys have been boys forever without fake cam Hanes vids I ain't mad. Just saying that some poor kid that thinks Cam is cool, could try and imitate and shoot his buddy's face off. Point taken that we don't need the internet to do dumb stuff, flip side is - clearly we don't need help thinking of dumb stuff to do either. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
