The whole video is typical tacticool mall ninja online video gun review. Fast forward to about 2:40 to see the big oops. But watch the whole video to see his propensity for not following the Four Rules even before it finally catches up to him.
This is a great reminder for everyone about how easy it is to forget that your weapon is loaded. THIS is why we have Rule 1 (All guns are always loaded) and Rule 3 (Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot).

At least he wasn't looking down the barrel when he demonstrated that "cool" feature. My question is, why would you actually post the video after his "accident". The first thing I would have done, if I were that stupid, would be to delete the video.
P.S. This post (1955) marks my birth year.

I was particularly impressed by his technical knowledge of the Model 37 Ithaca being designed with the bottom "feed thing" so it wouldn't get dust and stuff in it during WWII. It seems Browning and Pederson were soothsayers back in 1915 when they designed with no "side machine thing". I think he was about to describe the "slamfire" feature of the shotgun when he got the surprise.
Maybe youtube videos should be included in background checks.

Probably the same reason as this moron (notoriety)
caution - language - for those who've never seen this video from "Tex" and his "Kimber Pro Carry 45" ...
Should be titled 'The World's Most Stupid People'. In some of these people's defense they were put in the situation by a person who is supposedly 'knowledgeable about guns' and is really the stupid one for not preparing them for what would happen.

Why guys give these little petite girls pistol grip shotguns and desert eagles to shoot is beyond me. What is the rifle with the massive recoil that all the arabs are shooting?
