Actually crazy how many videos exist of people doing this.

One action, three rules broken. Absolute window licker behavior

Look at the 36 second mark. The shotgun twists ever so slightly changing the angle of the barrel from pointing directly at his head to just barely in front of him a split second before firing. If guardian angels are real, we just witnessed one in action.

It's fine, he has a safety vest on.

Jesus Christ you gotta be a special kinda stupid to do some shit like this

Ah yes, the very first Darwin Award video

It's almost like there should be a whole section of the safety brief that covers this... Oh wait...

I was like "doing what"...and then, holy shit.

Guardian angel turned in the resignation letter after this

Jesus fucking Christ what a moron bros lucky he’s not dead

Pucker factor: over 9000, Thousands videos of this aside you’d think that knowing what comes out the business end they wouldn’t even think to put their face in front of it.

Dumbest luckiest motherfucker I have ever seen.

I can't begin to imagine what they think they're going to see that might be helpful.

Bro was about an inch away from reenacting what Kurt Cobain did! FUCK!

Surprised he was wearing a vest. Boomers hate PPE.

1/2inch from canoeing himself

This one didn't make it. 😂

I have always been a fan of learning from other people's stupid mistakes. Seems to work out better that way.

What did he expect to see? At the very least it's a long, dark tube - you won't see anything? Completely disregard that it's a gun and it still makes no sense!

I wonder how many more are sitting on hard drives in cameras in evidence lockers when they found the body

At thus point, it's natural selection. A poor, innocent firearm blamed for smooth brained owners actions. "ASPCA Commercial music playing"

what the fuck do you think you're gonna see late/early in the day down the 18"-20" barrel of a shotgun? answer: your entire life in about .1 seconds with .2 seconds remembering everything you've ever done wrong up to the moment of diagnosing a hangfire from the business end of it

This is a classic. Probably one of the first gun fail videos I ever saw on YouTube.

Just like with Trump had it fired a 1/4 second earlier he’d be dead

I don’t even understand what he’s trying to do. If you want to look down the barrel then you need daylight from the breach, which means the action needs to be open.

Damn... Even at point blank, still missed

I hope he went straight out and bought a lotto ticket...damn!

Why in the fuck would you ever look down the barrel of the gun, that’s not where the problem is.

Fucking hang fire, clear the weapon

One second you’re just shooting trash and loving life and then this happens.

*almost* smoove off

HOW DID HE NOT WIN A DARWIN AWARD?!

Shame it missed, would've been more entertaining
