I thought you were a good demoman?
Wow, bad timing was bad. You guys should have just sped through that though, you're lucky there wasn't an ambush after that.

He's not sitting here discussing it with you, now is he?

we had about a dozen vehicles and air support. an ambush would have been fun... for us. another video will be going up soon.

I love the reverse of that, like it's some middle management interview.
"What makes me a bad demoman? IF I WERE A GOOD DEMOMAN I WOULDN'T BE HERE DISCUSSIN' WITH YOU NOW WOULD I?"
I remember watching this about a month ago on liveleak too.

then again alot of these videos look alike...
Damn. Anyone know what the IED was? 155mm artillery shells or motar shells?
Mortar. 155mm they would have taken some damage from that distance.
[QUOTE=Subhazardman;18292773]Mortar. 155mm they would have taken some damage from that distance.[/QUOTE]
Seems pretty big for a motar round.
[QUOTE=Robert!;18292822]Seems pretty big for a motar round.[/QUOTE]
That's because it's right in front of you.
It could have been more than one.
Or it could have been neither of your selections, sir.
yea most of the IED's in that area were burried (don't know why) so most of the impact is actually absorbed by the ground. hence all the debris afterwards. we never saw anything smaller than a .155 round (well the ones we found anyways)
[QUOTE=StatelyGentlman;18291921]I thought you were a good demoman?[/QUOTE]
If he was a bad demoman, he couldn't be sittin here discussin' it with you, now would he?

Fuck. Give me clocks.
So, you guys didn't worry about secondary explosions?

i did. those idiots you saw get out were the commander and his posse.
I feel as if I've seen this before, but whatever. Anyways, what branch do you serve under bender?
