The gun at 1:05 sounds like the AK47 from CS:S

[QUOTE=Kylel999;51607352]The gun at 1:05 sounds like the AK47 from CS:S[/QUOTE] not sure if Latakia or Battlefield 4

I legitimately can't tell if this is celebration or war.

[QUOTE=matt000024;51607782]I legitimately can't tell if this is celebration or war.[/QUOTE] they're going to war with god

Fuck the clouds up.

Imagine if there was some plane accidentally flying around there.

I bet Texans wish they could do this

[QUOTE=Tacooo;51607883]I bet Texans wish they could do this[/QUOTE] I'm sure some of them have found a nice remote area to give their best attempt.

please, port clinton knows how to celebrate the new year right by dropping a giant fiberglass fish down a line while everyone gets drunk off their ass in the freezing weather

It's all fun and games until the bullets come back down.

I wonder if someone had a bomb and thought it would be a nice replacement for fireworks :v:

[QUOTE=UncleJimmema;51608236]It's all fun and games until the bullets come back down.[/QUOTE] They're harmless coming down if they're shot directly up, it's only if they're at an angle it's gonna be a problem. Don't know how much of an angle exactly, but the terminal velocity of a bullet is not lethal.

dont wanna be anywhere near where those bullets land

I think that what he wanted to say that horizontal bullets are dangerous.

now I'm not sure scientifically about it, but I'm pretty sure bullets get enough speed to be harmful when falling directly, people shoot horizontally because that'll make the bullets either land in an inhabited area, or travel a great distance over their effective range, then fall a few meters to the ground.

The rounds in this video are quite a bit larger than .30's.
