are you still implying that this is fake?
who cares, really, this video is awesome.

26 seconds on, that fist sized bit of rock was two feet away from hitting him in the head.
Shrapnel is terrifying.[/QUOTE]
And that's why explosions these days are just huge fireballs instead of real explosions.

In the slomo, it doesn't look like it hits the ground at an angle to leave a gash in the grass. Real or not, This is kinda unpleasant to see

I highly doubt this is fake. For one, the last time he tried to fake something (the remote control drone) it was painfully obvious it was CG.

But with this, it matches far too well with everything else to be fake. If it was faked it would have been done by some top notch animators. Especially considering how erratically the shrapnel moved, like how it curved in the air due to it being a boomerang shape. (Also, in regards to your comment about the grass, look at the shot where the smoke has cleared. Most of the grass, even the grass around the car, still looks fairly intact.)
The other thing is that they also give you the slowmo shot right afterwards, in which you can see the door get sent flying. It gets sent down into the ground, where it ricochets, just like in the real time version, you can see it bouncing up off the ground right as the car explodes.

I would love to know what in his tiny rifle could have possibly triggered a full on actual explosion just by shooting one bullet at a car.
Not to mention the camera doesn't even flinch in front of a rather huge explosion and has absolutely no issue filming what should normally be a massive ball of fire.
And don't tell me he shot the gas tank or whatever because making a car explode by shooting/lighting the gas tank on fire is just a myth. Filling the car with explosives won't help either because it will just detonate then make the car catch on fire, but certainly not implode in a shower of shrapnel.

He usually stuffs targets full of explosives before he shoots them, I'm guessing he did the same here.

That would not make a car explode like that. Did he also fill it with dust so it makes a big nice cloud of dirt ?

I guess the dirt floor below the car wouldn't do anything after an explosion?

Tannerite or an equal equivalent does the same thing.
(It's used for making exploding targets)
For example.

Legally available pretty much everywhere, Just have to mix up a big batch.
And not stand so close.
I think it's probably real, you can hear the camera guy say "holy fucking shit" after he just saw him nearly get taken out by shrapnel.
[editline]3rd January 2013[/editline]
Unless he's got some seriously fucking good animators, as in the kind who do stuff for movies then it's probably real.

1) get some knowledge on guns before automatically assuming every gun shoots exactly the same
2) did it ever occur to you that the camera might be on a tripod
3) you're retarded

It's hardly diverse. In most cases there's a strong, obvious surplus on one opinion. And it has good reasons for that, the majority of the users here are similar in quite a few aspects.
That's why public opinion applies strongly on Facepunch. Not trying to sound self centered here by the way, it might sound like my goal was to boost my ego by pointing this out, that's not the case.

I agree, but maybe I'm an idiot. It looks, fake.
Like don't kill me, but when it gets near the camera, and when it exits the smoke, it looks like it's moving faster than the parts of the car behind it which are smaller. That doesn't make any sense.
In the second angle they showed it from, the door is moving much slower, and as the small shrapnel has already cleared the radius of the car, the door is still there. In the first shot the door was long gone when the shrapnel was in the air.
Don't get me started on that little "whoosh" noise.
If you think about it, it would have to be a really good fake if it was going to be watched and rewatched by [B]EVERYONE ON YOUTUBE.[/B]
Fucking cynics
Uhh you know that small things lose momentum quickly, where door-sized chunks of metal can carry on for a while and still be going pretty fast
and a "woosh" is a perfectly normal noise for something that is torn to shreds to make when it flies past your camera

A door that had just been blown off a car, slightly disfigured and most likely really sharp, hit him in the chest at that speed... I have a good feeling it would've either done a lot of damage, like death probably?

You must not understand basic physics. An object traveling at a very high velocity when encountering a soft bodied target will tumble and tear as it goes. That piece of door probably could've cleaved him in half given the energy and speed it was traveling at.

What? A sharp, fast moving object hitting someone normally results in death.
Saying he didn't care about his cameraman is complete bullshit.
You saw it in his eyes and facial expression that he just thought "holy shit, we coulv'e been dead now but let's finish this up so we don't have to film it again".
