Just showed it to Y2K. He said it probably isn't a joke; that is what the live-leak website it known for (showing things that You-Tube won't allow). What are the odds of him (a) hitting a part of the backstop that would bounce the ball bearing back so violently, (b) it hitting him on its return travel and (c) him falling with the camera looking perfectly at his injury?

It looks completely real. Have seen that guy on other slingshot videos. Hope he is ok.

Oh my god. OUCH. That dude is lucky it didn't hit him in his eye cause he'd be blind. I guess the wooden backstop wasn't a good idea.

This guy has got mad skills in a couple different areas.

:mrgreen:
Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.

History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

I feel sorry for the guy. How many of us did something incredibly stupid and didn't have to pay the price? Man, that must hurt!

That's good - I really like that guy's videos.

Good lesson on ricochet's and Murphy's law, though...
