That instructor is a far braver and far more trusting and frankly far more foolish man then I.

There is a video out there of Russian security doing something similar.

I've seen that before. The Russian drill is much more intense in my opinion.

There is the urban myth that bogart, cagney, raft, robinson, etc. all quit doing gangster/mobster films due to actually being shot at in live-fire shootout scenes, often with one or more tommies and 50 round drums.....cagney was supposedly injured from brick fragments from a too close hit.....

The real reason for fewer flicks of that genre might actually be the hays code requirement that a crime boss heavy has to be either killed or incarcerated. And then later the mafia gained influence with the big studios by laundering money through the financing and production of individual films and not wanting the bad press of such subject matter.

Yeah, I might do that with PAINTBALL guns (with goggles on), but no way with real guns.

Crazy.
