Paintball headshot!!

[Angry Bill]

Anybody that knows me, knows that I play competitive paintball at major tourneys in the US, including Huntington Beach at the end of the month!


I saw this video and laughed my ass off... Good thing this guy wore a mask! Ouch!

It's that kinda stuff that made me give up playing paintball to go fishing. Guys have markers nowadays you can do your house in 45 minutes with.

On a less funny note I saw a guy lose an eye playing ... dumbass wanted to smoke, so he lights up sitting in a fort at the back of this gigantic field in a day-long "theme" game ... I'm sitting next to him, and just as I tell him to put his mask back on a hail of paintballs come at us ... about the 3rd one hit him right in the eye and ruptured his cornea.

It is one hell of a sport.. ANd how I got my nickname... AB... lol.. I'm way too competitive...

Wow...I'm dieing over here :hysterica

I've only been once, and it wasn't anywhere near that violent. There's an advantage to having crappy equipment!

 

[RigilKent]

haahaha that was great

What type of velocity did that guy take in that head shot. Is it as brutal as it looked? What was he feeling like the next day?

Never played. After seeing that, not sure I ever will.... :laugh:

A paintball hit him that hard to knock him over? Yowzer, glad I wasn't playing.

 

[TexaSmoke]

Wow, that guy was just a sitting duck. And that paint ball looked like it was going a lot faster than the ones I used to play with. Granted I didn't play competitively.

What a frickn' puss I can't believe he dropped his weapon in the sand, what a dope! Rule #1 in paintball never drop your weapon in the sand, that's hours of cleaning. To answer Wade's question no a paintball will not know you over, period. That kid way over reacted. They sting but can not knock you down.

Best place to get hit in is the mask, no pain! I got hit in the throat one time while playing with some friends at a local field.

I used to play paintball quite a bit....used to use the SmartParts Shocker with the Eye. I got out of it because it was so time consuming and expensive. Now I'm in a hobby that is just as bad haha!

Yeah, a little acting went a long way on this one!!!! Max that any rec or tourney course will let you go is a 300FPS>... (unless you freeze the paint, not that I know anything about that!!!!):halfgrinw

 

[WhiteLightning]

That's gonna hurt in the morning.

 

[Smurf]

I like woodsball much more, never got into speedball


we should set up a paintball herf.

In the summer, there is this storming normandy reinactment in the poconos that is a huge paintaball thing with like thousands of people.

 

[jmatkins]

Yea that will hurt. I use to play some in SC when I was growing up. Some of the guys I payed with would put some paint balls in the frezzer over night and load them in there guns. That did hrut a bit.

 

[AndrewDill]

Funny video

I use to play often at Hollywood sports and SC Village. Tons of fun. I loaned my Autococker+egg setup to a "friend". Never saw either one of them again =/
