I hope that guy is okay. That close of range.. I don't want to think about it. :/

I believe that an extraordinary amount of accidents involve the words "Hey y'all, watch this!". And booze.

Isn't that just redneck accidents?

BBs don't have all that much energy, though. There's a reason "you'll shoot your eye out" is a classic -- you're not going to be able to do much more than that.

But it's entirely possible he lost the eye *if the animated gif is actually genuine*.

My money is on fake/staged.

It looks like a paintball to me--which is why you get some response in the eyeball region in the .gif.

Naw, those are city kids. You can tell by their clothes and the fact that they're being stupid with a gun (even a bb gun).

below is an example of redneck fun...

Look at the hopper on the gun and the burst of yellow on his eye - that's a paintball gun, not a BB.

I can guarantee that the same amount of accidents happen to nerds, and they start with the same (or similar) words...

Men + alcohol produces no shortage of stupid behaviour. Not saying that's the ONLY cause of stupid, but some of the stupidest shit I've ever seen involved that combination. Alcohol makes all sorts of things suddenly seem like good ideas, when you'd know better sober.

I can't tell if that's a beer can or a different beverage on his head. I do know that if it was a paintball gun they could actually destroy the eyeball (it's far more delicate than people think). If a paintball can smoosh an eyeball at point blank, a BB definitely could.

I'm hoping for the sake of the involved that's a fake, but I could believe it to be true.

Yeah, I had been thinking a paintball gun, too.

See my comment above regarding men + alcohol. :) Men come up with interesting ideas sober but alcohol seems to make them think it's a good idea to try, too. LOL

That's why you never see backroad signs peppered with buckshot, no sir.

shootin' signs is target practice. Shootin' shit off your friend's head is being stupid with a gun.
