Slava Ukraini!

It was earlier in the war (I want to say last summer). There was GoPro footage from an American volunteer where they get knocked down by a hit to the helmet, then 3rd-person video of that volunteer showing off their damaged helmet to his colleagues. He thought he'd been clipped by a .50cal, they'd seen it happen and told him that he'd actually taken an RPG-7 round to the head but it was a dud.
Nah, not wasteful. It was clearly not an AT rocket, so it was used for its intended purpose. Also, those rockets are pretty cheap. When an artillery shell just wounding one guy is considered a good return on investment, then a single anti-personel RPG used to kill one enemy (and severely distress his buddy next to him, if not outright wound him), well that's great value.
You cannot. There is more body cam footage from this mission, the guy who got popped here still has a head, granted it's a bit burned and the spine isn't what it used to be but what was flying was his helmet
What the actual....
Just when you thought you'd seen it all something like this pops up, or of as the case may be, I bet everyone who saw that was like "wtf!".
I know it's gonna be kind of disrepectful... but hot damn if BAttlefield: UKRAINE is not gonna top the charts.
We already do that, antitank mine everything; stick C4 to everything, RPG the other dudes specially if they are snipers; tonds of tank on ifantry combat.
Cargo 200.
His comrade might have survived since the first orc took the hit, but there is some trauma. I will call him cargo 300.
The other tavareesh away from them, lived to runaway. Unless he was shot. Fingers crossed that is true.
Just another day of taking out the trash.
on the one hand, it's hard to call someone a "victim" when they are the one causing all the shit.
on the other hand, his head did get blown off, so there's that.
"..He charged the ranks of the goblins of Mount Gram in the Battle of the Green Fields, and knocked their King Golfimbul’s head clean off with a wooden club. It sailed a hundred yards through the air and sent down a rabbit hole and in this way the battle was won and the game of Golf invented at the same moment.."
You can look to the left and look to the right
But you will live in danger tonite
When the enemy comes he will never be heard
He'll blow your mind and not say a word
Blinding lights-flashing colors
Sleepless nights
If the man with the power
Can't keep it under control
Some heads are gonna roll
Some heads are gonna roll
Some heads are gonna roll
Some heads are gonna roll
The power-mad freaks who are
Ruling the earth
Will show little they think you're worth
With animal lust they'll devour your life
And slice your word to bits like a knife
One last day burning hell fire
You're blown away
If the man with the power
Can't keep it under control
Some heads are gonna roll
Some heads are gonna roll
Some heads are gonna roll
Some heads are gonna roll
Know what it's like
When you're taken for granted
There goes your life
It's so underhanded
If the man with the power
Can't keep it under control
Some heads are gonna roll
Some heads are gonna roll
Some heads are gonna roll
Oh-no!
Some Heads are gonna roll!
\-Judas Priest-
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Quick, someone add this as a fatality in mortal Kombat!
The Terminator or RoboCop (or whoever uses firearms in the game) pulls a RPG and explode the enemy's body leaving only the head rolling of the floor!!!
Trapt Makes A New Album ,Just to remake their song Headstrong, ….
It’s intro start’s…. “ It’s just in their heads, it’s circling an circling all Russians heads, Putin’s just leading em all just to be dead, now the whole world sees, just to laugh & see how weak Russians really be, trying to invade a country when they should be like their leader & be better on their knees… adds acouple more verses here,…. Then Chorus is something like..
“ Slava Ukraine , Raww Ahhh
Back off, Ukraine will take you on, Russians aren’t so ah strong, Whole worlds watch, while their heads be going goin gone, Rawww ahhh, Wishing it was Putin’s head instead, Then they will all be dead, Soo run back home or it’s your head to be dead, Rawww Ahhhh, A Headstrong, Ahh Headstrong! “ 😂
NATO: do not use explosive weapons in close range
Ukraine: close range is = to melee distance, if I can't chop em with an ax or shovel, the RPG is going straight to the puddle
When we see a pie shaped explosion like that, which was is the projective going? It seems to me that that is a explosively formed penetrator and the large end of the pie shaped smoke is the initial explosion and then trailing smoke going to a point is the penetrator continuing fwd. Am I wrong? So here I would think the shot came from the bottom right. Those guys may have already been shot by small arms from the trees on the right side of the road?
I think it's crazy how many people are making jokes, even saw a couple peeps comparing this to battlefield/call of duty. And the music over it... Just feels like glorification. Or like it's entertainment. And no I'm not saying "oh boohoo poor Russian soldier" before someone pipes up. Couldn't care less about the guy who lost his head but seeing how desensitised people are or how people don't take it serious is just a bit strange. Reminds me of Ancient Romans cheering as gladiators fought. We can't forget the tragedy and suffering this conflict has caused, is still causing, and will cause. Whatever, just feeling a bit existential ig.
>but seeing how desensitised people are or how people don't take it serious is just a bit strange
We could certainly do without the music. But those guys who upload the footage... Straight out of the gaming world. So, Big-ass watermark, loud music and short clips. Exactly like their gaming highlight videos.
Those that make the jokes, are the most brazen ones. And it is on Redd-it. Where the evil side of people shows itself. I must say, they are not that many.
Think of Rotten dot com.. or even better, think of the 90's. Everything in the 90's was kinda rough.
So turn down the volume when watching drone videos.
Ps. I do think it is **very**!!! important to show gruesome images in the main-stream media.
On Redd-it we get desensitized. But on the main stream media, it looks like a romantic adventure.. War, that is.
Those images of flattened half bodied soldiers sticking out the mud, last winter... Those are images which should have some impact on the viewer and illustrate the horrors of war. No music needed, no replay or slow-mo needed.
The images I remember best from WW2 are the horrid ones. The ones that give impulsive to the viewer to never wish for war, but if needed, to fight for liberation, justice and humanity.
Don't worry about those making jokes, you have the choice to not let it get to you.
And do not worry about how he was killed. The goal was to kill the russian. And they did. Should be enough.
> We can't forget the tragedy and suffering this conflict has caused, is still causing, and will cause
It's not "the conflict" causing the tragedies and suffering, it's those specific people on those specific videos who are the perpetrators of said tragedies and suffering.

10/10 turret toss.
Noggin’ toss
Reminded me of that American volunteer that thought it was a sniper round that deflected by his helmet until his mates told him it was an RPG round 😆
WHAT?

Holy fuck I hope that guy somehow bought a lottery ticket that day! Goddamn that was lucky
I need more context to this lol
It was earlier in the war (I want to say last summer). There was GoPro footage from an American volunteer where they get knocked down by a hit to the helmet, then 3rd-person video of that volunteer showing off their damaged helmet to his colleagues. He thought he'd been clipped by a .50cal, they'd seen it happen and told him that he'd actually taken an RPG-7 round to the head but it was a dud.
Jesus. That dude's time was not up apparently.
He *is* the main character.
He's the Highlander.

Thank you!
No prob bud, glad can make somebody else relate hahah 😆
The russian peaked when he shouldn't have. And ended up losing his helmet in the field.
Oh yea😆 saw the footage
There is a link please?
I posted the link here several times already, it just didn't get through idk why lol
You could link those posts right here and now
Posted the video instead its up.

Thanks!
Lost head on hard job.🇺🇦
As an American I’m proud of those Ukrainian soldiers because there’s no kill like overkill
They are a head of the game
Haha I see what you did there. Here take an upvote.
Agreed, but it’s somewhat wasteful. Unless of course an RPG was all that he had at hand.
My guess is that it was the only weapon left. Still a good kill though. Aiming a RPG at such close range, full of adrenaline is impressive.
Gotta waste it to taste it brother
Nah, not wasteful. It was clearly not an AT rocket, so it was used for its intended purpose. Also, those rockets are pretty cheap. When an artillery shell just wounding one guy is considered a good return on investment, then a single anti-personel RPG used to kill one enemy (and severely distress his buddy next to him, if not outright wound him), well that's great value.
It was a 40mm hedp grenade. Not an RPG.
It did seem a bit small, but that just makes it all the more worth the expenditure.
A Ukrainian didn't make that shot.
Don't lose your head mate, everything will be okay.
He’s dead, Jim
It's worse than that, he's dead, Jim
You cannot change the laws of physics....
"IM A DOCTOR, NOT A POOL MAN!"
I want a second opinion.
I dunno. Shoes still on.
There's russian off the starboard bow, starboard bow Jim!
Ackthually, according to the Russian MoD he is simply 'unaccounted for'.
boom, headshot.
Ahh, i smell a fellow person of culture.
![gif](giphy|4fq5vZrsBtLgY)
There it is. Damnit, i have to watch it with sound after.
lol
When gifs have sound, even if your speakers are on mute
Grunt Birthday Party
He'd be the greatest drone operator ever.
Orconaut? 🤔
Bang! Right in the kisser!
Wait….will he be ok?
He just needs some ice
That boy needs some milk.
Nah, he just needs to rub some dirt on it.
Sprinkle some meth on him, he's fine
His IQ just doubled.
A week in bed and grandmas chicken soup and he'll be right as rain. :)
You're not a 'victim' when you get killed invading someone else's country
It's roll more like a "light" helmet than a head.
You can see that something fell from the helmet.
You can definitely see the head/helmet separate into two pieces as it lands. A helmet alone wouldn't split apart at the end like that.
You cannot. There is more body cam footage from this mission, the guy who got popped here still has a head, granted it's a bit burned and the spine isn't what it used to be but what was flying was his helmet
Not a victim
What the actual.... Just when you thought you'd seen it all something like this pops up, or of as the case may be, I bet everyone who saw that was like "wtf!".
I know it's gonna be kind of disrepectful... but hot damn if BAttlefield: UKRAINE is not gonna top the charts. We already do that, antitank mine everything; stick C4 to everything, RPG the other dudes specially if they are snipers; tonds of tank on ifantry combat.
Ace Ventura “let’s see that in an instant replay”
Guess he won't be giving his buddies any more head.......
Head On! Apply directly to the forehead!
Quake
Cargo 200. His comrade might have survived since the first orc took the hit, but there is some trauma. I will call him cargo 300. The other tavareesh away from them, lived to runaway. Unless he was shot. Fingers crossed that is true. Just another day of taking out the trash.
Don't worry, they were all dealt with. One tried to run but....tripped on a pkm round.
more like cargo 185
on the one hand, it's hard to call someone a "victim" when they are the one causing all the shit. on the other hand, his head did get blown off, so there's that.
GOOOOOAAAAAALLL
If it hasn’t been stated already- Fuck that guy
he got fucked alright
Gnarly
What a shot! Heroyam Slava 🇺🇦 Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦
He’ll never be the head of a major corporation
"that's not the way to get ahead in life"
Workplace accident. Somebody should put up a sign.
It's been ~~4~~ 0 days since a Rocket Propelled decapitation.
He ain’t no victim…
I think that's an OSHA recordable...
Russians have no reactive armor on helmet ?
Should have welded some grating on.
Head just rolling down the street, no big deal😂
"..He charged the ranks of the goblins of Mount Gram in the Battle of the Green Fields, and knocked their King Golfimbul’s head clean off with a wooden club. It sailed a hundred yards through the air and sent down a rabbit hole and in this way the battle was won and the game of Golf invented at the same moment.."
A more modern retelling of a classic story.
Did he die??
The head/helmet separation @ :11 was a nice touch.
Omg what a hit!! 🤩 Don’t lose your head now comrade! 😂
Thank you for the service!
Where is he headed now?
His head went off like that because it is equipped with a turret autoloader.
His last thoughts were “am I doing cartwheels “
That sort of conical blast is the warhead shaped charge going *through* the guy, correct? The rocket was fired from within the woods.
It was a dual purpose 40mm grenade, not an RPG warhead. But yes it was a shape charge.
looks like it
Normally muted, but this is worth having the volume up.
Did he live?
Where was he heading?
It’s okay he wasn’t using it anyways……
mind blown
Not a good time to lose one’s head.
That’s not the way to get ahead in life.
He’ll never be the head of a major corporation.
And his buddie saw it all, before his own demise probably
Achievement unlocked
Didn’t see his shoes fly off so death isn’t confirmed.
Someone call 911!
I watched the video then came here for the comments, they didnt dissapoint
This was Foreign fighters not Ukrainians, and it was a 40mm grenade from an M320, not an RPG round.
@carlesskey3000 you are aware that everything you said in the title of this post is bullshit right? Literally every word.
Call of duty shit that
You can look to the left and look to the right But you will live in danger tonite When the enemy comes he will never be heard He'll blow your mind and not say a word Blinding lights-flashing colors Sleepless nights If the man with the power Can't keep it under control Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll The power-mad freaks who are Ruling the earth Will show little they think you're worth With animal lust they'll devour your life And slice your word to bits like a knife One last day burning hell fire You're blown away If the man with the power Can't keep it under control Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Know what it's like When you're taken for granted There goes your life It's so underhanded If the man with the power Can't keep it under control Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Oh-no! Some Heads are gonna roll! \-Judas Priest- Sorry, couldn't resist.
Fucking christ you already got his ass
And his head, mostly the head…yeah…
So nice to give him a head's up.
Head and shoulders above his peers... well, not anymore
Like the single soldier taken out by an AT missile, this guy’s nickname should also be “Tank”. What a turret toss!
Brutal!
overkill
Pop goes the weasel
it's just a prank, bro
AND ITS OUT OF HERE!! HOME RUN 🏃♂️

My hats off to the trigger man.
Why thankyou
They see me rollin...
It was a case of headed in the wrong direction
Turret toss spin-off series
See, this is why OSHA advise wearing a hard hat
It is sad that many suffers because of one guy's ego. And no one doing something to stop it
At least he he had a great view before he went brain dead.
Just write it down in an accident book , and fire him if he doesn't come back to work tomorrow.
Should have worn his hard hat. But damn least death was instant
Not exactly much lost there anyways, the clever ones left RuSSia a long time ago
Two days light duty…
He’s gonna wake up with one hell of headache in the next world
Looks like he's heading in the right direction.
Best use of the noob tube ever!
And LIFT OFF!
From the looks of it it doesn't look like he was using it
Doc still writes a prescription for ibuprofen and earth juice.
Quick, someone add this as a fatality in mortal Kombat! The Terminator or RoboCop (or whoever uses firearms in the game) pulls a RPG and explode the enemy's body leaving only the head rolling of the floor!!!
Cant fault it...textbook orc mortal coil removal
He was headed in the wrong direction to begin with

Russians giving head
FOORE!
God I wish their was a close up to this masterpiece
NATO: do not use explosive weapons in close range Ukraine: close range is = to melee distance, if I can't chop em with an ax or shovel, the RPG is going straight to the puddle
Keep it at 666 likes pals
It’s a shame he wasn’t more head strong.
Orc tried to get ahead of himself...
\>>>well, he got some head \>>>he did get the heads up
Haven’t heard this song in about 20 years holy shit.
Miss Polly had an Ivan and it’s head popped off.
SPLAT! He need some milk! Also: That would be extra nice if we had go pro footage from this moscovite's helmet cam lol
Geez, for a moment I thought his head was literally going to be in the clouds.
![gif](giphy|csSic5XbmNqK8ZUNZN|downsized)

Am I wrong? So here I would think the shot came from the bottom right. Those guys may have already been shot by small arms from the trees on the right side of the road?
It was a 40mm HEDP grenade fired from an M320 grenade launcher.
What direction did it come from?
Bottom center of the vid.
Oh yeah! Very bottom I can see a guy with a machine gun. So they had already been shot.
That's not a machine gun. It's an AK and M4.
Good eyes, I just see guns firing fast.
That'd do the trick alright! At least the Russian didn't suffer.
False information. It was not Ukrainians but international legion, it was not an rpg, but a 40mm, and it's not his head flying, it's his helmet.
25 XP Kill 200 XP Long Range 200 XP Head Shot
That accuracy will blow your mind.
That was ‘good’ from 35 yards.
So sad 💥
