For Every Shooting Derp There Is An Equal And Opposite Ricochet Derp

Skip to 0:25 seconds if you’re as impatient as I am:

Looks-Shopped-Tell-By-PixelsI’m assuming at the minimum, the wad bounced back… maybe some shot too though, who knows.  Not too bright!

Of course every video like this is filmed on a camera from the prohibition era, and there is very little other information to further analyze the derp.

Shopped? Real?  If you ask me, both the camera man and his reaction doesn’t seem fitting to what supposedly happened.  I think something like that normally at least warrants a “Hey (name), you all right?!”

  1. I’ve went pretty full derp with my S12 and it’s door breacher and the worst thats happened to me is getting a little shot in my mouth (yeah, I know how gay that sounds) and I ‘breached’ a can of peas once, got a pretty gnarly bruise on my leg from the pea-splosian but that was it, seems like it would be kind of hard to do what captain derp just did…

    and this is one of those anomalous moments which reinforces my desire to ALWAYS wear eye pro. I have a piece of birdshot stuck in my scalp due to a someone elses similiar derp moment.

      Joerg? Is that you? LOL ;)

  3. The sad thing? I know the guy who is in the “Shopped” image…

    1. Does he ride around the country in boxcars?

  4. Dat Stance…

  5. It’s a camera on a tripod with added camera shake post-production, that is not natural camera movement.

    So yes, this is entirely fake.

      Yeah, the way it was moving, I thought someone else was holding it, but then they didn’t ask if he was OK, and he had to walk back himself to turn it off. Then I wondered if it was hanging from string or something, because why would a fixed camera be moving?

      Your explanation makes more sense.

    look like just the wad came back at him

  7. My wad came back at me once, but that was a TOTALLY different situation.

    he was alone, he set up a tripod to film him derping around, he failed, thus no one was there to say, wtf were you doing.

  9. Would a wad have that much bounce? Maybe one of those rubber ball loads, or some other boutique ammunition?
