Stun grenade causes serious injury to photojournalist

[CPGKILLS]

I like fish

[111E982a]

Judge: Mr Smallman, what is your reason for appealing case no. 8545?

Guy: I am not happy that the court ruled that the police are not responsible for my injuries.

Judge: So you are gonna sue the police when you ran into a flashbang right in front of you?

[jamesunit19]

Flash out...

[ClickClackPLOWW]

what the fuck everywhere i go some dumbass always relate something to cod?

[anewell41]

Serious injuries to his but yet he can still run like hell?!? Bullshit

[xivid1234]

@anewell41

EARs?

[Mandolinpossum]

@anewell41 It took a pretty sizable chunk out of the back of his legs. There's a couple of photos of the wounds floating around the net. You'll notice after the explosion he's not running quite so well. I doubt he made it far once he got out of the line of fire.

You'd be surprised how much a human body can take when under the influence of adrenaline.

[shoopdawhooperful]

@anewell41 It's called adrenaline. I'm sure that you have never, ever been in a fight before, or else you would know that even if your opponent has broken all the bones in your legs, your body will still want to get youy out of there. That's why he is still running.

[ExternTrailer]

A stungrenade can't hurt anyone because there are no objects flying out the grenade. It just bangs and flashes, no fragmentation pieces. ;)

[xSBxUltrax]

@ExternTrailer

You're obviously not on the bright side. Any grenade can harm you. You can easily go deaf or blind from a flash grenade. I guess concussion grenades dont hurt people too, right? since they dont have frags... idiot.

[ExternTrailer]

@xSBxUltrax haha i'm an idiot.. Crazy FAG.

[jokerfacehro]

@ExternTrailer you talk shit. the blast wave destroys your lung if you are beside an explosion. some people already died cuz of flash bangs in france and swizz.

[GustavStonovic]

he has flackjacket pro

[Assassin9531]

@GustavStonovic FLAK JACKET PRO DOESNT DO SHIT TO STUN GRENADES! ITS TACTICAL MASK PRO! DAMN

[MojaveOutlander]

COD is for little kids where battlefield needs actually strategy, thats why you dont see comments from battlefield fans, they aren't 12 XD

[TeeeeJayH]

@MojaveOutlander

A comment like that followed by a 'XD' tells me that you aren't much older than 12 yourself, faggot.

[MojaveOutlander]

@TeeeeJayH well crying over the comment (like a bitch) shows how you ARE 12 for being offended dumbshit ;)

[snowyswag]

That was quite....stunning

YEAH!

[GhOsT102595]

omg, multikill!

[sourlemon83]

0:13 Well, fuck!

[ReachDeep1]

You throw flashbangs, we throw molotovs.

[SuperCrackhead5]

It was epic is slow motion.

[perreterecon]

@SuperCrackhead5 hope your ass gets burned someday

[sniper19901]

i guess even a professional photographer is stupid enough to tfuck with the police haha thats wat that fucker diserves haha

[rexsa66]

with all the thigs he's wearing no wonder he was the last one to escape

[MoneyMakerGoldTaker]

Should of used "Ghost Pro" perk... running out in the open is a sure way of getting flashbanged.

[Kownu]

@MoneyMakerGoldTaker Should pull your head out of your ass. You sound stupid making a joke about Call of Duty on something that actually happened.

[alxurs]

He should have tactical mask pro.

[Awesomenizzleness]

Tango on the catwalk........Tango down........Reloading Cover ME.

[JohnSmithTheSecond]

he knew the risks and dangers of taking pictures in that area.

[comanchio1976]

@JohnSmithTheSecond What the fuck are you talking about? It was a protest in a democratic country, not war-torn Afghanistan.

[DmitriRussian]

i thought we were worried about the guy that had a flashbang BLOW UP ON HIS HEAD

[helldevil555]

cause bruno mars didn 't catch that one...

[Gomes481]

what he shouldve done was jump and crouch, like if u get it

[Snacks4Scooby]

Why are you fucking morons PEACEFULLY PROTESTING!!? ITs getting yo know where. I have my guns ready, do you? Sooner or later, the police are going to start killing you .

[sneakyabcd]

if your still able to run then its not a serious injury.

[dogzbody64]

lol

[devilchris86]

yes, video games like cod impart the perfect reality.... stupid people!!!

[WHUno1]

I wouldn't want this to happen to my worst enemy. But as it's Guy Smallman........

[cmchfx]

They should have thrown a frag, nobody likes a hippie.

[iloupak]

what is COD anyways? isn't that fish?

[brunothealmighty28]

@iloupak haha yup

[iloveredalert3]

@iloupak yes,its a fish

everyone is talking about fish,pretty strange

[Decimator334]

I wonder if there are more comments from COd players about COD or are there more comments from anti-cod commenters?

[DoomEternal]

Look how the COD kids flock to a video because of something in a video game.

[benderbotx]

@DoomEternal I love all of the people who flock to videos like this to say what you just said. LOL, losers.

[XonionbreathX]

fuckin cops. Worlds largest street gang.

[LightScirbe]

the stun nades dont actually disorient people, it just goes bang

[thesillysock]

This wouldn't have happened if he had used flak jacket pro.

[xbon1]

@thesillysock You mean Tactical Mask Pro, Flak Jacket Pro just protects against explosives, and fire damage. Tactical Mask Pro protects against stuns, concussions, flashes, etc.

[thesillysock]

@xbon1 Lol, my bad. xD

[xxvallexxdaking]

0:21 why the cop let the flashbang detonate in his hand? lagger noob?

[thunderdragon14]

dat nigga dead

[TheBlueFourTwo]

nobody notice the cop with the flashbang explode in his hand right before that! you dont see him crying.

[anteracmacash]

thank you so mutchfor the fucking awesome slo-mo !!!

it looked like a scene from a movie :D:D

[jitzero]

serious injury my arse he would have a slight loss of hearing and maybe the caseing could of hit him but its a minor problem 

[Valyn66]

@jitzero How about you read the actual article? The guy sustained serious and permanent damage to his leg. Flashbangs are non-lethal but they're still like throwing souped up M80's at people. And those are illegal because...wait for it...they hurt people.

[ISIMPOI]

The police were NOT found responsible!!! Who the fuck was it then a magic fucking fairy!!!

[oiaughwea]

Disperse faster next time :(

[DkRallief]

Cop: 'Damn hitmarkers... =S'

[delgado4652]

He's an idiot for wanting to try to run with all that camera equipment on him. Shoulda just dropped it and ran, he can get it back after the cops stop being grenade-horny

[BackflipinBrandon]

Incoming FLASHBANG! +50

[livebrains]

he was so seriously injured that he managed to run away...

[2cool4uification]

@livebrains There is a little thing called adrenalin that is release into the human body under stressful condition which enable them perform incredible feat to escape the situation. Use your brain, real life isn't a video game.

[TheNozzman]

he didnt need a flashlight for that photo 0.0....

[parsleysprigs]

i'm sick of people making coment about call of duty. we should get some guns grenades and let them figure it out for themselves.

[zackhanscom]

i saw the photo of the leg. it was seared to the bone. once again, telephoto lenses, biatch. don't go running into the crowd like an idiot.

[serevent1234]

God what a noob should of had blast shield on :L and he's to slow- marathon and lightweight ;) should sort him out

[reuger2007]

flashbangs or stun grenades cause no harm. trust me i know first hand, as we use them in prison cells that are only 9x6 against inmates that are armed with weapons or are holding hostages, they only disorientate that person, by three means, the flash, the very loud bang, and the concusion.

this clown was never hurt other than shitting his pants!

[jeremyhall420]

Oh waa what a pussy that shit didnt hurt him. He just wanted money.

[chunxmkgee]

Can somebody tell me the difference between a flashbang and a stun grenade? And no mw2 bullshit answers.

[nelishoofd]

@chunxmkgee there is actually no difference, they are both flashbangs (could be different types of flashbangs are called stuns instead of flashbangs but as far as i know they are one and the same)

[MrCathal09]

@mrdannydave dunno why but I would love to try that for the experience lol.. as long as there were no permanent affects

[Sweetassour]

At least he wasn't another " journalist killed" headline.

[dodobrowner]

To the hippy this guy is a hero. To them it was like storming Normandy beach. Note to self- Stop being a dirty hippy and Dont fuck with the man.

[MultiMelonhead]

this was the outcome guys: tinyurl- 2cgk3vu

[uncrulez]

i dont think he got injured my cuzin had one go off right at his foot it just baarely burnt his boot

[IEatHarlots]

You're not supposed to be able to run after it goes off next to you. This guy is obviously hacking

[EternalHelios]

@IEatHarlots -.- nerd shit...

[IEatHarlots]

@EternalHelios Equally nerdy shit -.-

[blazinstoner]

@IEatHarlots lmao

[callofdutytuber]

@IEatHarlots lmaoooooooooooooo omg lol

[mrdannydave]

@LeviCoile No it's just for about five seconds. the guys probably OK right now

[Draxis32]

They shoot this thing against this small riot?It seemed that it didnt had not even 100 people in it, what a load of dumbshits.

[Igotpoond]

You retarded little brats. CoD YEAH YEAH EVERYTHIN IS LIKE THAT GAIMEZ

[Jake68955]

noobs got pwned :D

[HooligansDocumentary]

i love how everyone that plays COD thinks they are in the military

[IEatHarlots]

@HooligansDocumentary I love how everyone whose never held a gun before, but also never played COD, thinks they're somehow better than the COD nerds.

[jawanhale]

@HooligansDocumentary i am military! :(

[uncrulez]

@HooligansDocumentary i dont

[99bleeder]

@uncrulez well your a fag

[xbon1]

@HooligansDocumentary Because everyone that plays COD is in the military? DUH.

[99bleeder]

@HooligansDocumentary i am every day im actually in the jungle, been through nuketown a few times also ive even been to the deep alsakan discovery now on a black ops mission hoooooahhhhh lets get them bastards got my ak74u with a grip also got some stun grenades hopefully those bastards wont escape my claymores i lay down. Come get some bitch.

[koolpaul009]

@HooligansDocumentary were not? dam all my years of practice :)

[maarten848]

@HooligansDocumentary I play cod. And i am in the military

[fezza112]

@maarten848 What is your MOS?

[suineg1]

@HooligansDocumentary first of all this game prepares young guys from the poor U.S. cityes to serve in U.S.Army. So some of them will be in the military soon.

[DmitriRussian]

@HooligansDocumentary pretty sure they dont they just think they know about it

[fezza112]

@HooligansDocumentary That is so true haha. It's even funnier how they get most of the things wrong and then believe they are right.

[rubyspaceship1o1]

@HooligansDocumentary i play cod sometimes and ive been in marines for two years. games are boring tho idk why people spend like 70$ for a game.

[steviesteviesteviec]

@HooligansDocumentary i play COD on occasions and I don't think I am in the military. You clearly don't speak from experience. You just 'came up with that' on the spot. It explains nothing. Its rubbish. It's just another form of entertainment. Stop talking rubbish

[JRRingling004]

@HooligansDocumentary

i love how everyone that thumbs up your comment plays cod and thinks they are Military-Literate...

[CordedNX3]

would all the CoD people just shut up? please?

[laguitarrayotoco]

cod4 Yeah! :P

[Jduhbs]

I think whoever threw that stun nade had Danger Close Pro on

[jozed03]

lol

[keinerhatdennamen]

PENG :D

[aceterd]

that was one of the most kick ass slow motion scenes i ever saw

[BtFuTipsybaby]

lol thats what happens when your slower then everyone else ahahah

[SpeedVideoz]

good for these fuckers to learn

[ryguymlg]

wow what does it even do

[mrdannydave]

@ryguymlg the flash of light activates all light sensitive cells in the eye which would cause you to be blinded for aproximately 5 seconds. the bang would disturb the flluids in the ear, causing the person to go deaf. (hence the name flash = light and bang = deafness)

[tubedude1438]

yeah thats awesome, but normal flashbangs don't explode that much i think

[obeyance]

@tubedude1438

There is a difference between flash bangs and Stun grenades. Stun grenades make a bigger boom. Also known as a concussion grenade.

[headphones222]

having a concusison is not the same as being stunned, concussion grenades are employed as lethal weapons in rooms, flashbangs just stun., they are very loud, at aorund 180Db.

It is the equivalent of 2 shotguns going off at the same time in a room, if you shoot you will know THATS VERY LOUD!

[NYCsPLAYA]

@obeyance No.

[Jaymazing2point0]

@obeyance Yet another youtuber pretending to be the voice of authority when in fact he knows NOTHING about the subject he spouts his useless garbage about.

Stun grenades ARE flashbangs. The term flashbang is in fact a nickname for them, there are many different variations of the stun grenade but the core principle of bombarding a person's senses with light and sound in order to disorientate remains the same throughout.

Concussion grenades are MORE lethal than fragmentation grenades. Idiot.

[obeyance]

@Jaymazing2point0

Notice i didnt respond to the other guys correcting me? What makes you think that your anal retentive post will make any difference after i was already corrected? Obviously i understand and stand corrected as to the correct naming of the weapon. Thank you for being just another asshole that makes post on YT vidoes. And your right, my dislexic self was confused on the types (FB, Stun and Con.) A simple wiki search would have saved me, but thanks again for being an asshole.

[cr9527]

@obeyance

Uhh, a stun grenade = flash bang.

A concussion grenade is like the ones u find Germany used during WW2, the grenade on a stick. It has minimal shrapnel, but maximal shockwave. This is NOT a stun grenade.

[obeyance]

@cr9527 Im guessing you cant read either... Welcome to being the fourth person to correct me! Now... If you will look down the page a min till you find "Obeyance @" You will see that your comment was absolutely unnecessary...

[cr9527]

@obeyance

Ya... I don't care, I just felt like bashing people like you.

[obeyance]

@cr9527 I guess i deserve it... i do it myself like 20 times a day on here lol. But usually they are idiots and have no clue what the hell they are talking about... i was just confused, it happens.

[cr9527]

@obeyance

yes... idiots are bad...

Just like the one who made the video.

[jonnystel1]

LOL that retard shouldn't have been there.. ppl ask for this shit.. and they get it

[Styler441]

FUCK THE POLICE

[SolidWater0]

they didnt get disorientated like in games.

[Dragon22873]

They are GAMES.

[Muljika]

@SolidWater0 Because stun grenades are intended to be used in enclosed area or at least some crowded places, not open air. I think those are not stun nades; those are some serous pyrotechnics thrown or shoot by police to dispel those people.Flash or stun grenades are designed not to do any kind of destructive damage!They are designed to distract and temporarily incapacitate enemy.

[anden191]

@SolidWater0 Flashbangs don't make people distorientated outside

[SniffSnaff99]

@SolidWater0 its a reallife bug xD

[Pomme843]

@SolidWater0 Yeah, must be fake.

[victormania2008]

@SolidWater0 so that means those flashing effects are fake!

[mV33rs]

This is even more fun than fireworks lol

[Nicasi02]

nice police work. Dum rioters that think police have to fire roses and flowers in order to protect the law.

[Ramenking1]

Its a PROTEST!

But Geneva I don't think you are allowed to protest.

Anyways if they were then you are wrong. The police shouldn't have the right to break protests if such right exists in Switzerland.

[ztjone01]

o sht hes like y2k!!!!

[lifeflower1111]

Who are terrorists, eh? disgusting evil people...

[diverdrew]

He's just won his court case against the Police in Geneva. The police were firing AT people who were running away. Flash-bangs should never be fired AT anyone. They contain high-explosives...what is it that any of you morons think is so funny that makes the BANG ! The police had also been 'kettleing' the crown in the hope of provoking an outburst, which they got. It had been a fairly quiet demo until the police got 'heavy-handed'.

[BlueOceanBelow]

I'm not opposed to the use of non lethal (less lethal) weapons as alternatives, but if a department is going to use them, they should be held responsible if something goes wrong and someone, especially a non-target, DOES get injured by them. While they DO need to keep an advantage over others in order to do their job, they can't have free reign and no responsibilities. This photojournalist should have been fully compensated, though there really is no compensation for permanent injuries.

[thecuban1000]

can someone tell me what stun greandes do?

[LancerFIN]

These make so fucking loud noise that you get dizzy.

[BlazedNShot]

stun grenade temporarily blinds you and knocks your hearing out temporarily (make you hear buzzing noise) I'm pretty sure, correct me if I'm wrong

[lucifer79078]

No, thats about right, the bright flash blinds you, and the shockwave/noise disrupts the fluid in your ears, making you dizzy and temporarily disabling your ability to hear clearly.

[BlazedNShot]

Alright, thanks for clearing some up. only reason i know is because of call of duty 4, and modern warfare 2 ahaha.

[YouSunkMyFishy]

That's a flash bang grenade. There are different stun grenades. Some of which use pressurized gas and small spheres to stun people. However, those may only be used as static riot-control in prisons... I'm not sure.

[kevinf762]

yes they are only for use in prisons as they are to dangerous to use on protestors as they are innocents its illegal

[samn100]

Um stun?

[ronoj2]

LOL looks like a dramatic scene from a movie were the guy is running and the explosion is behind him!!

[rhinohelmes]

LOL!

guy at 0.11 gets his own grenade blown up right in his face:p

[lookinsideyourart]

Apart from the debate about injury....im more concerned about the legality of direct fire ?

Can anyone enlighten me on that ?

[delgado4652]

hahaha that's like something out of a movie, slow motion running, explosions all around, intense look on the face (i would guess) haha

[johnnyrook68]

haha yeah and it left a huge hole in his leg as well so funny.... :/

[Polenar]

are there pictures of his "serious" and "permanent" leg injuries?

because i dont buy it

[LordRambo]

stun grenades do produce heat and can set things on fire if used irresponsibly, but that's the least of his problems, with that many he would be lucky to ever hear again

[Polenar]

i know what stun grenades can do and its possible that he got burned or even injured from the blast but that is not a serious or permanent injury.

blowing his finger off would qualify as a serious and permanent injury...

[LordRambo]

if he was seriously injured there is no way to tell from this video alone

[Polenar]

my point exactly - thats why i wrote that i would like to see some pictures because in my opinion the stun grenade exploded too far from his legs to cause serious injury

[thefutureisnow]

Run Forrest RUN!!!

[spardagod233]

lol slow mo like a war movie our somthing. RRUUUUN!

[SwissPyro]

Thats what you get for messing with the swiss police

[blahdob]

Who'd have thaught something that explodes can cause injury?

[Rykershot101]

@blahdob who'd have thought you were smart enough to spell "thought"? not me..

[blahdob]

@Rykershot101 Who'd have thought YOU'RE A COCK SUCKING MOTHER FUCKER me thats who HAHAHA i'm so witty

Don't do crack kids

[Rykershot101]

@blahdob Yeah, you would think, too bad I'm not, sorry :) He's right kids, it makes people real stupid, take our buddy blahdob here for example!

[blahdob]

@Rykershot101 you are teh gay  you suck big black willy every day and guzzle salty cum

[jonee140]

@blahdob lol



[WestC0astking]

its raining stuns poor guy

[TheRealmDrifter]

0:40

His legs were left untouched by the explosion.

[magix93]

It infact ripped a hole in his leg

[TheRealmDrifter]

If you held a stun grenade close to you, even if it's only meant to make noise or smoke, the explosion, however small it seems, would still cause injuries.

But the journalist wasn't close enough to any of the explosives to experience injuries on the physical spectrum as far as its legs are concerned.

He could have turned deaf for a week, though.

[fures7331]

if he was standing there illegally then it's his own fault. + those grenades are made to not cause physical damage

[UntamedWalrus]

Not true. They are made not to cause lethal damage.

[JHW002]

lmfao that would suck

[harish2309]

what happened to the dude that had a flashbang burst right above his head lol

[goders69]

that report shouldn't sue the swiss government as he knew he was putting his ass on the line.

[Iseeyou67]

not responsible for his injuries? they just blasted the shit outta him..

[simplethunder]

Hahaha, he had it coming!
