funny, failed missile launch

i would either really shit my pants (I AM NOT JOKING) or just run my ass to base lol

thats the thing with war, were not really any good at it any more...

i think that the launcere needs fixin lol ;0

what makes you all think they are laughing at the missile? what if he turned the camera off and they were laughing at something else at some other place?

Pretty sure they're right on site, right after they've rolled away.  One of those "aw crap..." moments and happy they're not burnt by a delay in the rocket motor to ignite.

As a troop I've been on more than a few ranges where stuff goes wrong, it's dangerous as Hell, and me and my peers have avoided serious injury,...but instead of falling into a nervous fit you end up laughing instead. Relief of tension and suppose the natural reaction when you work around dangerous munitions all the time.

well if they were laughing at the end i think they might just be messing around for fun u know like army jokes cause i would do army jokes for fun

They were laughing because of a sudden increase in stress. Laughing is a way of releasing tension. They launched something that could easily explode and kill them all...and it failed. Danger was very apparent.

Actually Daishi they weren't in any danger of it exploding. The warhead doesn't arm until it reaches a certain airspeed so as to prevent an explosion if the launch is failed, just like this. Ofcourse anyone even armed with this knowledge would still run because that's just how people react to that stuff, but they certainly were in no danger.

Sorry, I'd read up on it from several sources, and none of them mentioned a safety mechanism. If there is one, then I agree that there was no actual danger...but having a missile fail to launch is still something that would scare me shitless. ;)

i would have shit my pants or had a heart attack lmao
