Russian Shoots Guy In Face On Subway; Just Another Day In Russia

 

DailyMail: A security camera has captured a suspected racist shooting on the Moscow metro as two men armed with handguns attacked a dark-skinned passenger. Two men sit on the underground train in the Russian capital when a fellow passenger travelling in the same carriage attracts their attention. One of the attackers nods to the other, whispers something, and then both draw guns in the vicious assault which was caught on footage obtained by Life News, a major Russian media outlet. The younger one uses a ‘traumatic hand gun’ to shoot into the abdomen of Khashim Latipov, 30, from Dagestan, a region in the Caucasus region of southern Russia. He kicks him and shoots again, putting the gun at the man’s head, as other passengers flee to the far end of the carriage. The two men then turn their backs on the victim but keep threatening their victim with guns until they flee the train at Nagornaya station. Faces of both attackers are caught by the security camera in the November 17 incident. Miraculously, Lapitov survived the attack but is seriously wounded. ‘The IDs of the shooters are not known yet, we are searching for them,’ a law enforcement source told Life News. ‘The victim was taken to the hospital, with one bullet in his jaw and serious damage to his face.’

 

Yea those passengers sure did look terrified. Couldn’t be more casual as if this happens twice a day. And what the hell is a ‘traumatic hand gun’ where you can shoot someone and they don’t die? I need me one of those.

Russian Subway Accepts Squats As Payment For Riding

 

You know what the sad part about this is? The line for the real MTA machine would still be 20 people deep because that’s the way Americans are. Fat, selfish, lazy assholes who in almost 2014, expect everything to get done for them without having to lift a finger. Plus it’s NYC so I’m sure the ticket booth would demand at least 50 squats just because. Good luck getting people like this guy to do 5 squats without their knees snapping.

I Think This Russian Van Was Trying To Go To Space; Almost Succeeds

In case the video gets pulled down CLICK HERE

 

By now I’m already sick of seeing the Miguel Leg Drop so I’m not even going to bother posting it. Besides, this is way better anyway. I’m pretty sure stunt crews from Hollywood couldn’t pull off a jump more spectacular than this. The pure physics of that van getting that much height and distance through the air is mind boggling. Happy Monday!

And Now For Your WTF Video Of The Week

 

Pretty sure this dance is the only way Russians get the sun to come out. I remember doing something similar to this in my friends out-ground pool growing up to create a whirl effect but can you imagine this many people doing it?! I have to admit the beat is pretty sick and how long do we give it until Kanye remixes it? Can anyone explain what the fuck is going on here?

Meteorite Crashing Through Earth’s Atmosphere Looks Scary As Hell

FOXNews: The meteor explosion over Russia that injured more than 500 people and damaged hundreds of buildings was not caused by an asteroid zooming close by the Earth Friday afternoon, a NASA scientist says. NASA asteroid expert Don Yeomans, head of the agency’s Near-Earth Object Program Office, told SPACE.com that the object which exploded over a thinly inhabited stretch of eastern Europe today was most likely an exploding fireball known as a bolide. ‘It pancaked and exploded.’ said NASA asteroid expert Don Yeomans. More than 500 people were injured, mostly by glass cuts when windows shattered during the blast, according to the Russian Emergency Ministry. “If the reports of ground damage can be verified, it might suggest an object whose original size was several meters in extent before entering the atmosphere, fragmenting and exploding due to the unequal pressure on the leading side vs the trailing side (it pancaked and exploded),” Yeomans told SPACE.com in an email. “It is far too early to provide estimates of the energy released or provide a reliable estimate of the original size.” Yeoman stressed that the bolide event was likely not associated at all with the incoming asteroid 2012 DA14, which will fly within 17,200 miles of Earth when it passes safely by our planet today.

 

To be clear, the videos above are a different meteorite and not the one that will miss Earth this afternoon.

So as a lot of people know, an asteroid is supposed to “shave” the Earth’s atmosphere this afternoon and become the closest asteroid to pass Earth ever. Bill Nye the Science guy even said if it were to hit Earth that it would wipe an entire city, such as New York, right off the map. That being said, imagine being in Russia and on the same exact day you see this thing shooting across the sky and you think welp, this is it! Then BAM! The ground shakes, windows shatter, and you just look at the person next to you and say it’s been real.

This kind of shit absolutely scares the shit out of me. You can’t run anywhere, no time to cross anything off your bucket list, and the only positive about it is probably how quick you’ll die. Seeing this video just proves that the movie depictions aren’t that far off and to think that this is just a meteorite! An asteroid makes this thing look like a pebble. So if anyone else is interested in watching this thing blaze past us, check out this website at noon.
