He had all the time in the world to make the necessary calculation and correction. Also the shoe was hanging still and no wind. The perfect conditions for any sniper
Knowing that the coke was sprinkled directly onto the truck's step grate and seeing the dog sniff it directly reminded me of that time Brian from Family Guy got a job as a drug detection dog 🤣🤣🤣
His business of course. Mike probably could've easily taken those two out & raided the truck but then the cartel would be even more on the lookout for him with more muscle & would make any further attack risky. This action getting the law to do the job screens his involvement and costs Hector not only financially but his reputation with his bosses for failure. To be honest though when K9 units are used your chances of evading detection aren't good. All sorts of measures have been attempted to mask scent unsuccessfully. It's rather difficult to not get any trace of drugs outside packaging.
It's the same truck used for different scenes. It's easy enough to change the graphics on the side of the truck with modern stencil cut decals. It was probably the same truck when it met its fate getting multiple bullet holes when Mike enacted his countermeasure to the hijackers that were stealing the illegal drug product.

He shot the first few shots so that truck drivers won't speed up as soon they hear his shot (which would have been his first) so they think that he is the "hunters" and are slow enough for the flying coke to land on the truck, because the first few mg of what he shot was going to get scattered, because of wind and the bullets mometum.

We were returning from work in Mexico with a couple of Suburbans. As we approached the US checkpoint, my buddy in the other truck yelled out, “What’s that smell? I think it’s coming from that truck.” Well, they pulled me into secondary and I had to unload the entire truck as they searched it. Then I had to load it by myself, which was a real bitch. When I caught up to him, he wanted to know why it took so long? Real funny!!!
@@musclecarbear4704 With all the narcotics smuggling going on, I worried every time I crossed the border that someone I was working with might hide some drugs in my car for a buddy back in the states. 😬😬😬
Did he use the shoes to play with his granddaughter? For some reason he liked to involve her in his tools (toy pig, hose with nails, balloons, and enhancing his getaway by leaving her at the park).
20 miles of driving at highway speeds.. and the few milligrams of coke that *may* have landed on the truck would've been blown off by the wind/slip-stream. I know drug sniffing dogs are good at what they do, but I doubt even they could smell a single "grain" or two of cocaine stuck somewhere on a medium-sized truck - even a canine's nose has its limits and if there's nothing there (or only a truly minuscule amount), they wouldn't be able to pick it up. Or perhaps they're even trained to ignore minor amounts they might still pick up. Otherwise they'd be running after nearly every passer-by with cash in their wallet, because over 90% of bills in circulation have traces of cocaine on them - and I'd guess those are amounts detectable by chemical analysis, but not by a dog's nose, no matter how good it is. Look up "contaminated currency".

Mike was breaking bad before Breaking Bad started . His breaking point was when he had to murder Werner Ziegler, who ran away from construction site to meet his wife. For Gus this was too much of risk. .After that he had no way back to normal life as we saw him in season 1 when he was parking lot attendant and law abiding citizen even though he had some heavy baggage from Philadelphia . It is hinted that he was sniper in Vietnam before he became cop .He knew very well rifle US used in Nam.
Mike broke bad when he accepted his first bribe at some point during his career in law enforcement. Remember the talk he has with Saul in the desert about regrets? He says that if he could go back in time, he would go back and stop his son from being killed. Then he changes his answer to going back to day he took his first bribe. Mike knows that was the day the set things in motion for him to become embroiled in a life of crime, violence, loss and sadness.
Everyone talks about what a badass cool guy Mike is but this is one of many incidents that show Mike is a person with a completely arbitrary moral compass - he has just sent two cartel men he knows nothing about to prison - are they any more or less guilty than he is for their part in pushing drugs that ruin lives?
At this point in the show Mike isn't strictly speaking helping Gus sell or manufacturer drugs better. This is the first thing he's doing for Fring, and it's just sabotaging the competition. The men going to jail are in the game, they know the risk. You see why Mike can justify it. Of course over the rest of Better Call Saul you can see Mike continue to strip it all away, do things that assist Gus's interest and not that of the public. And eventually he is confronted by the fact that he couldn't rise to the man his son was, that for all his care and efficiency and want to minimize the harm he does, he's put his skills to something hollow and just like Jimmy he can't pull himself out.
I always wondered why he wouldn't just hide in a bush or ditch nearby and then dump the coke all over the truck while they were putting their guns away instead of risking himself missing a shot or them calling for backup.
He misses a shot - he fails with setting them up. They call for backup - he would be long gone or they would just assume him to be a decrepit old hunter. He tries to approach the truck - they might notice and kill him. What if only one guy goes to hide the guns and the other stays inside the truck or nearby?
@@kengetkamulos probably wanted it to look natural. If the cartel finds out that there was a call, they would instantly know that the Gus Fring's men are responsible.
@@kengetkamulos The truck itself had no actual drugs inside. Mike just needed the dog to detect something so that the ice cream store would be placed under investigation (which it was)
TV error: The weapon Mike is using is the M40 which is a bolt-action sniper rifle. The weapon is capable of utilizing a magazine for extra shots. But, from what I see, Mike is not using one which means he would have to manually insert a new round into the chamber after each shot. However, Mike is not doing that. He just pulls back on the bolt handle after each shot and a new round is in the chamber ready to fire. So where did those rounds come from if there is no magazine?
Even a little would likely be enough for the dog. And if regular dust sticks to the truck, it wouldn't be so bizarre for cocaine dust to as well. Or, at the very least, it would've stuck to the dust itself.
No. the second shot would only tell you the general direction where the shots were being fired from. For example, East. So if people were hunting to the east of you you could tell that. But it would not have had them staring towards Mike (who was concealed anyway).
More telling is amount he aims the gun in order to follow the walking men. To move the gun that much he would have to be something like 50 yards away from them 😅
0:35 look at the barrel size. It's a very low caliber rifle, maybe a .22, which makes sense because he's sooting targets, not elephants. A .22 has hilariously low recoil.
@@themac7915 everyone knows that (well.... they do since James Cagney complained about being fired at by a real machinegun during filmation of _Angels with Dirty Faces,_ but that's another matter...); the thing is that the OP complained of the lack of recoil (inherent to the use of blanks), most likely meaning it would be unrealistic, but *this particular weapon* seems to be of a kind for which that low recoil would *not* be unrealistic.
@@notfeedynotlazyIt's supposed to be an M40A1 in 7.62 NATO; But they probably use two versions, an airsoft model and a real one. The small, .22 sized hole one is probably the airsoft gun. You can see that in far shots, the barrel hole slightly gets bigger
It bothers me how he had a cheap death at the hands of Walter White. I get it, he was a criminal scumbag, yes, but you can write better more epic ways to kill a fictional badass. Like Gusavo's death. He totally deserved his fate but at the same time he achieved all of his evil goals: built a powerful legal and illegal bussines AND killed his enemies. Mike couldn't help his grandaughter and daughter in law as he always planned.
Reminded me of the Walking Dead, when Andrea shoots herself with a Colt Python revolver, but you hear a casing ejection hit the ground 😂🤦♂️ Sometimes they just add gun noises for no reason whatsoever. Lol
@@zeltroidNot for no reason. If you listened closely, you didnt hear the garand ping. You heard the echo of the en bloc clip flying off. Its to give the illusion that a case is ejecting out. Half of the sound effect is intentionally mixed out.
It's highly unlikely that you can raise a rifle up and down, firing while on top of a hill without being spotted, especially if you're not wearing a full ghillie. Unless he’s using subsonic ammunition, which would require you to get even closer, the sound of the bullet flying by will likely alert them.

As if cocaine dust would stick on that truck driving on windy desert for 20km more and still have enough for a dog to pick up on. Lol
Even a little would likely be enough for the dog. And if regular dust sticks to the truck, it wouldn't be so bizarre for cocaine dust to as well. Or, at the very least, it would've stuck to the dust itself.
This is what caused Nacho Varga to get killed, it was all Mike's fault.
Who does Mike buy his cocaine from?
He doesn't buy it. He robs a street dealer with his bare hands. It's not shown, but deep down, we all know that's probably how it went down.

The doctor in Mexico gets it for him

turn on the CC lol
The second shot you would know the exact direction it came from, so youd be staring towards mike
No. the second shot would only tell you the general direction where the shots were being fired from. For example, East. So if people were hunting to the east of you you could tell that. But it would not have had them staring towards Mike (who was concealed anyway).
You’ve played too much pubg
@@thenoobassassin they should've pinged him by middle clicking!
More telling is amount he aims the gun in order to follow the walking men. To move the gun that much he would have to be something like 50 yards away from them 😅
wtf is this some fortnite logic?
How come that rifle doesn't even have recoil 0:49
0:35 look at the barrel size. It's a very low caliber rifle, maybe a .22, which makes sense because he's sooting targets, not elephants. A .22 has hilariously low recoil.
@@notfeedynotlazy It's because they use blanks in television shows and movies.
@@themac7915 everyone knows that (well.... they do since James Cagney complained about being fired at by a real machinegun during filmation of _Angels with Dirty Faces,_ but that's another matter...); the thing is that the OP complained of the lack of recoil (inherent to the use of blanks), most likely meaning it would be unrealistic, but *this particular weapon* seems to be of a kind for which that low recoil would *not* be unrealistic.
@@notfeedynotlazyIt's supposed to be an M40A1 in 7.62 NATO; But they probably use two versions, an airsoft model and a real one. The small, .22 sized hole one is probably the airsoft gun. You can see that in far shots, the barrel hole slightly gets bigger
@1:29 The butt stock cartridge holder has centrefire cartridges in it. My guess is .308
Turn on the captions (Pizzas? Two sauce?)
Did the red shoes ever show up in Breaking Bad ?
Movie name please 🙏
Mike should play in Olympics
It bothers me how he had a cheap death at the hands of Walter White. I get it, he was a criminal scumbag, yes, but you can write better more epic ways to kill a fictional badass.
Like Gusavo's death. He totally deserved his fate but at the same time he achieved all of his evil goals: built a powerful legal and illegal bussines AND killed his enemies.
Mike couldn't help his grandaughter and daughter in law as he always planned.
I could have gotten the same risk with less result, but ok
Sure bud
It really isn't about you though .
Honestly , not everything is . . .

1:29 lol m1 garand ping
Reminded me of the Walking Dead, when Andrea shoots herself with a Colt Python revolver, but you hear a casing ejection hit the ground 😂🤦♂️ Sometimes they just add gun noises for no reason whatsoever. Lol
Lolol man good ear, j didn’t notice that 😂
@@zeltroidNot for no reason. If you listened closely, you didnt hear the garand ping. You heard the echo of the en bloc clip flying off. Its to give the illusion that a case is ejecting out. Half of the sound effect is intentionally mixed out.
That little bit of powder would be long gone after 20 miles. And they wouldn’t arrest anybody until they actually found drugs.
I think you may have an optimistic view of the Border Patrol's care for due process.
That music when dog smells meth !
It's highly unlikely that you can raise a rifle up and down, firing while on top of a hill without being spotted, especially if you're not wearing a full ghillie. Unless he’s using subsonic ammunition, which would require you to get even closer, the sound of the bullet flying by will likely alert them.
Why didnt he just use subsonics lol
Did those who hid things from Luna Lovegood go as far as going to New Mexico?

what the hell is wrong with this comments, it's like they've got stroke or something. Anyway, i could've got the same results with less risk, but ok
What was your plan bossman?
They are ignorant self obsessed commenters that just love talking about themselves online because everyone in the real world thinks they are cunts
Benefits of an attack helicopter i guess
@@mazi2801 Not subtle, impractical, and expensive. Mike achieved more while remaining undetected and for the cost of a few rounds and a pair of shoes.
Please name of the shoes ?
