She didnt fuck up. In grenade launcher training, they use these inert rounds filled with orange chalk. They're pretty flimsy, and do this occasionally. Sometimes the blow apart in the launcher, so it just spews a bunch of cheeto dust out the end.
Her slow react I was 100% a “FuckUp”..Nice try but, No Shit it Malfunctioned..But She Malfunctioned because of the Malfunction..That’s the ENTIRE point 😂😂😂😂
@0Logan05 as an ex grenadier she did nothing wrong 😂 she shot the 40mm and it went off too early, so she kept her finger off the trigger and kept it pointed down range until further instruction. 2 each unit had different SOP's so how do you know what her SL want her to do? What exactly did YOU want her to do? 🤔
@0Logan05 She's in training. There was a round malfunction and she looked to her superior for orders on top of putting the gun on safety before moving back. I'd say that's pretty damn good. Strong men don't shit on women.
This isn't a DS talking, it's a weapons instructor. We're a different breed. There's a time and place for the yelling, but in a lot of situations a clam, firm voice is a lot more productive
this is why the swedish military stepped away from the Shouty Officer. Study after study shows it to be a ineffective method of training troops. Calm and reasonable beats screaming and mad every day.
There is however a massive amount of shit talkin’ that happens at the range 😂 “Shooter target number __ it time to go to medical and get a new porthole prescription because YOU HIT THE BEEEEEERM!!!”
This gotta be the calmest drill sergeant I've ever heard. I could swear that years ago, mine was screaming so hard that he wouldnt even be allowed to pull out the "your hear-loss is not service related" card. 😂
She's not using a standard issue shirt, and she's not using basic training issue boots. I'd go so far as to say it's an instructor, not a drill sergeant.
@@LyneaSilverit's a drill sergeant or range cadre, and basic training or OSUT are both vastly different than they were a decade ago. Softer. Much much softer.
For those who don’t understand the training grenade or the launcher itself malfunctioned. Do you see the smoke? the training grenade blew up like 5 feet in front of her the shrapnel from a real Grenade can kill you at that distance. That was the malfunction at that angle it should’ve went atleast 40 feet in front of her if not more.
@@Antondoesntimjoking your clearly an idiot that understands nothing about weapons. That’s the point she pulled the trigger and the weapon or the grenade malfunctioned. That pinkish smoke should’ve been atleast 7 car lengths in front of her. Point is if that was a real life scenario she would’ve died. You people keep saying she pulled the trigger like that means anything but it doesn’t you morons.
It’s a chalk round, they don’t explode. The casing probably had a crack in it that’s why it it did that. Carry some for long enough and you will have that chalk everywhere. Also 40mm have to rotate a certain number of times before it arms. Near impossible to detonate in the air that close. No one here was in any danger.
@@Antondoesntimjokingexcept that you likely have a lack of reading comprehension, OP unmistakably spent a good ¾ of their comment explicitly on the grenade... Doesn't seem to be "most likely [...] what he meant"
@@p0lzs Legally? No, it's classified as a Destructive Device in the US as per 26 USC § 5845(f): "...any type of weapon by whatever name known which will... expel a projectile by the action of an explosive or other propellant, the barrel or barrels of which have a bore of more than one-half inch in diameter..." It's a designation given to devices that are firearm-like but need additional regulation and are significantly more controlled.
To clarify: unlike a gl0ck or AK that is a grenade LAUNCHER as in it’s meant to LAUNCH the grenade. YES she pulled the trigger BUT the malfunction is that the “grenade” (chalk filled round) “exploded” right out of the barrel, which in a real launcher = instant death
He was calm and told her what to do. Wen to paintball once, my gun started shooting by itself, didn't know what I should do, so I put it on the ground and waited for it to run out of ammo. Sounds silly, as they're not that dangerous, but they do sting.
@@KevinIIbrown That's why they do training, so they react faster in real life. Also, you refuted nothing the OP said, she _was_ calm and did everything she was told promptly. So you can just take a nice sip of STFU.
Glad someone explained. I had no idea what she had in her hands. Back in my day ( Insert between dinosaur and now joke ) it was either a grenade or a M203, and that looked like neither. Fun fact.... Smoke grenades could be chained together with CS gas grenades to make colored CS gas. Fun Fact 2 : Copters suck air in from underneath. Do what you will with that info, I know I sure did.
Damn I got out in 1998. We had the M203. We were just get m240G but we're using the M60 tripod. The Army made an adapter to hook to the m240g which broke within a day or two of firing instead of getting the right tripods. So you had two m240g without a tripods. Smart integration
I got to fire the M203 and the M320 in training when I was in, joined 2009. When the 320 isn't mounted on an M4 it's a weird weapon to fire. If I remember right, you swing it open like a door on a hinge to load it.
Though very unlikely it’s possible that a live round could prematurely detonate right out the barrel due to it being faulty, however if that does happen I’m sure she wouldn’t exactly have had a choice but to hit the deck.
Because it’s a woman. Our military is losing integrity because they are now forced to cater to unqualified individuals, such as women. Women do not belong anywhere near a battlefield except as nurses or secretaries.
In the Marine Corps this exact this happened to me, one of the instructors (at least 100lbs heavier) tackled my 130 pound self to the ground, I was to stunned to speak wondering if the man was fucking with me or saving my life 🤣🤣🤣
My husband is 11B, and it happens that using blanks can cause weapons to malfunction. But what is important is that soldiers follow proper gun safety and clear their weapons correctly. Recently, there was an incident on base after EIB range qualifications. During evening formation, a young E3 thought it was a good joke to take another dudes rifle, unclick the safety, and fire the weapon. He did that and blank fire out. The weapon was not clear properly. In addition, the graders at the range didn't properly check to make sure the weapon was cleared. This incident happened in front of Srgt.Major. This incident was considered a misfire. You could be stripped of your rank. The srgt. Major decided not to strip these soldiers of their rank but no longer could participate in EIB and were given extra duty. A few years back, my husband had an incident with a private fresh out of boot camp. They're were practicing line drills and playing war games. The 1st srgt at the time told them to go into line formation. Almost everyone in this squad is an E4 and an E5, including my husband. The private was the only one of low ranking. Instead of following in line, he stepped behind my husband. When 1st segt order them to shot. The private was shooting blanks into the back of my husband helmet. My husband felt and heard it, and before he could react. The 1st srgt slamed the private into the ground. The other soldiers took notice and grabbed for the privates M4. That private got an ear full from my husband and the 1st srgt and was given extra duty and was taken off the lanes. When asked why he did it, the whole thing wasn't done out of malice. The private was just nervous and didn't think about where or who he was aiming at.
Man, I think I have too much safety discipline, I put the gun on safety every millisecond that I’m not shooting. While my papa leaves guns fully loaded, no safety 😀
@@raymondguerra8133Sir do not be alarmed, you have found the joke. This joke maybe unrecognizable due to your past actions or thoughts of other jokes. Please back away 50 feet slowly
nah i agree with philly pharmer ur comment is dumb and useless its like ur implying that because they are 17 and 18 year olds that a malfunction in a gun was caused by them which makes 0 sense u should think about ur life and where it has led you with these stupid thoughts@@loncho5079
Well, does this mean you are now a male non-veteran. I understand how someone can be a “former female”, but how come you are also a “former” veteran? Did you reenlist? Did you reenlist as a male the second time? I’m a former kid. A former teenager. I was formerly in my 20’s & 30’s & soon I will be able to say I was formerly in my 40’s.
What does this have to do with her being a female ? Could be it be that she wasn't told what a malfunction looked like ? You can't blame someone for not knowing something they were't told.
Believe it or not but grenade launchers are actually idiot proof. It takes a couple of rotations of the grenade for it to arm. So if you accidentally shoot it at your feet it will not go off.
@@chris77jay77 Yeah ive had chalk rounds crack just sitting in my bag, and if you shoot them they are gonna spray the chalk out the barrel. Also even if it was a 40mm HE round it wouldnt have mattered if it landed a few feet away becuase it wouldn't have armed itself.
It is just a Cheeto puff round, have had that happen plenty of times and we just laugh and load more rounds and continue, not like there was any danger
Sergeant was calm as he did not want her to panic and possibly hurt herself or someone else. His attitude probably changed after the incident was neutralised. Amen to my Master Sergeant.
With respect, you have that backwards. Being calm is best only when you have no reason to be concerned for safety. The opposites of calm is crucial if safety is at all important to you. Urgent situations require urgent reactions. Anything less is tantamount to wanting the situation to be made worse.
@@BolanOfLifeYea but if u are stressed u are more likely to make stupid decisions. Stay calm react fast not stress urself out and make trash decisions
@@BolanOfLife you don't understand how people function. if you aren't calm or are freaking out during a malfunction or in an urgent situation you are way more likely to get injured or make a decision that could have consequences
A cheap training shell exploded the moment it left the barrel, that's not supposed to happen. Instructor was chill about it and everyone handled it well.
It still discharged why back up lol the boom part has already happened if anything hold it pointing down range for a min on a miss fire but it did discharge
if a projectile has already misfired, its unpredictable, could have a secondary detonation depending on the round, and why stand in the smoke? Highly unlikely though, instructor was probably just following protocol and never had it happen before.@@headhunter257
@@headhunter257its gas (edit so people stop telling me its chalk) its not gas its chalk my bad, regardless its still toxic and you dont wanna breathe it in
@@usaf1804In a real war the 40mm wouldn't have blown up. They're rotation fuzed, they only explode upon impact when they reach a certain amount of rotations outside the barrel. The instructor thought them the correct way to respond to that. keep that launcher pointed in a safe direction and fuck off from there as far as you can. It might not have blown up on impact but it's still a live HE round infront.
Had one guy in basic training decide he's gonna put his finger in the trigger well BEFORE picking it up, as soon as he tried to pick it up it fired before he was given the command to, Drill Sergeant went off on him.
@@yimmy7160that has little to do with what he is saying. When I was in boot camp it was extremely tense 24/7 so you would always IMMEDIATELY respond with intensity and focus. They are being too laid back in the video so she responds like she could care less.

@mentoska7427 looks to me like you've never seen chalk rounds before. That is something that happens from time to time. For whatever reason, the round just pops in the barrel instead of launching.
I think it was actually a stab at the fact the trainee is a female and "can't fire" the weapon properly. My speculation is The person posting clearly had no knowledge of training tools used and potential malfunction which is why the instructor is not correcting her because she didn't actually do anything wrong the training launcher malfunctioned.
It’s more of bc the other person went to go get another round to load it, and it took the instructor like 5 times of “back up” for her to finally let the weapon go
@@Rusty_Rat_Huntsmanin fairness it looked like it was going to fall and she was making sure it didn't. She started to let go and then took up the weight again

@@ShiverMeTimbr Not really. It blew up immediately. If a real grenade malfunction the same way she would be toast no matter what. If it didn’t malfunction it would have just went down range
You got… the dust cover still on the barrel when you pulled the trigger. That’s what broke the plastic seal on the end of the training grenade, setting it off immediately.
A live grenade wouldn't have armed until traveling 7 to 10 meters (combat round) or 20 to 40 meters (training HE rounds) The chalk rounds used here don't use explosives to creat their cloud of smoke, just impact against something....
If it was a real life scenario he wants them to think clearly instead of thinking about just another drill Sargent yelling. I'm not sure if there would be any safe way to prevent or stop this from happening. It would probably be best to yell something while immediately taking cover. I've never had any service training so I'm not sure.
@@anastasiabryant2571 Well, not all NCOs are the same. Some are kinder some are meaner. The thing is, soldiers need to recognize all sorts of threats when it happens on the field. Regardless if it's training or not, the soldier's gonna get yelled at. For this instance, let's say a threat comes along for the training exercise. Failure to resolve this threat is an obvious no-no. Yelling at the soldier can give them a sense of danger and recognizes the threat more clearly. Being all soft around them will give off the implication that the threat can be seen as minor. For example, the firearm malfunctioned and as it is an M320 grenade launcher, could explode in your face. If you don't yell at the soldier, which the drill sergeant didn't the soldier might think that this is something that you don't really take seriously. However, the mindset changes if you yell at them. The pressure from the drill sergeant can help make the soldier recognize what the problem is. They don't have to be logical about the situation, they just need to know what to properly without slacking off and brushing away the problem.
I've seen guys who would dead serious mount that barrier and dive into the chalk because they were nervous and too dumb to know which direction 'back' is under pressure. Has zero to do with men vs women, everything to do with the individual
yeah, sergeants wouldn't be that calm if it was a man, the thing is if they raise their voice by 1% to a woman, the woman will for sure leave the military and sue them for sexism.

When I was in they were still using the old M203. They had some decommissioned tanks down range for us to shoot at. A door was open on one of them. Drill instructor said he would buy a case of beer for anyone who could drop one through the door. One of my squad did it, but the DI said it didn't count when it clearly landed inside. The lesson being, the DI is always right.
I'd have told the drill instructor to go out there and prove it's not in the doorway 🤣 The DI is going to ruin your sleep no matter what so in the process ruin their sleep. When standing post at night, knock on his door every night while reporting post. If you dont sleep, he dont sleep either 😅

A sergeant’s ability to give clear& calm direction is such a flex. I went to a marine “pre” boot camp & was at the height of a rope climb when my arms gave out and I slipped down several feet. The sergeant calmly yelled “hand under hand” repeatedly until my body just followed his direction. He saved my hands that day.

What makes me more annoyed with comments like this is that, it's coming from people who's desk chairs are screaming for help under the weight.
@@Glosy369 So what would YOU have done bro? Duck and cover? Wrong. When your grenade launcher misfires for real in a range training environment, you keep it aimed downrange for a prolonged period of time, to ensure you don't have a hangfire, and then unload. You DON'T put it down and back away. But this was a chalk round that broke up in the barrel, which the instructors probably didn't explain to the trainees beforehand, so they had to do it on the spot. There's not a drill for that dude. If the wind was blowing the other way she'd probably have been told to just load up another one and carry on.
@@jarvy251 Oh so sorry I didn't choose to go in the army under the libtard of the US. Will definitely apply this into my dreams when I am shooting a grenade launcher if that ever happens LMFAO. You act like everyone should know this shit LMFAO.
They aren't designed to travel a minimum distance... do you think the grenade has GPS or something? They're on a time delay. If it functions properly, it'll travel x feet in y seconds, probably something like 600fps with a 3 second max flight time.
Thats incorrect. They are designed to travel a minimum distance so to speak. There are internal safety's in place to prevent premature detonation. The grenade has to spin for a certain amount of time before internal parts trigger the fuse. This is why you can direct impact someone/something in close range and it wont explode.@@DrFunkNstein225
The training round malfunctioned, he's telling her to back up so that they don't breath in the orange dust, the projectile usually bursts on impact showing the orange "smoke" (to show where the training projectile landed) however some are defective and crack due to poor storage condition or even poor handling. when the recruit shot there was a malfunction in the round causing it burst instantly and the orange smoke appears infront of them. They did nothing wrong, instructor is just telling them to back up from the orange smoke so that they don't inhale it, it was just a malfunction it can happen to anyone (not the shooters fault) *Little 😅 edit* for those keyboard warriors that haven't been through any military training but still have the need to negatively comment about this recruit without having a clue of what's going on. let's take it from the top.... (1) The video starts off with 40mm training round already loaded it's a M781 practice round, i know because it's the ONLY practice round authorized to be shot out of the M320 (2) the safety has been disengaged already prior to the start of the video (the weapon is live) (3) the recruit says "ready" giving notice of her intent to fire (4) if you look closely at the video, you can see the instructor is well out of camera away from the firing line... In my experience this is because he has already given the "fire when ready" authorization. If the instructor is that far away from his recruits when they have a live weapon, and he hasn't given the authorization command, then that instructor deserves to get canned. A instructor would NEVER and i mean NEVER let the recruits pop the safety on a loaded weapon, or even aim it down range, much less fire it if the range isn't clear, or all the safety protocols haven't been met. If this had been a safety issue where the recruit is at fault (which it wasn't) the instructor would be screaming at the top of his/her lungs and torn that recruit to bits. (5) You can clearly see the malfunction in the video, she was holding that launcher at the correct angle for fire, there's no obstruction in front of them that would cause the orange "smoke" or dye w/e you wanna call it to pop right in front of them it was a round malfunction that caused it to burst instantly when shot, true she jiggles the trigger but that's just because those launchers are a little more stiff than your average trigger, trigger pull on this launcher is 11-15 pounds. (6) Please keep in mind most recruits in basic training don't have confidence handling firearms, that develops over time (with extensive training) (7) Also he's telling them BOTH to back up because the danger radius on the M781 Practice Round is 20m/66ft that orange smoke you see in the video, is actually a non-lethal chalk powder it shouldn't be inhaled, it may cause respiratory discomfort, coughing, irritation to the eyes and mouth if aspirated orally. That orange puff is meant to work as a signal of where the projectile landed (it's easily visible up to 400m) However instructors do know that the SOP (standard operating procedure) for these specific situations during training is to back everyone away from the powder, until they are at a safe distance. (8) Recruits are trained on the "basics" these rounds VERY RARELY malfunction like this they usually just miss fire. Recruits are NOT trained on this exact malfunction, because this ONLY happens in training, this does NOT happen with live rounds. If this exact malfunction was to happen in a real combat scenario with an explosive round, they would all be dead and there's nothing you can teach them that would change that outcome. (9) So you can't expect them to act accordingly when they didn't have prior knowledge that this training malfunction was a possibility, she was perplexed at the situation like all the recruits in the video, none of them knew what had happened. This recruit did everything correctly, as soon as the instructor gave the command to "back up" she followed protocol to the letter, she reapplied the safety, she put the weapon down in a safe manor, with the muzzle towards the range, and she began to back up. (10) It doesn't matter how many times the instructor says "back up", you ALWAYS have to follow protocol when stepping away from a weapon doesn't matter if your a recruit, or an operator. Sorry for the essay, hope the information helps... 🦭
Lots of info, but it's a ND all day.. it was obviously a range and you don't just sway and shoot. I will agree that, the round might of been damaged do to how close it was. But it does still take a primer.. which is pretty safe. Unless the gun had a malfunction.
@@JustaUser82nd you have to have your finger on the trigger to use a firearm... Or do you think that you only put your finger in the trigger well when you're cleaning a loaded gun?
She didn’t shoot the deck, it’s a “Cheeto puff” training round. The projectile is made of blue ceramics that shatter on impact and release a orange dust so you can see your impact. Sometimes they brake apart in the launcher. The reason he’s tell her to back up is because you don’t want to breathe in the dust.
Thanks for actually commenting because you knew something, instead of commenting because you HAD to have other people hear you talk. The lack of any explanation in the caption makes it seem like there’s a live grenade in the launcher that failed to shoot out, and it’s gonna go off any second.
She ain’t even do anything wrong, it looks like a chalk round that malfunctioned and came apart after she shot and you don’t wanna breath that in hence wanting her to get back
The reason the weapons instructor is telling her to put the gun down and back up is because that orange powder is really nasty. The weapon malfunctioned and he's telling her as calmly and firmly as he can so she doesn't panic to get away before she inhales any of it.
1. Weapon malfunctions in training 2. Trainee, having never seen #1, looks puzzled, then to Sgt. 3. Sgt starts patter without waiting for response. Starts with "back up". Then rapid fire "put the gun down and back up, 4. Trainee hears command, follows safety protocol, locks weapon and makes sure it is stable. 5. Trainee walks away less than 2 seconds after the Sgt started speaking. -The weapon needed to be stabilized. You don't want to have a weapon tumble and possibly discharge toward trainees or Sgt. - commands are often repeated by those in charge. - I would bet that she and others watching will respond quickly if that happens again.
You know I'd ask what just happened, but Guageing on the sound, the profile, and that smoke only going about 10ft. Something tells it's nothing good, and you potentially may not be allowed to explain what just happened.😅
Apparently practice rounds have a flaw. If not stored right they can be borderline pre-detonation. -Lady was just getting a grip on the grenade launcher. Getting into position ready to aim. Barely touched the trigger and it went off.- edit. Round prematurely detonated not from trigger. But following launch. Supposed to land on the ground and blow up. Not detonate as it leaves the barrel. That's the design flaw of practice rounds. Misunderstood the issue. Apparently thats a flaw of the practice rounds. The rounds dump fine chalk in the air to help with training with accuracy and distance. But inhaling fine dust isn't all that healthy. So the man in charge of training immediately gave the instructions to move away from the dust till it settles. Trainee is confused but took the time to safe their firearm and ensure it was steady before moving away while following instructions. Next they will explain what exactly just happened, and take 5 before trying again. Sorry. I blamed the round for pre-detonation when actually it failed to travel from the barrel before triggering. Thus it blew up into a cloud of chalk dust right in front of the bunker. Thankfully it didn't detonate in the barrel I suppose. Chalk dust is still the reason for withdrawing.
I love the number of people in comment sections like this who pretend they were in the military, but the only two ranks they know are "private" and "drill seargent"
She pulled the trigger before being instructed to do so.............In my day,...." THAT WAS THE WRONG ANSWER JOE "......!!!!!!! DROP and keep pushing till I get tired " PRIVATE "!!!!

@@Antondoesntimjoking your clearly an idiot that understands nothing about weapons. That’s the point she pulled the trigger and the weapon or the grenade malfunctioned. That pinkish smoke should’ve been atleast 7 car lengths in front of her. Point is if that was a real life scenario she would’ve died. You people keep saying she pulled the trigger like that means anything but it doesn’t you morons.
@@AntondoesntimjokingNoone is saying she didn't pull the trigger. The malfunction was the grenade exploding prematurely after being shot.
It’s a chalk round, they don’t explode. The casing probably had a crack in it that’s why it it did that. Carry some for long enough and you will have that chalk everywhere. Also 40mm have to rotate a certain number of times before it arms. Near impossible to detonate in the air that close. No one here was in any danger.
@@Antondoesntimjokingexcept that you likely have a lack of reading comprehension, OP unmistakably spent a good ¾ of their comment explicitly on the grenade...
Doesn't seem to be "most likely [...] what he meant"
I love that she put the safety on before putting the "gun" down. It's the little things that save lives
why the quotation marks? that grenade launcher is still a gun, isn't it?
She has excellent trigger discipline, too.

@@p0lzs Legally? No, it's classified as a Destructive Device in the US as per 26 USC § 5845(f):
"...any type of weapon by whatever name known which will... expel a projectile by the action of an explosive or other propellant, the barrel or barrels of which have a bore of more than one-half inch in diameter..."
It's a designation given to devices that are firearm-like but need additional regulation and are significantly more controlled.
@@MoudrostOfficial You should probably reread my comment, then delete yours.
To clarify: unlike a gl0ck or AK that is a grenade LAUNCHER as in it’s meant to LAUNCH the grenade. YES she pulled the trigger BUT the malfunction is that the “grenade” (chalk filled round) “exploded” right out of the barrel, which in a real launcher = instant death

@@Hectortoshooting Hector I genuinely hope you own no guns if you think that this is how you should act around the gun
Glad someone explained. I had no idea what she had in her hands. Back in my day ( Insert between dinosaur and now joke ) it was either a grenade or a M203, and that looked like neither. Fun fact.... Smoke grenades could be chained together with CS gas grenades to make colored CS gas. Fun Fact 2 : Copters suck air in from underneath. Do what you will with that info, I know I sure did.
It’s an M320 grenade launcher. Can be fired standalone like shown or attached to an M4. It’s the newer version of the m203.
Lol geeeeezzzzz
Damn I got out in 1998. We had the M203. We were just get m240G but we're using the M60 tripod.
The Army made an adapter to hook to the m240g which broke within a day or two of firing instead of getting the right tripods.
So you had two m240g without a tripods. Smart integration
I got to fire the M203 and the M320 in training when I was in, joined 2009. When the 320 isn't mounted on an M4 it's a weird weapon to fire. If I remember right, you swing it open like a door on a hinge to load it.
In a real life scenario she should be trained to hit the deck.
Then it's poor training or lack thereof and not her .
Not really, 40mm has an arming distance, even if it was a live round it would have perfectly safe
Though very unlikely it’s possible that a live round could prematurely detonate right out the barrel due to it being faulty, however if that does happen I’m sure she wouldn’t exactly have had a choice but to hit the deck.
That was the most polite Gunnery Instructor ever lives on earth.
yeah my father was in military he told us that instructors by default would add 10 cus words in sentence of 3

My husband is 11B, and it happens that using blanks can cause weapons to malfunction. But what is important is that soldiers follow proper gun safety and clear their weapons correctly. Recently, there was an incident on base after EIB range qualifications. During evening formation, a young E3 thought it was a good joke to take another dudes rifle, unclick the safety, and fire the weapon. He did that and blank fire out. The weapon was not clear properly. In addition, the graders at the range didn't properly check to make sure the weapon was cleared. This incident happened in front of Srgt.Major.
This incident was considered a misfire. You could be stripped of your rank. The srgt. Major decided not to strip these soldiers of their rank but no longer could participate in EIB and were given extra duty.
A few years back, my husband had an incident with a private fresh out of boot camp. They're were practicing line drills and playing war games. The 1st srgt at the time told them to go into line formation. Almost everyone in this squad is an E4 and an E5, including my husband. The private was the only one of low ranking. Instead of following in line, he stepped behind my husband. When 1st segt order them to shot. The private was shooting blanks into the back of my husband helmet. My husband felt and heard it, and before he could react. The 1st srgt slamed the private into the ground. The other soldiers took notice and grabbed for the privates M4. That private got an ear full from my husband and the 1st srgt and was given extra duty and was taken off the lanes. When asked why he did it, the whole thing wasn't done out of malice. The private was just nervous and didn't think about where or who he was aiming at.
She put the safety on. Before she set the weapon. Good soldier

Sergeant was calm as he did not want her to panic and possibly hurt herself or someone else. His attitude probably changed after the incident was neutralised. Amen to my Master Sergeant.
With respect, you have that backwards. Being calm is best only when you have no reason to be concerned for safety. The opposites of calm is crucial if safety is at all important to you.

A cheap training shell exploded the moment it left the barrel, that's not supposed to happen. Instructor was chill about it and everyone handled it well.
It still discharged why back up lol the boom part has already happened if anything hold it pointing down range for a min on a miss fire but it did discharge
if a projectile has already misfired, its unpredictable, could have a secondary detonation depending on the round, and why stand in the smoke? Highly unlikely though, instructor was probably just following protocol and never had it happen before.@@headhunter257

It might not have blown up on impact but it's still a live HE round infront.

Probably cause yelling could cause them to hesitate more
If it was a real life scenario he wants them to think clearly instead of thinking about just another drill Sargent yelling.

@@JimothyPicking true, people loves to panic more than be cool in rough situations
@@anastasiabryant2571 Well, not all NCOs are the same. Some are kinder some are meaner. The thing is, soldiers need to recognize all sorts of threats when it happens on the field. Regardless if it's training or not, the soldier's gonna get yelled at. For this instance, let's say a threat comes along for the training exercise. Failure to resolve this threat is an obvious no-no. Yelling at the soldier can give them a sense of danger and recognizes the threat more clearly. Being all soft around them will give off the implication that the threat can be seen as minor. For example, the firearm malfunctioned and as it is an M320 grenade launcher, could explode in your face. If you don't yell at the soldier, which the drill sergeant didn't the soldier might think that this is something that you don't really take seriously. However, the mindset changes if you yell at them. The pressure from the drill sergeant can help make the soldier recognize what the problem is. They don't have to be logical about the situation, they just need to know what to properly without slacking off and brushing away the problem.

Ive been paint balling and all i remember was the bullets rolling peacefully out the barrel
That's good mushrooms , man !
A sergeant’s ability to give clear& calm direction is such a flex. I went to a marine “pre” boot camp & was at the height of a rope climb when my arms gave out and I slipped down several feet. The sergeant calmly yelled “hand under hand” repeatedly until my body just followed his direction. He saved my hands that day.

@@rohangondor I think you missed the point!🤣 It doesn't matter if it's a practice round. You still do what you would do if it was real, hints the "practice" part🤣
@@Glosy369 problem is calling it a practice round would put ANYONE inexperienced at ease in this situation here. Should she just stand there? No. Because you get in that habit, but habits don't just exist. You have to build them up.
What makes me more annoyed with comments like this is that, it's coming from people who's desk chairs are screaming for help under the weight.
@@marciimeris503 You do realize that's what I was saying, right? I genuinely hope you weren't trying to correct me
@@Glosy369 So what would YOU have done bro? Duck and cover? Wrong. When your grenade launcher misfires for real in a range training environment, you keep it aimed downrange for a prolonged period of time, to ensure you don't have a hangfire, and then unload. You DON'T put it down and back away. But this was a chalk round that broke up in the barrel, which the instructors probably didn't explain to the trainees beforehand, so they had to do it on the spot. There's not a drill for that dude. If the wind was blowing the other way she'd probably have been told to just load up another one and carry on.
@@jarvy251 Oh so sorry I didn't choose to go in the army under the libtard of the US. Will definitely apply this into my dreams when I am shooting a grenade launcher if that ever happens LMFAO. You act like everyone should know this shit LMFAO.
Long as it wasn't an HE RND, they all get to keep thire Sundays 🎉🎉😊
An actual round won’t explode prematurely like a chalk round will.
They are designed to travel a minimum distance before becoming “hot”
No it's the fact she didn't know it was loaded and pulled the trigger, hence her surprise and the other one grabbing a round to load.
They aren't designed to travel a minimum distance... do you think the grenade has GPS or something? They're on a time delay. If it functions properly, it'll travel x feet in y seconds, probably something like 600fps with a 3 second max flight time.
so im geussing you havent heard about arming fuses@@DrFunkNstein225
Thats incorrect. They are designed to travel a minimum distance so to speak. There are internal safety's in place to prevent premature detonation. The grenade has to spin for a certain amount of time before internal parts trigger the fuse. This is why you can direct impact someone/something in close range and it wont explode.@@DrFunkNstein225
@@DrFunkNstein225it goes by number of rotations which is a calculated distance based off the rifling. The MK-19 ammunition is the same way.

Classic
I’m Terry, and I knew to back up.
One of my favorite vids and inside jokes I had, thnx for reminding me of that gold
The training round malfunctioned, he's telling her to back up so that they don't breath in the orange dust, the projectile usually bursts on impact showing the orange "smoke" (to show where the training projectile landed) however some are defective and crack due to poor storage condition or even poor handling. when the recruit shot there was a malfunction in the round causing it burst instantly and the orange smoke appears infront of them. They did nothing wrong, instructor is just telling them to back up from the orange smoke so that they don't inhale it, it was just a malfunction it can happen to anyone (not the shooters fault)
*Little 😅 edit* for those keyboard warriors that haven't been through any military training but still have the need to negatively comment about this recruit without having a clue of what's going on.
let's take it from the top.... (1) The video starts off with 40mm training round already loaded it's a M781 practice round, i know because it's the ONLY practice round authorized to be shot out of the M320 (2) the safety has been disengaged already prior to the start of the video (the weapon is live) (3) the recruit says "ready" giving notice of her intent to fire (4) if you look closely at the video, you can see the instructor is well out of camera away from the firing line... In my experience this is because he has already given the "fire when ready" authorization. If the instructor is that far away from his recruits when they have a live weapon, and he hasn't given the authorization command, then that instructor deserves to get canned. A instructor would NEVER and i mean NEVER let the recruits pop the safety on a loaded weapon, or even aim it down range, much less fire it if the range isn't clear, or all the safety protocols haven't been met. If this had been a safety issue where the recruit is at fault (which it wasn't) the instructor would be screaming at the top of his/her lungs and torn that recruit to bits. (5) You can clearly see the malfunction in the video, she was holding that launcher at the correct angle for fire, there's no obstruction in front of them that would cause the orange "smoke" or dye w/e you wanna call it to pop right in front of them it was a round malfunction that caused it to burst instantly when shot, true she jiggles the trigger but that's just because those launchers are a little more stiff than your average trigger, trigger pull on this launcher is 11-15 pounds. (6) Please keep in mind most recruits in basic training don't have confidence handling firearms, that develops over time (with extensive training) (7) Also he's telling them BOTH to back up because the danger radius on the M781 Practice Round is 20m/66ft that orange smoke you see in the video, is actually a non-lethal chalk powder it shouldn't be inhaled, it may cause respiratory discomfort, coughing, irritation to the eyes and mouth if aspirated orally. That orange puff is meant to work as a signal of where the projectile landed (it's easily visible up to 400m) However instructors do know that the SOP (standard operating procedure) for these specific situations during training is to back everyone away from the powder, until they are at a safe distance. (8) Recruits are trained on the "basics" these rounds VERY RARELY malfunction like this they usually just miss fire. Recruits are NOT trained on this exact malfunction, because this ONLY happens in training, this does NOT happen with live rounds. If this exact malfunction was to happen in a real combat scenario with an explosive round, they would all be dead and there's nothing you can teach them that would change that outcome. (9) So you can't expect them to act accordingly when they didn't have prior knowledge that this training malfunction was a possibility, she was perplexed at the situation like all the recruits in the video, none of them knew what had happened. This recruit did everything correctly, as soon as the instructor gave the command to "back up" she followed protocol to the letter, she reapplied the safety, she put the weapon down in a safe manor, with the muzzle towards the range, and she began to back up. (10) It doesn't matter how many times the instructor says "back up", you ALWAYS have to follow protocol when stepping away from a weapon doesn't matter if your a recruit, or an operator.
Sorry for the essay, hope the information helps... 🦭
thanka
Finally. Lot of insecure wanna be commandos in here making fun of the girl for something that isn't her fault. We should encourage her.
Lots of info, but it's a ND all day.. it was obviously a range and you don't just sway and shoot. I will agree that, the round might of been damaged do to how close it was. But it does still take a primer.. which is pretty safe. Unless the gun had a malfunction.
Even Gun Jesus himself proclaimed that 40mm chalk rounds are very unreliable.
Yeah you can see there is something out of norm on her face. This makes sense
It's not about if it's her fault or not, it's about how she reacted to a malfunction which could've cost her life
And how do you know she was trained how to react ?
Training is, in substantial part, for screwing up and learning from it.
Its a chalk round dude, it fired as intended, its just the chalk disintergrated.
I agree: we should never go to war when we have weekends to pretend to be warriors in.
Huh? Weekends? What? 😂
Why woman can't accept the truth. Stay home and raise kids. That's ur job in this world. Oh, I respect woman.
And she made sure to safe the weapon before putting it down
No replies?
She was trigger happy, her damn finger was already on that damn trigger! Man that actually got me heated 😂😂
She’s trumps niece, you know that right?
To be fair you only get one shot regardless 😭
@@JustaUser82nd you have to have your finger on the trigger to use a firearm... Or do you think that you only put your finger in the trigger well when you're cleaning a loaded gun?
She didn’t shoot the deck, it’s a “Cheeto puff” training round. The projectile is made of blue ceramics that shatter on impact and release a orange dust so you can see your impact. Sometimes they brake apart in the launcher. The reason he’s tell her to back up is because you don’t want to breathe in the dust.
Thanks for explaining this dumb video. I was thinking, what the hell did she do?
*Round malfunctions*
“thish ish why women shouldn’t go to war” 🤓
Here I was thinking he was telling her to back up for the hell of it
Thanks for the explanation.
Thanks for actually commenting because you knew something, instead of commenting because you HAD to have other people hear you talk. The lack of any explanation in the caption makes it seem like there’s a live grenade in the launcher that failed to shoot out, and it’s gonna go off any second.
When I was a basic trainee they made us launch it with our arms up hill both ways. 😂
If you ever taste what tear-gassed feels like, you’ll understand it😂
At least she put the safety on first before backing up lol
It only shoots one round 😭
@@seth3520 exactly 💀💀
But still, automatically making a gun safe is a good thing to practice until it's like breathing. Muscle memory is important.
Dude im so F n 💀 right now from laughing the buried me yesterday and im still 🤣
After that round it's empty should have been more worried about getting out of there
At the end I literally can hear him saying “you guys are so stupid” 🤣🤣🤣
Lol... It does sound like DI is about to start that last sentence with "you guys...". I'm thinking something like "you guys are so dead!".
To be fair it is training
No he says you guys---- Are you downs? Not even a live round so who cares you non serving peon!
They don’t sugarcoat or hold back but I mean you’re putting your life in the line so it shouldn’t be taken lightly
She ain’t even do anything wrong, it looks like a chalk round that malfunctioned and came apart after she shot and you don’t wanna breath that in hence wanting her to get back
We called those "Cheeto Rounds". They are harmless.
The reason the weapons instructor is telling her to put the gun down and back up is because that orange powder is really nasty. The weapon malfunctioned and he's telling her as calmly and firmly as he can so she doesn't panic to get away before she inhales any of it.
1. Weapon malfunctions in training
2. Trainee, having never seen #1, looks puzzled, then to Sgt.
3. Sgt starts patter without waiting for response. Starts with "back up". Then rapid fire "put the gun down and back up,
4. Trainee hears command, follows safety protocol, locks weapon and makes sure it is stable.
5. Trainee walks away less than 2 seconds after the Sgt started speaking.
-The weapon needed to be stabilized. You don't want to have a weapon tumble and possibly discharge toward trainees or Sgt.
- commands are often repeated by those in charge.
- I would bet that she and others watching will respond quickly if that happens again.
You know I'd ask what just happened, but Guageing on the sound, the profile, and that smoke only going about 10ft. Something tells it's nothing good, and you potentially may not be allowed to explain what just happened.😅
Weapons don’t discharge from “tumbling”. That’s why there’s a trigger
Apparently practice rounds have a flaw. If not stored right they can be borderline pre-detonation.
-Lady was just getting a grip on the grenade launcher. Getting into position ready to aim. Barely touched the trigger and it went off.- edit.
Round prematurely detonated not from trigger. But following launch. Supposed to land on the ground and blow up. Not detonate as it leaves the barrel. That's the design flaw of practice rounds. Misunderstood the issue.
Apparently thats a flaw of the practice rounds.
The rounds dump fine chalk in the air to help with training with accuracy and distance. But inhaling fine dust isn't all that healthy.
So the man in charge of training immediately gave the instructions to move away from the dust till it settles.
Trainee is confused but took the time to safe their firearm and ensure it was steady before moving away while following instructions.
Next they will explain what exactly just happened, and take 5 before trying again.
Sorry. I blamed the round for pre-detonation when actually it failed to travel from the barrel before triggering. Thus it blew up into a cloud of chalk dust right in front of the bunker.
Thankfully it didn't detonate in the barrel I suppose.
Chalk dust is still the reason for withdrawing.
