Very Very Sad situation. It’s looks like in the movies when it doesn’t affect you and your families. Just remember one thing is that if you are the cause, there will be no peace in your life. You kill somebody for nothing, other than the advancement of your society. It’s as if did it to your self. There will be no peace, just remember that.
They found an unexploded 2,000 pound bomb on base when I was in Germany. It was within 1,000 meters of civilian housing. Civilians on Facebook were freaking out some were saying evacuate others were saying it’s fine we are far away enough not to be hurt and nobody in the post leadership put out any information or any orders. It blew my mind so I left a comment saying I wish someone in our leadership should show some competence and update us on the situation so our wife’s and children know they are safe and I got in trouble lmao. My leadership called me into their office immediately and told me that the post commander was mad at me. That little bitch still never put out any guidance until after the bomb was removed. He had nothing to worry about tho his family lived many miles away.
@@hollow34Danger close for a ground burst from a 2k pound JDAM is 355 meters at a minimum. Surrounding it with sandbags is more procedure than to protect from splash. Those bags will get sent just as far as they schrapnel and debris you see in this video.
Theyre rated as fire symbol 1, so if you had to evacuate due to one being around fire, you're evacuating 4000 feet, or a little more than 3/4 of a mile away. They can send shrapnel pretty far.

I heard over the radio it was let go, I seen a fire ball, then heard the blast, then felt the shockwave.... It was awesome...it may not look like it but these dudes felt that for sure. This was Kandahar valley in 2011
Yea the R.E.D’s are meant to be followed. I think this is the video where one of them get seriously hurt due to all the debris and shrapnel. When the Fister or the JTAC say get down they mean get down.
Ever get any footage of that missile that doesn’t blow up but 6 or 8 razor sharp swords come out and basically work as a blender to turn enemies into milkshakes?
I saw a video yesterday that had that missile. I'll try to find it again and edit this post with the name. Edit: posted on this channel April 17, 2024 titled "Hellfire R9X Ginsu Missile". You're welcome. :)
As former USAF EOD... ya you want to be at minimum... MINIMUM of 3/4 of a mile away from a 2000lbs MK-84 GP bomb body(the bomb portion of the GBU-31) going off. And even then you'll want to be on the look out for debris thrown your way.
My team leader in the Army was the one holding the camera shooting this video when he was a sergeant in the Marine Corps in the 2000s. Don’t remember why he came over to the green but still insane. Small world.

@MrRussiandan1 what? How tf has that got to do with them watching a video and liking it. Your watching the exact same thing spending the exact same amount of time watching and commenting.
I can remember the heat just by looking at videos of the Middle East. It got up to 63 C / 145 F outside and up to 75 Celsius inside the LAV 3 (Striker) driver compartment. Cool video but I’ll I can think about is the heat.
