These work accidents must suck... someone should call OSHA on them.

I can't tell if it detonated or just the motor went off without the rocket launching. Perhaps if I watch it a few times.....

So, is it poor maintenance, or did they use some of the "doctored" ammo our snake-eater types have been slipping into their ammo caches? :lol: Either way, I can see why they were praying every time they fired the thing...

Ah, this one was not as good as the mortar one I saw a while back. But that said any time a jihadi goes boom by himself or with his friends it's a good thing.

Why would they put video of a rocket blowing up in their face in what appears to be a propaganda film?

Find someone who speaks the language and ask them, since they'll know what's being said in the video.

The only guy I know who spoke the lingo dropped out of school a while back. A jihadi safety training video maybe ("Don't be like this idiot...")? ;)
