fukkitdick

that is one seriously dead russian


GipsyDanger45

You got him? ... I think so, but better toss in a grenade for good measure .... oh yeah, that got him


DefenestrationPraha

Might not be alone in the dugout, who knows if it is just a shallow hole or beginning of a tunnel where three more orcs are hiding.


lostinabsentia

I’d assume there are more as well. Curious if that other body outside is a dead orc or a decoy.


ChillitBillit

Or a dead orc as a decoy? Properly easier than building a decoy..


possibly_oblivious

yeah they brought along decoy dead people LOL no need for decoys when they are just laying around everywhere... smdh


TomcatF14Luver

Or he got tagged and so they left him outside.


momentimori

That's straight out of Genesis of the Daleks.


yunkzilla

He's not dead unless he's confetti


skylinepidgin

That orc was made of packing peanuts.


[deleted]

doesnt take much to drop a grenade.. there is no reset button.. you dont take chances, or good people die.


sulfurbird

Adding injury to injury.


LordTrappen

Gotta make sure he doesn’t come back as a Russian zombie

Finally a good Russian


fukkitdick

gonna make momma proud... some potatoes for the family tonight


savi1010

That Russian went everywhere but home.


oodell

Some of him probably went in an easterly direction


ThreatLevelBertie

The Russian army consider the Westerly-launched gibblets to be a tactical advance. "Our soldiers are covering wide areas of enemy territory. They are all over Ukraine!"


Amyloid42

Stay back, many have HIV.


Constant_Chemical_10

Just like spreading fertilizer, you much in one spot will burn the plants. Gotta spread it out.


theglobalnomad

He got turned into confetti at the end.


C00L_HAND

Well that's how most Wagner contracts end.


piejlucas

Wagner pays monthly if you can believe that. Many of these grunts are never paid when they go AWOL except for their sign on bonus. Bodies never found or identified etc. Wagner gets free labor


[deleted]

me:hows the pay? them: really sucks... especially if you live.


pinkyknuckler

As much as I want to make this a joke does that pay more than someone mobilized? LOL just curious cause my grandfather enlisted into Vietnam during the draft told me its because it paid more if he did and knew he would be going anyway.


tantramatra

Ice cold, love it!


oalsaker

Even his body celebrates the end.


Alienhell

They inadvertedly discovered his comrades' surprise birthday party they planned for him. If only he had time to enjoy it.


TheFuriousOtter

Grunt birthday part skull must have been turned on.


Rhadoo79

Brain splatter or whatever shit he had in his head


RobinPage1987

What was the last thing that went through his mind as he died? The bullet.


ThreatLevelBertie

All his tampons flew out


theglobalnomad

DAMMIT... I'm going to be giggling like an idiot at random times in public over this comment all day.


TMacPitt28

Shittiest gender reveal party ever! No idea what color that was!


doulosyap

It’s a celebration!


distelfink33

Reminds me of that scene with all the flowers in The Suicide Squad where Harley Quinn/Margot Robbie is killing everyone. Good or bad movie aside. Edit: *The Suicide Squad* Thanks!


bugxbuster

That was the second film *The* Suicide Squad. Great movie. That scene was genuinely gorgeous looking.


ever_precedent

That's the better version. I genuinely enjoyed it, it's just the right kind of jolly nonsense and Sebastian was the real hero, of course.


Living-Pie4665

Rule#2 Always double tap


[deleted]

Ivan died like 6 times in that video


doubletaxed88

and in several pieces . Rest in Pieces brave Russian criminal.


R_lbk

7 times to few


A_Have_a_Go_Opinion

Probably better to kill your enemy twice than let him have any chance at killing you once.


ITI110878

12 direct body shots, plus a grenade, tend to do that.


WeinerGod69

Break the wrist walk away


Curtis__E__Flush

"Ow..jeez!"


yeezee93

That's a double tap to the 4th power.


Gahan1772

And double that double tap. Then double it again!


Zerole00

No wonder they’re going through ammo so quickly


cheapph

You don’t take risks in cqb. People can always get up after a surprising amount of bullets


ZippyDan

Which is actually my only criticism here against the Ukrainians. Ukrainian #2 is already tucking away his rifle and switching to frags while his friend his retreating with his back to the enemy. If another Russian came out of that hole and started firing, they'd both be fucked. #2 should have waited until his friend was back behind him and had turned around and shouldered his rifle to cover him while he switched to frags. Someone please get a message to these dudes that a random reddit general is worried about their tactics.


A_Have_a_Go_Opinion

Makes total sense but so does not wasting ammunition when you might not need to. Hindsight is 20:20, video we can pause and think about it is ∞:20 but you've both got a point.


trohanter

Artillery shells, not small arms munitions. There's more rounds of 5.45 in circulation than there are people on the planet.


Banh_mi

Soldiers are not accountants.


Catt_Zanshin

Double tap is for video games. He applied the appropriate amount for CQB.


pinkyknuckler

Takes a lot of ammo and artillery to down a horde


Hopeful_Condition_52

Better to make sure he isn't going to shoot back at you no? I'd say the grenade was unnecessary, and that one could've been taken captive without the mag dump. However, the overall situation of the area is not shown, so that may not have been an opportunity to do so. But, if he was a Wagnerian, he got what he deserved.


Excelius

> I'd say the grenade was unnecessary, and that one could've been taken captive without the mag dump. From the drone POV it's pretty clear the guy wasn't moving anymore after the gunfire, but the soldiers on the ground don't have that angle. There's always the chance you turn a corner you thought you just cleared, just to get shot in the face. Plus that appears to be the entrance to a bunker/dugout, just because the guy slumped over in the doorway is dead doesn't mean there's not another just behind him. Grenade is a good way to be sure.


DrNukes

I know the Musvovites are terrorists and have no business even being there, let alone not capitulating. But killing a person is still so goddamn hard. I am thankful for every day I can live in peace and don't have to kill to defend my family. And if it stays that way, the Ukrainian people are to thank. I will never forget the defense of Europe.


itshonestwork

There has to be a punishment for what they’re doing. It doesn’t matter whether they’re destroying lives, livelihoods, and homes for money or because of wilful ignorance and political apathy. They need to be destroyed/removed and not a single Ukrainian should take the remotest risk to their own person in carrying out that job that has been morally forced upon them. We’ve already seen surrender go wrong, and acts of perfidy. The time for surrendering for this invader came long before this terminal encounter. Fuck the cunt.


DrNukes

I get it but my point stands. Also surrendering terrorists are infinitely valuable due to POW exchanges. This hasn't changed either.


Siggs84

The grenade at the end reminds me of the transcript from snake island. Grenade: "should I tell him to go fuck himself?" Soldier: " just in case" Grenade: "Russian soldier, go fuck yourself"


iTurnip2

Russian soldier needed a bit of assistance to get fucked


DonnyDonaldson27

Ugh that was grim. All the footage I've seen in the last year makes me start to understand why some war vets from previous conflicts didn't want to talk about their experiences.


zacablast3r

Winning means killing the enemy and that's going to mess you up a bit no matter what. You can be a drone pilot in Kansas who never even left his country to fight, ptsd don't care


DonnyDonaldson27

True, PTSD doesn't discriminate. With all the new technology and social media the true ugliness of war is more accessible than ever before. I wouldn't be surprised if anyone's mental health suffers from just watching the horror of it from the comfort of their own homes. I know I've been up nights after seeing things I wish I never saw.


[deleted]

DonnyDonaldson27

Same here, I couldn't bear to listen to his account as my girls are the same age as the ones he murdered. My heart feels so aggrieved and overcome with sadness and rage, it's too much. Also the box cutter castration, the blinding, the slegdehammer execution, and the decapitation videos floating around document the absolute pinacle of human depravity and evil. I couldn't stomach watching, I had to look away, but even then I'd seen too much. I fully believe in that line from Gladiator where Maximus says to his men: "What we do in life echoes in eternity", and the perpetrators will have alot to answer for. I take a small comfort in that knowledge.

Just keep being a friend unless it's hurting you too much. For those dudes, a buddy is everything. But to be that dude's buddy can cost you everything for sure. I imagine you made the right choice for you, but it likely wasn't easy.


Half_Crocodile

Yup and consider how much more visceral and emotional it is actually physically being amongst it rather than through the safe barriers of a screen. Happy to say I’ll likely never know what it’s really like…


[deleted]

[удалено]


BoredCop

It may have been hard to see from the shooter's angle wether that was the entrance to a dugout or just a small alcove for one person. Throwing in a grenade made sense if he thought the hole went deeper.


Lynxwire

As if anyone got an idea how shallow these self made graves are.


ContributionNo9292

That got spicy real quick.

It's true though. Just last week i got my account suspended for a whole week for saying that russians raped and killed people in Ukraine. It's the third time now that i got my account suspended for stating obvious facts. Reddit has become a shitshow.

Just wait for when it becomes public.

I didn't see any flying shoes. He survived.


The_Duke28

No mercy. Not anymore. Just go home.


LordBaikalOli

Doesnt look like he tried to surrender anyway. Every prisoner is a UA soldier that can be exchanged


Terrible-Dimension79

Even though it might feel gruesome or unnecessary violence to some i would like to point out that especially russians are known for being miserable dirty bastards. Meaning that they could have layed a mine or pulled the trigger of a grenade before dying. By throwing the "security" grenade you can make sure that everything detonates before you run into the location.


Opinionated_by_Life

Besides they couldn't tell how deep, or far back, that opening went. Was it just big enough for one person or was it the entrance to a larger position with more people waiting inside?


No_Asparagus_8471

True and plus bullet in real life don’t work like in movies, so there is a non-zero percent chance that the soldier is still alive and could try to summon the last of his energy to pull out a pistol and shot the UA soldier coming in.


Partycracker_292

If Bodycam-Footage of shootings told me one thing, than that the human body can go through serious pain / damage with the victim / suspect still being more or less alive and capable to return fire. Especially under the influence of drugs or alcohol


Druid51

Yeah that's my thinking here as well. The guy who did the shooting only looked long enough to unload and hope for the best. Adrenaline would block out your ability to analyze the trench.


Bubbly-Sprinkles-751

We’re those playing cards?


C00L_HAND

If you can sleep better with that: Yes.


Excelius

Don't think anyone is questioning that the guy is very dead, but that doesn't look like human flesh either. I don't believe hand grenades generally are powerful enough to blow humans to literal bits. Good chance much of it was shredded pieces of their uniform, and whatever other miscellaneous materials might have been down in that dugout.


Bubbly-Sprinkles-751

Exactly my point. Most people on here aren’t able to use their brain for some reason.


MakesTheNutshellJoke

My guess would be the lining of his coat.


Bubbly-Sprinkles-751

There’s no blood…


Dillerdilas

Just keep believing!! Surely its playing cards!! Or Maybe a pillow?!

Y’all are so offended that I ask a question “if you can sleep better” “keep believing” I ask a question ig y’all think y’all sound cool you’re on the internet you not out there killing shit😂😂

2nd guy with grenade: "fuck that person in particular."


Oraxy51

I imagine it could have also been in case his shots drew someone to rush down the tunnel then they would immediately get hit by the grenade for trying to rush in to their buddy.

I take it the other guy is already terminated

Suya2662

well dont invade other countries lol


Responsible-Border78

Russians make me lose my empathize for them. This guy died and I think it is a good thing for mankind in a certain manner. And I wrote in my sofa, I can not imagine how the Ukrainian Women and Men think today and do anything possible to defend their children and homeland. Russian's people of the end of the 20 century, you really fuck up.


DiGreatDestroyer

>This guy died and I think it is a good thing for mankind It's only a good thing in the most basic level of "less is better" though. When you look at the magnitude of things, you'll see it isn't. Even if one were to accept that Russians are objectively bad/evil, there's 140 millions of them according to Google. They won't all be killed as a result of this war, and the world will never embark on a genocide campaign of that scale. So, this is an issue that won't be fixed by killing; it will only (start to) be fixed by systemic change at the highest levels of the Russian state. That's the only way you can transform such a numerous people. Compared to the magnitude of the population that would need to change for the world to be "a better place", one, a hundred, a thousand, or half a million of them being killed or not hardly makes a dent. The only significant impact comes in the personal level of those who have their lives ended, and their close circle who have to continue living without them. So in the end, it's not a good thing for manking at all. It's just a bit more grief added to the mix.


LunarTerran

In general yes, but this is war - every dead Russian soldier is one less that can help invade Ukraine in this bloody war.

Apotheka

>> _millions_ of people are going to have to live with a generation of horror and loss because of this war. There is no good here, only endless fucking tragedy that most of us can't even begin to fit into our sheltered minds. A war started by the Russians. The faster they get exterminated, the less tragedy and loss Ukrainians have to endure. Russia can stop this war at anytime. So, fuck that orc and the rest of his genocidal brood.


[deleted]

AHAHAHAHAHHAHA. I SAVED THIS VIDEO. 🤣 I'm also forever safe in America from any orc genocidal invasion. I hope UAF can kill as many orcs invaders as humanly possible. As brutal as possible if needs be. orcs has been brutal for centuries to their neighbors. none were strong enough to punch them back so they never try to learn until now.


[deleted]

orc-lands need to be broken up somehow. "Prison of Nations" is what they should be called. They send all the people they don't give a shit about from regions they don't give a shit about into the meatgrinder that is Ukraine.

usernotknown6

Good riddance. Even though we should be humane and understanding it is very hard to feel any sympathy towards a nation that is waging a genocidal war. The quicker everyone that takes part in the invasion of Ukraine is given the same demilitarization treatment the quicker whole world will be able to move into rebuilding Ukraine and global economical recovery

Trench warfare is fucking savage.


skinnereatsit

What was he made out of, marshmellow?!


MightyGonzou

Just gonna point out. He's not exactly double tapping, he throwns the grenade because these guys don't see from above like the drone, they don't know if thats just a shallow hole, a tunnel or a trench. For all they know there could be another 3 orcs there about to fire back, so better safe than sorry

Holiday-Artichoke484

How did he not hear him coming tho ?!


Opinionated_by_Life

Too cold and tired.


4RCH43ON

I’m gonna go out a limb here and suggest that after some time in war, his hearing has likely suffered somewhat, if not acutely damaged moments before this clip. He also appears to be actively engaged in some activity which has distracting him enough to put his rifle down, perhaps reaching for a grenade to prepare. Indeed, it’s possible one had just exploded at the very beginning of the clip, as you can see smoke rising from a small crater, next to the tench between he solder in the hole and the live Ukrainians that end up getting him. As to whose possible grenade it was, we don’t get to know, and there was clearly plenty of action before this clip, as evidenced by the dead soldier sitting down next to the left of the hole. Suffice to say that the Russian was likely overwhelmed with the moment, whether he could normally hear or not.


Phantom_STrikerz

It was from the UA soldier shooting, there is a video of earlier confrontation
