Do you believe this video looks right? The foot pounds of force of a 9 or a 40 has to be hundreds of pounds. Per shot. The guy broke his fall with his arms after several rounds supposedly hit him. It just looks staged to me.
I hope you're capable of subjectively considering what I'm saying here, but I do feel like your attitude is a bit condescending. If you want to discuss, I will, but this will be the last interrogation I'll be submitting to from you. Is this a "leg-humping" or a conversation?
Again, I've seen many videos of people being shot. Mostly dash cams, but others as well. Some people where shot with AR style rifles, some with 40's and some with 9mm's. If you're thinking that when someone is shot they are hurled back 10 feet, then you've seen too much television. It doesn't happen. In fact, unless you look very, very closely you rarely see any reactionary movement at all.
Just for information purposes, a Remington .223 has about 1200 foot pounds of muzzle energy, a S&W .40 about 480 and a 9mm about 380.
All that being said, no I don't find it odd at all the way the guy fell. In fact, it is pretty consistent with what I've seen.
As far as leg humping, not my style.
