Luck

It's incredible sometimes, when you stop to think about it, the part luck plays out in our lives.

Take the following guy, for example:

To call this guy lucky is not going quite far enough. He's fucking goddamned lucky. That's a Barrett 50-caliber rifle he's shooting and what knocks the headset off is the ricocheting slug.

Watch the video again and this time, watch the ground about 20-feet in front of the guy, just as the whistling happens. The ricocheting bullet kicks up a puff of dust on its way to knocking some sense into that guy—who just used up all his luck for the next ten years.

50-caliber rounds are used by some police forces around the country to disable cars by shooting one(!) into an approaching vehicle's engine block. Imagine what such a round would have done to the guy's head!
