I thought the same at first but he actually walked under it. You wouldn't necessarily want to walk behind it because, if it were to fire and malfunction while he was walking back there, he would be more likely to be injured than he would by walking under it.

The blast coming out of that cannons muzzle would have fucked his day up big-time. So you're both right, but the right answer is to stop fiddling with it while he was walking around it, and that's on him as well. Overall a shitty performance from both of em.

Nah, he knew she was incapable of making it fire. She made that perfectly clear.

There was no correct move he could have done while she was failing to fire and their commander didn't step in. The soldier dude couldn't even tell her to stop pulling while he was walking over since he's not her superior. Even if their comamnder had to step in it would be a humiliation since he would have to babysit her during a public show.

The sound that comes firing a cannon doesn't come from the cannonball, it comes from the gunpowder. ffs

The sound comes from gas expansion. There is less gas because it is not a real round and doesnt have the same propellant charge and you dont understand that. Also the brake routs gas out the sides not straight down

Yeah, but the shock wave itself is more than enough to do serious damage. In detonation, it's actually pressure gradient that does most of the damage (i.e. in a bomb blast). You might live, but you could get a serious TBI from standing that close to the end of a large bore barrel.

It didn't look like they were wearing ear pro so obviously safety isn't their concern.

Can confirm. I wasn’t blown up per say in Afghanistan, but I was around a lot of guys that were. I sustained a Traumatic brain injury from it all and didn’t know how bad it was until I completed some HBOT treatments and had a normally functioning brain again.
