Double rifle abuse… here we go again!

[Berettaco]

Makes me sad - very painful to watch….

 

[sierraone]

Im just wondering how cheaply I can buy that Rizzini off of him now... If he'll let it go for $3K I'll write him a check tomorrow...

But he would have to clean it first.

For the views!…. The more people who see that video the more money he makes; so average $100US per 1,000 views and I believe it’s at 244K views in less than 24hrs.

So he’s already 100%+ profit on what he spent on the gun.

And just like a boy band, most of that profit comes from the views of bored, easily amused, impressionable and easily coerced teenagers and 20 somethings.

I'm guilty of posting on this site the video of him almost killing himself with the 50 bmg, but I refuse to watch any of this garbage anymore. I'm disgusted by the ever growing number of rich idiots these days made famous by adding nothing to the world via YT and Twitter.

 

[BeeMaa]

The level of disrespect he shows most firearms in intolerable. This takes it to a whole new level.

I'd like to know how the barrels regulated prior to this abuse, then checked it after. Especially after running it over with a truck.

 

[Wyatt Smith]

He probably doesn’t understand regulation.

 

[Tubby’s Canteen]

Based on his previous actions and the stringent safety practices he adheres too he should at some point win a Darwin Award for his efforts.

 

[R.M.C.]

Jesus what a dumb ass lol yeah old Darwin might claim that guy someday and he'll probably get it on video hahaha. I'll watch that , not this one

 

[BeeMaa]

He probably doesn’t understand regulation.

Agreed..I'm sure he is blissfully unaware.

 

[Bigfoot Hunter]

I can’t stand that guy, he almost dies from a .50 cal and then he buys an old 50-60 year old 10 gauge shotgun that’s been converted to shoot 700 nitro express, one of the most powerful sporting calibers on earth, he’s already “sent it in” to get fixed… not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed but hey anything for those views and $$$.

It just sucks he has chosen to start doing all this stupid s*** with classic big/dangerous game rifles with so much history. Before him, it was hard to find videos online of the .700 nitro, now his stupid s**** is front and center lol.

 

[Kevin Peacocke]

He hinted that if he gets to 100k views he will do something really drastic, probably purposely blow it up. This man is not only a money whore, he is plain disrespectful. That in my list of descriptions is a pretty bad person.

 

[mdwest]

but hey anything for those views and $$$.

That’s what it’s all about..

An “average” influencer can pretty easily make $40-$50k a year off of YouTube alone… factor in the ancillary money they bring is from other social media outlets and it’s an easy $60-$80k job for “developing content”…

If you actually develop a big following… the numbers can get A LOT bigger… there are literally 15 year old kids on Tik-took bringing in 7 figures annually…

Anything for a buck it would appear…

 

[PerH]

Yt isnt what YT were about before.
They have restricted or removed a lot of gun and ammo content or subjects. Like Reloadibg they strike down on, gun modifications, full auto fire. Forgotten Weapons has to put his full auto ones elsewhere..

British Muzzleloaders had to move some of his .303 British reloading episodes elsewhere since they reacted against them.



Even making paper or linen cartridges were acted against like Duelist54 i think nick was.

Then comes these wannabe which are just ruining it all,on same way as a coffee brand that begin on Bxxx did.

Some of these people like the money lover douches is in pc category called called " make it palatable of being tied to a peg next to machan in the depts of Sundarban in wait of the striped khan" .

 

[Frederik]

Anybody notice hes also from Kentucky.

Sorry Bourbontrail!

 

[Sourdough]

I heard KB once as he talked with other social media influencers. He said he had learned that the more he acted like a jackass the more viewers and likes he got, and hence the more money. This is really an indictment on the younger generations and their lazy stupid parents for not raising them properly. Just saying.

 

[BRICKBURN]

So even stupidity has a value.

If it gets attention....

 

[Rob404]

You can't fix Stupid

I only watched a few mini items of the video, not because I was disgusted in what he was doing, but because I just hate watching videos period. But here’s a few comments I have

a) You guys watched it, so he made money off you, remember the golden rule “Any publicity is good publicity.”

b) This wasn’t a “classic” DG rifle. Caliber yes, rifle no. It was an entry level double. It’s beyond the means of the majority of the population, but in no way is it anything special.

c) How many gun rag writers have done tests to see how much pressure a particular action can handle before it fails? More than a few I would imagine, I don’t really see a difference besides the method used to deliver the message.

Torture tests have been around forever whether it be with cats, trucks, tools, guns, you name it. You can dislike his personality, but that doesn’t mean that he was doing anything wrong. I’d say he’s doing something right, as I cant afford a 10k rifle just to make a video!

Yeah dumba**’s doing stupid or shocking stuff with guns have always gotten a lot of views/money on YouTube, look at demolition ranch, fpsrussia etc. he’s just the first one to start doing it with these types of rifles. Amazing how they allow these idiots to get rich while banning people who will actually try to educate people about firearms.

To top it off, I'm sure he can wright the gun off on taxes.

Look at sport, TV, music ALL entertainment people make big money. This guy is no different, he did get lucky. He almost died, it was an accident. After that, his views went up big time. At the end of the day it is a business, nothing more.
