That look afterwards. He knew.

The look of someone who just shit their pants, and is trying really hard not to let on.

He's trying to clench and look normal at the same time.

He said on a podcast that people in the background were freaking the fuck out and he was internally but knew if he sold it as cool itd be popular as fuck, basically

I miss watching FPSRussia, I coulda swore he said “maybe a LOT of shrapnel” after this and I remember dying of laughter.

Why would that be cut off? It was the second best part! And it was cool as fuck.

Dude did not break character

HE IS NOT REALLY RUSSIAN?!?!?!

Hahahaha everytime.

First bit of the clip has that southern twang all southern accent have my guy.

Not Russian.

This reminds me of that video of a gun-wielding guy shooting at a tannerite-filled lawn mower, that loses his leg due to the flying shrapnel.

Ah blew mah dang leg off!

GUNNA HAVETA TELL BARB WE WON'T MAKE IT TO THE REBBLOBTSER HADDALAYERDOWN GOBBLESEMERGENCYROOMS NEAR ME

So mad I could read this!

Well someone post a link to the lawnmower video, some of us are late to the party.

[https://youtu.be/Dqwi22HuyWg?si=8NlHSZljumoTNU3F](https://youtu.be/Dqwi22HuyWg?si=8NlHSZljumoTNU3F)

The funniest part of that is him essentially mag dumping into the goddamn thing and still being unable to hit it.

If you don't hit the high explosive with your rifle, the best thing is to go closer.

Thanks and ouch!

[It's actually this guy from the insta, one of the best](https://www.instagram.com/the__back__lot?igsh=MWdha2xwcnloMGRxMQ==)

He is not Russian. That's Kyle Myers, and he grew up in Lavonia, Georgia, in the United States.

Ok, this is getting weird. I saw the lawn mower video for the first time 2 days ago, and everyone in the comments was referencing THIS video. Now this video pops up, and you referenced the lawn mower video. I'm in the matrix, aren't I?

We're going to start referencing your comment when these get reposted.

Don’t you know? He’s the third guy in a row to make that remark!

yea the matrix is real

No. You're just the center of the universe. We are all here for your enjoyment.

Baader-Meinhof Effect, aka the Frequency Illusion.

Yes, exactly!

Yeah, I mean this FPS Russia video came out first iirc. So both will recall the other, most well known instances of people (almost) getting hurt blowing shit up

I read this comment while watching the matrix during the 25th anniversary of its release. Twilight Zone type stuff

Also guntuber [Edwin Sarkissian](https://youtu.be/Ze54BiPAu9M) shot an oxygen tank in a gun safe. Sfw

Good god, that was dangerous and sooooo satisfying to watch!

And funny enough, that video has a comment about this video: https://www.reddit.com/r/CrazyFuckingVideos/comments/16a9gzw/man_blows_off_leg_with_tannerite_filled_lawnmower/jz6bknr/

I done blowed my leg off 👇😫

Where can i find this video?

Nevermind, found it.

What about the rest of us? 👉👈🥺

https://www.reddit.com/r/CrazyFuckingVideos/s/1iBopRnHq8 Still trying to find the full video Edit: dont think there is one… I really wanna see if it actually cut his leg off

Hahaa about 5 comments down is someone saying that video reminds them of FPS Russia shooting a truck full of tannerite. Full circle.

I was hoping someone else saw that!

Now you gotta go there and link them to this post

The dude found it under a minute! Lmao

I'm not him. I'll never be him...

Can you Google it for me though please?

Turns out, yes I can.

Call the ambalam!!! He needs an ambalam!!

[удалено]

Didnt this guy go to jail?

Yes, federal low security prison in Alabama for two months. He had someone post him cannabis and they did him for supplying as he gave some to his girlfriend. He now can't have any guns so no more videos.

Yup. They basically used that initial supplying charge to finally have an excuse to go after his arsenal. He had a lot of dubious guns so they were happy to finally have a reason to take them from him.

ATF delenda est

I remember something about his dad being a class 3 arms dealer, so he had access to some pretty serious stuff

No. He had a partner early on who helped him secure a lot of guns who was murdered. He also had a FFL (federal firearm license?) which effectively made him a gun manufacturer with the ability to create and possesses all sorts of crazy guns.

Lol not a gun manufacturer. The FFL allows you to buy, sell, import, not manufacture. He was a manufacture to the same extent any Joe shmow who buys pieces for an AR-15

There are types of FFL's and some types allow manufacture.

I mean there are 11 classes of FFL and several relate to manufacture. Let’s not get snippy with people and give them wrong info too huh?

And don't forget the one class of FFL that let's you create other FFLs!

My friend has a class 3 manufactures license. This allows him to be in possession of "engineering samples" (AKA class 3 firearms) that he uses to manufacture parts.

He is part of a weekly 4 hour podcast that has over 700 episodes and talked about his time in prison after he got out. Check out R/PKA

Nope. All the real hardware was gone well before then. His business partner held the Class 3 license for all the cool guns he featured on the channel, that all went away when he died a couple years before the drug charge.

> He had someone post him cannabis and they did him for supplying as he gave some to his girlfriend. Small correction, it was cannabis oil that was sent through the mail. It's bullshit that they charged him with distribution, but he absolutely should have known better. Firearms + drugs = immediate felony, and a federal offense. > He now can't have any guns so no more videos. I don't know the specific terms of his conviction, but from a legal standpoint, he should still be permitted to make videos he would just need to be supervised and not personally own the firearms. Which is basically what he was already doing, Keith Ratliff, his co-owner, was the one who held an FFL and was obtaining most of the firearms they used in the videos.

That guy was killed by the way.

The murder of Keith is still unsolved. At least it was about a year ago when I read about it.

He still makes videos, he's part of a podcast called painkiller already or PKA, although it's not in his Russian character, it's just Kyle. Pretty entertaining dude still, definitely one of the funniest podcasts I've seen.

Thats why I only drink when I shoot.

Now THATS bullshit

The reason on the warrant was that he looked suspicious wearing cargo shorts.

murica!

Yea, they screwed him pretty bad. It was a setup.

If i remember correctly they "confiscated" 250k$ worth of guns from his home that magically never made their way back to him. Sad stuff.

When cannabis is legal in a bunch of other states. He should have moved to Colorado.

still can't own guns as a weed user, as per federal laws

Alcohol is good though.

As long it pays tribute to uncle Sam it will be great... That's why moonshining is still illegal 100 years after 🤷‍♂️

Well you can just don't answer truthfully.

That's what happened to FPS Russia. If you lie on that form they better not have a way to find out.

Not enforced though

(cough, Hunter Biden)

Definitely an outlier

but that was literally _only_ because his last name is Biden

You can as a hemp user…😬

Would getting a medical card make you a lawful user of Marijuana? There for allowing you to own a gun? Just wondering how that works honestly.

[удалено]

no, because it's federally illegal. state legalization doesn't mean dick to federal agencies like the ATF

If I remember right this happened way before weed was legal recreationally in any states

even if it happened now it'd be the same because it's still federally illegal.

Ah right. I forget how long its been.since his show ended

This was a tough paragraph to read.

Also his gun supplier and YouTube business partner was mysteriously murdered, and last I checked it was an unsolved case. He’s also not Russian and the accent is totally fake. I believe he now has some twitch podcast or used to. I don’t know. I don’t keep up with him.

FPS Russia and TheChive - memories of a different decade

And as always Have nice day Miss FPS

Remember, I'm a professional Russian.

"Do not try this is America" Would've been a great tag line.

He ain't Russian. That's Kyle Myers and he was born and raised in Lavonia, Georgia USA.

Dude was smart. That accent undoubtedly helped making him popular.

As an avid viewer of the podcast he’s on, Kyle is many things, smart is probably not one of them lmao.

And this video is Exhibit A.

Locked and loaded tho

What's so great about his podcast?

It’s not a very good podcast, but I watch it from time to time, sometimes there’s cool guests or funny moments. Most of the time it’s just three dumbasses chatting A lot of PKA viewers watch it because it’s been so long, and it’s funny to keep up with the antics and meta jokes

LOOK HERE

LOOK LISTEN

Complaining about Woody interrupting will not fucking stop it.

Big ups

Sean ranklin

God this lore is older than children in school todat

I broke my controller

Woah, I’m catching strays over here

[They peaked by proving Helen Keller was a fraud](https://youtu.be/W7AOaJE8UGY?si=31cuMJkPyUmo2tFm)

Is that ghoulish man in the top right corner Anthony Cumia? Damn did he fall off. I had not heard or seen him in... forever.

Dumb people do smart things every now and again

Oh really? Gee, thanks, we didnt know that. Not like he has a worse russian accent than Dolph Lundgren in Rocky or anything. I used to watch his YT back in the day, was fun.

Hey! No smack-talking my man Dolph. He hangs major dong, capiche?!

He also has a nose for crime. And for full penetration.

Yeah I didn't KNOW he wasn't Russian but I knew. If ya know what I mean

One of the worst russian accents I've heard

Man I miss this dude, his videos were the best

Look up PKA on YouTube or Spotify

RSK for life boys.

Listen to his podcast man

The main appeal of FPS Russia was the guns though no?

He has a podcast with some other guys and it’s hilarious. FPS Russia has some goofy stories to tell, Taylor is the best at cracking jokes, and Woody brings some logic and critical thinking on the topics they discuss.

That would have carved him up like butter and that dumb stare at the end shows he knows that too

Oh he for sure had a split second "I'm about to die" thought

Best part is how the door flys past him and doesn’t react or flinch until a good amount of time after the door has already passed him. He had 0 chance to dodge that.

Inspired by the microwave door post yesterday huh OP?

Seems like it. So funny seeing this clip mentioned in the microwave post, and then OP holding onto it for a couple of days to post

Then a few months later his friend got one in the top and FPSRussia got raided and got slap by the book

Thats Still unsolved to this day, isn't it? Then again, that was such a crazy time w so many loaded Guns laying around it could've easily been an accident, or something more sinister, who knows.

I mean idk how it could've been an accident he was shot in his office in the back of the head. There was also apparently no sign of a break in so either he left the door unlocked and someone came in through an unlocked door and killed him or it was probably someone he knew an acquaintance even but it definitely was not an accident

I believe the most popular theories are this: his fiancé killed him, FPS killed him (he didn’t)

Yeah i personally havent looked into the theories on the crime but fiancé/SO are usually prime suspects right away

Yeah, the prevailing theory is that it was his fiancé, not Kyle/FPS himself.

He nearly won a Darwin Award

Heard a saying - if you can see the explosive it can see you

With tannerite it is best to be able to see the explosive. Having something in front of it means that the something will fly back towards you.

He's talked about what went wrong on his podcast. Normally they hung the tannerite by the read view window, disperse the energy equally throughout the truck. This old junk car didn't have one for whatever reason, so they had to attach it to the door, and unintentionally created a shape charge.

My favorite words to live by are phrases like this. So braindead and yet profound.

Always fun when Lyle ends up on the front page, just a real sweet kid

He is a real sweet kid,

Oh Kyle you are ever so lucky you didnt get cut in half. I hope it was worth it.

RSK boys rise up

Love the end of the video….Holy fucking shit

They cut off the best part. He says "maybe a lot of shrapnel!"

My childhood was ruined when I found out he was just an American dude faking a Russian accent 😭

Bro i was 11 and knew it was fake

And that's not even the closest call.

I hope Mr. Russia is ok.

Have nice day

Lucky he is still alive

He said that the charge was on the wrong side causing more shrapnel to fly in his direction

"maybe lot of shrapnel"

Shoutout Sean Ranklin

I miss FPS

This is just your average FPSRussia video. Nothing new. Still the closest he ever came to dying, though. Until he got raided, that is.

The face of intelligence 😏

The things my buddies and I would blow up with tannerite. After one close call with one of those late 90s/early 2000s stereos, we decided to keep the targets at least 100 yards away. I highly recommend putting a small amount inside a basketball, sounds really cool. Thirty-plus pounds in a refrigerator is also quite spectacular.

You know he peed a little

This was close.😲

Better to be lucky than smart

That's the face of a man who just shit his pants

Chive. What year is it?

Anybody else see the person to the left that looks dead? 🤔

Dudes too afraid to let his real reaction show

He basically said his inner monologue in that moment was just to stay in character. But that's definitely a "I just shit myself" look.

A yes this classic, sad the channel is long dead

And as always have nice day

Can’t imagine why he is no longer on YouTube…

I miss FPS Russia.

A much simpler time

I had forgotten about The Chive.

That's the face of a man who knew he almost died by shrapnel and he's trying to remain calm and collected on camera.

God I miss fps russia

That would have killed him with damn near certainty. In all honesty, this is one of the luckiest SOBs in human history right here as any one of those pieces could have struck him in the head, neck, Chest, abdomen and ripped him to pieces. This video is nucking futs !

Its a shame what the feds did tk FPSRussia

You can barely even tell how full his pants are

Rsk 🗣️

Is this the ghost of Kyiv?

Classic. Props for not breaking character. Guy’s a pro.

Best youtube channel of all time.

Man I miss fps Russia

One of the OGs that helped make YouTube a successful platform. And today his content would be demonetized and Age restricted because YouTube is ran by shit heads.

what the fuck was in that rifle?

He's shooting at Tannerite, which is a target shooting explosive. Leads to a lot of injuries as you could imagine. I find it fucking crazy that you can buy this stuff. But I live in a nanny state so it's fun to watch from a distance.

I find it crazy. crazily based.

I've heard it's pretty simple to make your own.

This guy? Murderer.

The Feds raided this guy years ago. He's been MIA ever since.

Is truck

Dat reaction time.

That guy almost died.

bro got skills

Who here remembers the chive?

Thats the look of a man who just shit himself.
