    Might not have been a real prop gun even. I've heard of stage accidents from people with people who don't get that a blank charge is actually a two feet long plasma lance.

        When the gun goes bang it still throws out a bunch of very hot, very fast gas along with anything in the barrel (debris etc) that can still kill you if you’re close.

        It's a Shelly Poem, about a traveller encountering a single broken statue in a desert with the phrase "Look upon my works, ye mighty, and despair" written on it. The idea being the arrogance of man is wiped away by time.

        I am comparing the above comic of a monument to that, except the chuds were all forgotten inside 4 years.

          I could wrong, but I am relatively certain that is not an accurate description of how a gun loaded with a blank fires.

      They did this in the movie "in bruges". The main guy grabs another dudes gun and they're like "jokes on you, they're blanks, so the main guy puts it up to the guys eye and fires.
