Annnnd their three year old was witness to the shooting. And that's all the news I've got in me today.

Wow. That shows incredible confidence in the stunt.

I wonder if they tested the gun on a book prior to the stunt. I doubt it. She fired into the phone book (and her boyfriend) from just a foot away with a .50 Action Express round, which is usually 300 grain compare that to your typical 115 grain 9MM.

Actually, the wife is being charged for manslaughter.

The guy actually did test it beforehand. He was just too dumb to realize that an encyclopedia volume braced by the rest of the volumes gives a lot more resistance than just a book held up to your meats.

right, even if the bullet was stopped by the book you're still looking at a shattered rip cage.

rib cage*

that rip sounds sick though, dawg

That wouldn't impress the internet audience. .22 is weak sauce.

That is true.

"He did it for the lolz"

It disqualifies him from the Darwin Awards.

Nowhere.

Video of event in question is in an evidence locker somewhere.

It will remain unseen like the deaths of Steve Erwin and Owen Hart.

Yeah I finally ran into the story, I was thinking they destroyed property not a person.

Since this is obviously a bad idea on every level I've been kind of wondering if this was a "assisted suicide." Dude was 19 with a kid and a second one on the way, I'd be depressed too.

I think that's why they were so desperate for Youtube fame.

You can't take your view count with you.
