Little overdone but good camera work and such.

That's got more of a chance happening that 99% of the crap that comes on television these days.
It's the fact somebody pretty much made a movie out of a video game. :rolleyes:

According to Mythbusters it certainly works against RPGs... IF you can make the shot lol

The problem I have is, even if the shot hit, in the video the round had already left the barrel. Assuming it was an HE/HEAT round it detonated outside the barrel... It probably would've had some nasty effects on the barrel and maybe crippled the main gun if the guy with the pistol was lucky... but completely trashing the tank? Please... that frontal armor might get scratched by a direct impact HE round and is known to defeat damn near everything else thrown at the front of the tank. An indirect explosion like that would have the gunner asking wtf? And then splattering the guy with the Co-ax.
If it was a SABOT round... there would have been no explosion at all.
Aside from that and killing a jet with a single burst from an UMP .45. Great show. Good music, good camera work. 8/10 from me, personally I think it would have been cooler to have him dodging the co-ax from the Abrams, sliding under the tank and walking out the back with a detonator and clicking off a block of C-4.

Haha that would have been cool but how would you explain the tank not just spinning on top of him to kill him? :P

Amateur videography made from video games. It's mostly dumb BS with no real quality.
THIS is a good video though, even if it starts off a little slow. The song is derived from a POP song, but it's catchy as hell.

True, they did make a movie out a video game...that shows a guy shooting a 5000+ fps main gun round with a pistol that maybe travels
1/3 that speed and detonating the mystery round <doesn't look like a sabot or HEAT round to me>. Of course it's a movie, because in real
life the M1's muzzle blast alone would have practically turned him inside out at that range. I just like my movies a little more believable.
I went back and watched a little further and I loved the part where Mr Gunslinger kills about a dozen automatic weaponed armed GIs with
a pistol, not one of whom fired back or even raised there weapons...oh yeah, great flick :lol
