Worked for me. SOLID HIT THERE. I didn't realize RPGs are that quick...maybe it was the film. Either way that gunner is screwd.

It sends chills down my spine seeing videos of our troops being attacked like that. I could have been (or still could be) in their shoes.

thats what PO'd me most in the video, they made it sound like some kind of circus thing, like some BS celebration.

i hope they rot in Hell.

I can't tell if there were any men inside the Humvee at the time of the strike.

Either way, despite the fact the the movie got out, you can rest assured that those camel****ers paid for that hit in one way or another. The sad reality of the matter is: 72 virgins spread out over eternity really isn't all that much *****.

~~to the our GIs.~~

Yup there was. A gunner was in the turrent....the RPG struck what looked like dead center on the rear door.

as far as drivers.....I can't tell that either.

So there was.... I hope he made it out okay.

May they take their rhythmic chanting to hell with them.

If you ask me Id say theres no driver in the humvee. There was just the gunner and the guy besides the humvee.

The website I got this video from also has a video of a bunch of insurgents ambushing a civilian tractor trailer convoy with machine guns. They play patriotic arabic music in the video. Very sobering to watch.

I enlarged the video to full screen to get a better view of it and I did not see a driver or anyone else in the humvee. Rest in peace brave soldiers.

Id like to know more about this incident like why when where but then Im just a curious son of a b**ch.

There aren't any unit marking on the vehicles (so they're probably new in theatre, or it was filmed early in the war), any it looks like Anywhere, Iraq.

There is no gunner turret on the hummer. The guy on top is just sitting on the back of the truck unless it's an improvised weapon mount (hard to tell from the bad video), which is a common practise for units that don't normally get issued gun trucks.

Terrifying, I mean next thing you know cute animals like chimps will know how to fly A10s and B52s and rebel against mankind and then we'll hate them for the insidious, filthy philistine offsprung-from-*****es creatures they are!!
