I gotta say, I'm subscribed to a bunch of strictly shooting channels, and when I get a notification of yours, I'll be clicking on it way quicker than the shooting videos of others. Awesome stuff! I really liked the water balloon to the face series too! Keep at it destin!

If this isn't a good enough reason to wear safety glasses then I don't know what is.

Do you always keep a handgun in the dairy compartment of your fridge?
