I had the good fortune to meet a fine old Sgt Major who had a number of wisdom rich one liners.
"There is no sense practicing something you can only screw up once"
An E-silouhette target would have served as well for the demo with the balloons.The human model was there purely for drama.
While it could be argued there is advantage to live fire training such as was demonstrated,in my limited,non-veteran experience,US Army Special Forces troops do not practice drama to impress civilians.The ones I know are low key.
In the vid,there is not a risk vs benefit to add up to good training.
Jackass Show type stunts are better left to skateboarders and base jumpers.
Actually,I just viewed the vid again.I did not hear anything to indicate this demonstration has anything to do with any of our military.I see jackets that appear to have a logo that looks similar to Panther Arms.
I do not buy the idea these clowns represent our military.
So they shop at Cheaper Than Dirt,? Big deal.
