Default Navy SEAL sniping from 2,500 yards!

Got this from SocomClans.net, it's a video of a Navy Seal sniping terrorits from 2,500 yards. The video was taken by the sniper's spotter, who spots and confirms all kills.

WARNING! GRAPHIC VIOLENCE, not safe for work.

All I can say is... holy shit. I'm glad the Seals are on OUR side

No, those are terrorists, not rats. Don't insult rats by comparing them to terrorists.

I'd have been disgusted if they had been shooting rats. Extremists? I don't give a rats ass about With a couple of those shots I didn't see anything until the sights had been lined up.

What were they using? a tank? there is no rifle that could do that to a human body at any distance, let alone 2500 yards.

secondly, I doubt those were from 2500 yards. in a place like afganistan, the heat mirage would make the target very had to see especialy at almost 1.5 miles.

my BS-o-meter is going nuts (at least for the SEAL sniping at 2500 yards claim. i could see shooting varmits at much closer being a better explanation).

Nothing you said is even remotely intelligent.

Sorry.

.50 cal. go through people, not blow them up. they use .50 for anti-material operations. watch mythbusters when they shoot the dummy from 20 feet with one. maybe then you'll have some intelegence.

If you want me to, I can explain Newton's third law on motion and why this makes it imposible for a gun to send someone flying like that.

by the way, i dont question the footage. i question the explanation that goes with the footage.

Everret, a guy in my Halo 2 clan is former military. He's seen fifty cal snipers do just that before.
