Cool!
thank you for not saying “first!” “Cool” is relatively intelligent.
You know, of course, that some arse will eventually show up and shout “FIRST!!!11!!11″ just to spite you.
Heh, I’m saying it to spite you:
FURST!!!!1!!1one1!!elevenetcsoonsoforthblahblahblah…
Disarmament? It looks like a Jedi shotgun discharge to me.
Anyone know what this guy is doing?
It is a very technical exercise called “unloading empty shotgun shells from a shotgun.”
Magic.
he’s catching the empty shells as they’re ejected from his shotgun.
I would say triathlon, but I think they use rifles for those.
That would be biathlon, and it’s a winter event.
i believe the proper term is “Dick Cheyneying”
So I guess we could say this guy was “Dicking around”?
well played my friend!!!
It’s a double barrel break-action shotgun (think Elmer Fudd). When it’s opened, it ejects the shells automatically to make room for the 2 new ones you’ll presumably be inserting next.
And when you’ve used one enough to make it into the Olympics, snatching the spent shells out of midair is probably a piece of cake. Damn nice photo to catch it with the smoking shells and all, tho.

And a nice flourish. Wouldn’t the brass part of the shell still be freakin’ hot, though?
Nope! You actually pull ‘em out using that part if the shells fail to eject automatically.
Thank you for Burphel for the explanation. I didn’t know that shotguns had an eject feature. I was trying to figure WTF was going on. Even though I love the whole Jedi angle in the pic. The upraised hand make it look real cool.
why the hell are people using shotguns in the olympics?
(this is not meant to be answered)
Rotated 90 degrees, it’s a reenactment of the matrix.
It’s obvious that this guy gets a gold medal in this event.
Hmmm… Looks like a Canada cap so I am going to guess it is young Mr. Giuseppe Di Salvatore from Vancouver. From CBC’s website: “Only 18, he’s Canada’s top male trap shooter. Di Salvatore is a teenager competing in a sport where athletes typically peak in their 30s. He’ll likely be the youngest shooter at the Beijing Olympic Games.”
guns don’t kill people…the Olympics do!
Epicness
OLYMPICS WIN!!
Doomguy would be proud. Give that man the demons of Hell to kill!
