Ukrainian Soldier Peaks Window to Fire and Nearly Gets Head Taken Off

Cell phone video from Bakhmut captures the moment a Ukrainian Soldier peaks a window to start firing on Russian positions. Seconds after he starts shooting, an incoming round impacts less than an inch above his head.


If you've ever though training could outpace the chaos of war, lets this video serve as evidence to the contrary. You can spend your entire life training to the highest degrees of warfare, and in a split second your entire life can end from a lucky shot. On the contrary, you can spend very little time training and have a moment just like this where you get a pass from the universe to try again at a later date.


Training helps, but sometimes it's all about luck.
