Wow, that was really, really graphic! I have a strong stomach, but it feels pretty weak right now. He's lucky to be alive.

Don't you think the video looked too good to be true? The blood looked fake to me.

My initial thoughts too. What really made me wonder is how the camera fell perfectly to catch the action on the ground.

I don't know, looked pretty real to me.
