does it hurt this much

[elite204]

are these normal shots with a paintball gun or did they do something special http://youtube.com/watch?v=vx7ZyX_87zM

It's hard to tell since they didn't remove the paint. With bare skin, they will differ from shots with clothes on. They may bleed, they may not, but you will not die. The adrenaline should calm the pain down.

I think they could have their guns over 300fps, anyway it doesnt hurt that much.

It's different when you're in a game and all of your adrenaline is pumping through you. It also depends on what kind of paint they're shooting and what fps it's set at.

Velocity and distance have a lot to do with the pain, but it doesn't hurt that bad.

You aren't going to get hit and scream "MEDIC!!!".

Ever been whipped really hard by a towel? Thats most likely the worst it will feel.

When you get hit theres a quick strong stinging sensation (especially with torso or upper leg hits) that last about 10-20 seconds and then quickly dissipates. Now the bruises and welts last a week or two but they dont hurt unless you're really poking at them.

Just dont do what the shirtless idiot in the video did and you'll be fine.

He had his shirt off, so it hurt more than if he had on a shirt or two. He also got shot from a pretty close distance which would add to the sting.

And to add to this, the gun was probably shooting hot, as well.

Sometimes when I'm hit I barely noitice it at all. It's the shock of getting hit more than the actual impact I think. Except for that guy. That hurt. The gun was probably shooting hot, he had his shirt off, and they were pretty damn close. No hit in a normal game would feel that bad unless your were really up close and personal, someone had raised their gun illegally, and you weren't wearin clothes while playing. Even then, you'll live. I'd say the shot a normal person takes might be about 1/4 maybe of what that guy took.

Anywho, that guy was an idiot, it's one thing to screw around, it's another to do so without a mask. You'll notice after getting hit and going down on about the 4th shot,he almost turned around and could been nailed in the eye. At the end any one of those kids coulda bumped the trigger since it wasn't on safe and shot a paintball anywhere on accident, not just in that guy's gut at the end. Add this to the fact that if the gun weren't a cheap POS, if it were an electopnumatic, they could hav easily accidentally sent 3-4 or more balls flying anywhere with a gentle nudge.

Wear a mask people!!!!
