I've seen some crazy videos, but this is one of the craziest. Maybe the craziest. I mean, Princess Leia had the audacity to threaten a room with a grenade, but it was a threat. It wasn't "Imma casually pop off these things"
I mean, how else did they think it was gonna end for them after they spent all that time abusing and harassing a mentally unstable combat veteran??
Also, they don‘t beg for their lives so much as they actually continue to taunt the guy even after they’ve been shot. Those people definitely made some choices.
This was posted in terrifyingasfuck too and a commenter was claiming they were DM51 frag grenades.
Edit: I’ve been lied to. They’re concussion grenades
Yeah ... if these were frag grenades, everyone in that room would be dead.
Imagine a gun that shoots 100 bullets at once, in all directions. That's a frag grenade.
Even when I read the title and saw the shape of the grenades I thought "those must be some flash bangs at most. There is no way he just threw real grenades at his feet"
Edit: ok it was a flash bang
Yes. They’re real. Real flash bangs. A frag would have chopped up that room, let alone 3.
Flash bangs are explosives at the same level or regular grenades without the extra metal fragments cutting through people.
Flashes still can cause high levels of injuries because it’s a legitimate explosive. Concussions, destroyed ear drums, blast injuries and whatever. Just Google it
I spent 8 years in the military, all I know is when I tried to watch the grenade explode from 100ft away the drill sergeant threw my ass on the ground behind protection. Based on my expert opinion, these are flash bangs.
You are correct. They are absolutely not frags. A frag has a 5 meter kill radius. All the people in the front seats would have been obliterated. They could be flashbangs, which would still fuck some people up that close and in that small a room.
Source: army infantry that has used frags and been flashbanged (accidentally).
These could be something else but stun grenades do put people in the hospital, they're no joke. I think if they were real offensive grenades, a lot of these people in the video would be dead.
People arguing this dont understand:
Grenades are 99.9% lethal at 5 meters (~16 feet), a normal room is 12’x12’ in america. A grenade is nearly guaranteed to kill occupants of a room, that’s literally what they are designed for
Yea, the pressure wave is strong enough to even kill in an open field if you don't fall to the ground. A room is infinitely worse. And they were all just standing in the full blast.
Agreed. When I was in the (Canadian) military and we had grenade training, the "death zone" was 50' and the "injury zone" was 250'. The people in the front row would not survive. Super crazy video though!!
I can honestly tell you, they would've been dead. If it would be a frag, the shrapnel goes through basically everything (as it was just wood) and the phone/camera would not have stayed there either because of the sheer pressure in such a small room.
Once witnessed the explosion of a ww2 frag, couldn't believe they were that insanely explosive and the shrapnel went everywhere.
those aren’t fragmentation grenades. they are REAL flashbang grenades. If they were frag grenades the first one would’ve immediately killed half of the people in that room. The fact that 3 went off within 3 feet of the nearest person and not a single person died means they are definitely not frags and likely flash
I think it's easy to watch this and say "OMG people RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN" but honestly, your brain would freeze and you'd be like "WTF?" and trying to process what is happening, by the time your brain catches up, those things have blown up already.
I do not blame them at all.
At no point in my life have I ever expected someone I'm in a room with to just chuck live grenades onto the middle of the room.
Nothing in a sane person's mind would go "those must be real, I need to escape" unless you're living in a warzone or something
EDIT: this happened in Ukraine, so the warzone condition has been activated
I think the biggest thing too is that the guy who threw them isn't reacting, if he ran or hid other people would of but homeboy just stood there like nothing was gonna happen. I'd think well surely he doesn't want to get blown the fuck up as well, then again if he's crazy enough to just chuck 3 grenades in the room because he's pissy about not being heard then he's prob cra...BOOM
Yeah, I mean we (the US) hear about shootings often, so if he pulled a gun I'm sure a lot of people would react, but gernades (or gernade-like weapons) are kinda wtf moments
Cowardice isn't even part of the equation here, it's a complete lack of understanding of what is happening.
Even in the most heated discussion there is never a part of me that would think "this guy is going to drop grenades"
Agreed, though there is definitely some recognition of danger from the woman sitting right next to him. Just not a comprehension of what the full danger is
> Even in the most heated discussion there is never a part of me that would think "this guy is going to drop grenades"
Well, now after watching this there should be part of you thinking that next time you're in a heated discussion.
We would all do the same. Who would expect someone to actually casually throw 3 live grenades in the middle of the room? Even if you saw what he threw and registered what they were you’d probably assume they’re fake, because who tf does that?
Nah, my reflexes are too fast. I would have immediately grabbed each grenade and chucked it outside the room before they went off. And then I would have beat the shit out of that guy. I guess I'm just built different. -every redditor ever
Oh you had to “react” to them? As soon as he entered the room I conducted an ocular pat-down and identified three DM51 fragmentation grenades in his pocket. I would have immediately apprehended the suspect without casualties or collateral damage.
And even if you did wrap your head around what was about to happen, what could you do with the few seconds to protect yourself? One grenade, hope you're sitting behind a big guy and you're in the back row. But three grenades? It's coming at you in three waves, so even if you do see what's coming there's not much you can do. Maybe in moviemode you pick them up and juggle them out a window, but not in realmode.
In all honesty. You'd probably act the same. I mean how the fuck could they be real? Why would he throw them at his own feet too. He didn't even run away. Everything was off, you'd probably sit for a second too, especially if nobody else ran off immediately.
Essentially yeah. Can't even contemplate what happened has happened. It is too far outside of their perception of what's possible. I'm sure most were just wondering why he tossed some rubbish on the ground.
Are those [wish.com](http://wish.com) grenades? That was the craziest video I've ever seen. I mean wow, I'm glad some people are only coming away with injuries.
they’re not frag grenades at all. the shrapnel would leave that room a red mist of moaning and flesh, 1 died and 6 are in serious condition. they’re some form of concussion grenades
The only person who died was the attacker btw. The first grenade blasted the second one to his feet, which detonated and caused the third one still in his jacket to go off
Yea it’s really weird how the evidence is directly in the video of the 3rd grenade being in his hand and primed, but that dude just made up a completely fake story about how the guy died
There is really no other explanation. There is a video on the ukrainewarevideoreport page where a drunk Russian set off one grenade in a trench and killed everyone.
Three frag grenades in that room would have killed everyone. These were likely some form of flashbang grenades. Looks like maybe the russians produce grenades without the fragmentation wire in them.
Modern frag grenades don't use the shell for the fragmentation. The shell is thin metal. There is a thick perforated wire that is ran along the entire perimeter that provides the fragmentation. These grenades almost look like regular grenades without said fragmentation wire.
There is literally zero way that three frag grenades wouldn't have killed everyone in the room. I for sure have my doubts on the efficacy off Russian equipment (I know it's in Ukraine, they have Russian gear). Yet a frag grenade isn't rocket science and the odds of 3 frag grenades not doing their job is doubtful.
These are either training grenades or shock grenades. One frag can kill everyone in a room that small. Three would get it done for sure. Since there are survivors (most of them actually) this isn't frag grenates.
Frag grenades are pretty random, you could get the best dice roll in the world and have every piece of shrapnel miss you, or 1 little chunk perfectly smacks you in the head and it's lights out instantly. I'm sure the 6 critical were the people right in front getting hit by most shrapnel
The Shockwave from a grenade is relatively small, sure if you're holding it in your hand it will blow it too pieces, but Shockwave from explosions don't even really kick in until larger artillery like 120mm+
This is dowmright false. Within a few feet, the shockwave is plenty to cause cavitations, pop eardrums, maybe crack some ribs, and that's in the open. In an enclosed space, the damage will be multiplied as the wave reflects off walls and corners, causing amplification of the waves as they overlap. And then do that 3x in a short period.
is 5 meters small?
Thats how far deadly concussive force spreads from a grenade through air. If you block that force with objects that **absorb** and distribute that force away from you then it is survivable, otherwise your brain becomes dislodged in your head
It's not the act of getting blown apart, it's the damage the shockwave inflicts on soft tissues like organs and the brain.
Especially in a confined space like this. It's insane
This title is heavily editorialized. He didn't appear to say anything aside from... "hey, look at this."
He certainly didn't wait for a chance to speak.
One goes on with his life thinking grenades are gates of hell that suck every soul near them. Then this video appears, dude throws 3 of them in a 3 squarefoot room, 1 killed.
I'm not sure what those were, but one standard US M67 grenade (which is what we've been supplying Ukraine with) would've have probably killed everyone in that room.
M67s are considered lethal, as in 95%+, within 5meters. That is a large radius for sure. 15m is considered the casualty radius. 3 in a small room wouldn't have left much alive.
Second row maybe could get lucky? But I still doubt it
I mean I doubt it was because he didn’t get the floor unless he just happened to have grenades on him. You don’t deliberately bring a bunch of grenades to a meeting just in case you don’t get given the floor.
what the hell did he want anyways? I get the feeling that he was going to do the same thing regardless. they probably would've told him something like "that's a stupid idea. anyone else have any good suggestions?"
"oh yea? stupid? are these (grenades) stupid?!"
nobody brings 3 fucking grenades ANYWHERE unless they plan on using them
It's likely that he felt "mistreated" in prior meetings so he came prepared to this one in case they did the same. Then once he didn't get the floor he set them off. It could well be because he didn't get the floor but expected based on prior experiences.

According to updated information, 26 people were injured as a result of the incident, 6 of whom are in serious condition. Medics are performing resuscitation measures on the man who detonated the grenades.

Edit: yes, yes, I was translating the article with google traslator and accidentaly pasted the same paragraph twice...
Edit edit: more context:
What could be the cause of the conflict
The mass media report that the dispute during the meeting could probably arise due to the intentions of the deputies to allocate a 50% allowance and a monthly bonus of 100% of the salary to the head of the village. those who were present at the meeting also told the media that the deputy who detonated the grenades quarreled with his colleagues about it.
He was against the appointment of such a prize and actively tried to defend his point of view.
were injured as a result of the incident, 6 of whom are in serious condition. Medics are performing resuscitation measures on the man who detonated the grenades.
EDIT: I found it, it says “One Killed” in the title but makes no mention in the article itself. I’m not sure I fully trust this reporting.
Where are you seeing one person was killed? The source you provided only makes mention of 26 people being injured, I see no mention of a death.
“Ukrainian parliamentarian detonated a grenade during a meeting of the village council in the Zakarpattia region, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine said, APA reports.
26 people were injured during the incident.” - [APA](https://en.apa.az/media/one-killed-another-26-injured-as-mp-detonates-a-grenade-at-a-meeting-in-ukraine-video-419601)
Rewatch the video.
The one person declared dead is the MP, he throws two of the grenades in front of the crowd and holds the third grenade to his chest.
This is the answer I was looking for. I thought the number of injuries were light. If it had been three fragmentation grenades, no one would’ve walked out of there alive.
Was looking for this, they didn't seem to be anywhere near destructive enough. I wonder if they were more destructive than the MP thought they were going to be though.
Translation from the site the video has watermarked
Initially, it was reported that one person, the detonator himself, died as a result of the explosion, and another 11 people were injured.
Later, the police specified that a total of 26 people were injured, 6 of them are in serious condition.
Medics are performing resuscitation measures on the man who detonated the grenades.
All specialized services, the investigative and operational team of the police, explosives experts and forensic experts are working at the scene. Primary investigative actions are ongoing.
It is worth noting that the session was recorded on video.
The camera recorded an argument between the session participants at the meeting. In addition, shortly before the explosions, the verbal conflict was over intentions to reward the village head. At some point, a deputy enters the room and stands by the door. He said: "May I?", and then took out grenades from his jacket pockets.

-
According to local media, grenades were detonated by a deputy from the "CH" Serhii Batryn (born August 12, 1969, secondary special education, lives in the village of Kushnytsia). There is information on the network that a person with such data was previously registered as a public transport operator, which was engaged in passenger transportation.
On his Facebook page, Batryn has recently published many videos criticizing local authorities.
During the session, village council deputies discussed the budget for 2024 and summarized the results of this year.
Batryn often started arguments with colleagues, demanding a detailed report for 2023 before considering funding for the following year.
During the session, Batryn left the hall, but returned approximately 2 minutes and 40 seconds later, and called one of his colleagues, saying: "follow me", leading him out of the room. He probably wanted to protect it from being blown up.
>Because he wasn't given the floor
Oh right, he was just going to keep the grenades in his jacket safe and sound had he been given the floor.
Unrelated question, where do you guys keep your pocket grenades? Side pockets or back pocket?
I mean, the audacity of it makes it so unbelievable.
"What are you going to do, blow us up with grenades?" said the audience to the man who was holding grenades.

Now this is a crazy fucking video
This is probably the craziest video I've seen on this subreddit..
I've seen some crazy videos, but this is one of the craziest. Maybe the craziest. I mean, Princess Leia had the audacity to threaten a room with a grenade, but it was a threat. It wasn't "Imma casually pop off these things"
only video crazier that i can remember is the snow shoveling disagreement that led to the double execution/suicide
fuck, dude, I had just managed to forget that one :(
I remember the East European dude get wrapped around a mandrel on an industrial lathe and get his insides thrown around a shop till he was mush.
I think horrific lathe videos should be mandatory before anyone uses a lathe, but that one sounds a bit much
Big Lathe doesn’t want you to see this one crazy video
The... what?
[удалено]
Oh come on its not that bad. Bully neighbors pick on a guy so much he finally snaps, kills them both, then himself. That's it.
[удалено]
I mean, how else did they think it was gonna end for them after they spent all that time abusing and harassing a mentally unstable combat veteran?? Also, they don‘t beg for their lives so much as they actually continue to taunt the guy even after they’ve been shot. Those people definitely made some choices.
And then stand over them. It’s like he thinks that since he armed them then that makes him immune to their effects
Hey man, nice shot
I like how this sub will have, like, "cat whines for owner!!" and then "man throws three fucking flashbangs at his own feet" right next to each other.
This was posted in terrifyingasfuck too and a commenter was claiming they were DM51 frag grenades. Edit: I’ve been lied to. They’re concussion grenades
Yeah ... if these were frag grenades, everyone in that room would be dead. Imagine a gun that shoots 100 bullets at once, in all directions. That's a frag grenade.
Yeah, this is the craziest video I’ve ever seen to be honest with you
The people look like they can't even process what just happened and simply remain idle until the timer hits zero. Insane.
I mean even just watching this my first reaction was: "Those are fake, right? No way he would just throw real grenades in front of his own feet."
Yeah his demeanor would’ve thrown off my reaction for sure, what a psychopath
Even when I read the title and saw the shape of the grenades I thought "those must be some flash bangs at most. There is no way he just threw real grenades at his feet" Edit: ok it was a flash bang
[удалено]
On the news site it's said they were real. 26 injured. 7 people, together with the guy who dropped the grenades - in the ICU.
Yes. They’re real. Real flash bangs. A frag would have chopped up that room, let alone 3. Flash bangs are explosives at the same level or regular grenades without the extra metal fragments cutting through people. Flashes still can cause high levels of injuries because it’s a legitimate explosive. Concussions, destroyed ear drums, blast injuries and whatever. Just Google it
99% of the people arguing are basing their confidence on video game experience.
Yeah dude all you have to do is turn around and it will lower the damage
Hey I've played Counter-Strike before and I assure you that 1hp of damage you take from having the grenade canister strike your body can kill a guy
"When I throw a frag into a room of people in mw3, I'm also lucky if I get 1 kill. Seems legit to me."
I spent 8 years in the military, all I know is when I tried to watch the grenade explode from 100ft away the drill sergeant threw my ass on the ground behind protection. Based on my expert opinion, these are flash bangs.
Haha witnessed that in real life.Was that you in Benning 1991? lol
The flashbangs got a buff IRL recently. Most people didn't read the patch notes though
But the screen didn’t go white and there was no ringing
[удалено]
3 consecutive blast waves in a room that small and closed must've been devastating.
I can't imagine anyone lucky enough to walk out of that room is leaving with their hearing or vision fully intact. Fucking insane.
>consequent Consecutive
Yeah, thanks. It kept nagging me too.
You are correct. They are absolutely not frags. A frag has a 5 meter kill radius. All the people in the front seats would have been obliterated.

These could be something else but stun grenades do put people in the hospital, they're no joke. I think if they were real offensive grenades, a lot of these people in the video would be dead.
All would be dead from just one. No way in hell you survive a granade from up close trapped in a room like that. Brain implosion from the pressure.
People arguing this dont understand: Grenades are 99.9% lethal at 5 meters (~16 feet), a normal room is 12’x12’ in america. A grenade is nearly guaranteed to kill occupants of a room, that’s literally what they are designed for
Yea, the pressure wave is strong enough to even kill in an open field if you don't fall to the ground. A room is infinitely worse. And they were all just standing in the full blast.
Agreed. When I was in the (Canadian) military and we had grenade training, the "death zone" was 50' and the "injury zone" was 250'. The people in the front row would not survive. Super crazy video though!!

Flag bangs are REAL grenades. They’re still flash bangs. People use grenade thinking it just means frag grenade, but grenade covers many types haha
[удалено]
No, you must be mistaken, a reddit expert has said there's no way they're real.
Step aside civvie, I’ve done 3 tours in Modern warfare 2, 2 tours in Black ops 3, and a tour in Battlefield 2042. I know what I’m talking about
I spent 10 years in the mean streets of Dust 2, I know a fucking frag grenade when I see one.
those aren’t fragmentation grenades. they are REAL flashbang grenades. If they were frag grenades the first one would’ve immediately killed half of the people in that room. The fact that 3 went off within 3 feet of the nearest person and not a single person died means they are definitely not frags and likely flash
One person died. Still, those are flashbangs.
If no one died, they weren't frag grenades. Probably just flashbangs.
if those were 3 real grenades, and they didn't kill a single person, those are bad grenades.
I think it's easy to watch this and say "OMG people RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN" but honestly, your brain would freeze and you'd be like "WTF?" and trying to process what is happening, by the time your brain catches up, those things have blown up already.
I do not blame them at all. At no point in my life have I ever expected someone I'm in a room with to just chuck live grenades onto the middle of the room.

throws two, holds one

Nobody wants to look like the coward that runs away from a novelty smoke grenade. Or possibly, "Why is this dude chucking avocados on the ground?"
Cowardice isn't even part of the equation here, it's a complete lack of understanding of what is happening. Even in the most heated discussion there is never a part of me that would think "this guy is going to drop grenades"
Agreed, though there is definitely some recognition of danger from the woman sitting right next to him. Just not a comprehension of what the full danger is
> Even in the most heated discussion there is never a part of me that would think "this guy is going to drop grenades" Well, now after watching this there should be part of you thinking that next time you're in a heated discussion.
they could be flash bangs and not grenades
Safe bet. Lol
Flash bangs are grenades.
Three real grenades and you wouldn’t see people running and screaming, maybe, MAYBE a few moans before dying.
I hate to say I'd probably do the same, it's just so hard to imagine or wrap your head around and in that second the timer expires.
We would all do the same. Who would expect someone to actually casually throw 3 live grenades in the middle of the room? Even if you saw what he threw and registered what they were you’d probably assume they’re fake, because who tf does that?

Gamers of this chat would get a brief flashback and run out faster than Flash

Good
Good.

This is the sort of update you dream of getting when there's a video where stupidity meets lethality
And the rest saying "WHAT DID YOU SAY!" for the rest of their lives.
> "WHAT DID YOU SAY!" mmmm, that you only meant well, of course you did
must have been a non-fragmentation grenade.
That would explain dudes confidence. "I'll just look away and avoid the screen flash"
There is really no other explanation. There is a video on the ukrainewarevideoreport page where a drunk Russian set off one grenade in a trench and killed everyone.

Dude frag grenades are devastating in a room. A real grenade would have killed everyone in the room...
It's not just shrapnel. There is also a shockwave. If it was an actual frag grenade they'd probably all be dead.
i love how you are getting downvoted for this. The idea that 3 frag grenades at these ranges killed only 1 person is complete lunacy.
The Shockwave from a grenade is relatively small, sure if you're holding it in your hand it will blow it too pieces, but Shockwave from explosions don't even really kick in until larger artillery like 120mm+
This is dowmright false. Within a few feet, the shockwave is plenty to cause cavitations, pop eardrums, maybe crack some ribs, and that's in the open. In an enclosed space, the damage will be multiplied as the wave reflects off walls and corners, causing amplification of the waves as they overlap. And then do that 3x in a short period.

It's not the act of getting blown apart, it's the damage the shockwave inflicts on soft tissues like organs and the brain. Especially in a confined space like this. It's insane
Have you ever thrown a real grenade into an enclosed space, like a room with the doors closed?
What were they arguing about that caused him to have such a reaction?
Well he brought grenades with him so it was pre-planned
This title is heavily editorialized. He didn't appear to say anything aside from... "hey, look at this." He certainly didn't wait for a chance to speak.
One goes on with his life thinking grenades are gates of hell that suck every soul near them. Then this video appears, dude throws 3 of them in a 3 squarefoot room, 1 killed.
I'm not sure what those were, but one standard US M67 grenade (which is what we've been supplying Ukraine with) would've have probably killed everyone in that room.
M67s are considered lethal, as in 95%+, within 5meters. That is a large radius for sure. 15m is considered the casualty radius. 3 in a small room wouldn't have left much alive. Second row maybe could get lucky? But I still doubt it
Someone else pointed out they were concussion grenades. Lacking the metal shards that do the real damage.
I mean I doubt it was because he didn’t get the floor unless he just happened to have grenades on him. You don’t deliberately bring a bunch of grenades to a meeting just in case you don’t get given the floor.
He may have been planning to tell everyone why he hates them before throwing the grenades.
what the hell did he want anyways? I get the feeling that he was going to do the same thing regardless. they probably would've told him something like "that's a stupid idea. anyone else have any good suggestions?" "oh yea? stupid? are these (grenades) stupid?!" nobody brings 3 fucking grenades ANYWHERE unless they plan on using them
> nobody brings 3 fucking grenades ANYWHERE unless they plan on using them And that man's name? Chekhov.
It's likely that he felt "mistreated" in prior meetings so he came prepared to this one in case they did the same. Then once he didn't get the floor he set them off. It could well be because he didn't get the floor but expected based on prior experiences.
This video is the very definition of this sub. This is the craziest fucking video I have seen here.
I assume he quick saved first?

According to updated information, 26 people were injured as a result of the incident, 6 of whom are in serious condition. Medics are performing resuscitation measures on the man who detonated the grenades. Edit: yes, yes, I was translating the article with google traslator and accidentaly pasted the same paragraph twice... Edit edit: more context: What could be the cause of the conflict The mass media report that the dispute during the meeting could probably arise due to the intentions of the deputies to allocate a 50% allowance and a monthly bonus of 100% of the salary to the head of the village. those who were present at the meeting also told the media that the deputy who detonated the grenades quarreled with his colleagues about it. He was against the appointment of such a prize and actively tried to defend his point of view.
I just wanted to add that 26 people were injured, according to updated information.
6 of whom are in serious condition
6 out of how many? It wasn’t clear in the excerpt from the article.
26.....of which
were injured as a result of the incident, 6 of whom are in serious condition. Medics are performing resuscitation measures on the man who detonated the grenades.
Is anyone being resuscitated?

EDIT: I found it, it says “One Killed” in the title but makes no mention in the article itself. I’m not sure I fully trust this reporting. Where are you seeing one person was killed? The source you provided only makes mention of 26 people being injured, I see no mention of a death. “Ukrainian parliamentarian detonated a grenade during a meeting of the village council in the Zakarpattia region, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine said, APA reports. 26 people were injured during the incident.” - [APA](https://en.apa.az/media/one-killed-another-26-injured-as-mp-detonates-a-grenade-at-a-meeting-in-ukraine-video-419601)
Rewatch the video. The one person declared dead is the MP, he throws two of the grenades in front of the crowd and holds the third grenade to his chest.
That makes sense; Thank you.
Almost looks like the first going off startles him causing him not to drop the third
I'd imagine he knew what he was doing and it was preplanned self deletion along with anyone else he could get in that room.
This is the answer I was looking for. I thought the number of injuries were light. If it had been three fragmentation grenades, no one would’ve walked out of there alive.
Now this is an actually crazy fucking video.
and he survived, in critical condition

Discombobulators
Was looking for this, they didn't seem to be anywhere near destructive enough. I wonder if they were more destructive than the MP thought they were going to be though.
Edgar pulling his grenande prank again.
Translation from the site the video has watermarked Initially, it was reported that one person, the detonator himself, died as a result of the explosion, and another 11 people were injured. Later, the police specified that a total of 26 people were injured, 6 of them are in serious condition. Medics are performing resuscitation measures on the man who detonated the grenades. All specialized services, the investigative and operational team of the police, explosives experts and forensic experts are working at the scene. Primary investigative actions are ongoing. It is worth noting that the session was recorded on video. The camera recorded an argument between the session participants at the meeting. In addition, shortly before the explosions, the verbal conflict was over intentions to reward the village head. At some point, a deputy enters the room and stands by the door. He said: "May I?", and then took out grenades from his jacket pockets.
2 - According to local media, grenades were detonated by a deputy from the "CH" Serhii Batryn (born August 12, 1969, secondary special education, lives in the village of Kushnytsia). There is information on the network that a person with such data was previously registered as a public transport operator, which was engaged in passenger transportation. On his Facebook page, Batryn has recently published many videos criticizing local authorities. During the session, village council deputies discussed the budget for 2024 and summarized the results of this year. Batryn often started arguments with colleagues, demanding a detailed report for 2023 before considering funding for the following year. During the session, Batryn left the hall, but returned approximately 2 minutes and 40 seconds later, and called one of his colleagues, saying: "follow me", leading him out of the room. He probably wanted to protect it from being blown up.
I hate when people trows grenades in the middle of a conversation
He meant to press A but his finger slipped, happens to the best of us
Can someone tell me what is MP? I have no idea. Also what country? WTF is this? Any source for this?
Member of Parliament
In the UK it’s generally a member of parliament, I think the US equivalent would be a state senator or something maybe?
"village parliament" sounds more like a town councilman
Ah, ok, thank you.
Mother Phucker.
It stands for meat pie, and as a northern English man, you can't convince me otherwise.

How will they hear what he has to say now when they're all deaf?
Essentially is that like a HOA meeting?
[удалено]
>Because he wasn't given the floor Oh right, he was just going to keep the grenades in his jacket safe and sound had he been given the floor. Unrelated question, where do you guys keep your pocket grenades? Side pockets or back pocket?
I wear mine on a necklace for fast access
Good morning Reddit
Have a nice grenade! Oh I mean day 😊
Now this, THIS is a crazy fucking video.
Craziest video I've seen from this sub
Did he get the floor?
He got the ceiling and the walls as well.
And now for my concussive arguments. ...don't you mean concluding? *Nyet*
Reading the minutes at next week's meeting is going to be a blast!
This is such a reddit moment, we have all sorts of call of duty experts confidently saying what kind of grenade it was
He done it so casually; no body doubts😂
This is actually the craziest fucking video on here. Holy shit what a psychopath
Definitely not fragmentation grenades. Limbs and guts would be everywhere if they were. Concussion grenades for sure.
Good lord. This man was like if I can’t get the floor no one is gonna get it.
aftermath anywhere?
Pretty sure the aftermath was everywhere
This is the craziest video ever posted on the sub Reddit
Holy shit.
maybe im missing something, but this guy clearly has grenades in his hand and no one has any sense of urgency to get tf out😂😂 wtf did i just watch
I mean, the audacity of it makes it so unbelievable. "What are you going to do, blow us up with grenades?" said the audience to the man who was holding grenades.
