Oh, man, that's SOOOOOOOOOO awesome!!! I wish we had a bunch of morons smearing the safety of our sport on TV for the entire world to see all the time! That's hilarious!

But then again, you don't get Steve Blackly complaining when Zulu is on the TV at christmas.
"Dear points of view, as the ex British olympic javelin champion I was disgusted to see..................."

Anyway, everyone loved wossy getting shot in the ass on TV.......so why not this. He was deliberately hurt for entertainment, you can't have it both ways.

lol... i had to make my popint sound reasonable!

builders safety specs? We all thought it was really funny (it was) and anyone who complained was flamed. Dirty Sanchez etc..... don't do anything for the sport, but then again, were they playing it? as players we know where it was filmed. But joe public just sees nuggets in a forest. Anyone complain about casino for it's negative portrayal of baseball? or police camera action for it's negative portrayal of motor sports? nope, it's just funny.
If Nexus had come on shooting each other in the happy sacs in team kit, then that portrays paintball in a bad light. Naked welshmen and cockneys getting shot in the tadge says more about wales and cockneys than paintball

is gettin shot in the throat a risk?


it must be..... hmmmmm

 

[JoseDominguez]

yup, nice bunch of nerve endings there called baroreceptors.....(One of the almost fictional "pressure points" that is real) but not as risky as most other sports that involve a knock in the throat.........rugby, football even squash. Plus, all the millions of paintballs fired in the last ten years........no cases of a legitimately used paintball causing a major injury (not including lifted goggles) just that bloke with the inflated scrote
In theory it could do you some damage, but most other sports have a lot more scope for injury.
