stingray shooting stinger???
- Thread starter heatha
- Start date
Now when we tell people we have stingrays after they say "You mean the things that killed Steve Irwin?" they will follow up with "How do you keep them from shooting you with there stingers?".
LMAO!
lol, if i had to guess, i'd say the 8 ft is bs. what kid would stand 8 ft away from something that's caught their attention? if anything, that kid was standing within arms reach when they were ripping the stinger off, and the guys tension combined with the release of the barb from being yanked on, the guy followed through before he could stop his arm and stabbed the kid. it's not like the barb got loaded into a gun and shot at the kid. to put 3 inches of it into him and only leave an inch outside of his body requires much more inertia and force than is capable from it being flung at him considering its weight.
To get the barb THAT deep, you'd need to still be holding it and force it in. My guess (if it WAS that deep), kid was looking over the guy's shoulder and the barb was still pinched in the pliars as it pushed in.
I put the other idea to the test by throwing barbs (bigger than the one in question) against kitchen grade plastic wrap at close range. I couldn't even tear the wrap., let along put 3" of the barb through it. I'd love to see enough protest to have an article published about the lying family looking for attention. No better than the kid in the hot air balloon last year.
