Getting Shot By a Paintball Gun Ain’t So Bad: Three Things Worse to Get Shot With Pt. 1

I am sick of people complaining about how much it hurts to get hit when shot at with a paintball gun. In the grand scope of things to get shot at by, paintball guns are one of the least painful. If you need some examples to think about next time you are on the paintball field flinching at the sound of every paintball shot, read on for a list of things much worse to be at by than a paintball gun.

Cannon:

Be lucky that there are very few cannon’s still in proper working condition today. When many people think about cannon’s they think of the common projectile shot out of it, the round shot cannon ball. These solid projectiles where often used as naval guns to sink ships more often than directly hit men, but it was also known for being successful for land breaching as the round shot could break through a rank of men as well as bounce when it hit the ground, allowing it to continue its path of destruction. Because of the round shape of the cannon ball, it was the most accurate cannon projectile. If a giant, heavy iron ball hitting you in the chest at more than 20 miles per hour doesn’t strike fear in your heart, consider the firing of shrapnel from a cannon. Commonly used to rain down smaller iron balls and other materials on the heads of enemies, death by cannon shrapnel would not be a pretty or painless way to go.

Captive bolt pistol aka bolt gun or cattle gun:

The captive bolt pistol received a certain amount of infamy as the weapon-of-choice for the ultimate evil character Anton Chigurh in the Coen Brothers’ film, “No Country for Old Men.” This small and powerful device was created for use in slaughterhouses to stun cattle, goats, sheep and horses in preparation for slaughter. The idea behind the cattle gun was that it would stun the animal by destroying the cerebrum of the brain, but leaving the brain stem intact, thus allowing the animal’s heart to continue to beat, which would keep the animal alive but unconscious during the bleeding and butchering process, which was good to keep the meat from spoiling. You can imagine that the use of a cattle gun on a human would be a very messy and unpleasant experience, even if the gun is of the non-penetrating style, meaning the bolt does not actually pierce the skull and physically destroy the brain tissue.

Blow $8.39 Rated: RSynopsis: Based on Bruce Porter's biography of the same name, Blow tells the story of real-life drug kingpin George Jung (Johnny Depp), a working-class kid from New England who turned America on to the magic powder that made disco come alive. Echoing the trajectory of a cocaine high, the sunny euphoria of Jung's early days in the 1960s selling pot on Southern California beaches gives way to the manic, teeth-grinding frenzy of his big-scale coke smuggling during the 1970s, when he hooked up with Columbian Pablo Escobar's powerful Medellin cartel. By the mid-'80s, as arrests and betrayals send Jung's billion-dollar empire crashing down, his life becomes one long cocaine hangover. Breezily told, Blow dispenses with major chunks of story through rapid-fire, Goodfellas-like montages as Jung narrates in voice-over; much of the fun comes from checking out Depp's ever-changing array of period costumes and hairdos as the movie hurtles through the decades. Director Ted Demme slows the action down for Jung's periodic visits with his loving but ineffectual father (Ray Liotta) and his shrewish mother (Rachel Griffiths), who salivates over her son's ill-gotten gains, then later turns him in to the police. These scenes with the parents are meant to provide the key to Jung's character: In his marriage to Mirtha -- a Columbian bombshell (Penelope Cruz) who quickly goes from fantasy babe to coke-snorting, money-grubbing harridan -- we witness the reenactment of his family history. But it's never clear how Jung, who seems neither ruthless nor particularly smart, rises so high in a trade dominated by vicious, machine gun-toting drug lords. It's a testimony to Depp's immense appeal as a performer -- his ability to undercut his breathtaking good looks with a self-effacing sweetness -- that he manages to make us care about a character that we never really get a handle on. Blow hammers home its point that crime doesn't pay, but by the end we have so much sympathy for Depp that we almost wish that it did. Kryssa SchemmerlingFollowing the life of cocaine-trafficking pioneer George Jung in a way that recalls Martin Scorsese's Casino, Blow recounts the man's days from his 1950s childhood in Boston to his downfall in the 1980s. George (played by Johnny Depp) begins his life as the son of Fred (Ray Liotta), an earnest breadwinner, and Ermine (Rachel Griffiths), who frequently walks out on them in pursuit of a more fulfilling life. When George moves west to California in the late '60s, accompanied by best pal Tuna (Ethan Suplee), he becomes an entrepreneur in the marijuana business, which soon spreads to the East Coast as well, with girlfriend Barbara (Franka Potente) smuggling the product during her stewardess shifts. George is arrested in 1972 -- at which time Barbara dies of cancer -- but George finds a new ally in Diego (Jordi Molla), who proposes the idea that he become the American conduit for Colombian kingpin Pablo Escobar (Cliff Curtis). George flourishes in t
