Wow! Mine-blowing!
MrNobodyLivesHere
But we are talking about the same army that dug trenches in Chernobyl.....
Scottyswans
They can probably be upgraded to mine-proof when there's none around
ChickenSnizort
I would assume that the shot was staged so they could get some stock footage. Showing them sweeping from behind is less engaging.

This takes a moment to hit, but when it does...it's a goodie.
FlamedLion
I find it interesting how these arm bands have been adopted by both sides to try and prevent friendly fire incidents
areis30
are they just waving sticks around or is that a metal detector from WWII, like their guns??
DonaldMerwinElbertAKATrashCanMan
in fact its not that they are mine resistant, they are simple expendable like anyone over there... /s

So this is probably the wrong audience to mention selfie sticks to. Still, definitely staged but still. Thinking caps.
ANALMUFFIN
I could actually believe that they are making him walk through a real minefield that they laid down before. Cuz f em, that's why.
deumaro
I don't want to say it's not propaganda, but maybe a drone is filming?
wheresthehill
Yes, if you listen very carefully there isn’t a drone videoing this either.
Brhino
Probably filmed this on a farm just outside Moscow. No need to shoot propaganda on location.

In the backrow of the backrow, the kadyrow

Red armband means separatist. So probably not, still obviously fake thought.
Toldavf
even if they did just sweep an area first then reenact it. It's propaganda it's meant to be bullshit.
mastertmo
Even if real, very easily done - sweep once for real, then again for the cameras. Is how lots of in the field shots are done.
canadianreserve
It's how the famous photo on top of Iow Jima was done. All countries do this in all their wars.
Exactly
DePhyler
The trick is, the detectors don't work, but they don't tell the Camera man. They let him find the mines.
KrakedUp
Because they're rats
SergeantDetritus
It's easy when you know where you planted the mines
prfesser
If the guys have any intelligence, they're thinking "This is so FUCKING STUPID!" In Cyrillic, of course. ;)
Gatoechado
took me a minute! :P
Sarnion
I was gonna say that it could be a drone camera, but I know they'd rather sacrifice a cameraperson instead of a drone, if a mine blew up*.
*assuming this is in a minefield. It's probably not lmao.
VeryUnoriginalUsername
that or it's shot by drone
ethannguyen357
Yall mfers never heard of a done, have yall?
BigKangDangaLangSlanga
My thought was that there is no danger. The Ukrainians aren't using landmines, so the Russians can just film where they didn't plant any.

Well put, and I do always love those who cite their sources. I confused mines for the anti-personnel type, which is an important distinction
ninjamjl
My friend doesn't get what he's seeing.
MrBismarck
There's a cameraman walking in front of the dudes sweeping for mines.
jjsjosCreator
backwards at that haha
That's it? Huh, well...alrighty then.
PTNLemay
If there really are mines in that field it would be extremely dangerous for the cameraman.
RicOz6
And there's definitely not a queue of people sweeping mines with the cameraman in the middle?
Dreissen
Why do you even imagine Russians would sweep for mines when they're the only ones spreading mines in the first place?
Verbalstunts
This would mean it is as war when we know this is military operation only.
TheFirstIconoclast
There would still be no reason for a cameraman to be *in front of soldiers sweeping for mines*.
If there were 20 in front of him and 3 behind I think he's be alright
KyleButNotThatKyle
If there were 20 in front of him, there would be no need for the 3 behind. Why would 23 men be sweeping the exact same area?
JahNoodles
Lol! Took me a few loops to get it. (Hint: who took the photo of the first camera?)
Sirius04
The guy who made the second camera of course

A history teacher showed us one of Hitler's propaganda films. I asked where the cameras were; he got that enthusiastic teacher grin, and
told us that the Nazis had to run parts of the parade 7 times to get all those angles without capturing cameras on film. Even making it
at all is effective as propaganda, because realizing that everybody in the crowd stayed there for all those shots shows their power.
And then you have four guys in a field pretending to look for mines. I'm glad the Russians have been so inept; wish they hadn't done evil.
Kottok
Dudes just got one of those go pros on a stick
TK421isAFK
So why is his hand not pacing the camera's moments? It's not a digitally deleted stick. This guy isn't even using the minesweeper correctly.
bardman135
If they hit a mine, it would exponentially increase the "go."
Dogman1227
Not much the "pro" tho
BaklavaWearingBalaclavaWhilePlayingBalalaikaOnBlackLava
I'm well versed in camera tech and it's not a GoPro or insta360. The differences in wobbles between the camera and soldier mean it's a
Camera man walking ahead of them. There is no seam or stabilisation wobbles that you with see from a 360° camera
"But...but...it was a just a joke, dude!" Right.
It was.... it was obvious to me it wasn't a gopro. Also that would infer I'm supporting the Russians claim; which nah.
Sounds like we have to have a conversation about "common" sense, and how to use the "/s" tag.
