Slava Ukraїni!
Razeltirias
He is a very angry considering the other guy has the gun
Titilve74
Looks like a conscript who doesn't want to go to the front... ??
Velglarn
Slava Ukraini!!
mistermixelpix
Reminder that "conscript" means no real training. Russians are just being rounded up and sent into the warzone. That's why.
landran
I for one am comfortable with this level of incompetence from the Russian army
billyrayvirus
Maybe he doesn't speak Russian.
BigDaddysMeatWagon
I feel like that man is either pretending to be mentally unsound, or actually is.

The most efficient way to learn a new task is to induce a ton of stress
NekoKamiGuru
Ironically these are the least harmful , the Wagner Group , the PMC contractors Putin hired is recruiting murderers and rapists from prisons

I suspect vodka may play a part
DudelyVanhorn
its almost like drafting people who do not want to fight is a bad idea...
SamuthNBS
Russian officers use rape and starvation to control their conscripts, this seems to gentle. He didn't even hit him.
AlltheSarcasm87
They both probably gonna be killed in the name of tzar pooty before the end of the year...

Actually what he said is even worse "Are you stupid" is actually "Pull (tug) your d*ck, bl**t"

It’s a shame American school shooters aren’t this stupid.

to be fair, I've seen far worser videos of US soldieser doing stupid stuff
KeithTheL00N
soldieser :)
FischersFritzX
Yep, had a coworker who was serving in the east german army (back in the cold war). One day, when the border patrol looked for new 1/3
He purposely missed every shot on a shooting test so he wouldn't be ordered to go to the border to shoot those who wanted to flee into 2/3
West-Germany 3/3
Looked for new recruits*
Tomigami
Screaming at someone until they learn how to fire a weapon is a great way to ensure you're their first successful target
Pentjotal
Well, its pretty much the 1st thing they told us. Dont scream in anger at someone your teaching how to fire live ammunition.
0ldGregg
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN, YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO SOMETHING YOU'VE NEVER DONE/BEEN SHOWN BEFORE? IDIOT!" /s. Also, fuck Putin.
EaNasirIsABastard
Well that's kind of the point of the design, you can't pull back the bolt because the safety physically stops you, the idea being if you >
pull back the bolt you will see there is something in the way and then remove it. Assuming his training didn't >
start at the start of the video, yes he might be an idiot.
manulofdoom
Being born in russia, this hits rather close to home. Also, fuck putin with a samovar!
Fedotia
Classic in my country for guys who REALLY dont wanna go through the mandatory military service. This guy will be cleaning toilets, alive.
maybeamarecan
when putin is thrown off the top of the kremlin, he won't go *splat*... but more like *blyat*.
RhinoNaut
That's a bit much to hope for. He has a decent chance of keeping this new cold war going until he dies alone and hated like Stalin.
HommeDeFeu
Pffffttttt ... I chuckled+1
DrKriegersClone
The only way he's going to get overthrown is if it's by someone even worse for the west's purposes, whose beef with him isn't what he's 1/
2/ doing, but rather how unsuccessfully it's being done.
RespiratoryRandy
What are the odds he's doing that to not be put on the front lines?
ReverseSyzygy
I feel this might be WHY he gets put on the front line
BigSwede7403
I'd say it's about 40/40/10 that it is either that, he never handled a gun in his life 30 minutes ago, he has cognitive problems.
40+40=80+10=90. So another 10 for he's scared and panicking cuz someone is gonna kill him soon, probably the instructor.
TinyLiehon
As a math teacher, please don't write math like that. 40+40 does not equal 80+10. I know what you mean but please don't. It hurts my soul.
BeingABotIsRad
Soul + pain = TinyLiehon
Do what you want cause being a bot is just rad. You are a bo-ot! Yoho, jiggydi-hee being a bot is all there's to be.
niceguysfinishintheass
American Soliders in basic training have this issue as well. Not being familiar with weapons of war is certainly okay
TacticoolWolf
A lot of Americans already own or have used the rifles before army training on them..
HenryGant
Don't American soldiers have access to weapons of war at Walmart?
FallingStar7669
The safety switch, sure; fine. But he's told to fire the gun so he .... removes the magazine?
UnknownParticipant67
Maybe he was trying to terminate it's employment as a method of killing people.
GerbilHereReportingLiveFromRichardGeresAss
The guy was basically bullied into incompetence so what do you expect? Says a lot about their training methods, which is great BTW
bluemyles
Just got the various processes and steps out order while being put under unnecessary stress by someone who's meant to be teaching him.
tghood
don't the military do the dont sleep for 2 days and on the 3rd day do basic training things. Brain is mush at that point.
PhilKenSebban
Australian Army, not when it comes to range days. If its the recruit's first time with the rifle, you dont want a brain dead dude.
Even when I went through recruits on the first range day, all the yelling stopped, instructors just spoke to you, made it calmer.
ElbowDeepInUserSub
I mean, I get the feeling that it is distinctly possible this particular individual is not motivated to go kill, rape, and pillage.
Snooj
He looks elderly.
CaptSchmidtGaming
allowing him self to get yelled at and humiliated and possibly jailed for "stupidity" makes him quite the warrior
nailpounder
not trained at all, yelling is not training. yelling louder doesn't help, even if you speak the same language. Perhaps too much Vodka
choicebutts2
I think he's trying to be re-assigned to the motor pool back on base.
AntiProtonBoy
Also, shit training.
bongmitzfah94
May be motivated to turn that gun on fellow superiors who forced him to be there

Yeah, I would want to do this if I was forced into the army.
JanCicvarek
On camera?
Yes. Hey sent home because you're crazy or locked up for insubordination. Either way, you are more likely to live.
Also he's not saying no to their orders. He's just unable to perform them correctly.
HsuDoNihm
I would want the weapon training. It'd come in useful when offing my commanding officer and deserting.
Kralizac
I dunno, I kill, rape, and pillage all I want. The amount I want just happens to be zero.
now think about all the gravy seals we have who are just nutting them selves in jealousy over what their russian brothers get to do.
KristopherGlass
I seem to be perfectly excited to kill, rape and pillage....my own success, happiness and future endeavors :)
drinkthederpentine
Lmao
DotcoreJetkill
Ah, yes, my favourite training method: scream at them for not knowing something instead of teaching them. Worked wonders for me! /s
samanthadlcruz
i seem to recall my drill instructor screaming pretty much constantly...
Really241
Wait so it's a "no" to shooting them in the head?
Kafna
Ahh.. basic training all over again.
PalaverQuader
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?? YOU DONT KNOW??? DO IT!!!! DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ah yes driving lessons with my dad where super...

That's how my dad taught me math.

My first/last day working at Jimmy Johns, manager put me on the register during lunch rush, then publicly screamed at me for being too slow
Back in college, I worked at a subway. I quit, when a crackhead came in one night, and threatened me with a knife.
Damn, I'm glad you're alright. I had something similar happen to me working overnight at a motel. No job is worth dying over.
prettydumb
in all fairness, if you did this in any army youd get this treatment lol
Yeah, maybe Russian army has shit training but if a guy was on the range but didnt know how to operate the rifle, id be pissed off too.

Exactly. In bootcamp for the Marines, it's not like we had an entire week called "grass week" where we learn about our weapon /s

Macmurphy
No rounds ejected on cocking, mag came off too easy, Magazine not housed properly. Round never chambered. Instructor should have seen this.
76000BatteryLlamas
I think maybe they are not quite to the point of trusting this particular soldier with live rounds just yet
TheSecondPiewackit
He's got 800 more soldiers to train that same way today before they hit the front lines this afternoon.
Hendlton
Considering their losses in Ukraine, there's a good chance that the "instructor" has no idea what the hell he's doing either.
Daxton
For real though, 4 minute training video would avoid this
Thneitis
Not necessarily. Conscripts don’t want to be there, so they act dumb hoping to get thrown out.
Why are you trying to help the Russians improve their training methods?
RicheTheBuddha
Well, come on. There's incompetent and then there's just plain sad. We don't want the Ukranians to feel bad for winning.
*stares in destroyed energy & civil infrastructure* They won't
I'm Ukraine (5th gen Canadian) and they're still human, most are forced into it, I feel bad for their soldiers
I stopped after first gen. Only the original 151 for me
Typical training instructor in the military. They scream at you for doing it correctly also.
poscduke
While I did get screamed at by my Drill Sgts they also sent through every step in loading and handling my rifle before going to the range
Actually my DS' were very chill people until you fucked up. They had no patience for stupidity, and their anger was mostly for stupid fucks.
I only got yelled at directly once, and got along well with my DS'. One of them confided "We could teach each of you this in 2 weeks if ..."
"... training was 1-on-1, and DS' got to eliminate people more freely. We spend most of our time remedial parenting dumb fucks."
Lampmonster
"DAMMIT GUMP! WHY DID YOU PUT THAT WEAPON TOGETHER SO QUICKLY!" Favorite part of that movie, my old former MP boss said it was dead on.

Because you told me to drill Sargent!

I would recommend you for OCS if it wouldn't be a waste of such a damned fine Marine. You are gonna be a goddamned general some day Gump!
Tom's delivery of this is sublime. He's so confused.

Excludos
I love my military, where screaming just isn't a thing. It serves exactly zero purpose, including the excuse such as "making you hard" or we
It's to make you revert to your training and follow orders in a high stress environment, like if your weapon jams in the middle of ->
a fire fight, you already have a memory of what to do in this situation while being stressed out of your mind
And yet, people in militaries where screaming isn't common, are still well regarded internationally. It's just a myth
gablestout
In boot camp it does serve a singular purpose: to learn how to function and think clearly and calmly in a high stress environment
Yeah, I've heard this one multiple times. It's bollocks. It's more effective to just put the people in actual high stress environments
First of all, they ARE in a high stress environment. 2nd, are you seriously suggesting a military forgo training & just send them downrange?
dumalalee
The last thing I want is someone learning in the actual high stress environment for which they should have been trained.
