WALTON COUNTY, GA. – A Georgia man trying to videotape shooting a lawn mower packed with explosives lost his leg. According to the March 19th incident report obtained by 11Alive, a sheriff’s deputy responded to a call about an explosion. A 911 call reported 32-year-old David Pressley was shooting Tannerite in the woods and “had possibly blown his legs off from the explosion.”
Two of Pressley’s friends fashioned a tourniquet around his leg, helped him to the front seat of a vehicle, and drove him to a nearby road. That’s where EMS met the group and started working on Pressley. “EMS advised David was missing his left leg below the knee,” the report notes.

He was airlifted to Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta. He is now recovering from the incident.

One of Pressley’s friends told investigators they put three pounds of Tannerite into an old lawn mower “to blow it up”. That friend also told the responding deputy the entire incident was captured on video. It became police evidence.

11Alive obtained that video. It shows Pressley dressed in what appears to be a tactical vest, sunglasses, and a ball cap. He shoots a semi-automatic rifle at the lawn mower for 30 seconds, getting off more than 20 shots. On the last shot, the lawnmower explodes in a cloud of water vapor. Shrapnel can be seen flying in all direction.

Video No flying limbs or shit.

No.

12.5 makes a good boom though. It will knock pictures off a wall of a house on concrete foundation at about 3/8 mile...

Can't help but laugh at a lawnmower saying fuck you for blowing me up. # mowerlivesmatter

My desire to see stupid people injured on youtube says different.
