If you strapped a claymore (or other directional mine) to yo

>>30659746
Directly on your chest it's full suicide status. The direction of a claymore is the shape designed to direct the shrapnel forward, the blast itself and shrapnel from the mines casing will still travel backwards.

>>30659746
You will die.

>>30659775

What about on the back of an armoured backpack?

You could throw yourself to the group, hunch up like a turtle, and blow up everyone nearby

The blast would still turn your internal organs to paste.

Don't listen to these idiots. It is full proof plan and you will return hero of mother land

It would be extremely painful

just wear two claymores as shoes and do a flying kick to blow up everyone in front of you desu

>>30659746
Homicide vest?

So the force would probably still kill you, but what if you absorbed the force of the blast with something? Like, what if the claymore was attached to several large springs, which were strapped to your chest?

It's got a lethal back last of like 15 feet.

Quads deem it possible go be brave for all of /k/

I was actually thinking about this the other night. I remember some story about some fags tying a rope to the claymore, throwing it over a wall and clearing the whole compound with it. I'd like to hear some more stories like this.

>>30660085
Dick Meadows, a MACV-SOG vet, once ran up alongside a NVA filled truck with claymore and clacker in hand, tossed the mine in the truck bed, and clacked it off. Pretty baller.

The whole point of that stunt was that it's an insane, suicidal tactic.

He's a big guy

>>30660170
if he jumped while throwing it he must have played BF2

man I fucking loved that game. C4 was a great weapon. throw that stuff around corners and blow people up with it. anti-tank? C4 throwing. C4 was a better weapon than the gun.

30m kill radius to the rear of the mine. Even with a plate vest the overpreassure would liquify you.

Fuckin crazy ass Korean's man

What if you had a metal frame around your chest and a claymore with no shrapnel on the back that detonated at the same time

15KB, 567x480px

What about if the mine was on your head? That way you would be under the front and back blast, and your helmet would soak up the miniscule amount of downward caseshrapnel

plus you could aim it by looking towards whatever you want to destroy before detonating it

Fuck if I know I got it from here when some retard was talking about strapping meat to his body to save him from pistols and shotguns.

Then some glorious anon posted this in response, I had a screencap but my dog went full retard under my feet and knocked over my tower so I lost it before I could save.

Blast overpressure would liquefy your brain.

>>30659855

I've been 20m away from a claymore as it has blown with no cover in between. It'd hurt but you cloud be right behind it with a backpack for cover. A tree would be better though.

>>30660023

Nein, its a 16m danger radius to the read. It will send secondary shrapnel backward but you can get pretty close.

>>30660743

It's a 16m danger radius to the rear. It will not liqufy you. Source: I've been 20m to the rear of detting claymore

Claymores are 1 pound of C4. It doest matter what direction the thing is facing, you wanna be ATLEAST 100 meters away from it. Uncle has permanantly slurred speech from it.

Guy was a fuckin nutcase.

He did the whole "wandering around without pants" thing on several occaisions. Like, hed get hot, take his pants off, and legit it would just slip his mind that he didnt have them on.

multiple TBI, it messes ya up man.

that the reason the grenade was invented was exploding baddies from a distance with shrapnel

ie

dont throw your self throw the grenade

>>30665172

Have you, nigger? Claymores don't have much explosive.

>>30663567
your uncle earned his place in valhalla

>>30663567

M8 the det chord is only 30m long. You can be much closer to the rear of the blast.

>>30664423

Kewl stoery broe

>>30665858
Didnt say you couldnt be closer, just that you dont want to be closer.

Not unless you got something solid to be behind.

Op, if the mine is strapped to your chest, your torso will become secondary shrapnel.
