This type of video can be VERY convincing. But listen closely and you'll find the bullshit. Listen to the claim that it doesn't matter where you're hit if you're hit with a .45. He also states that the .45 is better than 9mm and more capable from any standpoint, which is also not true. A 9mm +P JHP round is definitely more effective than a .45 Ball. Is the .45 generally more powerful? Yes, of course! But the difference is much more marginal than people think.
Shot place is always relevant. Even a shot to the torso with a .45 is not guaranteed to drop somebody. The video of Tex Grebner shooting himself in the leg with a .45 sure as heck didn't drop him and put him down for the count, so we have undeniable proof that the claims are false.
For anybody curious, here is the video of Tex shooting himself in the leg for proof:
But when presented with real information, the maker of the first video falls back on a fallacious military record stating that he has combat experience and that whenever he's shot anybody with a .45 they've gone flying. However, thanks to the Mythbusters we know that this is actually physically impossible.
As you can see, not even the .50 BMG is capable of sending anybody flying like you'd see in the movies:
I will be happy to share more videos of people who are dangerously full of crap here in this thread. If you listen to the advice of somebody like the guy in the first video, you very well could end up dead. That makes this subject a very serious one in my opinion.

I want to add here that if anybody has a video or a piece of information that they'd like me to look into for them, just send it to me in a PM. I will do my best to either verify the info for you or post it here if it's crap with facts to prove why.
