Thermal Imagery Shows Violence Down in Iraq

Posted by: Scott @ 4:57 am in Middle East, Military, The Iraqi War, Videos, War On Terror  | 0 views

In the darkness of the night, American technology allows US forces to see threats just by spotting the heat from their aircraft and even the body temperature of soldiers. Remember, this video was shot in complete darkness, and the soldiers were not visible to anyone except people with sophisticated night vision equipment. (My favorite part has to be the lawnmower in the desert, but that’s me)

Hella funny is right. It’s things that this video that gives me continued faith in our Armed Forces.

Reminds me of a video we made back in the sandbox ourselves. Barbie and Jem dolls were caught fooling around by the Ken doll. Ken was pissed, and even though he had no genitals, he acted like he did. Tied both girl dolls to a small piece of C4 and… well, you know the rest.

Nothing beats the last few seconds where after the video camera zoomed waaaaay back from the explosion, the Barbie head landed in frame a foot in front of the camera. That was awesome.
