Suddenly it's getting all kinds of recognition.
Looks intense.
Anyone see it?
-
Yes, it was very good.
-
yes, found parts of it boring and tedious. had to fast forward through parts.
-
OK...Please answer me this
How did the first guy die...he had on the suit..he was away from the bomb...i mean did a rock hit him or something?

Could have been but I think he was still too close and it was a type of compression(?) injury where maybe his organs liquified or something.

So was it just a bunch of wind that hit him?

An explosive is any substance or device capable of a sudden expansion of gas, which upon release of its potential energy creates a pressure wave. Compression of air in front of the pressure wave, which heats and accelerates air molecules, leads to a sudden increase in atmospheric pressure (overpressure) and temperature transmitted into the surrounding environment as a radially propagating shock wave known as the blast wave (1, 2). Injuries directly inflicted by this sudden increase in air pressure after an explosion are referred to as primary blast injuries and involve almost exclusively gas-containing organs such as the lungs, middle ear, and gastrointestinal tract, which are the organs most vulnerable to overpressure (2, 3).

Here's a little more
HOW DOES BLAST EXPOSURE CAUSE A CONCUSSION OR A TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY?
A TBI is caused by a blow or jolt to the head or a penetrating head injury that disrupts the function of the brain. Exposure to blast events can affect the body in a number of ways; in addition, these different injuries mechanisms can interact and result in more impairments or prolonged periods of recovery.
Primary blast injury is the result of exposure to the over pressurization wave or the complex pressure wave that is generated by the blast itself. This blast over-pressurization wave travels at a high velocity and is affected by the surrounding environment; for example, the effects of the blast wave may be increased in a closed environment such as a vehicle. Air-filled organs such as the ear, lung, and gastrointestinal tract and organs surrounded by fluid-filled cavities such as the brain and spinal cord are especially susceptible to primary blast injury (Elsayed, 1997; Mayorga, 1997). The over pressurization wave dissipates quickly, causing the greatest risk of injury to those closest to the explosion.
Secondary blast injury is the result of energized fragments flying through the air; these fragments may cause penetrating brain injury.
Tertiary blast injury may occur when the individual is thrown from the blast into a solid object such as a adjacent wall or even a steering wheel. These types of injuries are associated with acceleration/ deceleration forces and blunt force trauma to the brain similar to that observed following high speed motor vehicle accidents.
Finally, quaternary blast injury can occur in the presence of severe blast related trauma resulting from significant blood loss associated with traumatic amputations or even from inhalation of toxic gases resulting from the explosion.

Saw where the soldier who's unit the author of the book this was based on is suing, because he says the lead character was based on him, and even that he invented the term "Hurt Locker." I'm usually not big on law suits, but maybe the author or movie director could throw this guy, and others in his unit, a few bones.....

Movie was awesome!
I love high explosives! semtex is the shit!!! ;)
-
Just downloaded it yesterday but haven't had a chance to watch it yet. Should be interesting.
-
Excellent film - I thought it had some good suspense in it. Definitely worthy of the Oscar win.
-
Netflix.
-
Wind?
-
Just viewed this film, two thumbs up.

Wind?
i know garebear my bad. I know nothing about explosives.

Yes, good movie. The guy was also good in '28 weeks later'.
-
Just watched it yesterday. Good movie. Not better than Blind Side and not more entertaining than Avatar IMO.
-
Just watched in on the big screen, enjoyed it.
