«Breaking News» Man shoots himself in stomach to test bulletproof vest in Ukraine

A pro-Russian fighter was seriously injured after deliberately shooting himself in the stomach while being filmed testing the strength of a bulletproof vest in Ukraine.

The incident - described as fatal in unconfirmed social media reports - occurred in the region of Donbass, the shortened name for the Donetsk and Luhansk coal mining regions in eastern Ukraine.

In a shocking video, the young man - named as 'Domovoi' by Ukrainian media - wearing a dark bulletproof vest, can be seen loading a Stechkin automatic pistol in front of his friends.

The male voice of the cameraman in the background can be heard explaining that the man with the firearm is wearing sixth-grade armour, the same as that worn by Russian Special Forces.

Meanwhile the tester points the gun at himself and with the cry of 'that's it, f***, Donbass!', shoots himself in the stomach.

After the shot, the tester falls to his knees in obvious pain while throwing the pistol aside and holding his left hand to his stomach.

The fighter can be seen on the left, aiming the automatic pistol at himself, before suddenly grabbing his stomach (right) in pain

The man, named as Domovoi in Ukrainian media reports, grips his stomach and drops onto the ground

The cameraman can be heard initially joking: 'Looks like he's dying. Yes, he's dying.'

Suddenly concerned, he asks: 'F***, are you dying? Are you really wounded, bro?'

But the tester does not reply to the cameraman. Instead, he takes the vest off and lies down on the ground.

The unsympathetic cameraman utters a short laugh and says: 'Looks like he's wounded.

'Looks like he's going to die now. I have to stop filming now, sorry.'

According to local social media reports, the tester, identified only by his nickname Domovoi (House-Elf), later died as a result of shooting himself in the stomach. But this has not been officially confirmed.

One media report suggested that the bullet hit him in the abdomen, in an unprotected part of the vest, rather than the armored plate.

Clearly injured, he is pictured above on all fours. A military expert, Mikhail Bratskov, said the bullet could have easily torn his internal organs

Military expert Mikhail Bratskov explained: 'The shot was fired at close range.

'Even if the vest was not penetrated by the bullet, the kinetic energy of the bullet could easily tear the tester's internal organs.'

It has been reported that the tester was a member of a Russian-backed militia occupying the Donetsk and Luhansk regions in eastern Ukraine as a result of Russian military intervention in 2014.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
