Here is the link to the original video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWSw5odsFrw

From the history of the uploader it seems he was part of the crew who filmed (shitty) russian series called Morskiye dyavoly.

Also, comment with the answer from the uploader can be roughly translated to:

dig3r: Vitaly is alive?

igor1968l (uploader): All alive. Minor concussions, leg injuries...

Unfortunately I couldn't find this episode in the series. Never watched it and it has 5 seasons..

[–]Jaspymon 234 points235 points ago

Bump this to the top. No one died.

[–]TigerGoddess 18 points19 points ago

Thanks for that. Appreciated.. ;) Whew!

[–]BassheadPanda 24 points25 points ago

Whew!

I'm kind of disappointed. What if they breed?

[–]TigerGoddess 2 points3 points ago

Ah well true.. and WTF were they doing with live grenades anyway? And why not pitch them far away? That I don't understand. Was it faked? Didn't look like it,, :\

      Did they think it would sink faster and not hurt them somehow? Or were they ok with a grenade going off right there?

      [–]Rankulus 77 points78 points ago

      Russians.

      [–]ForgettableUsername 13 points14 points ago

      Yeah, I guess.

        I think they usually have more like a five second delay. Perhaps it went off sooner than expected.

        If it's really a movie set, I have a hard time believing they'd use a real grenade. It would probably just be a smaller charge or air cannon or something already under the water.

        [–]ForgettableUsername 25 points26 points ago

        If they're really Russians, I wouldn't be surprised if it was an ordinary, unaltered grenade. The Russian people have a peculiar sense of fatalism about that sort of thing.

        [–]hippiewench 5 points6 points ago

        Most Russians I know are in the process of slowly drinking themselves to death, they have a death wish.

                  That's about the stupidest thing I've ever seen someone do. If that was really a frag grenade, there's probably shrapnel all in those dudes.

                  [–]mcb1985 169 points170 points ago

                  That's why you're supposed to throw it.

                          Russian speaker here, this is definitely a movie set but still questioning the thought process behind the procedure.

                          [–]ed1380 21 points22 points ago

                          It sounded like a movie set

                          [–]drethedog 57 points58 points ago

                          "The parents of a stuntman killed during filming of The Expendables 2 are seeking unspecified damages from the film-makers as a result of their son's death. 26-year-old Kun Liu was killed while performing on an inflatable boat on the Ognyanovo dam in Bulgaria. He died from wounds he suffered from an on-set explosion nearby. His parents have filed a case of wrongful death against Millennium Films and the movie's stunt coordinator."

                          [–]deffun 55 points56 points ago

                          26-year-old Kun Liu was killed

                          Russian here. When explosion is over, someone behind the scenes asking: "Там Виталик-то жив?" which means "Is Vitaly alive?". Vitaly is a common russian name so I guess it was different accident. Though it's still happened during a movie set obviously.

                          [–]kstarks17 8 points9 points ago

                          was it said seriously or jokingly? the other guy seems to get up quickly and I think I heard laughing in the background also.

                            I saw this gif months and months ago on here so I doubt it was on the expendable a 2 set

                            Expendables 2 has been out two months almost. Likely this was filmed months and months ago.

                              My internet is so shitty (satellite, 54 Mbps) that when it loaded the first time, I could see frame-by-frame that his coat just blew over his head a little bit and he was hunching over; he still has a head.

                              You can see some bald head sticking out of that collar here.

                              Yeah, it probably is a movie set, that pontoon took no damage whatsoever.

                                  The fragments from a M67 or an F1 would not travel fast enough nor far enough to do any damage in that situation. But yes, stupid none the less.

                                          This is NOT a scene from Expendables 2 people. What's the scene supposed to be "2 idiots drop a grenade next to their boat and hurt themselves"... Yeah sweet action scene they have there guys. The evidence it not being from the Expendables 2 movie is that 1.) It doesn't match a scene from the movie 2.) It doesn't make any sense in a movie context 3.) The setup would be EXTREMELY unprofessional for a Hollywood movie 4.) The supposed stuntmen were not in costume

                                          But the most damning evidence of all is the fact that the person that died in Expendables 2 was ASIAN as he was Jet Li's stunt double. Neither person in the video is Asian. It is so easy to spread rumors over the internet when so few have the facts.

                                          I don't know, I think sometimes theres a limit to morbid being funny.

                                          Like I said, I don't think there is a limit to what you can try to make fun of... but sometimes (at least for me) it's just not funny. Like watching people die.

                                          That could be somebodies father, uncle, son or brother - and we're just laughing at how he did something foolish that killed him.

                                                  Isn't that a inflatable boat? (or at at least the sides are) I would think doing anything that could possibly pop it would be a terrible idea.

                                                  It is a RHIB (Rigid hulled inflatable boat), from wikipedia the tubes are most commonly made from hypalon, PVC, or polyurethane. They are generally fairly robust, and have varied uses, from dinghies to coast guard and military vessels.

                                                  This is from a Russian movie set. If you watch the video, you can hear the director over a megaphone yell action in Russian, then both stunt men get up after it, there's some laughter in the background. Also, note that in the video, both men are holding their positions and the man in front is acting like he's being held captive by the gentleman in the back.

                                                  Because water does not compress.

                                                  Actually that's entirely incorrect. The reciprocal of the bulk modulus is called the compressibility of the substance, where the compressibility is the fractional change in volume per unit increase in pressure. Water has a compressibility (k) of 46.4 which means that for each atmosphere increase in pressure, the volume of water would decrease 46.4 parts per million. At the bottom of the Pacific Ocean at a depth of about 4000 meters, the pressure is about 4 x 107 N/m2 which leads to a fractional volume compression of about 1.8%.

                                                  Furthermore, the compressibility of water, gas bubble size, and pump startup are all studied for their effect on the peak pressure reached during a water hammer event

                                                  So at the bottom of the Pacific the volume is decreased by 1.8%? Is it safe to say that water mostly doesn't compress?

                                                  [–]equatorbit 5 points6 points ago

                                                  almost entirely incorrect

                                                  [–]GeoGeoGeoGeo 7 points8 points ago

                                                  Yes, the volume is compressed by 1.8% at 4km depth and more so the deeper one goes as hydrostatic pressure increases. I tend to stay away from ambiguous terms such as mostly (how much is mostly?), and sayings such as, such and such does not compress, as it denies the existence of a particular physical property. Although I tend to think of these properties as important in understanding the physical nature of objects, most people would find this to be somewhat pedantic. All that being said, for the majority of every day scenarios one could get away with saying that water mostly does not compress.

                                                  As a fluid engineer, we never bother to figure in the compressibility of water because it is almost entirely negligible. We do very much factor in the compressibility of oil/synthetic fluids as they are far more compressible then water.

                                                    That grenade exploded WAY too soon after letting go. I'm thinking it was either a faulty grenade, or it was a dud and there were explosives under the water that were supposed to go off in place of the grenade but were planted too close to the boat.

                                                    After watching it loop through several times, I think you're probably right about it being a dud. The explosion isn't centered where the grenade was dropped, and it's too big and has too much flame to match other grenade explosions I've seen, especially those in water.

                                                    I thought for sure the guy closest to the water lost his head, literally.

                                                    Don't grenades have a time delay of few seconds ? This looks like it exploded almost immediately (or the .gif is speeded up and looks that way).

                                                    The head disappearing trick explained as i see it:
                                                    You know how a chicken's head stays in the same position even if you move its body around? Same thing here. The blast pushed the boat up and with it, the bodies of the two men. However, the head is connected to the body by the neck and moved a bit later, like a whip.

                                                    It looks like the head disappeared, but it's only tucked in as it couldn't 'keep up' with the movement of everything else.

                                                    Uh...why? What did they try to accomplish with that?

                                                    The words drop and grenade never belong in the same sentence. You throw a grenade.

                                                    I'm confused, what did they think was gonna happen?

                                                    Was this a way of testing their hypothesis that grenades don't explode underwater? Or something along those lines?

                                                    I'm curious what exactly they thought was going to happen.

                                                    There's an old joke about a guy who was fishing by tossing dynamite into his local lake. News spread. The local ranger pulled up next to him in his boat and asked, "Hey Mister, what on earth are you doing?"

                                                    Than man replied, "Fishing."

                                                    "Well, you have some serious explaining to do!" said the ranger. "It is absolutely illegal to harvest fish with explosives and there are serious penalties for anyone who refuses to follow all local and state-wide fishing regulations. I shall now read you the appropriate portion of from our book of rules and regulations.."

                                                    As the ranger talked, the man calmly lit the fuse on another stick of dynamite. When the ranger paused, the man tossed the sputtering stick of dynamite into the ranger's boat and said,

                                                    "So do you want to TALK or FISH?"
