According to snopes, it is most likely viral advertising for the beverage in the red can.

The weirdest part is the shooter's reaction, or lack there of.

Snopes says it's probably fake, and I think the other guy's reaction isn't very realistic...he'd probably freak out a lot more if he actually shot his friend in the eye. There's also no blood as far as I can see, and from what I understand of the human body (i.e. it has blood in it), there would be a lot if he was actually shot through the head. Purely speculative though.

Nope, this is Russia.

I'm pretty sure it's fake, I can't find any other clips from the same talent show. Also, "Talent" doesn't seem like a very creative name for a TV show. It's probably an ad for whatever was in that can.

watching this stunt done correctly really doesn't bring home how fucking crazy you have to be to try it

Someone has to know the whole story on this.

[–]Chicken_Wing 4 points5 points ago

My best guess is that it's staged if not for the can product placement than for some other goofy reason. I base this conclusion on the placement of the mic boom operator. If you watch the video (the youtube version works just fine) just before the man grabs the can off the table, you can clearly see the boom operator to the right of the celebrity table. Immediately after the shot, the camera shows the boom operator to left (behind) the bowman. His position is inconstant.

[–]rbourbon 2 points3 points ago

I would agree. It is also hard to believe it could be real based on their presentation before the arrow was shot. If you watch the full video.

All I could find was this...

Apparently, if Snopes doesn't have anything on it, no one does. ಠ_ಠ

I think if you take an arrow to the forehead you are automatically commander of the guard in the nearest hold

If that's the case, I gave out a lot of promotions.

Not to be crass, but if that was real the arrow would have gone a lot further in.

It was just a target arrow though, and that bow probably has like a 30lb draw weight.
