After reading this for the thousandth time, I asked my history professor about it last year. He laughed and said he knew exactly what I was talking about because he saw it too. This is what he told me.

  1. 50 Cent was shot with multiple life threatening bullets in one night. He was bleeding out pretty badly and it wasn't as if the bullet barely grazed him. He was actually shot.

  2. Teddy, as great as he is, was a smart man when it came to hunting. He was shot, but the bullet barely penetrated him and he knew that he wasn't going to die because he knew it didn't cause any internal bleeding or hit any organs.

50 Cent isn't a wuss (at least that I know of), but Teddy is still a bad ass.

50 Cent was shot and stabbed several times and left for dead in a gutter. Kind of more serious than just getting shot once.

[–][deleted] 40 points41 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Teddy's shot was not serious at all, and since he knew quite a bit about biology he understand his life was not in danger.

[–]hydrogenous 38 points39 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yes, he knew this from his experience as a hunter. He had a very thick copy of a speech folded and placed inside his jacket pocket along with a steel eyeglasses case that helped slow the bullet. After he had been shot he noted that he was not coughing up blood (as would happen if you get shot in a lung) and continued with his speech:

"Ladies and gentlemen.. I do not know whether you fully understand that I have just been shot; but it takes more than that to kill a Bull Moose." (His political party was called the Bull Moose party)

[–]anonoman925 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

He also helped protect his assassin from being beat and the speech was quite long

[–]SailorMitch 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Just saying, but getting shot no matter by what or where still hurts like a bitch.

[–]Tokeli 2 points3 points ago

I imagine him being fatter than 50cent helped a little, too.

[–]Killroyomega 4 points5 points ago

Fat tissue wouldn't help in the slightest against a bullet.

[–]BMikasa 58 points59 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

A couple of bullets went through his face leaving him unable to pronunciate. It would be difficult to continue a speach.

Roosevelt was shot once, and I'm pretty sure a couple bullets is more then one so I would hazard a guess that he was talking about 50.

[–]bloed 0 points1 point ago

I wouldn't say 50 whines about it. He raps about it but so would any rapper if they'd been shot and stabbed like he was. I'm not saying Teddy's not a badass, because we all know damn well that he was. But, I don't think that 50 needs a lesson in perspective.

[–]metalcupcakes 71 points72 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Sigh, this fucking picture again. 50 cent makes a living talking about his life and past experiences. Getting shot multiple times and getting stabbed is definitely something worth talking about more than once. You guys make it sound like getting shot isn't a big deal.

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points ago

Roosevelt's wound was not life threatening whatsoever and he knew that at the time. He was shot in the chest and did not even cough up blood

[–]eh777 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah, where-as 50 cent was shot 9 times (two in the face iirc) and stabbed and still survived, I mean if that happened to me - I'd be talking about it a hell of a lot!

[–]Jman5 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Let me ask you this. If you got shot, and did not cough up blood, would you just carry on as if nothing happened?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Depends how much it hurt, how much I knew about these kinds of injuries and what I was doing at the time. If I was giving a very important speech, was not in a lot of pain and knew I was not going to die I probably would. If I was sitting on my porch and it happened I would probably go to the hospital immediately.

[–]Magilagorilla 23 points24 points ago

Wasn't 50 shot like 9 times, thats pretty badass if you ask me.

[–]deadstump 18 points19 points ago

And is why you should always use hollow points if you are going to shoot someone, you don't want them limping away and becoming a rap star.

50 cent was shot multiple times and stabbed. teddy had a speech and eye glass case to slow down the bullet. fiddy went through a lot more than teddy did.

also you can thank fiddy for vitamin water getting big. that dude is actually a very smart investor, really bright guy. he just plays the thug because thats the image that sells.

Teddy Roosevelt is fucking amazing. I hope that society devolves into a more primitive form in the distant future and great Myths will be told of the legendary Theodore Roosevelt, who led a cavalry charge across the Atlantic Ocean to besiege and conquer Cuba. And later created great national parks by placing his palm on the ground and springing fauna and flora for miles, gouging deep canyons into the earth, and growing trees unimaginable in size. Accomplishing this he earned his rightful place on the face mountain of the four great American Gods! E pluribus Unum!

I am going to post this every week, since it already is, and see how many times I get to the front page

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

From Wikipedia:

While Roosevelt was campaigning in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on October 14, 1912, a saloonkeeper named John Schrank shot him, but the bullet lodged in his chest only after penetrating his steel eyeglass case and passing through a thick (50 pages) single-folded copy of the speech he was carrying in his jacket. Roosevelt, as an experienced hunter and anatomist, correctly concluded that since he was not coughing blood, the bullet had not completely penetrated the chest wall to his lung, and so declined suggestions he go to the hospital immediately. Instead, he delivered his scheduled speech with blood seeping into his shirt. He spoke for 90 minutes. His opening comments to the gathered crowd were, "Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know whether you fully understand that I have just been shot; but it takes more than that to kill a Bull Moose." Afterwards, probes and x-ray showed that the bullet had traversed three inches (76 mm) of tissue and lodged in Roosevelt's chest muscle but did not penetrate the pleura, and it would be more dangerous to attempt to remove the bullet than to leave it in place. Roosevelt carried it with him for the rest of his life.
