FYI an RPG wont arm until a certain time/distance from launch so the metaphor is perfect here.
Peak “now I will fight” hype moment happening after the battle to take the castle was lost yesterday to the enemy while you were worried about the enemy interpreting your actions as threatening.
Hey how much would it hurt if a dummy rocket propelled grenade hit you in the chest at launch velocity?
Probably a lot, you think? Like maybe a fatal amount?
I suspect that even at muzzle velocity that round would punch an RPG shaped hole through this dudes chest, cook his ass as it exited, and arm on the other side.
Handguns shoot around 800 to 1300 fps, an rpg is apparently 300fps, even without arming and from a few feet away I imagine its like having a brick launched into your face.

I am not gonna lie, this is absolutely hilarious given the context of how we started this silly tangent, thank you!

300fps is about 200mph.
Twice as fast as an mlb fastball
So like having a pointy metal object shot into your face at 200mph from a few feet away. I’ll pass.
