This could happen to anyone; oddly enough it just happened to him......
Unfortunate? man
I originally saw this in High Country News.

Gun safety appears to be a lost art, not that neanderthals like him know about the practice.

There's somebody in another forum who dropped his gun in a public bathroom stall and shot his own testicle.

Yea, a couple of years ago a hiker shot himself in the butt, he had the gun stuffed down the back of his pants while hiking. I still don't get having a round chambered unless you plan to need it very quickly. The argument is that an unloaded gun is useless, but it only takes a couple of seconds to chamber a round and fire so...

Incorrect, it could NOT happen to me - ever!
And it's not odd at all, as Ron White said, "you can't fix stupid"!
As this guy is SOLIDLY in the stupid camp.
And "High Country" news? That may offer a glimpse into the (non)thinking of the participants.

Another self-inflicted wound happened several years ago in the (no defunct) Bellevue Lowes. A customer felt their Glock slipping into their sweatpants from the waistband and accidentally fired a round into their thigh fumbling to pull the gun back up.
If find it fascinating that someone would go through the expense and hassle of obtaining a firearm and concealed carry permit , but not spend an extra $100 for a carry harness to securely carry their firearm and ensure that they could quickly and reliably draw their firearm for defense when needed.

The Idiocracy grows.
What's especially fun about sock puppets is that you can make each one unique and individual, so that they each have special characters. And they don't have to be human––animals and aliens are great possibilities

Back in the mid-90s, some highschool/college buddies and I were camped out at Black Lake in the Pasayten. We were enjoying some whiskey and repartee around a fire pretty late into the night. Around 10:30 or 11pm when we see a flashlight (not a headlamp) coming, okay staggering, into camp.
Just one of several extremely bizarre occurences that would follow that evening was a pretty drunk, and armed, gentleman pulling his pants and underwear down around the fire to show us (along with way more pubic hair than anyone was prepared for!) a gruesome scar WAAAY up on his inner thigh.
When asked WTF that was from, he informed us that it was because his Glock went off in his pocket while he was hopping a fence at the Kingdome. For better or worse, we saved this guy's son-in-law's life later than evening. But that's another story.
