Pretty cool. Think they wear cams for evidence of engagement?

Looks like they maybe tried to scare them off at first, those first shots were pretty wild. I'm surprised the pirates kept at it, they were being shot at from a fortified elevated position with zero cover lol. The shots the security team made after initial contact were definitely aimed.

Lol, he tags the shit out of that railing.

Did any of them have optics?



Its like cheating compared to being on land. You get positive confirmation of impact on every round from the splash. I feel like I could have done a better job walking rounds in from the hip.

I feel the same way! These guys must have pretty good training to get the job (i.e. ex mil contractor) so I'm not jumping to any conclusions, but it does seem pretty off? 

ETA: Maybe they're preoccupied (and rightfully so) with keeping cover. Not only from return fire, but element of surprise when initially engaging too (hence the railing job ).

I was wondering why they didn't turn off, guess not all those rounds went high.
