First Person I.E.D.

Soundwise, this little video can't do it justice (unless you have some serious subwoofers plugged into your computer) but the anonymous soldier who submitted suggests for starters, imagining a thunderclap going off under your seat. Regardless, we hope this is as close you'll ever get to experiencing an I.E.D. Note that the vehicle continues on --- In addition to the danger of the I.E.D. is the very real risk of an immediate followup ambush.

Filmed in Ramadi, Iraq sometime during the winter of 2004.
