Horrible.
Yes, yes.
I mean, the whole thing was horrible.
I mean, I was there.
It was horrible.
What happened is this, and I'm just explaining it for people, you know, whatever.
I mean, this is 30 years ago.
When you work in my trade, my chosen trade at the time, and everybody knows what a sniper is, but most people don't understand trajectory.
When a bullet flies through the air, it has to go up and down like a football or a baseball.
And I'm not using a sports metaphor.
It's just the most obvious thing people understand is if you shoot, if you throw a projectile moving over a distance is a physics calculation of trajectory.
Fair enough?
A bullet is no different, smaller, it's faster, but it's the same physics principles, okay?
So the further away, the more difficult those physics principles are to hit a target.
And when you're doing that as a profession, you're looking through a scope and the scope is very narrow field of view.
You can't see what's outside it.
That day, I was high above the house looking at a downward trajectory.
It was 33, 34 degrees, pouring rain, freezing cold, soaking wet.
We'd been up for 36 hours hiking up a mountain.
And all of a sudden, they came running out of the house at us with weapons.
