This recoil from the first round made the hammer hit his nose then he involuntarily squeezed off a second round which nearly took off the rest of his nose... LOTS of blood! He's luck the barrel was still pointing away from his head!
That is a pump shotgun, it only fired one round. You're hearing echoes of the buildings around him. I have fired a 10ga. 3-1/2" magnum shotgun one handed. My left arm was in a cast, and I rested the butt of the shotgun against my buddy's old Chevy truck. Left a dent about 1-1/2 inches deep and a foot across in the fender where I rested it. Two .69cal punkin balls. By weight, not a terribly hot load for that gun. What he's shooting looks like a 12 ga., and a 1-1/8ounce load would be normal for it. Or one .69cal. punkin ball. Pretty sure he will NEVER make that mistake again.
