How to Roast a Thanksgiving Turkey by Shooting It

As Thanksgiving is near, YouTube uploaders at FunkerTactical bring us a unique, extremely dangerous and most likely ineffective way to cook a turkey.

Their gun roast turkey clip debuted yesterday, November 19, already garnering some 35,000 views, and a little over 500 likes.

In the clip, turkeys are obliterated with AK-47s and M16s. They start out by using a pyrotechnic shotgun round known as dragon's breath. It causes sparks and flames to shoot out of the gun, but the turkey is not literally roasted.

Since that doesn't work, they stuff the bird with explosive, and the result is a “well-done” roast.

“Is it dead yet?,” one user asks. Another suggests they should try this with a frozen turkey next time.
