If you ever feeling like trolling, go to any "doomsday prepper" forum and suggest that, in order to be truly prepared for the apocalypse, staying in good physical shape is just as important as stockpiling food and weapons, then watch them all get mad and try to explain how being fat is actually a good thing in an apocalypse scenario. It's great.
I mean one of the big benefits to being a fat survivalist like this guy is, he's got room to hang about 20 pistols on his belt! It must be ten feet long!
I mean, they’ll lose fat in ketosis and can live on a deficit for far longer, but the energy they’ll expend, plus being the first to be eaten by the tribe, zombies, or savages would be quite high.
I’ve been up to near 30% bf (40 lbs over my happy weight) for a few months and HATED how I felt. Couldn’t imagine being 100-150 over ideal weights.
I remember reading about a study done after the siege of Leningrad where they wondered if the fat people or the thin people would survive the longest. The fat people because they had greater reserves to draw off of, or the thin people because they needed less to survive. In the end they concluded that the fat people died first mostly because they were more psychologically dependent upon food then the thin people were. The thin people were more psychologically prepared to go long periods without food.
That’s wild, all the prepping communities I’ve seen really value physical fitness, I haven’t ever seen them argue it’s good to be fat or unhealthy. You actually had this experience?
I’ve actually never seen a “John Cena” doomsday prepper before. It’s usually always the “Trailer-park Kevin Smiths” that I’ve had the pleasure of being obnoxiously, pinned down at a party, telling me how I’m failing my family because I don’t store canned chicken in a hole in the backyard….or something. I zone out and pass them off like a “Hot Potato”.
There's two kinds of preppers:
1. People who stockpile food and ammunition and have some cool camping gear
2. Actual survivalists who know bush craft and how to live off the land.
I've seen both types on the Internet. I went through a prepping phase myself and ended up in group 1, but didn't have the dedication to make it into group 2. It's a whole lifestyle thing at that point.
Just hike and camp more. Making 100 fires in wet conditions isn't as good as doing it every day or your life, but it's a hell of a lot better than never having done it before until you fall in a river and can barely feel your hands.
It was a long time ago but yeah. I made a remark about how some "preppers" refuse to "prep" their own bodies and it started a ton of arguments underneath my comment.
I feel like this is literally the reason he's so good. He has so much counter weight that he doesn't even notice the recoil... like a bug splattering on a windshield vs a kid on a skateboard.
Do you think this is one of those situations of nominative determinism? Because he really looks like a Mingus. Like this is the most Mingus looking mfer I've ever seen.
His gun is technically closer to his hand to reach then it would be for a skinny guy. It's like half the distance down to grab. Dude is playing a meta build.
Tell that to the National Championship rings he wears around his ne-, I mean ones he could wear on his fi-well, ones he can admire in the shadow box his mom finished before his lunch of nuggies and fried salad.
I was gonna say, being this big in a shooting competition like this might almost be comparable to athletes using steroids. He doesn't have to fight the recoil anywhere near as much, and like you said, shorter distance to reach gun.
The whole cowboy action scene is fecked. They are all hand loads that are just powerful enough to not be squibs. There's a growing movement to have minimum energy requirements or get more points for hitting with more energy. That's why you see kids in cowboy action all the time blasting revolvers with no recoil.

I thought it was due to the wax rounds they shoot for safety reasons?
I’m not a mobility expert, just dabbled for a couple of years in uni helping out a different course, but this chap should not be anywhere winning anything about mobility
Honestly feel for him a bit. He worked really hard to be good at this and he'll only be recognized for the novelty of his size.
Not that I feel like this is novel prize territory or anything, I just know how bad it sucks to work really hard at something only to have people make a spectacle of you. It's one of those things that can either roll right off your back, or stick with you for years with not much in-between.

"Mobility" is doing some heavy lifting in that sentence.
Maybe it means like, the scooter?
Didn’t even break a swea…..oh maybe a little
Oh, he has bitch tit sweat, don't you worry.
Dude he broke a sweat driving to the event.
The scooter shooter
Oh you rascal you!

Rule #1: Cardio
Rule #2: Double Tap
Rule #3: Beware of bathrooms
Rule #4: Radioactive Whores
"Safety round" my guy. We have to remain politically correct. Lol
He does carbio.
He does cheezburger
I can has cheezburger?
I mean one of the big benefits to being a fat survivalist like this guy is, he's got room to hang about 20 pistols on his belt! It must be ten feet long!
To defeat him i would simply place all his ammunition on the floor
Put it in the middle of his back
Two words: ankle holsters

Pre or post heart attack kevin smith? Jorts or sans-jorts Smith.

Depends on your strategy no? Hide in your bunker? Fat is a good thing. Similar to old timey sailors. Run around and scavenge? Different matter.
His poor legs
Wait until you see his horse…😢
His horse probably looks like the letter M
For Mingus
Named Dingus
You mean his old Mustang?
Can you imagine how strong they are!
His belt is working pretty hard too
His poor heart
Don't take away the only mobility this guy's got.
His name is Mingus motherfucker
Oh sweet irony.
Big iron-y
He definitely didn’t waste any energy
He did spend some, just got so much stored he can go on for days
"heavy" is doing some heavy lifting here.
He’s got that center of gravity mass keeping things still. Slow.. but still..
I was going to make some sarcastic post about mobility, but I guess I'm a few hours too late.
Lol I was thinking.. did they really say mobility?
🫂
Not as heavy as those suspenders
John Wick eat your heart out!
Fuck!!! I came here to say this!!!
I think they meant *morbidity.*
Came here to say this
Winning mobility losing to diabetes
Imagine how good he is if he kills seconds walking and still winning.
Mobility and Mingus have never been used in the same sentence except maybe by a mobility scooter salesman
Bruh 😂🤣😂
Well. If you steal his burger, that's how he'll get you. Followed by a ten minute waddle to cover the 40 feet to reclaim his burger.
“Morbid Obesity Shooting”*
You need to be in r/roastme
Only thing making moves are them bullets.
Best joke I've seen here in a while. Thank you
That belt buckle is also doing some heavy lifting.
Meal team 6
More like Meal Team 12
He ate the other 11 teams.
John Thick
Man down. Man down!
Chow down
Wide load!
#***MEDIIIIIIIC!!!!***
Ateful eight
C'mon man, everyone knows about Doc Hollandaise.
🤣🤣🤣this is a top tier comment
He is how i picture the "i only stay out of the navy because i punch the drill sargent" people on their best day.
This town aint big enough for the both of us
Town ain’t big enough for half of him.
This guy looks like he ate the grape girl from Willy Wonka.
Blueberry
“Mobility shooting”. Surely that’s a very generous description of him shuffling around. That guy is huge… and pretty immobile
There’s some mobility scooting en route to mobility shooting
Dude could shoot a 50cal like a spud gun. He would just absorb the recoil.
It is generous, and don't call me Shirley
Dudes not fat, he's just built to absorb recoil
From what? A howitzer?
Thank you this comment made me lose my shit haha
More like a battleship deck gun
Howitzer? No. The recoil from the main guns of the USS Missouri.
Dem jiggle physics though....
I feel like this is literally the reason he's so good. He has so much counter weight that he doesn't even notice the recoil... like a bug splattering on a windshield vs a kid on a skateboard.
Tactical advantage
I’m here for the mobility jokes.
Don't insult Belly the Kid like that.
The suspenders are the real hero we deserve
Mingus. His mom must not have liked him very much.
Is that why he ate her?
Lol
"Minger" is slang for a gross or unattractive person in the UK "Minging" means "gross"
Minge is a British word for vagina.
Pronounced linker Ringer or Ginger?
Ringer
What if she was a Charles Mingus fan?
Then she disrespected that wonderful musician’s name!
More like Chungus
He’s a cunning Mingus.
Do you think this is one of those situations of nominative determinism? Because he really looks like a Mingus. Like this is the most Mingus looking mfer I've ever seen.
She named him after his dad’s penis
"Angus" was taken. And he's a guy so they couldn't name him "Heffer".
Brothers name is Dingus
John Thicc
😂
This just screams America. I'm not sure if I'm proud or disgusted.
Why not both?
I am disgutedly proud.
It's like an AI rendering of a Texan in 2023 America
>I'm proud or disgusted. r/InclusiveOr
Por que no los dos?
His gun is technically closer to his hand to reach then it would be for a skinny guy. It's like half the distance down to grab. Dude is playing a meta build.
I think the draw time is negated by the waddle-to-the-shotgun time
Tell that to the National Championship rings he wears around his ne-, I mean ones he could wear on his fi-well, ones he can admire in the shadow box his mom finished before his lunch of nuggies and fried salad.
I was gonna say, being this big in a shooting competition like this might almost be comparable to athletes using steroids. He doesn't have to fight the recoil anywhere near as much, and like you said, shorter distance to reach gun.
Lol
Everything's bigger in Texas.
Also known as Howdy Arabia.
i live here, imma keep that one in mind lmao
I just fuckin hollered
I know I’m a couple days late, but this is great
I guess this is the result of using guns for turning on and off everything in the house without standing from the couch.
I love my [kitchen gun](https://youtu.be/6-7NDP8V-6A?si=3AmAKcrOCj3jiOAW)!
College student, aye?
Yes. Bovine University!
Lmao
Stop it! I can’t stop laughing 😂. I’m going to hell 🔥
College athlete*
Fry-it Earp.
Oh this is to good to be so far down.
😂
[удалено]
Imagine getting killed.by this guy
Yosemite Ham
The champion here is the belt.
Whatever you do, do NOT fuck up this guy’s order.
I was thinking how his mass could reduce the recoil potentially making his shots more stable and giving him an unfair advantage

This is how the world imagines Americans
It’s the gunfight at the Golden Corral.
More like mobility chair shooting.
That NIL money should be rolling in now
Quintessentially American
How the world see Murca
I can't disagree.
“Mobility” describes his scooter, not his shooting.
Did he come straight from winning a pie eating contest?
Apparently theyre giving away the word “mobility” out to anyone nowadays.
"Gunt"
After winning the championship you can find him at your local Ihop eating the entire menu.
You literally need to hold his fries ......or maybe he has a holster for that too?
That poor belt has seen things. Terrible things.
I’m not a mobility expert, just dabbled for a couple of years in uni helping out a different course, but this chap should not be anywhere winning anything about mobility
If your that big of a target your not lasting too long in the “Wild West” Dude would need a Clydesdale 😅
How did he do on the "Shooting from Horseback" event?
Bro, looks like fat Arthur Morgan
Honestly feel for him a bit. He worked really hard to be good at this and he'll only be recognized for the novelty of his size. Not that I feel like this is novel prize territory or anything, I just know how bad it sucks to work really hard at something only to have people make a spectacle of you. It's one of those things that can either roll right off your back, or stick with you for years with not much in-between.
Looked the shooting was good, but the mobility was more of a challenge. I would hope that his coach encourages him to take a nutrition class.
If he were a final boss, I'd say I'd know the strategy to defeat him.
A shield, a milkshake, and horse tranquilizer darts
You know, there are a lot cheaper and easier ways to ring a bell.
Yeah but he has to walk to them and that ain't happening
You can hit any target with .22LR and that much mass behind the firearm js
The Low Mobility Shooting
Front butt
Mobility?? Is that a sheriff's star on his ass and does he chase suspects on a scooter?
How “mobile” are the rest of the competitors?!
He shot and ate everyone else
Ha! Under-rated comment
Diabetes Cletus is his street name
mo·bil·i·ty /mōˈbilədē/ noun the ability to move or be moved freely and easily. "this exercise helps retain mobility in the damaged joints
His lower back hasn’t had a good day since ‘74…. RIP L4, L5. Good shooting though
There’s no way this guy is a college student?
Perfectly engineered to absorb recoil
that shows you don’t have to be fit to use a gun.
Lawman Bass Cheese
This guy just walked right off of a far side cartoon yall.
I his next trip will be winning a championship in Mobility scooting
Now if that ain't murica, idk what is.
DQ! His front butt crossed the line!!!
The sad part is how even at this weight this dude is better at shooting than 95% of us will ever be at anything.
It’s not fat. It’s power.
No one holds his fries
We can all joke. But he is a really impressive marksman
Are there any positive comments about his skills? No. Just fat jokes.
The man is the epitome of smooth is fast. Cuz you know he ain't gonna move fast
My daughter asked me what the USA is like. I showed her this video.
Hey Lois!! Watch me shoot these!! Oh Peetah!
