"Young people who pretend to be wise to the ways of the world are mostly just cynics. Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the farthest thing from it. Because cynics don't learn anything. Because cynicism is a self-imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us." -SC

So the round goes through his brain bucket, his skull stops it, but he knows the hat works now? I think I know that guy.

I am guessing the brain bucket probably helped slow the round enough so the old mk1 cranium could deflect the rest. Had he not been wearing a helmet I am guessing he would be planted in the ground now.

Obviously a ha><><0r. No way a head shot doesn't kill in BF2!

The human skull is pretty darn tough. I worked in nursing homes way back when, and one of our residents was a kid who'd tried to kill himself by shooting himself in the head. Fortunately for him, his skull largely deflected the point-blank shot and he didn't die. Unfortunately for him, he still managed to get a brain infection as a result that left him pretty much a vegetable :P

The skull can take a rather impressive amount of punishment before opening up or fracturing.
That squishy stuff on the inside though? Not quite so much.

Well, the article said it was a "fragment" that did the damage....
Also, I'm just guessing here, but that "sniper's" rifle probably was not in mint condition.

Funny, I hear the radio-static-beeping-ping noise that the faceless soldiers in HL2 make when you kill them
