Not sure, but the lack of blood, odd speech afterward, and no video of him being shot are all just weirdly disjointed.

I'm not saying it IS faked, but it sure looks and sounds like the Bond film where he faked killing the Soviet general. (Living Daylights)

Lack of blood is a point in favor of it being real.

Actual shootings don't have the huge pools of blood like in the movies.

I've spent many hours on live leak and you're wrong.

You can't see the floor around a lot of the body and real shootings don't involve massive blood splatter. Suicidal assassins aren't typically known for delivering eloquent monologues immediately after murdering diplomats, and it's not surprising that they would cut the feed before security could get in there and shoot the guy.

This thing isn't faked and anyone that thinks it is is a moron.

Their attempted coup this summer was odd as hell.

Does anyone else think the shooter had an abnormally long index finger? (Asking for my wife)

You can actually see one shot come out through his collar. About the 4th or 5th shot flips up he's left collar tab.

In no way do I think it was a hoax, but there were some strange coincidences that I would like an explanation for:

(1) I agree, there should be blood somewhere. In all of the different photos I've seen from different angles and with wide angle shots, I haven't seen blood anywhere. The floor looks slick so once he hit the ground I feel like blood would seep pretty easily beside him.

(2). Was the shooter the ONLY person standing behind the ambassador, and if so, why? It looked like to me that he was the only person behind him, which is strange. Unless he was on a security detail for this event which I haven't heard yet, then I don't get it.

Wounds to the chest sometimes bleed into the chest cavity and I read somewhere that he was security.

Gun shot wounds can cause sudden and severe drops in blood pressure followed by unconsciousness. The way the ambassador dropped straight down suggested that.

The internet has convinced people that fricking everything is a staged conspiracy.

Am I a sick person or did anyone else kind of laugh when you saw the "Get well soon" balloon in the picture?

There is definitely a large pool of blood in that pic. Look between what is his left arm and his leg

He shot a big guy with a 9mm in the chest cavity. Likely no exit wound and hence not much blood.

There's a reason military guys hate the 9mm.

9mm cause exit wounds. Also, I would say 25% hate the 9mm. The rest know that if you actually have to use your pistol, shite has already hit the fan.

Also, you can tell from the video that there were probably exit wounds. The ballistic trajectory of the rounds ricochets inside the body so there were probably fragments that exited. It's hard to tell but you can see his clothes move.
