Very disappointing result based on your gif



I know but I like to be dramatic. Maybe they will try an actual flamethrower mounted on a drone the next time around. Maybe that can eventually take out fireproof material.

They get an "A" for effort but...

The fireproof flag was undamaged and the attempt failed


Can't wait to see what they come up with next. 4chan's trolling of Shia with the HWNDU flag has been the funniest thing on the internet in years

They could do the same attempt except just spray it with paint.

EDIT: If I remember correctly, one time it was in a random corn field in Nebraska and they used bird migration patterns and some other crazy %$#& from the video feed to narrow it down and then people drove around honking until others heard it on the feed and navigated them to its location. Absolutely hilarious.


Actually I think it was in Tennessee. But they figured out the general location by using the constellations at night and flight path data from planes that passed in view of the camera. Once they had the general location figured out, then they used a driver honking his horn until they could hear it on the video feed.

Use the Brylcreem approach, a little dab will do you - if we're talking acid here.

Those Trump guys are devoted

OP - is that the video of the actual burning of the flag? I didn't see that in the article is why I ask.

4chan went all sherlock holmes on it. First they tracked geographical location by star patterns and sunrise/set. Tracked it to Tennesse and then moved on to the cabin's wood pattern that he had rented out and broadcasted from. They found pictures online of cabins and matched the wood pattern with the one he was at, then they tried renting them to see availability and found one that was rented out for the length of the month long event. Then one of the guys to verify went driving by beeping his horn, they heard it on the live stream. They then stole the flag and raised a MAGA hat and Pepe shirt up the pole.


Right. They also utilized airplane contrails and eventually matched the times to only occurring over a small area in Tennessee. At the end, one user would call out when a plane would be flying over, he was right every time. They also analyzed the local insect and frog sounds, identified species, basically confirming SE US as the general location. Amazing stuff, I'm glad they're on our side.

It's basically a crowdsourced bizarro intelligence agency, to be honest.

Lebouf may be a doofus but the drone person is no better.
