A Canadian sniper now holds the record for longest confirmed kill in world history. He managed a two mile kill shot that took out an ISIS militant which now only makes him a hero, but a legend.
In case you were wondering, the previous record holder was a British soldier, Craig Harrison, who hit his target from an impressive 1.54 miles.
The rifle used to make the miraculous shot is a McMillan TAC-50. The bullet itself took 10 seconds to travel from the barrel of the rifle into the squishy terrorist who was approximately 2.14 miles away. If you’ve ever shot a gun, you realize how quickly bullets arrive at their destination.
The kill was recorded on video, according to a military source who spoke with The Globe and Mail. But this isn’t the only impressive shot made by Canadians.
