California Redditor Claims Razer Headset Saved Him from Taking a Headshot from a Stray Bullet

A redditor from California this week claimed that a stray bullet went through his window, and his life was saved by his Razer headset.

It could be a hoax, of course, but the photo is interesting.

From what I can tell, the bullet probably would have just grazed his hairline anyway.

But I guess it’s a funny story. This is just normal American life now.

After people accused the poster of faking this, he posted a follow-up with more photos, showing the hole in the window, the place where the bullet hit the wall, and then where it landed on his bed.

The headset is the original Kraken.

It’s not hard to believe the story. Bullets come through windows all day long in basically any urban center in America. It’s a part of the diverse heritage of our vibrant culture.

Razer should definitely use this in advertisements though. All advertisements are only allowed to have black people now, so this will actually work. Show a black kid playing NBA 2K with the headset on and a bullet coming through the wall and bouncing off of it – the kid just ignores the bullet, then lands the dunk before turning to the camera to wink.
