What a bad ass. "Oh shit we're all going to die!" "ME FIRST!"
What a hero. He gave up almost any chance of survival to reduce shrapnel spread, which saved his girlfriend's life...
While not diminishing the heroism, laying atop a grenade might be among the least bad ways to go during the attack. One instant you're there pumped on hero juice, the next instant you're gone. No leftover brain activity to experience who knows what while actively dying.
When it happens to you, please let us know what your reaction was and who survived.
If I found myself in such situation I'd have zero balls or awareness to jump on a nade.
I'd probably grab the thing with my monkey reflexes and result in bringing it up for a better vantage point once it goes off.
I've seen enough Ukranian drone drop videos with grenades landing on Russians to know that being on the receiving end is absolutely not immediately lights out.
Damn.
Huge flex for sure.
