My Story...Predator666

Greetings fellow hunters, think its about time I introduced myself. Hi my names Bryan aka Predator666, I'm from Dublin, Ireland. Delighted to see theres more Irish Preds here. Only recently joined whilst lying in a hospital bed so thought it was about time although I've been following the site for a year and a half now. So I'm proud and honoured to be amongst so many talented individuals and fanatics. So here's my story...
I work for a Cash In Transit company delivering cash etc to banks and Atms. So Jan 20th I was in work at 7am, at 7.20am we left our base of operations and arrived at our first location at 7.35am. I jumped out of our van and as I went to put keys into an atm door 3 Masker Raiders armed with double barrel shotguns ran around the corner at me and set off a warning shot beside me and screamed "get on the ground now", looking down the barrel of a loaded shotgun, I wasnt gonna argue. So 2 of them marched me to the back of the van both holding their guns to the back of my head whilst the 3rd was waiting on a motorbike. Realising I'd no access to cash and with people in nearby cars screaming etc 1 shouted "SHOOT HIM, SHOOT HIM, KILL HIM NOW OR I'LL KILL HIM", At that point I was already kneeling down still with 2 guns held at hm head I thought "**** I'm Dead, never gonna see Marina(My Fiancee) again" So 1 of the raiders took a step back and shot me throgh the side of my foot/ankle. Shot was so powerful it flipped me and then they fled the scene. Cops and ambulance arrived some 30 mins later of which some caring civilians were comforting me, every1 was amazed I was laughing saying I'm alive lads can I just go to the hospital cause my foots cold. Watched the medics remove my boot and blood poured out so then I seen my foot and said "sure thats only a scratch", once again they laughed at me. So I was rushed to hospital under 7 armed gardai(cops) escort. So now there's a police national investigation going on cause I was all over the news and papers, unnamed for legal and safety reasons.
So in hospital I'd major surgery to save my foot as I'd 350 pellets inside it, woke up following day when surgeons had to then remove 1.5metres of stuffing gauze from the foot still have 150 pellets left in there, then they attached a machine inside the foot called a VAC to try regrow and fill the hole. Not a pretty sight watching stuff being sucked out of a tube( I'm into blood and gore so thought it was deadly looking). Eventually the hole was too big and I was too high a risk that I'd loose my foot so they had to graph the area, So I'd all the skin plus 3 small strips of muscle removed from my thigh to fill in the hole. I underwent that surgery awake cause I wanted to see what it looks like. So its still touch and go as I can still loose my foot plus I'm in constant pain and agony and my foots ****** up. Twice a week I'm in the hospital having my wounds redressed. I've been told if I'm walking within 2 years now I'm lucky... I have to be able to walk down the aisle for Marina next year fingers crossed. But my whole life has been changed both mentally and physically so its hard to stay positive. Motto of my story IT TAKES MORE THAN A SHOTGUN GO KILL A PREDATOR!!! If it wasn't for Marina I'd have given up all hope, she's my rock, bedside vigil, my life, love of my life, my everything. To me she's the most beautiful woman in the world heart, mind, body and soul. She deserves the best!!!
I've been in touch with casey(biohunter76) for over a year now as he built me an animatronic wolf pred suit, he used his amazing talents and worked nonstop for 6 months on this 1 of a kind, his only produced wolf pred. After he sent me photos of the wolf helmet last year I was jumping for joy and couldn't wait but its gone missing since being posted and both of us are freaked out now cause I know he puts his heart and soul into all his masterpieces but I really needed a booster and getting well enough to get into that suit was what I was aiming for as I've always wanted a pred suit. But we're having no luck whatsoever and the postal service aren't quite being helpful in any way!!! Anyway Hope to hear from all you fellow hunters soon, all the best.
So Here's some photos of the love of my life(my reason for living), our kids(2 dogs Breezer and Kiwi) and photos of my foot and thigh and its progress??? including an x-ray of my foot now,

Dude thats mental, my heart goes out to ya
Bad thing to happen, but from what you where explaining it could of gone alot worse
Hang in there

Well thats one hell of a story!!! Best of luck for a speedy recovery and fingers crossed that you can walk down the aisle next year! Welcome to the lair.
 
Cheers guys, true could've been the end of me but thankfully I'm still here. :) Just have to take it easy and remain posititve, whatever happens happens, and either way next year I'll get down the aisle- She'll have to give me a jockeyback- That'd be comical
 
That’s ****** up man Hang in there!
I have had some run inns with death before.
I too have had to looking down the barrel of a loaded gun, but I got really ******* lucky that day because there guns jammed up on them when they tried to shoot me in the face!
I knew I had that one small chance to save myself from dyeing so I used some self defense training I learned from my best friend who is a cop and a Martial artist to save myself that day, They both went to jail for life for that and other things they had done. It was a unique experience for me. To me it was like TV or like it wasn’t happening to me type of feeling. To me it’s not so much a scary feeling as I am not really scared to die but I won’t let death take me with out a fight! The medics tried to give me some kind of pill to relax me but I didn’t want them.

So Bryan did the Cops catch them yet? :) I hope they do.
I'm sure you'll make a full recovery it may take some time but I'm sure of it!
You'll be able to wear your Predator suit and kick ass!

Get well soon! :p

No, no such luck! Sometimes the Scum of the earth walk free but their time will come. Just hope its the cruelest way ever. I haven't heard anything yet from the cops. I'll be in contact with them soon, hopefully they'll have good news. Really dying to get my hands on my pred suit but like I said postal service lost it and haven't bothered trying to locate it. And as I've said Casey put his heart and soul into this costume, so you know its ace. Thanks for your kind regards and sorry to hear something similar happened to you, atleast thank god you came out on top! Ps love the spawn bio, looks deadly. All the best mate :)
 
Sorry to hear about your incident with the fuckwits. Surprising what people will do for money, and apparently life is cheap to more and more people. :)

good luck on both your recovery and suit turning up, Make sure you post pics WHEN it turns up ( see "WHEN it urns up", being positive for you )
 
Sounds like you've been to hell and back and yet you've still managed to keep your sense of humor!
Thanks for sharing your story...you have a lot of courage and strength my friend...
 
Wow. Now this isn't a thread I was expecting!
Hope you recover properly mate, that looks nasty! Thats one hell of a story, and it's great you have something (the Lair and building a suit) and someone (your beautiful fiance and the impending nuptuals) to keep your spirits up.
I hope you find the parcel from Casey, from what I have seen his work is unbelievable.
There's not a lot I can say about your situation, have no idea what it must be like, but wanted to show some support nonetheless!
Take it easy :)

Dude I read your story. You are a brave and strong solider. Your pictures tell it all. Damm it takes guts and courage to survive that. Hang in there bud. God bless you and your family. Only the strong survive. Hope those guys get caught and burn in hell :)
 
Guys all your kind words are very much appreciated. Helps raises spirits aswell. I'm very similar to P2, both looked down the barrel of a shotgun, were shot and wanted to kill the "************" who shot us. Except I didn't run home, although wish I had the technology to patch up my wound there and then and walk off like nothing happened! :) And yeah really truelly keeping my fingers crossed about the suit, I know Caseys work is amazing but we're waiting since September of last year for it. Neither of us are happy about it not showing up yet or about the post offices attitute about it! And with regards to my beautiful fiancee she's my rock who keeps me strong and everyday is worth living for just waking up next to her, her smile brings me hope! Once again guys appreciate your concerns and best wishes, it really does help
 
Man, you have my sympathies. I hope you pull through it, and it's great that you've got someone who's there for you. Glad to have you on the lair. :)
 
Firstly..glad to hear it didnt end alot worse and a speedy recovery and they will be caught (yup..sometimes we do work and catch em :) ) and hopefully An Post find it and it was insured. Keep on top on them about it though, FedEx lost my screen used items before and I hounded them and it arrived alot quicker and finally...welcome another Dub! We are slowly gathering and building our forces muahaha

I have to say though man, thats some story and alot for anyone to have endured. Even judging by how you talk about it shows you will get through this stronger than most. Keep the head up man
 
Seriously mate you're an inspiration. Don't quite know how'd i'd react in that situation. :) Been attacked a couple of times but nothing like that. Human beings continue to amaze me. Either by their total disregard for each other or their unwillingness to give up under the most horrible circumstances. You deserve all the happiness you get from this day forth.
Like evreyone says keep harrassing the posties! It'll turn up. I have a casey Wolf bio and it's better in the flesh than you can imagine, can't wait to see your whole suit.
All the best.
Tim
 
Byran,

Wow, intense story. Very sorry that had to happen to you, and wishes go out that it heals up without a glitch. That's a pretty bad wound, from the spread it looks like it was pretty close and they used some type of small shot.

You were fortunate and unfortunate at the same time. That small shot is horrible and you will probably always have a few pellets in there but anything bigger would have more than likely removed your foot. Then you would have had to do the ol p-2 cauterizing gimmick. :)

All jokes aside, I hope you recover quickly.

Rich
 
Aw, man I feel for you, truly. I can relate to you, or more accurately my mother can relate. She badly broke her ankle a few years ago and after several surgeries she is now undergoing the wound VAC and if that doen't work she too will have to have a graft done. In fact, she's having another surgery Monday. I hope everything works out for you.
 
Dude you are killing me with the story it freaking sucks what happened to you!
any progress on the vermin that did this to you?
are they caught? any leads?
Congrtatulations on your up coming marriage!
also when you get married would you not feel really good if a bunch of us from the lair who has full Pred Costumes went to your wedding in full gear as ushers?
but anyway can't wait for progress reports on your foot

and don't worry in no time you will join the hunt again while being stronger..
recover well my friend.
many blessings to you and your fiance and the kids...

you are one lucky man to have such a caring and beautifull lady at your side!
all the best regards
sincerly
L.Torre
 
Hey Bryan, I'm glad to see you posting here and sharing your story. The Lair is a great place full of great people. A home away from home for some of us.
