Backblast area not clear
Footage recorded back in 2011 captures the moment a rebel fighter engages military positions with a rocket propelled grenade. Unfortunately, the fighter forgot to complete one of the most important parts of prepping a rocket shot, and that's clearing the backblast area. For the fighter immediately behind him that was hit by the backblast, it likely meant death. Remember kids, kinetic energy always has to go somewhere. If you're shooting a rocket, that energy is being expelled behind you in the form of piping hot gas and rocket discharge.
