Then he would have died, because the position he would be at would leave him completely exposed. McClane's accuracy is not as good as you overhype it to be. Look at the picture you posted. The distance between Bauer and the copter is wayyyyyyyyyyyy farther than the distance between McClane and the wirebox he shot at.
And Bauer's main goal was stopping Saunders. I love how much of a biased hypocrite you are with McClane feats 😆
Then he didn't "shoot down" the copter then. And he was lucky because if that box wasn't there, Simon would have lit his ass up.
It's not a testament to his skill with a handgun. It's only due to the circumstances (Simon's helicopter being right where the wires could tangle in it) that McClane didn't die there, because if McClane had to have solely relied on his revolver to get out of that situation, and no wirebox was present, Simon would have raped him.
At least Bauer needs only his handgun and nothing else. MCClane can't even say that.
And if it were so easy for him that time, then why did he drive like a bytch from Gabriel's men when he could have easily taken cover in the FBI agent's car and shot the copter down right on the street? It would have been far more efficient. Bauer would have done that, as he has proven feats of doing so.
😂 Hey, McDeez, the wirebox was more "readily visible" than the pilot or engine, so again, you are a trolling liar and hypocrite
The one Bauer shot down? Duh. They were shooting at him, so it's blatantly obvious. It also had more people than the copter McClane had to run away into a tunnel from, so it's not like McClane takes on more dangerous helicopters either.
No, actually it's quite the opposite. I proved both of my points, both that Bauer has better feats than McClane, and that you and Saddie are nothing but reprehensible trolls who engage in nonsensical bullshit strawmanning and outright lying because you wish to ignore the facts and spread lies, and there is nothing more despicable and pathetic than someone who purposely spreads lies as facts, IMO.

LoL, this clown. Get your shit straight, you had just said "It wasn't trying to attack Bauer" in regards to the helicopter, but now Bauer was hiding because he would have been shot, which is what I previously said and you disagreed and cried up some nonsense. Bauer was pinned and needed help and needed to be saved from said gunner who ha him pinned behind a wall. /fact
McClane has implausible accuracy when the scene cals for it, that's a perk he gets being an action movie star. So yes, in that scene he'd have shot the gunner and exploded the copter with his second shot in a nonsensical fashion. ie McClane Factor.
Correct and no one argued that Bauer's main goal wasn't trying t stop Saunders. But Bauer did get his ass pinned down and he needed to call in for help to both save his ass from a gunman and to stop Saunders. ie Bauer failed there. WHICH IS THE POINT. McClane's goal was to get Farrell to safety, he did so without help and he took out the threats by himself. McClane +2 Bauer 0
LoL. McClane shot a gun and a helicopter went down directly because of it. Just stop.
Just stop downplaying. Shooting a small power-box with a snub nose revolver is skillful and more importantly, deducing that the wires would break free and stop the helicopter shows INCREDIBLE on-the-fly thinking and ingenuity. Which Bauer lacks compared to McClane. McClane +1
LoL, what? The helicopter was flying above, had two machine guns and surprised everyone. Getting Farrell out of the immediate danger zone was needed most. He then went on to take out one gunner with a fire hydrant, something Baeur couldn't do in his grounded more in reality show. McClane +1
McClane was also "out of bullets", so shooting the copter wasn't an option. You've been told his 15+ times now, troll.
A small box is a much harder target than the side of helicopter or a human body, especially factoring in the gun McClane has in that scene and that McClane hd to factor in the wire trick as well. But no, you're right, just shooting at helicopter is more impressive than the implausible scenario McClane did.
Post the Bauer helicopter scene, as you've consistently shown that you ridiculously over-hype Bauer's feats. POST IT OR SHUT UP ALREADY.
Incorrect. You've proven that you downplay McClane's feats (eg launching a car being not impressive), boost Bauer's (eg your nonsense about Bauer in the Chinese consulate being 99% wrong) and absolutely beyond a doubt do not know what a "strawman argument" entails. So do stop accusing others of it.
