An IS member captured his last moments on the battlefield in POV by using a GoPro helmet cam during clashes with the Iraqi army.

The footage shows him in battle with Iraqi soldiers when he suddenly got hit while picking up a magazine to reload his weapon.

He was most likely downed by Iraqi soldier shooting at him from the roof of the building.

This is the first time ever GoPro helmet cam POV footage like this surfaced and gives an uniqe impression of what it looks like to die in real life.

And oddly enough, it looks very similar to dying in COD or any other FPS game.

Situational awareness. Some people have it, and some people don't.
