Transcript

00:00It sucks to be old

00:08An Illinois man

00:11Who police say

00:14Shot himself in the leg

00:17While he was dreaming about burglars

00:22That sucks, huh?

00:24Has been charged with firearms offenses

00:27Oops

00:28Sleeps with that guy

00:31He's just like

00:33Somebody's trying to break in

00:38Somebody on my land

00:41Somebody's on my land

00:44Oh man, you can't sleep with it

00:55No

00:56Especially if you have dreams like that

00:58You can sleep near it

01:00Yeah

01:00Know where it is, have it ready

01:03Yeah, can't cuddle it

01:04The 68-year-old Lake Barrington man survived the accidental shooting

01:09And no one else was hurt, luckily

01:10He was charged with possessing a firearm

01:12With a revoked firearm owner's identification

01:15Which is required in Illinois

01:17And reckless discharge of a firearm

01:20The man was arrested on a warrant

01:24He is free after he posted bond

01:26Shooting happened about 9.50 p.m.

01:28So he'd been asleep for hours

01:29Oh yeah

01:30Hours

01:30Yeah, right in REM sleep

01:33Right in REM sleep, yeah

01:35Right in the middle

01:36First responders needed to use a tourniquet

01:39To stop the bleeding

01:41Sure, sure

01:43He said he was dreaming that people were breaking into his home

01:46And he fired a .357 caliber revolver

01:50I'm telling you

01:51This should more and more

01:52Like when you're trying to decide to be with somebody

01:55You need to ask them about their dreams

01:58You need to ask them

02:01So

02:01You ever got up

02:03You ever

02:04Found yourself in like a different room

02:07And woke up

02:08Like you do things in your sleep

02:10That are scary

02:10I can't imagine being with someone who does stuff in their sleep

02:15Yeah

02:16Me either

02:17No way

02:17Because to me

02:18You wouldn't sleep well

02:19No

02:19Eventually you're attacked

02:21Because it's a nightmare or something like that

02:23And then you're the one that's beside them

02:25Besides sleep sex

02:26Yeah, there could be an upside

02:28There's upside

02:29There could be an upside

02:30But also

02:31Could get murdered

02:33Well, downside

02:33Downside

02:34Downside

02:35Upside sex

02:36Downside murder

02:37Yeah, I mean

02:38Hopefully you just can somehow talk him into

02:40You know, awake sex

02:42For sure

02:43But extra bonus

02:45Nighttime sleep sex

02:46Like you don't want to be with someone who can grab a gun maybe

02:49And start shooting it

02:50I feel like this guy was sleeping with a gun in his hand

02:53I feel like it too

02:54You'd have to, right?

02:56Like under your pillow

02:57Or like

02:58It had to be right beside him

02:59He was really ready

03:01He was too ready

03:02Yeah

03:03Maybe things happen where he lives

03:04He's gotta be ready

03:05Yeah, that's true

03:06He's just an old guy

03:07Just an old guy

03:08That's it

03:08It doesn't seem like it would be like

03:10Crazy, dangerous place

03:11It's this little village of 5,000 people

03:13Yeah, but no

03:15And like Andy said

03:16Just old guy

03:17Old guy

03:17Just old guy

03:18Everybody's always trying to steal stuff from me

03:20Break into my property

03:21I hope they do

03:22I sleep with this

03:24Smith & Wesson

03:25I got a Colt 45

03:28I wonder if he woke up and thought

03:32Someone shot him at first

03:33Maybe

03:35I think you'd be very confused

03:37If you woke up with

03:38A gunshot wound

03:39Yeah

03:39Right?

03:40Trying to figure out

03:40Especially if you're headed

03:41You convinced people were breaking into your eyes

03:43Yeah

03:44Yep

03:44How dumb does he feel?

03:46Oh, God

03:47He had to make that call

03:48Imagine that

03:509-1-1

03:51Oh, boy

03:52You know

03:54Well, hurry

03:56Number one

03:57Hurry and get here quick

03:58But

04:01Shot myself in the leg

04:04I cuddle my gun at night

04:06Yeah, well, you shouldn't do that

04:07I do

04:08I'm ready

04:09You know how many

04:11Kids there are these days

04:13Trying to break in

04:14Oh, we'll send somebody right away, sir

04:16I'm dying

04:17So, please hurry

04:20My blood is going out

04:24I mean, yeah

04:26Yeah

04:27That magnum makes a big hole on the way out

04:30Oh, sure

04:31Yeah, I wonder

04:32Pretty serious damage to himself there

04:34I'm hoping it was maybe grazed and

04:36Well, tourniquet, though

04:37So, he got himself

04:38Tourniquet, yeah

04:39He got himself

04:40Oof

04:40I had

04:41Just remember what happened to me last night

04:44So, I woke up

04:45Actually, I was

04:46I was about to fall asleep

04:48Yeah

04:48And I'm like

04:49I should probably pee before I go to bed

04:51So, I put one foot out of the bed

04:54Onto the floor

04:54I woke up like that

04:56Seven hours later

04:57So, you didn't quite make it

04:59Even out

05:00I had

05:01I was laying in the bed

05:02Did your leg fall asleep?

05:05Your foot fall asleep?

05:06Did you pee the bed?

05:06And then you peed the bed

05:07No

05:07Thankfully, I did not piss the bed

05:09Yeah

05:10That's in a few years

05:11Yeah

05:12I'm not at the piss the bed stage yet

05:14But I had

05:17One leg out of the bed

05:20Dangling on the side

05:21And the rest of me in the bed

05:24And I woke up like that

05:25When my alarm went on

05:26Oh, God

05:26You were tired

05:27You must not have needed to go that bad

05:30Oh, I went hard all day yesterday

05:32I had all sorts of stuff to do

05:33Just collapsed

05:34Wow

05:35But yeah, it wasn't really like an urgent need

05:37I'm like

05:38I should probably do that

05:39I understand that

05:40Before bed

05:41Yeah

05:42And then I'm like

05:43This morning when the alarm went up

05:44I'm like

05:45Did I not pee?

05:47I didn't pee

05:48Well, it's just funny

05:49Because like you've said

05:50You fall asleep

05:51And whatever position you're in

05:53When you fall asleep

05:54Is how you sleep the whole night

05:55Yeah

05:56You know

05:56Generally

05:57I must have a restless night

05:59But most nights

05:59I'm just

06:00To me, I think

06:01Even if my leg was off the bed

06:02When I fell asleep

06:03I would move a couple times

06:04During the night

06:05And I would never know

06:06I would never know

06:07You just woke up

06:08It was cold as ice

06:09Surprised your foot didn't fall asleep

06:11Or something

06:11Well, yeah

06:11Like the blood

06:12It was a little

06:13It took me a while

06:14To kind of

06:15Oh, man

06:15Get out of bed

06:16But

06:16It was very

06:17I've never done that before
