'People are dying, you're running away': War hero slams Dan Bilzerian filming himself during Vegas massacre
A Medal of Honour winner has ripped into the so-called ‘King of Instagram’, Dan Bilzerian, after he shared footage of himself running away from the Las Vegas shooting scene while describing how he saw a woman get shot in the head.
The clip shows Bilzerian running away from the country music festival where Steven Paddock gunned down 59 people from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Hotel:
The American playboy and failed Navy SEAL can be heard screaming “Holy f**k, this girl just got shot in the f*****g head”.
“So I had to go grab a gun, I’m f*****g heading back,” Bilzerian said.
Afghanistan veteran Dakota Meyer, who is married to Sarah Palin’s daughter, has now accused the known gun advocate of acting “tough when the cameras are on”.
“This is what kills me about people like you,” Meyer wrote on Instagram.

“Always playing 'operator dress up' and so, so tough when the cameras are on.
“A woman just got shot in the head and you are running away filming that's not what operators do.
"Please stop trying to be someone your not. People are dying, you're running away not helping them and pretending it's worthy of a video is disgusting.
“This is why children shouldn't classify heroes by their followers or their photos.”
Meyer became the youngest ever recipient of the Medal of Honour for his heroism during the Battle of Ganjgal on September 8, 2009.
