Not for the weak, gross picture

So a quick search seems to show these pics are ununrelated. One source mentions The hand is from a motorcycle accident...
Yeah I've seen the picture before, both of them now that I think of it.
I hope it's a fake story. That's way worse than any kaboom I've seen on the interwebs.
Fake.
Here is a link to the top 1/2 of the picture.

It states :
The photos below illustrate a catastrophic failure of a Glock 21. Again, this incident did not happen at Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, but is one of many such incidents elsewhere that are the reason why Front Sight has always required students to use factory new ammunition.The shooter of this pistol was using reloaded, full metal jacket ammunition. To the best of our understanding of the incident, the cartridge case was not sized properly, preventing the action from locking up fully, but allowing the action close enough to fire the weapon. The result was an open breech detonation of the cartridge. The photos speak for themselves. The shooter received severely bruised hands, with minor to moderate lacerations to his hands and face. We have received reports of similar incidents with the Glock 21 and I have personally witnessed a less dramatic incident with a Glock 21-magazine blown out of the weapon and shooter's hand bruised. In all incidents reported, reloads were used.
