Short of being SUPERMAN, there's NOTHING currently made that would have protected them even if they were wearing 'protective' gear. This was a 'once in an ungodly number' occurrence where the 'machine' malfunctioned and didn't stop firing until it ran out of ammunition. I probably could have ended sooner by human intervention, but my guess is THEY were all ducking for cover and running for their lives to get away from the situation.<br><br>Read, re-read and read again before 'jumping' to conclusions.
