Captured: Moment Afghan soldier defuses suicide vest with terrorist still wearing it
An Afghan bomb disposal expert defied all the training manuals and safety protocols to take life into his own hands.
He bravely defused this suicide bomber's explosive vest, with it still attached to the man.
Security forces captured the suicide bomber in Jalalabad before he could blow himself up, tying up the man to stop him detonating the device.
Covered from head to foot in padded protective gear, the soldier then disarmed the bomb while it was strapped to the man’s chest.
For Hollywood fans, the Afghan National Army soldier will bring back memories of the blockbuster film ‘The Hurt Locker’ – about a bomb disposal expert.
After successfully disabling the device, the suspect was loaded into a truck.
