The raid that killed terrorist No. 1 Osama bin Laden provided a good business idea for a former Navy SEAL who is now charging $325 per person to reenact the U.S. covert military operation, The Daily News America reported on Sunday.
Larry Yatch of New Hope, Minn., is offering visitors at the Sealed Mindset Firearms Studio to clutch paintball guns and pretend to be highly trained Navy SEALs sneaking into a compound in Pakistan to kill a bearded man in a white robe.
The retired SEAL told Minnesota Public Radio the game wasn’t simply for entertainment but also to teach people self-defense.
“It's the people that maybe might be a little intimidated around a gun or don't necessarily feel comfortable having to fight with someone, those are the people who we can make the biggest difference in their lives,” he told the radio station.
The fake Al Qaeda compound is set up in the basement of the Sealed Mindset studio that also hosts self-defense classes and firearms training.
Over the past four months, 137 people have signed up to pretend to kill the top Al Qaeda man.
