Instagram star and professional poker player Dan Bilzerian was caught up in the shooting in Las Vegas on Sunday night.
In two Instagram stories filmed while fleeing the scene, the gun fanatic described scenes of chaos and alleged that he saw someone get shot next to him.

"F***, this girl just got shot in the f***ing head," Bilzerian told his 23 million followers in the first post, which was uploaded around 10 p.m. local time (PDT). "So f***ing crazy."
"So I had to go grab a gun. I'm f***ing headed back. It's f***ing so crazy - some kind of mass shooting," he said in the second video, which was broadcast about an hour later. "F***ing guy had a heavy calibre or whatever."
"Saw a girl got f***ing shot in the face right next to me," he said, before the clip cut out.
