I actually know several "script kiddies" capable of this shit.

They basically sit on botnets that consist of anywhere from 10k to 100k compromised hosts, that take commands and work at the drop of a dime.

Basically what this "botnet" will do is have all 100k highspeed bots send ping requests and large packets of data to the server IP.

I know for a fact there is very little that can be done about an attack of this scale.

The usual outcome is that the attacker gets bored and stops, or he has another need for his bots and pulls them off the attack.
