Or maybe some bullet fell through a roof somewhere and we're off and running again (that's a really bizarre story). Or? Yeah, the mythbusters did a whole thing on it. They found it to be a myth but admitted they had interviewed doctors in the middle east who say they have cases of falling bullets killing people. I have to wonder how a bullet falling so slow could come through a roof (becoming distorted) and then enter a head so far as to not be seen until an autopsy. I would believe a ricochet from inside, or a direct shot during a disturbance more. Something fishy there in my mind... A falling bullet is one thing, there's not much power there, but a bullet shot at something less than 45 degrees, could easily kill someone quite a distance away. Uh...I would dispute the "finding" that a bullet falling towards the earth after being fired "straight up" has "not much power." I have seen a falling bullet hit the roof of a metal storage building and go right on through. I'm sure there are legitimate reports of deaths and serious injuries resulting from bullets fired into the air. |
