if it doesn't make sense, it's because I'm "typing" with Swype or using android's voice to text, which is pretty damn good by the way

I think I remember an episode of Mythbusters where they hit a crash test dummy with a .50 cal. It didn't fly

They didn't hit a live body with all the tendons in the body held in extreme tension.

no i have a very weak stomach for gore. as i said before that "red-mist" so called sport of gopher hunting makes me sick and i would love to chase those motherfuckers around w/ a gun a see how they like it.

i just want to see if it's true the people go flying like my friend said. i find it hard to believe.

Believe it, we/you don't need to post it here. You can find it if you want to- along with many other things you may regret watching.

I don't get it, you would get sick from watching someone shoot a gopher, but you are asking to view a snuff flick of a human being, and you are cool with that?

Listen to the sound of that ricochet! It astounds me that civilians can get their hands on this kind of firepower :D



I also love how the future weapons guy seems to be sporting a permanent murderboner.

rifles, handguns etc will not send you flying. That is strictly a holloywood thing. The bullet, any bullet (barring some calibers) will cut right through you, not stop, lift and throw you.
So, if your buddy told you that people get lifted and thrown when they get hit, ...*sigh*, he's lying. lol

yes, there is an entire episode of mythbusters that exposes this particular myth.
Coconuts. Bananas. Mangos. Rice. Beans. Water. It's good.

It was a sniper team in Afghanistan, the spotter filmed it on a video camera as they shoot 3 different Taliban snipers. The bound tension in the different destroyed/severed attachment points of the tendons does indeed send stuff flying; like cutting into a golfball.
The Military snipers who pull the trigger have to see and live with it, I wouldn't call it a snuff film, more like seeing the truth of what we send our troops to do.
