Season 4 would probably be one of the best seasons for me and the rest older. Why? It's because everyone actually works together compared later seasons where they actually ended up separated working on each of their own myths.

[@rmcgowa1987]

@@PointlessDrummer Agreed the bullet would not have reached it's apex yet meaning it would still be lethal enough. If the same parachutist were to be hit after the bullet reached it's apex and starting falling he would be fine and depending on how soon he got hit after it fell it may not have even reached it's terminal velocity yet so it might be even slower.

bullet fired straight up, i knew from start it's not lethal, those cases the doctor showed, were fired at and angle. it was hard to tell from that x-ray, but it looked like 60 degree angle or something like that. it's exactly what they said, it was fired under angle. i saw some people shooting fireworks pistol into air during new year's eve and they shot it under angle aswell. they thought they aimed 90 degrees, but it was closeer to 60-70 degrees.

[@kramllewop6183]

Surely the only way to shoot the bullet straight up and have it come straight back down - you would you need to be inside a very tall building as that's the only way to eliminate wind at the top of the bullets trajectory which would push the bullet into a parabolic arc 🤔

[@TheTrueBatBrain]

That wouldn't match a real world scenario

[@michaelcrichton2620]

😅😊😊😅😅😅😊

[@pepebeezon772]

It doesn't matter, it's dangerous when it's not fired straight up because there is very little X axis (side to side) deceleration, whereas on the Y axis (up and down) there is gravity that will completely strip the speed of the bullet before it's on the way down and therefore *falling* at terminal velocity. With wind the speed it can add is too negligible to have an impact, at least compared to the horizontal speed of a bullet *fired* in a ballistic arc which would be v*cos( angle to the ground). The 2 examples given are dogshit because a bullet that landed a mile away clearly traveled a long distance and not at terminal velocity.

[@pepebeezon772]

Also wind is not a constant acceleration unlike gravity, so even if an object spend hours in the wind it will not gather more speed. So in winds of 30 m/s, which is hurricane level, the highest horizontal speed a bullet fired straight up can possibly get from the wind is 30 m/s

Take in consideration that this is just shooting bullets at 90°, straight up. If you shoot at an arms length, you'll be firing at 45° and your bullet will kill the poor soul at the receiving end. Also: you can determine trajectories of a bullet based on a few data, so you are going to get caught.

[@josephtortona824]

You tested bullets fied straight up and falling straight down while losing spin - angled trajectory bullets just might have a higher terminal velocity maintaining their "SPIN" for maximum penetration.

[@mementomori5580]

Which is what they said after they visited the "falling bullet accident" expert where it turned out that the victims were all much further away from where the bullet originated from, making it an angled shot and thus not a "straight up" shot.

I'm not sure if this is a dumb question, but why is the terminal velocity of a flat spin bullet the same as one coming straight down? I thought, that can't be right but please explain it like I'm back in school please. 😊

[@randomprotag9329]

as a loose expanation the mass is the same, bullets are round so its functionally eqauly aerodynamic. theres no real factor that adds extra resistance to slow it down.

[@bambae7669]

To make it simple, bullets can't fall straight down due to their shape. The tail end of a bullet is much heavier than the tip, thus when you drop it, it will try to fall tail first. Even if you drop it straight down, by the time it reaches terminal velocity it will be traveling on it's side. The way an object falls, is ultimately based on the shape and distribution of mass. Humans & birds etc. can alter their falling speed by using their muscles to change their shape to change the amount of drag.

How can they have found the guy that fire the bullet that hit the lady ?

[@EdNutting]

Some guns in the US are registered - I.e. the state knows the gun and the owner. In some cases, registration of the weapon involves providing a sample firing of a bullet. In other cases, police investigations of firings from the gun will mean they have a sample on file. Fired bullets have a striation pattern - lines cut into the outside surface of the bullet. This happens when the bullet is fired. The rifling lines in the barrel - which cause the bullet to spin - also cut these lines into the bullet. Rifling patterns are imperfect even between two guns of the same kind. They’re considered unique like fingerprints. So the police match the rifling on the bullet to the rifling pattern they have on file, like matching fingerprints, and thus they know whose gun the bullet was fired from. Then obviously there’s a bunch of investigation to obtain evidence of who fired the gun and from where etc.

[@VeilingSun]

There are some methods that can help. For example, the bullets fired from most guns do leave some consistence trace, a signature, of the firearm due to the imperfections of the gun. Things like rifling or rifling imperfections can leave marks that differ from all other guns. Other things like low density areas like farmland where there are only a couple of people within a few miles of the victim. If the victim has cover over head and the bullet went through that too, the angle from the cover/roof to where the victim was hit can allow triangulation to where the bullet roughly came from to probably around 100m. There might also be people who witnessed the donut shooting his gun into the air. Most guns shooting in air are from celebrations and there tends to be congregations of people. If news goes out into the community that someone was hit by a falling bullet, some people who witnessed the guns firing into the air would likely speak up. The trick is just to put everything together.

[@daza3620]

There is actually a vodka brand called Grants here in the UK lol

[@medospecial5755]

i think they could have used a metal detector to find the bullets in the desert

[@ProfessorJayTee]

This only disproved if the bullet is fired EXACTLY straight up. That causes it to lose all of its muzzle velocity. When not true, the impact speed can be much higher. Gravitational acceleration PLUS remaining muzzle velocity.

[@Ryan_the_dawg]

Why didn't they use the balloon to determine the wind speed up higher like at the peak of it trajectory and a bit lower and alter the aiming accordingly, i think that you could get the bullet to land really quite close to yourself with enough testing and repetition (even though wind speed and direction changes quite swiftly) and with a device monitoring the wind speed constantly i dare say you could make a pretty good estimate of where it might land and plan the test accordingly.

[@DeetexSeraphine]

Is it me... or does that ballistics gel look way to occluded?

[@Reptex_cs]

22:20 this is dead wrong. The bullet was flying at higher than terminal velocity, which means the shooter didn't shoot straight up into the air.

[@larryjimbob]

A bullet is designed to give up all of its energy into the target. It'd be a pretty useless round if it didn't.

[@hvr1874]

Nope plenty of different bullet types and designs of which only designs grouped as hollowpoints are designed to expand and dispense as much energy as possible into a soft target. Wadcutters are designed to cut a neat hole in paper, different boat tail designs are designed to have the longest possible stabile flight, lead bullets are cheap, copper and polymer coated to be cheap but not foul barrels, copper bullets are designed to not deform and stay in tact ... Etc etc etc

[@larryjimbob]

@@hvr1874 I already anticipated this response. For example a .50cal wasn't initially designed for a human target but is obviously very effective due to it's mass and velocity. A round designed for a human target is going to release it's energy into the target mass for maximum impact as per it's design brief.

Doctor gives irrefutable proof something is possible - mythbusters be like "we need to see if myth is real or not" 😂

[@InexplicableInside]

Well no, he gave examples that seemed to match the arced shot that is explicitly not "firing straight up in the air". The fact that the Mythbusters team was unable to find any of the 30.06 bullets does suggest that people thinking they're firing straight up could still injure people, but there was no thorough proof either way. Also, remember that the semi-scripted on-camera interactions the Mythbusters have with experts are generally just snippets for TV (and often selected for ambiguity to preserve the 'myth'). Not only would I be stunned if that doctor hadn't asked for the previous experimental results and methodologies to give more specific answers, I'm surprised he didn't volunteer to join them for the salt flat experiment day.
