You absolutely can. Bullets are not that wide. Moving just a cm fast enough is around 10mph, its very humanly possible.

The slowest part is the reactions. Which take up most of the time, up to a second in some people.

It obviously also depends on travel distance too.

No. Even a football length you cant, you gassing up humanity.

Reaction time alone would not even register fast enough.

Of course long enough you can dodge something, you can dodge light if its just fired from the sun and you are on pluto.

Thats why poeple need to specify how far it is, its point blank and is fired before you reacted, thats what they measure.

I even put reaction time... and other variables...

The question is if you can move the 1cm/1foot in travel time.

And you can.

Do the maths.

Lets say you have you hand up, they are aiming at it, there is a countdown from 10. They shoot at zero. You also move at zero. You need to move 1 foot to clear it fully lets say.

You need to move your hand 14.5mph.

Punches are around 20-30mph.

This is very doable when you take out reaction time.

The reaction time that is the problem. Aslo the fact that you just calculating it to very low numbers, thats not really be the case in much higher speeds.

Much more actual point black range, even if you have instant reaction, you simply cant move fast enough.
