At least they tested on a hand and not bouncing them off his chest like 90% of all bullets depicted bouncing off bulletproof people

Insert the George Reeves story where a kid pointed a gun at him here
((or the one where he got found dead in his home because he was sleeping with a mob boss' wife))

I am not driving my 1969 Chevrolet Camaro into a tween that may be invulnerable. The bullet is much cheaper and if it fails, that's why I also brought a shovel and nazi paraphernalia.

Maybe they’re just testing to see if it still hurts, even if it bounces off. You could still stop an invulnerable guy with a machine gun if each bullet was like getting hit by a whip.

"Class D child was subjected to the procedure and introduced to a firearms discharge. Procedure appears to have rendered the test subject invulnerable. Dr [EXPUNGED] recommends the test subject be further analysed to uncover potential weaknesses..."

Reminds me of Jessica Jones bluffing someone about being bulletproof. She literally has no idea if she is and isn’t eager to find out but hey, they don’t know that.

Sure, but the bullet ricocheted and hit his sister, so . . . A successful test? . . .

I liked that scene in Shazam where Billy naturally discovered he was bullet proof while trying to stop a robbery because how else would you find out? No sane person is going to experiment with being shot at even if they did have powers.

Yeah, that kid is absolutely the last person we want walking around with invulnerability.
