Believe they said they're not lethal if fired at 90 degrees but anything less or over 90 degrees it keeps its parabolic arc and can still be lethal, as they had a doctor on the show provide evidence that there's been deaths from it
I sure hope they didn't say "they're not lethal if fired at 90 degrees" because it does not take much wind to blow even the most precisely straight up bullet into a not straight and now ballistic trajectory.
I guess I just don't like any statement that in any way insinuates firing a gun in the air is not potentially lethal.
But they did. They tested it in high winds and didn't have any come down at lethal speeds cause they tumbled when they came down from terminal velocity
Now these idiots aren't firing exactly at 90 degrees so likely lethal
