After shooting for many years I find it very hard to imagine a bullet doing that.

The camera never shows his head.

The time between shot, impact and return is to long. Who know's about a 50 cal but my 300 Mag travels at over 3000ft per second...

Not to mention a 50 cal is serious hardware! If he got hit in the head I would think there would be a decent hole, even if it did bounce off the ground first.

  • Still have a turbo, it's just on a diesel.

The only way I can see it happening is if it was coming back in a high arch, that would take a lot of the speed off the round so when it hit the ground it only just bounced.

Myth busters proved that a bullet falling a terminal velocity does not have enough energy to kill, still fricken hurts thou.

I have never seen a Ricochet bullet do a 180 I think its a fake all Ricochets I have seen flick off to the right due to the rifeling of the barrel.
