That isn't two bullets impacting in the air after being fired. The bullet that is penetrated has no rifling marks, so was unfired.


Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

So the penetrated bullet was in a bandolier or something perhaps? May of saved the wearer's life then.

Where does it say the bullets met in the air?


There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

The bullets met on Ammomatch.com.

There is a whole panoply of objects that have been struck by bullets and saved someone's life. I believe a laptop recently had this honor in Turkey if I recall correctly.
Another bullet would certainly rank as one of the smallest, though.

Doesn't state that in the linked article but I've seen it claimed about the subject bullets many times elsewhere.

about to burnt during prohibition. How could they get these barrels stacked so
well.

It doesn't say that, but the presentation implies that.

The submarine valves was crazy looking. Looks like the 3 Stooges put those in. It doesn't seem like any of them are even labeled.

Those whiskey kegs would make one hell of a bonfire. Would like to see the picture of that.
