In this episode of Movie Myth, we explore the popular belief that gunshots can throw people off their feet. While bullets travel incredibly fast and pack a concentrated force, the size and momentum of the bullet are too small to knock a person off their feet. Factors such as bullet weight and location on the body also play a role in the impact felt by the victim. However, the shooter is more likely to experience the backward force of recoil, which can be strong enough to knock them off their feet. Join us as we dive into the science behind this Hollywood trope and debunk the myth once and for all! #MovieMyths #GunshotMyths #DebunkingMyths #ScienceExplained #HollywoodScience #BulletImpact #GunRecoil #MythBusting #Shorts #YouTubeShorts
