This video delves into the complexities of ballistics, particularly terminal ballistics, using the Charlie Kirk investigation as a case study. The speaker, a former sniper and Green Beret, explains the numerous variables affecting projectile performance, from ammunition engineering to environmental factors. He emphasizes the unpredictability of terminal ballistics and debunks common misconceptions, advocating for an evidence-based approach to investigations. The discussion also touches on the importance of critical thinking in the face of misinformation and the challenges of political polarization.

This video details the creation and analysis of a 3D crime scene model of the UVU campus, generated using drone photogrammetry. The presenters discuss the technical aspects of drone surveying, data processing, and the inclusion of specific elements like a tent and potential shooter positions. They also provide a tutorial on using the 3D modeling software, Rhino 8, to analyze the scene, including drawing lines for trajectory and measuring distances. The discussion touches on the accuracy of the model compared to tools like Google Earth and explores various potential lines of sight and shooter positions based on the 3D reconstruction.
