This video from Kentucky Ballistics explores the effects of firing various firearms underwater. The expert instructor demonstrates how water significantly impacts bullet performance and firearm function, ranging from minimal bullet deformation in handguns to catastrophic failure in rifles like the AR-15. The .50 BMG test highlights extreme power, breaching the target and pool structure.
This video provides an update on a previous .50 BMG underwater shot, clarifying viewer questions about a shiny object. Edwin Sarkissian uses unedited footage and slow-motion analysis to demonstrate the bullet's trajectory after exiting the pool, impacting a dirt road approximately 10-12 feet away. The analysis confirms the bullet hit the ground, causing a dust cloud, and likely ricocheted.
