    @Catogrande I honestly think you're all being mean. It's an unfortunate accident that could have happened to anyone. Everyone knows a book will stop a 50 cal bullet 99% of the time. Which is why they use books as the plating on armoured vehicles all over the world.

    I'm not exactly optimistic about the intelligence level of our race generally, but... they didn't even consider the concept of a "test run" ?
    Just... awesome.

    @Kruse yeah that's what I like best. Either couldn't afford two bullets or couldn't afford two books. Probably bullets, as surely you could use the same book twice.

    Edit: actually, how brilliant were the 30 onlookers. Not a peep out of even one? Kudos.

    To be fair if you shoot from more than 1 foot away you risk not hitting the book. That could be fatal.

    Australia doesn't tend to get a rep as a cold place, but a couple of hours west of Sydney, in a place called Goulburn, it gets fucking cold occasionally.
