Penis size is not directly proportional to the size of any other part of a persons's body. It is not two fists, thumb to pinky, thumb to middle finger, or tip of middle finger to middle of palm.

He says, "Frost, it sometimes makes the blade stick." if I remember right. Frost makes even the bolt on a rifle stick. A bit of water gets in there and freezes it shut, just like car doors.

No, the only bad thing about you are your teeth.

Hell, Britain gave us Monty Python, they can't be bad!

And my favorite beeing knocked back by a bullet.
One of Newton's laws of motion, I think it's the second or third one outright proves that to be knocked of your feet by a bullet would the force produced would have knock the one holding the gun over from massive recoil.
If you get hit by a 7.62mm round, used in say, AK-47's or battle rifles, you -will- be knocked down. That round is heavy and it is hitting you hard.

For my own contribution.
Shooting a flamethrower's tank won't make it explode, the fuel will just spray out and knock the person with the tank on their back off of their feet.

Ill start with gunshots being very very loud.Apparently they sound more like firecrackers.
Depends what's being fired, and where. A .22 rifle fired in an open field makes a firecracker sound scary.

However, a .50 caliber revolver fired in an enclosed room may very well make you regret having ears.

This is true.

VERY LOUD! Especially in tight spaces, guns can deafen you permanently.

The physics you speak of is different, like newtons cradle, its his working example for that effect. However with a gun its different as there are dozens of different components for shock absorption and changing effects. For example, gun springs, gas outlets, directional force (going out the tube is easier than pushing back), aerodynamics, power of explosion vs strength of medium, the physics behind gunfire are many. And even then firing a gun the wrong way can knock you off your feet.

And believe me, getting hit with a bullet with armour is like taking Mike Tyson head to your chest, fired out of a a cannon. You don't go flying, but it can easily knock you down.

My point wasn't that you can't be knocked back by bullets it was that the shooter is affected by a force of the same magnitude - the recoil. And a bullet exerts a large force on a very small area, thus if you're not wearing any bullet protection the bullet will most likely exit the body, taking a great deal of it's momentum with it. Wearing a bulletproof vest spreads that force over a much larger area, reducing the risk of a fatal wound as well ass making it more likely for the one beeing shot keels over backwards.

What I was mostlythinking of however is the old wild west style of getting shot, where you're thrown ten feet backwards through a window. Any such scenario would result in the shooter flat on his ass at least 20 feet away, (as the handgun does a much better job of transferring the kinetic energy to the body, than the bullet, wich will most likely cause an exit wound, thus transfer much less energy as a large part simply makes a neat hole through the body.

I will NEVER understand where the "bad toothed Brit" stereotype comes from. Just because Prince Charles is an imbred doesn't mean we all are.
And tbh, i've seen FAR more mouth horror stories in your Wal-mart pictorial gems than I have in dentists here... oh yeah... free health care... ouch.

Oh, and the American view that British people know anything about the teeth stereotype.

Seriously, when you go to Britain, say that to someone. They will not have a clue what you're talking about.
Who ever said I was American mind you?

And eh, seems as a pretty widespread stereotype, it's even a trope [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BritishTeeth].

Right,thanks everyone for clearing this gun-shot thing up for me.I unfortunatly have never been near a real gun.have done some practice with bb-guns and those arn't exacly as loud as a real gun.

on topic:DNA can be scanned instandly and give the identity of who it is.
In reality,It can take up weeks before its done.

That shotguns can only hit targets less then ten feet away, STOP GETTING YOUR FACTS FROM COD.
I've never understood why people think that shotguns have such short range. If you think about it for 20 seconds, even if you've never seen a real shotgun, you can conclude that a bullet wouldn't be going fast enough to turn a torso to mist for a few feet and then fall to the ground. That would mean that the bullet magically negated its own momentum.

I always thought that it was just a stereotype, until I was at an airport in heathrow and saw a ridiculous amount of british people with bad teeth.

Not that I care, seeing as I have shitty teeth.

Of course, this would make actual warfare hilarious.

That tulips, windmills and agrarian society are typically Dutch. Tulips are from Turkey, windmills are from everywhere (but the Dutch did have a lot of them, that is true) and the Republic of the Seven United Provinces was, argueably, the first urbane society of the modern period. Excluding, only, the Italian City-states.

That unicorns arent badass.


That is such a bold faced lie, there is nothing more badass than a pink unicorn disemboweling an orc with its front hooves and impaling the corrupt politician while at the same time trampling the armies of mordor/any evil guys into a pool of blood and dust all the while giving children tasty candied treats and farting rainbows and having *insert favorite hero* riding said unicorn in full battle regalia with the sword of *insert awesome name* as a scantily clad women rides ares around this figurative god.

Eat your heart out internet.

I can't remember what website it was on, but they did a study that showed Britain actually have the best teeth. It had something to do with banishing myths, like the French being cowards too.
