    Right so its the water that causes it to break because of the surface tension of the water.

    Sounds like you are arguing against my phrasing while agreeing with what i understand. Im confused why we seem to be in a disagreement.

    Maybe you can school my dumb ass though, can you eli5 what would need to happen for you to say it was the water that does the work on stopping bullets?

    I wonder relatively what speed those shells would have to hit the water yo behave like bullets and shatter… You wanna revive myth busters and we can find out? Maybe in honor of Grant on his birthday or something would be cool.

    We just need a lot of money, some military connections and a way to put the team back together for it

    It is the water breaking it. The water doesnt compress so the water doesnt absorb enough of the kinetic energy fast enough so the bullet fractures. As i understand it anyway. The 50cal is travelling a lot faster so a lot more force is applied on the bigger rounds.

    Later on they did a dynamite fishing one and we learned being in water when a large enough shockwave hits is VERY bad for internal organs of squishy creatures in it

    Ive told people this many times, we need to create more room for failure. From school, to jobs, to building businesses, to loans, to health.

    If we can try something because if we fail we can try something else, we would find a hell of a lot more to care about in this world.

    And the most important thing we would care more about is ourselves









  • Ya know how therea books of short stories by authors or a collection of authors?

    You should totally do that with the numerous multimonth ADHD hperfixation learning binges you have gone on.

    But just write like just write out from memory as if it was a short story.

    Could collect from others like yourself and create anthologies of remembered knowledge. Like reviving or recreating an oral history like many people did in times of old
