[Andy]

I guessed five and was wrong.

I guessed 4 but i only have my dog here to vouch for my guess.

 

[In The Black]

14?

 

[deckerhead]

Wow ?........would of guess it would go thru all 10 balloons.....

 

[silverfoxdj]

4 I cheated..but did not look at this vid..

 

[NAA]

If someone is wielding a .44 Mag ala Dirty Harry make sure there's 3 or 4 fat guys standing in front of you......

NAA.

I guessed 3. Waters a betch to go through and he was using hollow points so it makes sense. Pretty neat the slow mo where ya see the bullet slingshot out and back into the balloon the far side.

you can see the bullet flies too low to hit more balloons. the shooter needs to aim higher.

I guessed 4 as well. I just figured 2 feet of water, so roughly 4 balloons. Got lucky

I've been watching enough water jug tests on YouTube lately I guessed correctly.

 

[dead meat]

Ya water is a tough. Even the 50BMG doesn't go far in water.

 

[BlackBrant]

I guessed 3 myself ,kinda close.After watching that episode of Mythbusters(shooting in water) ,and the fact water cannot be compressed ,makes sense.

Cool video and a cool show !

The 4th literally catches the bullet

Bullet vs water. Water wins.

What? He counts to 4 and pulls the bullet out of the fourth ballon

The 1st balloon was blown off so wasn't counted.
