I'm not an artillery guy but Artillery doesn't work that way either several people are killed by an exploding missile or several people get killed by shrapnel (pieces of a round that explodes in the air and rains down). The idea of a shell hitting one individual is not how it works.

I get it but the idea of a shell hitting one person is ridiculous especially an artillery shell.

That's like thinking the purpose of a machine gun is to kill individual soliders it too is an area suppression weapon.

We know this is a video for...science... :mjgrin:
It's a ton of youtube that at least has a vailid opinion there's a whole section of "pew science" guntube videos.

I mean who even has access to an howitzer to even make a video like this?

I get it content is content and dudes want Plat threads but to anyone who's been in the Army knows.... I mean even the amount of space needed for a range; If you're twenty miles away shyt sounds like thunder up close it's ear shatteringly loud.

But as you said science.
