Merry Christmas All As many are celebrating today my family would have been mourning by now. To God be the Glory.

I was with my Parents today at Enugu gisting and wishing them a pleasant holiday, mum was on the bed licking Orange, Dad was on the cushion sitting down instead of his lying position on the bed, as normally lies down more than sitting cos of his sight.

Hmm, who say God no dey Na lie, infact 4 six years I went to church today cos pressure from kids much.

Nxt we heard was a gun shot and like speed of light, pierced thru the roof and then ceiling on top of Dad bed, if he was there, we might be visiting the morgue today.

Nigeria is a junk, why Gun Shots on a Christmas Day, why Gun shots at all. Please guys identify for me this Bullet.

Help2020:

Nawaoh thank God for his life o..Did the bullet penetrate the bed like it did the roof of the house?

micki1:

Thank God no one was there. I had a similar experience in 2006. I was sitting on the rug I our living room with my brother and a family friend sitting on chairs. We heard a loud bang through the ceiling with fine particles of the ceiling flying around me. I jumped away on hearing the noise. I came back and saw the hole through the ceiling and realized it pierced through the roof as well. We seached everywhere if there was a bullet but didn't find any. It was days later when I was doing thorough clean up that I saw the bullet. We showed it to a police officer and he said it was police bullet. The hole on the ceiling and roof was directly above my head where I sat. By the way, we never heard any gun shot except the bang through the roof. Na God dey save us o!

Hahaha not like beds dat were killed and thrown for crowd attraction,this heard the gun shot and speedily bullet scattered the roof and pierced the ceiling,we are not a ministry or MOFO like u dat believes any gibberish they see. Mofo get brain.

All hotels hosting big politicians around my hood claim ignorance.

My popsi is 86years, wouldn't have survived d bullet MOFO.

I dont think that guy was wrong to quote you, But if we take a good look at the trajectory, its quite a strange one, bullet falling from the sky would be pulled down by the force of gravity, if you did physics =10g.Thats the force attributed to a free falling body.So the Only way a bullet will fall from the sky unto your roof is if it has been fired upwards. Now I find it hard to believe that that said bullet will have the force to pierce your roof, ceiling at same time if its free falling, however if its traveling at its fired velocity its direction of travel will be Horizontal. This in terms will not fall down into ur house, it will jus pass fru.So as you see,its a tough one to call.

dingbang:
Please i need to understand the physics of this happenstance.

So the shooter aims the gun facing the sky and shoots the gun right? The bullet goes upward with a force then makes a u-turn and comes down with force too, enough to pierce a roof?..


Wow. I need more explanations.

The OP is one ignorant person that needs loads of attention, look at one of his Super story, come back and tell me if this OP is OK at all read this

Check my writeup on the matter bros leave that matter

Czario:


Have you heard of acceleration due to gravity..? A projectile traveling at 10m/s is enough to kill someone.

Na wao

I am a science student like you but i have witness something like this before too so i dont doubt the writer.
In our case we didnt hear a gunshot. We sat in the sitting room and heard the impact of a metal on the tile. It pierce through the zinc, the ceiling and hit the tiled floor with so much force that it gave the tiles a mark.

Till now all of us in the house and the visitor with us does not understand what and how it happened.

In Naija difficult to explain and believe stories happen everytime

Massiveglory:


Funny stunt. No video of the bullet Falling on your father's bed. Bullet can't just fall naturally like that.
It is an arranged stunt.

I simple Google search will cure your disbelieve. How thick is a roofing sheet and ceiling that a bullet with pointed mouth heavily falling under gravity can't penetrate?

The physics is that if you aim a gun less than 85 degree to the horizontal that bullet will have a curve range. And all it's travel path is fatal to any obstruction. Our security guys and some guys who shoot guns just believe that if you raise a gun up it is safe to shoot. It must be at least 85 to 89 degree. That is the only way that bullet can attain zero acceleration at its maximum altitude and return to earth as drop object with less fatal effect.
If you understand physics my explanation will not be a problem to you.

Wow. I need more explanations.

limcar:
at free fall?

thinkmoney:

Those are falling bullets. Those guns that they shoot into the air is very dangerous. The bullets surely fall back down and if it ever hit humans it is most time on the head

A free falling bearing and a bullet have same gravity when they fall, if you did Physics in your JSS1 you would have know this, Stop being ignorant, science is not like religion that you have to have faith, I have given you a diagram if you have any iota of dignity you will stop and look at the next post to draw traffic!
