1) What does it feel like to get shot?

2)How does a shot kill you? I know it puts a hole in you but how actually does it kill you? Does the bullet explode in your body?

i hope i never find out...

it kills you because it rips and tears your insides up and with great force...and you pretty much need those organs to live

If you get shot....just hope you are close to my hospital. We can literally put you back together.

Major Trauma Hospital FTW!!!!

Example would be these buddies messing around with a 12 gauge shotgun, they were drunk and the one guy pointed it at the other and pulled the trigger when it was loaded with 00 buck shot. Hit him center mass from about 10 feet away, somehow it missed his heart. But it took out parts of his liver, stomach, aorta, small and large intestines, both kidneys etc. The first(of many) surgery took 10 hours and required 53 units of blood or fresh frozen plasma but he lived.

True story.

Get shot where? I don't think you feel much if you get shot in the head.

I can honestly not answer this question. When people go to shoot me I just have to put my hand up and say "NO!". The bullets stop about 6 inches in front of me and I can pluck them from the air, scare the piss out of the people shooting me. Then I just jump into their bodies and explode them from the inside out. Pretty cool stuff I can do :D

First depends on what is hitting you.

a .22 feels like fire in a way. I got shot in the hand and it didn't come out the back. Once my friends? dug it out, I stopped bleeding so much. It didn't stop me at all...I had to beat one down to work on my hand. It was a real accident, they set up a fire trap in the backyard and I walked into it from outside the house. We were 7th graders at the time.

The bullet keeps the wound open. The bullet can also cause a severe system shutdown if it hits the hit organ/artery.

I'm pretty sure it sucks...

Pain like you got winded, beat the crap out of and drunk all in one....that's my guess.

If you die instantly from a bullet, you will not hear the shot that kills you as sound is slower than the bullet. If you hear a gunshot you have survived :)

I was shot thru the finger last year by a .125" Framing nail (ringed, not ardox) and it didnt feel like anything. I was standing there, felt a blast of air when someone shot a nailgun into a piece of wood. I had no idea that the nail had bounced up and gone into my finger until one of them ran over to me. It was the weirdest sensation looking down and seeing a nail going in one side and out the other... yet not feeling any pain whatsoever.

I don't know if it's online, but they often simulate the damage a bullet does by firing a round into a block of gelatin. The result is a cylinder shaped wound that is roughly 2-3 inches in radius or 4-6 in diameter. Depending on the entrance of the projectile and the muzzle velocity, your chances of surviving vary greatly.

Btw....if you get shot, it hurts.

I don't respond to silly answers, but I do to serious questions.

I have not been shot but know someone who was by a 22 cal pistol in the abdomen. He was ok after that. He said he didn't feel much at all, but knew what had happened.

A shot can kill you based upon where the bullet hits. The entrance hole is small but it can demolish internal organs and blood vessels as the impact increases in size and emplodes as it travels through the body. Imagine dropping a rock in a bucket of water. The impact is slight on the surface, but the disruption of the water is great and creates a "ripple effect".
