    It just did exactly what they were trying for it to do. It's the yesyesyes part that they're failing first?

    Maybe the no part is him not answering his concerned wife? A moron and asshole.

    I think the bullet might have gone somewhere they didn’t intend for it to go. It looks to me like they were aiming for the soldering iron hub for some reason.

    I think it was a blank tbh, no bullet hole anywhere and not much recoil (or possibly even just a primer)

    Blanks still fuck up anything close though

    Which is why I'm saying it may even be just a primer since nothing really got damaged much

    Bullets get their velocity from being pressured out of a barrel. A bullet going off without a barrel will normally be non-lethal

    Not only that, the brass casing isn’t strong enough to contain the pressure of the gasses without the barrel to contain it. The brass casing is also much lighter than the projectile, so the projectile really doesn’t go anywhere while the casing blows out and can go flying (although no where as fast as a bullet fired from a gun).

    Did I just watch a guy fire a bullet with a solder sucker?

    Automatic center punch, also used sometimes by cops to break a car window. Used to mark and punch center holes into steel to start drilling from correct spot and not have the drill bit wander. It's also adjustable, he screws it towards the end to increase force.

    Should probably stick to phone repair and avoid accidental/intentional applied chemistry.

    Center punch needs a new spring. Hope this helps.

    No its a casing with a primer. Even less than a blank.
