    fun fact, human skin has this weird property of being incredibly, soft. So more than likely it would expend all of its energy moving your skin around, and then just bounce off leaving a pretty bad bruise or something.

    It’d fuck you up if it hit you in the eye though, for example.

        i could see it going either way, depending on where it hits, and how far away it was. Projectile physics is weird, and impact physics are even weirder.

          yeah I got it from a pump action bb rifle, into the meaty part of the bicep. Of all my siblings, my youngest brother seemed to be the most willing to maim and torture us for his own entertainment.
