all those stray bullets come back down and land somewhere, wonder how many people end up shot and killed.

None, unfortunately. They're firing harmless blanks/flash bang rounds.

That is what I thought, but that white building looks like it has bullet holes.

They will do some damage at point blank range (youtube.com), whereas buckshot would do much more damage (youtu.be) even from some distance away.

I doubt that many, if any at all, can falling bullets even kill you? Wouldn't air resistance deaccelerate the bullet enough for it to be non-lethal? I remember watching an episode where some guys tested if a falling bullet could kill you, and the chances were rather low unless you were really unlucky.

Yeah , they fall at terminal velocity not muzzle velocity . That said , this is still retarded as shit .

Only if they're fired straight up, otherwise they will still have some velocity from the shot.

Would hurt like a bitch, though.

Myth busters.

It doesn't.

No different than dropping a coin off of a building.

I've read that they can knock a person out, but will be going at very subsonic velocities so not very lethal.

People have been killed this way.

I remember reading a study many years ago that said the same thing.
