MaDuce Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 How about sharing some false rumors you are aware of that most people seam to believe. Gun related rumors are fine, but let's skip political dynamics (IE, "gun control works", etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaDuce Posted September 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 * John Delorean went to prison........ He was tried for involvement in drug trafficking and acquitted.* Brandon Lee was killed by a blank....... There may be partial truth to this but he WAS killed by a real bullet. The "partial truth" is that it is suspected (but may never be confirmed) that the bullet from a dummy round separated from the case in the chamber and was later propelled by a blank.* Columbus' argument over the shape of the earth....... The Catholic church was well aware of the shape (and size) of the earth in the time of Columbus. Not only that but the argument he DID have with Church authorities (size of the earth) he was wrong about and they were right about. The Spanish government sent him on his voyage, hoping he might run in to some unknown land (which he obviously did) because he was the only person they could find who was dumb and crazy enough to venture that far west with 15th century marine technology.* The Automobile was invented by Henry Ford, Karl Benz, etc. ....... The invention of Automobiles (defined as self-propelled land vehicles) is commonly credited to a few people dating from the late 1800s to the 1600s. But these all miss the mark by a long shot. The earliest known automobile was an experimental vehicle by Heron of Alexandria, who shared his lifetime with Jesus and is perhaps best known today for building automatic temple doors. GTG.

planeflyer21 Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 There was that muscle-head retard actor that killed himself on set back in the 1980s, playing Russian Roulette with a .44Mag and blanks.Pushed the cardboard wad into the middle of his head a several hundred feet per second.Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaDuce Posted September 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 There's no bullet in a dummy round... At least back then some of the Hollywood dummy rounds had bullets in them but no powder. They are made to look like a live round for cinematic effect. Not to be confused with blanks, these are typically shown in magazines, belts or being loaded in to a gun. They don't go bang. I am not up to date on Hollywood movie effects but they may have stopped doing that and started using some solid replica after what happened. I'd be surprised if they didn't.
