How does it feel to get shot with a bullet?

Question

I heard that it feels like getting burned with a hot piece of metal, but also heard it feels like getting hit with a hammer. I just want a straight answer.

Answer 1

It will depend on where you are hit and what kind of bullet hits you.  I was shot in the leg but it was a relatively minor flesh would.  When the bullet hit, it felt like I had been slapped on the leg with a limb.  Then very shortly it began to burn like heck followed shortly by a throbbing pain.  It was an uncomfortable experience.

Answer 2

There is no cut and dry answer, it depends where your hit. I have seen people cut there thumb off and just look at it in shock. The body naturally reacts with Dopamine which is a precursor of adrenaline. when this kicks in it removes some of the pain.

I knew a guy who got shot in the elbow with a .380 pistol. it went through hit coat and lodged just beneath the skin where he squished it out by hand. He thought he had hit his elbow against a brick wall till he saw the blood.

Hit with a rifle you would probably drop or be knocked over as if hit by a bat. It's a huge energy dump.

Answer 3

Its not something you want to experience.* Been there done that.*

Answer 4

it feels like someone beamed you with a hardball and a charlie horse at the same time. "the impact was so hard that it made me cough up blood." then you feel a burning sensation and then you start to hyperventilate and everything goes in slow motion and then you wake up in the hospital.

i got shot in the back on my left shoulder blade by a 9mm. i don't think i want to experience it again. happened at a park in sacramento ca. two gangs were warring and i got caught in the middle of it.

Answer 5

I'm not sure its like both, Getting hit in the hammer when its comming threw your flesh and when its in you its like getting burnt.
