Guys, we might need to rethink that gun we were going to give to Fishbowlhead as a gift.
Ha. Honestly though this was a failure on every level. Even a basic visual check would of told Baldwin, or anyone, that it had rounds with bullets in the gun.
As a side note, I have always wondered - when a bullet is fired into the air, can it kill someone on the way down? Maybe it doesn't get enough velocity on the fall back down.
.
Pretty sure people have been injured or killed in this way. At least that it's been reported to avoid doing this.
If a bullet maintains its ballistic trajectory fired at an angle, then yes, but if a bullet is fired upward, then no because it's falling, not on a ballistic trajectory.
Righty oh, well its a lot less stupid than just straight up shooting someone isn’t it, if your in the middle of nowhere you can pretty safely fire a gun off into the distance.

Can you? You can see the entire distance a bullet can travel and know you'll not hit anything? No you absolutely cannot do that.
Weeeellllll, you can see for about 3 miles on a clear day and the effective range of a 9mm pistol is probably a mile tops, so yes you could, depending on the weapon, conditions and environment
I'm not saying you should do it. Why would you? But, for example, snipers are trained to do literally this; to know exactly where a bullet will end up at distances of up to a couple of miles (I think the record is just over 2 miles) just by using their human eyes.
