They had a clip of a soldier crouching down and running away from the camera while some bullets hit the ground behind him. Then what looks like 2 slow moving bullets pass right by the camera, you can even hear one hum as it passes...

They were a little big looking but there was no real perspective in the shot...

Has anybody else seen that clip?

Yup! I just saw the same video clip.

What the hell are you watching MSNBC and not FOX?!

There is one reason to watch MSNBC - I think her name is Norah O'Donnell. [img]http://a799.ms.akamai.net/3/799/388/a8895e1bedc935/www.msnbc.com/news/990892.jpg[/img]

A nice Irish lass, if this is the same one I'm dreaming of, the pic does not do her justice at all. I have to find a better one.

Sorry, Laurie (Dhue), I'm dumping you for a brunette. [:D]

Edited to add pics - let's try this one:

I've seen .308 bullets in flight through a spotting scope as close as 200yds if the light was just right. I see pistol bullets routinely with the naked eye, particularly cast lead .38s, .44s, and .45s when the light is 90 degrees to the bullet path and low in the sky.

I'm not talking vortexes here either, I mean I can see the bullet itself. None of my shooting buddies seem to be able to pick them up, but my vision is 20/5 in the left eye and 20/10 in the right eye, I don't know if that makes any difference. Anybody else see them?

I still love Laurie, but the fat girl inside her is starting to bust out! I do love those big-boned scandanavian blondes, my ideal would be Kristy Swanson. But, what UZI? I missed something. Tell me about the UZI!

Cool! What was the related story, or wuz she just hangin' with y'all havin' fun?

I believe this was a story she did at the Gunsite machine gun training facility. It was before she left PMSNBC for Foxnews. Notice her finger is OFF the trigger! What a woman!

I agree. Laurie is fine, and those lips, those LIPS!. But the 27-yr-old Irish maiden with the boomerang eyebrows and the cheerleader's bod has got me mesmerized. Too bad she's engaged, she's gonna miss out on me! [<]:)]

That looks like the same "hot chick" that got a ride in a Tomcat.

700PSS,
I also see the bullets enroute. I first experienced this at a young age at handgun silhouette competitions. Its pretty cool seeing the full trajectory path of the bullet in flight especially when being shot at the real long distances. I can also see centerfire rifle bullets when they get out there past 100 yards and not real high velocity (below 3000 fps). I know other people that have this ability also, but it does not seem that they can see them as clearly or on a routine basis like I can. I also do not know if your vision has anything to do with it. I do have 20/5 vision in both eyes.

Well I'm glad I'm not as crazy as all my shooting buddies seem to think I am!

Chuck Yeager mentioned in his biography that he can see bullets in flight.

You're right DoubleFeed, I've read that book about a dozen times and I'd forgotten all about that.

Only bullets I can see in flight are the ones from an Aguila Colibri .22 cartridge, lil' suckers only going 375fps. 20/20 vision

I saw semi-automatic 9mm gunfire erupting out of my P226 before.

Watching someone else firing it, not me.

I like Laurie Dhue's bullets...

I watched my .380 bullets from my pistol one day. I was shooting into a dark canyon and the sun was behind me and lit up the bullets as I fired them... I could watch them as they traveled to the rock I was aiming at and splattered. I thought it was cool.

Not only can I see bullets. But I can knock
em down with a set of pre-ban wonder woman
bracelets my wife snatched up at a garage sale.

I can see my .45s under those conditions.

Call me crazy, but I just keep my eye on the orange of the bullseye. I figure if there's any place I'll see the bullets or its path, it'll no doubt be there.

I have seen 9 mm bullets while using binoculars and standing behind and to the side of the guy who was shooting them.

Obviously, they were blurred and very fast, but I could see them. My buddy and I changed places, and he could see them too. Amazing.
