bullets have a bad habit of returning if you hit something hard enough

Even still thats a huge distance it tavelled, i recon they could do tht all day and just ricochet into the desert.

btw if you look carefully you can see the bullet bounce of the ground  10 feet infront of him before hitting him.

o.O Daamn!I once got a airgun (Not soft) ricochet in my head... That's bad enough...
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

I found some humour in it.  Only after the bullet popped the guy, and the old guy to the rear says "Oh Willy".  Haha.

You can clearly see it hit the ground about 5-10 feet in front of where he is sitting, then bounce up and hit him in the side of the head...

The ground is what slowed it down.

I always see these videos of "stupid people", like that guy who tried to drink flaming sambuca and got it over his face, or the kids that keep knocking themselves out jumping off really high cliffs into some water, or the kid that blew off his hand with a dry ice bomb.

And every time, the people in the video are American.

I wont say anymore.

sadly theres 8 of them and not one of them was smart enough to realize this... i bet the bullet is in the ground just in front of the stand where the dust cloud is..what hit him was something off the ground like a rock or something i bet.. it looked to be sand the on and sand wouldnt change the trajectory of the bullet that much.

might not be sand but soft pact with rock.

Man that could have been nasty, but the ground definately slowed it down. I'm still trying to work out how it happened lol, it seems impossible but obviously isn't.

Wow! You guys are missing the amazing part here. The size of that returning shard, compared to the distance it had to travel, the odds of that happening are so slim, that to be caught on camera is amazing.

True, but the guys was very lucky. It could have turned out very bad.
