Only when indoors? I gave away the old H&R 929 revolver which had been my grandfather痴 because I couldn稚 shoot it. 2 shots would leave me with intense pain. Yet why do you not notice the sound of 8 rounds when hunting, at least until after the fact?

Part of the Tachypsychia effect when we are under an adrenaline dump is not hearing gunshots, or hearing them very muted, called auditory exclusion and also a type of "tunnel vision" can occur where you only see things right in front of you and not off to the side as you normally would. This can occur when you are pulling the trigger or are on the wrong end of the muzzle.

And firing the gun from the hip and pushing forward dduring the firing action, with deadly accuracy....

That extra push add to the muzzle velocity. Not to mention accuracy.

Same with "gangsta" style, hold it sideways and throw it at the target. I hope if anyone is shooting at me they use that method!

Yeah, me too. If some Son.... if shooting at me, I want all the "breaks" I can get. :shocked:

Recent movies have become almost unwatchable for me, with all the crazy, loud unnecessary NOISE! And if you turn it down, you can`t understand the dialogue. Guy gets punched in the face (with little effect) but it sounds like an explosion of some sort! AMAZING what you can convince the masses is desireable. Anything that can stir the senses in brain dead people I guess.

Or documentaries with music playing while the narrator is talking. David Attenborough has several that are unwatchable due to that, one can't even hear him talking at times. I don't watch movies so I don't know if producers are doing that there also.

I remember when Hill Street Blues was on. I was a great fan, but a friend commented on the wild, camera work as if shooting material as it happens in real life, that bothered him. My lady friend watches all kinds of the latest left flicks series and I notice that I can't watch them on account of all this WILD camera work. Like trying to watch it in fast forward!

For me that is related to hearing loss. I listen to NPR news sometimes, and turn it off when they talk to somebody from another country. I would like to hear what they say, but attempts are fruitless.

"I know what you're thinking -- `Did he fire six shots or only five?' Well, to tell you the truth, in all the excitement, I kind of lost track myself. ... "

But back to 'Popular mythconceptions '.

'John Wayne was a good guy.'



Truth is, he kinda wasn't.
