Why you can’t shoot a gun underwater

A physicist pulled the trigger of a gun on himself and lived to tell about it - all in the name of TV.

Andreas Wahl wanted to see what happens when a gun is shot off underwater and used himself as the test subject.

Although the gun worked just like it would on the surface, the bullet sank before hitting the halfway point due to the intense resistance in the water.
