question: What happens to a bullet after you shoot it straight up into the sky?
comment: no, bullets leave the barrel of a rifle over 2000 feet per second, objects fall at their terminal velocity, the average terminal velocity of a bullet is ~300 feet per second. Terminal velocity is the highest velocity attainable by an object as it falls Falling bullets might not kill, however if there is any angle to it the horizontal factor might surely be enough to kill, don't do it.
