Bah, nitpicking I say!

I didn't mean breaking the sound barrier, I meant shockwave, but my brain briefly exploded at that moment. I'm complaining about the woman and her "chest pains" which were probably brought on by herself and an excuse to sue the gun-dropper.

Well, if she had pre-existing heart conditions ,and if she was to be startled I guese that it is possible for it to make her heart rate jump sky high, which could cause chest pain. For the very same reason you don't sneak up on people who have had pacemakers put in and scream "BOO!"

U-104... :rotfl: :rotfl: Brilliant, just brilliant.

I have a thought, and a question, do air rifle pellets break the sound barrier as well? :hmm:

That's cool, I was just wondering. Had a near miss with a pellet and heard the noise it made as it went past at speed, was a long time ago, but I recall it sounded a little like fabric being torn but quietly.
