- THE SCIENCE is back on Shoddycast! I’m doing something I’ve wanted to do for ages, which is SCIENCE on movies and TV shows. Like I’ve REALLY wanted to do it. And so I just stopped, like, not doing it and decided to do it. My first one is on the SUPER DUPER RELEVANT 2008 James McCavoy film Wanted about curving bullets. I know, the Mythbusters already did it, but they didn’t PROVE it with math. SO I DECIDED TO DO IT. YOU’RE WELCOME, AMERICA.
(Also before you ask yes I’m still doing videos on Game Theorists.)

Doh, my editor got Jolie's head number wrong at 9:26. TANYA, WHAT ARE YOU DOING. JK, I proofed this video like ten times and missed it myself. The math is right, I did it off of 0.1497, not .2397. If you saw the spreadsheet I give to my editor as a "guide" you'd be more forgiving of her error. Anyway, NICE CATCH, EAGLE-EYED BUTTHOLES.
At the topic of editing... Every footage of irl Austin is disappointing... Why? He doesn't move like his 2D Avatar in the videos. 😋❤ None the less great work.👍💗
Might be interesting to look into gyrojet bullets. You joked about tiny rockets on the bullet? It's been done my guy
Damn, too slow :-D
Hey Austin you should really look up one of drpas project project exact O i won't Spoil it
You mentioned rocket bullets at the very end as a joke, but "rocket" bullets actually exist. Gyrojet rounds propel themselves like actual rockets, by using fuel. Could a Gyrojet round be designed to curve?

"You'd need to strap tiny rockets onto it!"
I'm just gonna say one thing here: Gyrojet *mic drop*
He didn't say that they don't exist, he just said that they would be needed to get the bullet to go in a circle.
It doesn't just need to be rocket-propelled, it needs a full on set of maneuvering thrusters, stabilizers, and an onboard computer for the sheer number of calculations needed to keep this thing in flight ... I'm honestly not sure if your job would be harder or easier with the spin present or not.
I'm also confused as to where the heck the fuel would go. This is far from a single, simple rocket, and I honestly don't see where the tanks could fit. I guess you could spring for a vectored thrust system, but that just couldn't steer an object like the bullets displayed.
I think a steering system similar to the ablative asymmetrical design of Russian Hypersonic rockets might be a better bet, especially given the sheer velocity of a bullet ... but we're still talking about miniaturizing a freaking cruise missile. And somehow reinforcing it with bull**** material so it's strong enough to stay in one piece performing maneuvers that would warp the strongest of metals.
I'm curios what happening if you eliminate gyroscopic efect?
@@mmmSS82 You mean the spin? You get a highly inaccurate musket ball. If you’re talking a tank gun, mortar, or light artillery piece, you can get away with it, which is why such weapons can be smooth ore.
Smart pistol. The pilot's on-board computer calculates trajectory by using already present data on the surrounding enviornment that is then uploaded to each bullet immediately as it's fired. Only a very simple computer is needed at that point to adjust the nuzzles of the bullet and correct it's trajectory.
Oof, movies? This opens up a whole new category of SCIENCE
Yeah! He's gonna be the next Game/Film Theorist exept not meant for kids.
Hell yeah!
Yeah, like the science of the infinity snap ;)
You mean the same thing that "because science" already do?
tbh it was also a video game (also called wanted) with the exact same bullet curving
actually getting a firearms guy to let you know how stuff works??? already better than 97% of anyone who has ever talked about firearms in media.
As a firearms guy, I also appreciate this.
Wouldn't matter.. it's still simple path physics.
@@PhrontDoor it's still nice that he put the effort into understanding the specifics ie using 45 ACP because that round is used in handguns whereas he could have blabbed on using 303 or .22 if he really wanted, the physics would still be valid but it wouldn't be as accurate a comparison and gun nuts are nuts for details.
@@PhrontDoor actually mattering on the gun Type, manufacturer, and bullet type you can get slightly different results every time because different bullets can gain more range then others if in specific guns
@@PhrontDoor Could you enlighten us poor ignorant wretches, and explain in small words exactly what "path physics" actually is? I did a quick search and didn't find anything on it.
From watching this video, all I got was that it's still impossible to curve a bullet (which I already knew) and I saw a bunch of numbers

'You will never *EVER* be able to curve a bullets'
*Some point in the future with a random person* Hold my beer
How about no?
Gyrojet. Its already possible. That "strap rockets to it) idea. Yeah......abou that
This is pretty awesome. I always feel cheated by Mythbusters because they only go part of the way.
I would add just one thing. What if the bullet was textured and or the bullet wasn't made of lead?
Taofledermaus does videos showing shotgun slugs, many of which are made of other materials like steel or even tungsten.
A harder material could handle more spin... But also, more spin could also slow the bullet somewhat, increasing the curve.. Further, a textured surface could potentially enhance the spin drift, ie golf ball dimples.
Given that the show uses custom weaponry, custom rifling and custom ammo isn't entirely out of the question.
I agree that the premise of that movie was rather ridiculous, but it was also kind of fun. Probably more because of miss jolie... But fun nonetheless.
I love explanations like for the weird arbitrary rules that writers come up with. See writers, this is the easy way to write off something impossible like that!
exactly also what if the gunpowder inside it was a different formula or something? im curious what kind of modifications it would take to the bullet to get it to curve
"It'd have to be a rocket! It's impossible!" May I introduce you to... the Gyrojet?
EXACTO ammunition?
Anyone?
Yeah, the Gyrojet corkscrews and misses, all on its own.
Hell yeah!
Chlorophite Bullets, anyone?
Ouch, nope I'm out.
I can curve a bullet, by shooting the gun.
Gravity affects the bullet making it curve downward over time
Also... atmospheric changes(wind/air density), magnets, spacial distortion, energy... pretty much anything can make a bullet have a curving path with the right application
And the coriolis effect which give the impression of curving because of the variable tangential speeds of the Earth at different latitutes
The two guys above me ruined it

Austin. We need a shirt that says "I proved it with math!"
This shirt should be handed out after college math finals. Or at least to math majors.
Along with a shirt that has the jar of logic pardox Austins
Well, except he failed to prove it. His simple math, assumed a perfectly uniform object spinning around a fixed axis and included no BC variable. Long range shooters, myself included, have missed long range shots in 0 value wind and hit downrange, behind the target. Some have reported looped 'swirl'(the visual atmospheric disturbance of the bullet) on extreme long range shots. The problem is that bullets are not perfectly uniform and they yaw on their longitudinal axis. This combination of a wobbling axis and non-uniform mass, causes it to behave in a more complex way, than his simple math accounts.
@@springbloom5940 Excuse my ignorance, but then, wouldn't the projectile just curve downwards due to gravity? I mean, shouldn't spinning and being symmetrical stabilize it enough not to move sideways?
@@DamonDraven no. A bullet's center of mass is behind its geometrical center, so if anything gravity is pulling its ass downwards, not its tip. Since it moves at supersonic speeds it is safe to assume that its dynamics, aside from the overall ballistic-ish curve, are dictated almost solely by aerodynamics. You're right that its symmetry and rotation means that more is required to change the direction it is pointing, leading to higher overall stability. But a bullet will always tumble a bit, because when it loses forward velocity(especially when it goes subsonic), the axis of rotation will change since there is less aerodynamic pressure correcting it, leading to oscillation. At that point it can start drifting pretty significantly over longer distances. I recommend checking out some videos by a youtuber called taofledermouse, who does experiments with various projectiles shot out from a shotgun, filmed in slow motion. You can really see this wobbling effect and how it affects the trajectory of the projectiles, even over short distances since the speed is subsonic.
Rest in peace Grant... Rest in peace...
That was slightly scary to read
U don’t have to say that with every video I know?
Rocket-propelled bullets are an actual thing though....
So it is possible
Except that they don't fire reliably and you can't really estimate the curve and they just accelerate the bullet forward b/c of spin and whatnot
True...
But was any actual science put into those old timey bullets, I think they were all poorly made with only the intention of selling... I'm saying what if we made them again... but differently
I think we could make it work but it would be way easier to just take on step to the side for a straight line of sight
But their not bullets their basically small rockets with no splode
The SCIENCE! of the gauss rifle from Fallout!
Artilleryman here. Thank you for briefly discussing humidity and the earth’s rotation. Over long distances we have to account for those!
That science already exists using electromagnets.
Railguns and coilguns (one of those is a gauss weapon) already exist. The US Navy has a RG, and particle accelerators use the same mechanics as CGs.
Railguns were made obsolete during Tesla's lifetime. That's all I can say. Do enough research and you'll find out what I'm talking about.

Well, it's not nearly as bad if he waits until after the first minute to swear. Though you're right, MatPat is one of the bigger experts on youtube analytics, Austin would probably follow his advice and just cut it out as a whole.

SCIENCE! On shoddy again?! It must be christmas! But there wasn’t enough NO GOD DAMN SENSing!
If you added some sort of microscopic thruster to the side of each bullet that triggers with ease in and eases out to make it look cooler, you could make it look like it was curving.
Dear Austin, I know that you have moved away from the fallout franchise, but I have been curious about how the Gamma Gun works for quite some time. If there even is an explanation, I figured you could figure it out.
Watching any of these videos is like watching a man slowly dive into insanity, because he is.

Guido Mista, who literally curves bullets.
Feelsbadman
The ultimate tensile strength of chromium vanadium steel or osmium/iridium is in the gigapascal range. These compounds should hold up under the stresses of spin drift. So yeah, impossible with lead, but not with a bullet.
Now build a handgun that puts more efort on spining the bullet that making the bullet go foward.
What about just bringing rocket bullets back?
toa scranill gyro jet gang
You would also need a firearm made out of a similar material, since a metal like that wouldn't deform enough from the rifling to force said spin forces upon it. And as acynder1 said, the rifling would have to be incredible for the bullet to spin fast enough to cause said drift. Something like an incremental rifling that gets more and more extreme as the bullet travels through the barrel, but the metal might shear the grooves from the rifling off and plug the barrel. I'd say that this task is impossible for a short-barreled firearm, but not for a gun like a rifle that gives the bullet enough time to generate that spin.
Another thing to keep in mind is those materials have pretty different density compared to lead. So the math would change too. The RPM needed may actually be smaller as a result since you'd have to change the momentum of less mass.
The trade off though is the impact force of said bullet would be less so you'd have to fire it faster to compensate. For the bullets to remain lethal they'd have to go faster which means they'd have to rotate faster in the air to get enough curve action to move them far enough since they are covering much greater distance a faster rate of time.
But how much faster does the bullets have to go and how much does the change in the materials density impact the needed rotation speed for the higher speeds and how much faster does the bullets have to in the first case with the other materials in question. Maybe it's not a big enough change to make it impossible. Maybe could revisit this with using bullets made from a different materiel. :P

What if you had a magnetic bullet and just surrounded the entire flight path to the target in magnets stronger than the ones used for particle accelerators?
It's super inefficient, hauling all that equipment around, and I think the person will move before you set it up, but hey, at least it's theoretically possible!
Micah Philson lmao “hold on, please just stay there, I’m trying to kill all of you”
The magnets with the bullet don't curve the way it flies but it does work with BB www.kjmagnetics.com/blog.asp?p=curve-bullets
Teddy, not if you did your math right. It's entirely possible to do, you just need either a very long track (to give it more time to affect the trajectory) or some of the strongest magnets made (to affect it more strongly over the distance). Either way, you're probably going to have to do a few trials while your target is standing there.
There is a video somewhere on this already..... they used copper, steel and magnetic projectiles. Even using just a air operated projectile accelerator they couldn’t get them to curve.
Thats how the cathode ray tube works it bends the eletron beam
Airsoft weapons using a hop-up system curves "bullets" (or rather plastic BB's) all the time. :)
In normal operation it's used to give the BB backspin while being fired out the barrel, which generates lift as the BB interacts with the air around it. The idea is to adjust the hop-up at a sweet spot where the generated lift offsets the weight of the BB so instead of immediately moving in a downward curve as it exits the barrel om account of gravity, the BB actually "flies" a certain distance, making the BB shoot further and straighter than it would have without the hop-up.
If you then hold an airsoft weapon with hop-up sideways, and crank up the hop-up to give it a desired sideways spin, the BB will curve.
Theoretically, you could achieve the same effect with firearms, provided that you use really old muskets or flintlocks using round balls as ammunition, and you install a heavy duty hop-up system that doesn't cause the ball to jam inside of the barrel.
"Bore of the gun is almost always has a twisted groove" Austin you mean rifling.

You have left out one crucial thing. If you could swing your arm fast enough, as half the bullet is leaving the end of the barrel it could be hit by the end of the barrel therefore causing it to spin and act the same as and arrow but on a much smaller area. The difference would be negligible but it would have still curved
I love your channel and how you explain things. The first time you appeared was in matpats's channel. And I love your humor and a good vocabulary. I hope you could keep on making these videos and keep going.
To be fair you could probably swing your arm as fast as .45 ACP travels 🙄😂
Well, if the dude has superpowers... maybe bullets do too in that universe? lol
I mean, they have superpowers and a magical tapestry that tells you who to shoot. So like, we could just hand wave it and say that supernatural forces alter the trajectory of the bullet. I guess.
Every time you say spin I think of the Spin from Steel Ball Run. Mind if you cover it?
Pizza, mozzarella...
Sick plot twist, they used THE SPIN to curve the bullets
I thought i was the only one XD
Only way you could realistically curve a bullet would be to use a round ball and impart backspin. Then rotate the barrel depending on which way you want it to curve and fire at an angle away from your target and let the spin carry it back to the target. It works with paintball guns, just need to tweek the numbers. Might have to use something besides lead to make the bullet.
Why didn’t I find this when it happened! This was HILARIOUS! Thx for the laughs, and math lesson.
145 grains for a 45 acp? That is an awfuly light bullet for that caliber, 45 acp usually weights around 230 grains

@@yruan I mean you can try but still wont curve because you couldn't get enough rotations per sec.
Something I noticed while you went over the forces of the bullet during the spin drift section, is as follows:
Since for every action there's an equal and opposite one, the rotational force imparted into the bullet would also be imparted into the gun. Say goodbye to your wrists, because that thing is going to torque over like a high power impact wrench set to its max clutch setting. Wooooooooooo!

(Yes there are .50 cal pistols but those are not in 12.7 mm x 99mm their bullets are much shorter)

Long range shooters with high BC bullets have probably all, encountered a curved trajectory at one time or other. I have missed small targets at long range and hit downrage *behind* the target, with no lateral doping. The only way for that to happen is for the trajectory to have arced. His math is very simple and accounts only for a uniform mass on a stable axis, in 2 dimensions; with no variable for gravity, or angular momentum. Bullets dont behave that way, in reality; some people have reported looping swirls on very long range shots. While his simple math is sufficient to prove the obvious impossibility of the scene in question, it is not sufficient to address the core question - 'Can you curve a bullet?'
But yes, the action from the movie is flatly impossible.
Man the internet needs more of these, I’ve watched them all and it just feels so empty now
Omg! I watch you on game theory and I found ur channel and I love it
I'm glad yall are back!
But WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU???
He runs his science show on the game theory
Could you do a video on jet pack joyride. Could you really fly off of recoil. Great video thanks.
OMG Great Idea!
Yooooo!
I mean Newton's 3rd law says probably, would be interesting to see
I know but how much ammo, what Calibre, what gun, problems and most important, how stable would it be.
And you know what? ITS GOD DAMN TERRIFYING.
145 grains is pretty light for .45ACP usual loads are 200-230 grains
Also, its subsonic. Not supersonic
Right I was like 45acp it's subsonic in its typical load
Would explain why he's getting supersonic velocities, if he's using 145 grain.
Muh stopn power?
What I got from the video: So we need to make custom bullets
