[00:00:00]What if you fired a bullet into a global loop? Most think gravity wins, but the truth is terrifying. I'll explain.

Our fastest rifles only hit 3,000 mph. At that speed, air resistance turns the metal into a streak of fire, vaporizing it instantly. You'd need the vacuum of space for it to become a satellite and loop right back to hit you.
