As a sound designer who is working on a realistic FPS, this video is highly valuable, not really anything like this. Will be re-designing some of my sounds based on this video. The most interesting thing was hearing the crack of the bullet over the impact which is something I can implement through mixing and some game logic.
The windshield glass was the most terrifying. Not just the sound, but the fact that even if the rounds miraculously missed you, you are now trapped in a claustrophobic position where you can't open your eyes or breathe.
I thought the same thing. I wonder how much of that can be reduced by having clear film installed on the inside of the windshield. Seems like a good thing for some youtube channel to test.
A good vehicle shooting course is an eye opener, no less because you find out if your gear is truly accessible and if it will snag and/or break during egress.
Also the copper jacket breaks apart real nice and even if you’re not the primary target. Your getting fucked up when that jacket breaks apart going through the glass.
Also, you just made the most incredible reference material for sound designers & architects... for FREE. You should sell the uncompressed audio. This was a soundgasm.
When I was in the military I was tasked at one point to raise and lower targets at the range. I was in a deep trough just below the targets but safe from being hit. I was surprised at how insignificant the sound was when striking the dirt backdrop. It reminded me of the snap n pops I used to have when I was a kid.
You should make a video on “do bullets travel down walls?”. You could set up giant white paper sheets around to catch frag. It would be interesting to see different material walls and see what angle of shot causes different fragmentation paths.. And how far we should stand off of walls to not catch frag/whole rounds.
About a foot. It's not terribly common but it does happen, and generally everything hugs the wall pretty tightly. Most interior walls are not going to ricochet a round traveling at a shallow angle. Really only block, stone or steel, potentially heavy wood and some other off the wall shit (heheh), and it's really not straying far after impact unless the angle is nearly parallel. If the angle is shallow, the bounce will be too. Couple meters at most.
Honestly, Micah's advice is really appreciated. I feel like too many people nowadays are trying to go on their own and never really develop any relationships past the acquaintance level. I only have a few really close friends but they mean the world to me. I'd lay down my life for them and they would do the same for me.

Different calibers at different ranges, the impacts, in a building or by a wall, shooting from inside a car, maybe at the car, the sounds it would make shooting at dirt vs concrete or metal. etc.

Usually part of workup training is having rounds shot overhead to become familiar with the sound, hell on the ranges you will hear it alot working the butts.
hi there!! i make sound effects for a major video game developer and this video was super informative. we’re always trying to bridge the gap between people’s expectations/satisfaction and true reality. We got a lot of vets at the studio, but this is fantastic for the team to chew on!
Reminds me of how the devs for Metro got a lot of their more realistic gun sound effects by shooting at shit in abandoned tunnels. Awesome video, man, I am loving the bullet sounds series
@@ILLEagle_1 I fell in love with the series through it's music. A friend was playing some OST in his house for ambiance, and I just got enthralled. I asked where it was from, and he told me about a game that he described as "Fallout but in Moscow". I was skeptical from the description, but I decided to check it out anyway because of that music. Bought Redux the next day, and the rest is history.
Out of most of the memories from the range at bootcamp in the Corps, the one thing that stuck out was the sound of bullets smacking through paper when working in the pit crew raising and marking targets. You hear the smacks of the paper almost a second or two before the distance sounds of the gunfire erupting. Very surreal.
Oh, yes. I thought that was the sound of bullets hitting paper as well, but now I think it was the sonic crack of the supersonic bullets passing over. Did they ever tell you tales about somebody looking over the berm?
what impresses me most is his accuracy in shooting, both with the 9mm and with the rifles, anyone who knows a little about weapons knows how a millimeter can give a difference of meters in the target point and he managed to make the shots stay close even the distance
I think the 22 is a good sound sample because it’s bang doesn’t drown out all other sounds. Should probably try other weapons with silencers. The shotgun did surprisingly well too. Probably because it travels a lot slower so the time between the ignition and the impact is significant enough that the sounds are separated
@@bobbypatton4903 I’m not really talking about the speed of sound so yeah 😂 so eager to be right you argue against no one. What I mean but bang is the powder that explodes and propels the bullet that drowns out the audio recording
@@tacuska7 very true unless you were being shot at from further. And I’m talking about it purely from a sound recording perspective. So I’m more interested in the recording of the actual impact of the bullet on certain materials rather than simulating being shot at
Agreed, I don’t wanna know what it sounds like to hear a bullet tear into my flesh (assuming that it makes any sort of sound at all). Hearing the bullet enter is probably the least of my worries at that point.
Ive heard a few gunshots on corrugated iron roofsheets (which we use as walls here in RSA) and bullets on concrete slabs , mostly 9mm rounds . It's a sound I can recognise anytime . That whistling of a round passing you through the air is also unmistakable.
@@fyou2327 Its South Africa but id gladly inform you my walls are not made using corrugated iron thank god you could only find those houses in townships and rural areas
I was a career sound man in top major recording studios for 25 years from Hollywood to NYC. WOW!!! LOVE this video guys! And I'm also a WW2 fan for many years!
I started watching this just with my regular tv speakers but I stopped and watched it again with headphones. Stark stark difference. I recommend headphones for sure. Especially from inside the barn and car.
Almost no gun channel talks about the experience of being in the business end of these beautifully crafted machines we call guns. Thank your for covering this neglected part of the experience👍
This is such a valuable asset for military fiction writers! More of this please! The amount of mil-fi I read that is let down by lack of realism is annoying me. I’ve read ‘chug’ ‘thwack’ ‘buzz’ far too many times.
5:30 Concrete in general is a mixture of aggregate (sand and or various sizes of crushed rocks), Cement (a binder that hardens/sets/ and fixes everything together) and Water (to start the setting).
Eh... resi concrete. Much of commercial work is done with "plasticised" concrete, where adding water would just weakened the bonds produced by the long chain polymers used.
As someone studying audio engineering this would be a phenomenal sound library! It would certainly save me the time and price of ammo doing it myself lmao
This would be amazing for game development, especially if you added microphones at different distances to hear both the gunshot and the bullet hitting. Sound in a valley vs in a field for instance would also be cool.
He has another video on his channel doing just that! Shooting a variety of calibers at different distances in an open valley. I was thinking the same when I saw this video, I was like yessss more sounds.
I was playing insurgency sandstorm yesterday and was in a gun fight with someone and you could here the clip dropping on the floor as i emptied it .. made the Scenario seem much more vivid lol
ARMA is pretty good for this . Depending on the range you will hear the thud of rounds hitting the ground before the crack then the report of the shot .
I've literally waited for content like this for years. Back in the FPS Russia days there was a cam set up for the L8A2 tracer fire and the sound was insane and I don't think any other youtubers have done anything like this and it's insanely interesting. Especially being from the UK where guns can't be played with. Amazing content.
This is good knowledge addition for the survival/recce/stealth whatever the hell you want to call it series, but it would be nice to see more that track again specifically.
"Concrete" is the finished product, an aggregate compound consisting of binder and filler. "Cement", specifically Portland cement, is the primary binder in most concrete. Fillers tend to include sand and gravel but may also include exotic elements such as glass fiber, which I saw used once as an alternative to a steel rebar grid (it failed hard, do NOT let a salesman sell you on that idea. Glass fiber additive may strengthen concrete, but it does NOT replace having a rebar grid laid out.) Styrofoam and shredded paper have also been used as fillers, the resulting concrete is not terribly strong but can serve as lightweight insulation.
@@piotrw3954 Well, if it has no additives, it is cement, not concrete. I thought that was fairly clear... I don't think it's very useful in that state, which is why they add the sand and rocks, or glass fiber, or styrofoam, or whatever they plan to use. If there wasn't a reason to use the additives, they wouldn't use them.
In basic training, during night fire, we had a tracer ricochet back at the firing line. The tracer then struck one of the IR lamps and proceed to scream over everyone's head. Was the craziest sound
Have you ever done a video on bullet deflection in a windshield? Zero a laser at the windshield, mount the rifle, and then after each shot, show where the bullet went (if you can find it) and where the aim point was (with the laser). Could be interesting to see how different calibers react.
Rifle rounds have much less deflection through a windshield compared to pistol rounds. From inside the vehicle, pistol rounds will deflect upward; from outside the vehicle, pistol rounds will deflect downward.
Box o truth did this... What the previous guy said about up/down is correct. As you get further away, the deflection becomes greater... So much so that if shooting a pistol inside a car thru a windshield greater than 25 yards or so, you're gonna miss your target (shooting high). If possible, try to shoot through the same gap, out the window, or kick out the windshield.
It would also be extremely interesting to hear the sound of different rounds zipping by without hitting anything like it happens many times in real life especially on the battlefield where u deal with different caliber bullets flying through the air. Great vid!
@@IronRomanGaming It very easy to find just search e.g. 'garand thumb sound bullet make' and you land to -> What Does It Sound Like To Get Shot At? Bullet Sounds Near & Far
One thing that I loved about the Marine Corps was the fact that you actually learn what being shot at sounds like. You get to hear it ever time you go into the butts to pull targets, if they still do that. Didn't think about that at the time.....
The first time you see the sand jump, with no sound of report, it’s surreal until you realize your time in the butz working targets. Then an impact on your equipment and life is different from that day forward. Stay safe
Cement is the paste (powder prior to adding water) in concrete. You can use cement by itself (post holes etc), or you can add aggregate (rocks) to make concrete. You can see the rocks in the bullet impacts, so you are referring to concrete.
It'd be interesting to hear these at subsonic, suppressed at each caliber. So we can really hear the material over the gunshot for a difference in caliber.
I just recently got into the concrete industry. Cement is a binding component of concrete (the finished product), other materials go into the mix which can be adjusted to fit certain construction needs.
in the Greek army I was in a trench under the targets at 300 to do the scoring, and the sounds of the 7.62x51 coming in and cracking on the rocks behind the targets was FEARSOME. Any incoming makes you cover, but that 308 hitting is nothing like a 5.56 or a 9mm. 308 hitting next to you will put straight fear into you...
Everyone support and like these videos as much as possible, these guys need us and we highly appreciate what they are doing for gun owners across the country.
I was playing Escape From Tarkov yesterday and I heard a bullet smack the rocks next to my head and while I was waiting behind a dumpster for my enemy to make his way toward me, I thought to myself, “how did they figure out what bullet impacts sound like”. And of course, like magic, I see your video pop up in my feed. Crazy.
I was just fired from my job for protecting myself from someone trying to harm me, I'd love to come to a range day with you, Matt and donut (bucket list) My father bought me my first rifle, a 3030 at the age of 12 but bruised me very badly so traded it for 2, 22LR, taught me how to shoot( he was forced recon in marines) n I'm upset he got so sick n moved to Florida that I only got to shoot with him a couple years before him passing. He took me last time to watch me enjoy myself, he couldn't shoot cuz he gets trigger finger lock from his arthritis....I miss you dad...and I miss spending time at the range taking ur advice. He woulda loved this channel
Could you do this again using only subsonic ammo and suppressed rifles? Would not be realistic per se but would make a huge difference to our ability to hear the actual sound of the impact vs the sonic boom
Yeah, I'm only up to the dirt part right now, but the only impacts actually heard ar the .22. Every other impact is masked by the sound of the bullet flying past.
I second this, maybe with different camera placement too. Especially on the dirt, the only thing you really heard was the sound of the gun or the crack of the bullet
This, as well as your other videos, is really helpful. I try to get things as authentic as I can when writing and I really love the amount of and quality of material that you and many other guntuber channels put out.
I'm a cinematographer, and I think these sounds can be an asset for not also game devs but also for sound fx directors and foley artists. Not all these people can easily shoot and record real gun in real world. in most cases, so many other countries cannot shot or even own a gun in their home, because of the somewhat fxxking, but also somewhat reasonable, the law.
Very cool and interestingly informative video guys!!!! This feeds a part of my firearm and music/sound geek soul. I have to say this video proves once again that suppressed .22s are still so freaking cool….. quiet sounds upon firing and oddly loud and unique impact noises. Thanks again for the wonderfully entertaining content and for spreading the good news!
@@xPetyr “Prepare” for what exactly? Some dystopian nightmare where the government become tyrannical and invites a bunch of foreigners in while appointing sex offenders to government positions, stealing my money to fund a war against a country that never hurt me to aid a country that never helped me?
I can tell you that when a .30 cal penetrates the floor of a C-123 @ 800’ on a drop, it’s a loud ‘BANG’. The dirt jumps off the floor, and what used to be a noisy place seems quiet for a moment.
I would love to see the difference between hypersonic and subsonic bullet impacts as well. I believe the impact sound would be much more clear and that could be some good science!
Just an FYI, the realm of hypersonics begins past Mach 5 (5x the speed of sound), whereas supersonics occurs from Mach 1 to Mach 5. To my knowledge no conventional firearms achieve a muzzle velocity of Mach 5 or greater. Have a nice day!
rumour many years ago..certain country in middle east had 50 cal with .22 sabot that was hypersonic...never verified...although surgeons stated wounded organs turned into jelly
This video and the other gun sound video reminds me of an exercise that Eugene Sledge went through in "With the Old Breed". In chapter 2, the veterans had the new Marines take cover in a trench while they fired Japanese rifles and machine guns over them to familiarize them with the sounds prior to combat.
Had 2 .45 rounds from a lever action rifle pass so close to my head I hear the crack of the bullet and will never forget the sound…. Last time I pulled security at a party… the crack is distinctive and unforgettable. Roughest night of my life almost ran down and shot twice
Honestly, the most amazing part out of this series of amazing sounds was that pretty much everything but the windshield sounds like Hollywood and videogames. I'm used to stuff being way off base, but this time, it seems like they kind of hit the case right on the primer, to break a phrase.
When i was in the army, on my first year, we were making some field exercises, walking on a trail between some trees and next to another unit that was training with real fire, and we could hear some bullets ricocheting like really close to us from time to time, and i was nearly freaking out because i could hear them so close to me
I always enjoy the Dad advice portion, but what Micah said about finding half friends versus people you can count on is a huge point. Well said. My personal favorite was the rapid fire from the 308 into the windshield. Kind of an ominous sound.
As an aspiring sound designer for movies this helps a lot! Especially the other video of cracks and whizz sounds. I plan on making the most realistic game Audios and maybe even movie gun sounds. (Heat being my inspiration) thanks man!
You guys should turn this into a sound library, I'd imagine game devs are interested in this.

Thank you for your service and I glad you made it home. Ricochets are an ominous sound
Usually part of workup training is having rounds shot overhead to become familiar with the sound, hell on the ranges you will hear it alot working the butts.
hi there!! i make sound effects for a major video game developer and this video was super informative. we’re always trying to bridge the gap between people’s expectations/satisfaction and true reality. We got a lot of vets at the studio, but this is fantastic for the team to chew on!
Reminds me of how the devs for Metro got a lot of their more realistic gun sound effects by shooting at shit in abandoned tunnels. Awesome video, man, I am loving the bullet sounds series
Man I really enjoyed that game
@@ILLEagle_1 I fell in love with the series through it's music. A friend was playing some OST in his house for ambiance, and I just got enthralled. I asked where it was from, and he told me about a game that he described as "Fallout but in Moscow". I was skeptical from the description, but I decided to check it out anyway because of that music.
Bought Redux the next day, and the rest is history.
Out of most of the memories from the range at bootcamp in the Corps, the one thing that stuck out was the sound of bullets smacking through paper when working in the pit crew raising and marking targets. You hear the smacks of the paper almost a second or two before the distance sounds of the gunfire erupting. Very surreal.
Oh, yes. I thought that was the sound of bullets hitting paper as well, but now I think it was the sonic crack of the supersonic bullets passing over. Did they ever tell you tales about somebody looking over the berm?
I was thinking the same thing. Being back in the pits waving those lollipops.
The ones that hit the wood frame were the worst!
@@adamj8385worse was when those unquers were smacking the berm and you could hear the whistling of the ricochet
@@richardhartmann6373 those 5.56 rounds have a mind of their own after impact
what impresses me most is his accuracy in shooting, both with the 9mm and with the rifles, anyone who knows a little about weapons knows how a millimeter can give a difference of meters in the target point and he managed to make the shots stay close even the distance
I think the 22 is a good sound sample because it’s bang doesn’t drown out all other sounds. Should probably try other weapons with silencers. The shotgun did surprisingly well too. Probably because it travels a lot slower so the time between the ignition and the impact is significant enough that the sounds are separated
Couldn’t hit the right side of the barn literally with this one 😂
The 12ga and 22 are closer to the speed of sound than the 2.23 or 308. The whole premise of your comment is wrong.
It is accurate, because you will hear the same, not just the bullet 🎉
@@bobbypatton4903 I’m not really talking about the speed of sound so yeah 😂 so eager to be right you argue against no one. What I mean but bang is the powder that explodes and propels the bullet that drowns out the audio recording
@@tacuska7 very true unless you were being shot at from further. And I’m talking about it purely from a sound recording perspective. So I’m more interested in the recording of the actual impact of the bullet on certain materials rather than simulating being shot at
It sounds badass but screw being on the end of a bullet 😰
Agreed, I don’t wanna know what it sounds like to hear a bullet tear into my flesh (assuming that it makes any sort of sound at all). Hearing the bullet enter is probably the least of my worries at that point.
yeah its really hard to balance on the top, I usually set it on its side when I wanna stand on it.
imagine normandy
the wrong end that is
Hello mobster👋
Ive heard a few gunshots on corrugated iron roofsheets (which we use as walls here in RSA) and bullets on concrete slabs , mostly 9mm rounds . It's a sound I can recognise anytime .
That whistling of a round passing you through the air is also unmistakable.
What's RSA?
@@fyou2327 Republic of South Africa
@@fyou2327 I believe it’s the Republic of South Africa
@@fyou2327 Its South Africa but id gladly inform you my walls are not made using corrugated iron thank god you could only find those houses in townships and rural areas

I was a career sound man in top major recording studios for 25 years from Hollywood to NYC. WOW!!! LOVE this video guys! And I'm also a WW2 fan for many years!
I started watching this just with my regular tv speakers but I stopped and watched it again with headphones. Stark stark difference. I recommend headphones for sure. Especially from inside the barn and car.
headphones are the way
Almost no gun channel talks about the experience of being in the business end of these beautifully crafted machines we call guns. Thank your for covering this neglected part of the experience👍
Paul Harrell and Admin Results come to mind, but hitting materials was new to me.
Paul Harrel
@@WayStedYou Oh dang.
Always wondered why nobody ever made a video like this. Thanks dude.
Administrative Results did something very similar a few months ago. Have you not seen it?
@@kevinmarrett9532 Yeah but a few months ago. Was waiting on this video for years and years.
This is such a valuable asset for military fiction writers! More of this please! The amount of mil-fi I read that is let down by lack of realism is annoying me. I’ve read ‘chug’ ‘thwack’ ‘buzz’ far too many times.
Zip and crack. You'll learn the difference very quickly when under fire and returning fire lol
5:30
Concrete in general is a mixture of aggregate (sand and or various sizes of crushed rocks), Cement (a binder that hardens/sets/ and fixes everything together) and Water (to start the setting).
Today I learned about the sound bullets make when they hit, and about concrete.
Glad someone covered it, also you can see the aggregate in the impact craters so that is concrete.
Eh... resi concrete. Much of commercial work is done with "plasticised" concrete, where adding water would just weakened the bonds produced by the long chain polymers used.
@@Hengebobs hence "in general", there are alot of additives out there but I've never heard concrete where no water was used.
@@Pottan23 water is just basically the mixing agent... just like air is the mixing agent to heat to make fire...
As someone studying audio engineering this would be a phenomenal sound library! It would certainly save me the time and price of ammo doing it myself lmao
But where's the fun in not trying it eh?
@@Donuthan Time to corner the market and record audio of obscure milsurp ammo
You should get cowboy rounds too.
I was amazed how accurate it was to the sounds in ARMA 3. Wish y'all did Ak's, PK's and Dragunov. Really interesting guys, keep up the good work!
yeah arma 3 is really good in terms of sound design and bullets
I think PUBG is amazing with gun sounds and realism
@@tommymostar8512 bullet deflecting pans lmao
@@oscar1081 iron hahahaha
Came here to say this too, it sounds very similar to when you're getting shot at in ARMA 3
I enjoyed every moment of this. The sounds, weapons, gear and commentary just great time beginning to end.
This would be amazing for game development, especially if you added microphones at different distances to hear both the gunshot and the bullet hitting. Sound in a valley vs in a field for instance would also be cool.
You missing the most overlooked sound that games like bf have, that's the passing whizz of the bullet
He has another video on his channel doing just that! Shooting a variety of calibers at different distances in an open valley. I was thinking the same when I saw this video, I was like yessss more sounds.
I was playing insurgency sandstorm yesterday and was in a gun fight with someone and you could here the clip dropping on the floor as i emptied it .. made the Scenario seem much more vivid lol
@@mambak9 Sandstorm gets pretty intense
ARMA is pretty good for this . Depending on the range you will hear the thud of rounds hitting the ground before the crack then the report of the shot .
Man the .308 ripping through that windshield was crazy! 😳
As a music composer and sound designer, this was quite satisfying to watch. Shoot more things and record noises, please! 👍
This makes me appreciate BF3 even more. The gun and bullet impact sounds are pretty similar. Specially the one at 3:46
oh that sound brings back some great memories
thats a supersonic boom you're hearing, not the ground itsself, hence why you aren't hearing anything with the slugs
When i heard it i thought the same thing, bf3 was ahead of his time fr
I've literally waited for content like this for years. Back in the FPS Russia days there was a cam set up for the L8A2 tracer fire and the sound was insane and I don't think any other youtubers have done anything like this and it's insanely interesting. Especially being from the UK where guns can't be played with. Amazing content.
dude fps russia !!! almost forgot about that
FPS Russia was a beast. He is missed.
Fps russia was a rare dime . Biggest ambassador of gun channels
You can go to shooting ranges in the UK, you can even own guns in the UK. It's just nowhere near like the U.S.
This is good knowledge addition for the survival/recce/stealth whatever the hell you want to call it series, but it would be nice to see more that track again specifically.
"Concrete" is the finished product, an aggregate compound consisting of binder and filler. "Cement", specifically Portland cement, is the primary binder in most concrete. Fillers tend to include sand and gravel but may also include exotic elements such as glass fiber, which I saw used once as an alternative to a steel rebar grid (it failed hard, do NOT let a salesman sell you on that idea. Glass fiber additive may strengthen concrete, but it does NOT replace having a rebar grid laid out.) Styrofoam and shredded paper have also been used as fillers, the resulting concrete is not terribly strong but can serve as lightweight insulation.
My wife works in concrete sales and that engineer triggered her to my delight
So when does cement turn in to concrete ? (no additives)
@@piotrw3954 is that a genuine question?
@@b0zz1380y Yes - add water to cement, wait and you have concrete - where the point it becomes concrete
@@piotrw3954 Well, if it has no additives, it is cement, not concrete. I thought that was fairly clear... I don't think it's very useful in that state, which is why they add the sand and rocks, or glass fiber, or styrofoam, or whatever they plan to use. If there wasn't a reason to use the additives, they wouldn't use them.
Holy shit. This actually sounds MORE terrifying in reality than in the movies.
In basic training, during night fire, we had a tracer ricochet back at the firing line. The tracer then struck one of the IR lamps and proceed to scream over everyone's head. Was the craziest sound
After all the combat footage I've seen recently, the sounds of the windscreen getting shot is the scariest, especially the .308, that thumps!
Have you ever done a video on bullet deflection in a windshield? Zero a laser at the windshield, mount the rifle, and then after each shot, show where the bullet went (if you can find it) and where the aim point was (with the laser). Could be interesting to see how different calibers react.
Rifle rounds have much less deflection through a windshield compared to pistol rounds.
From inside the vehicle, pistol rounds will deflect upward; from outside the vehicle, pistol rounds will deflect downward.
Box o truth did this... What the previous guy said about up/down is correct.
As you get further away, the deflection becomes greater... So much so that if shooting a pistol inside a car thru a windshield greater than 25 yards or so, you're gonna miss your target (shooting high). If possible, try to shoot through the same gap, out the window, or kick out the windshield.
It would also be extremely interesting to hear the sound of different rounds zipping by without hitting anything like it happens many times in real life especially on the battlefield where u deal with different caliber bullets flying through the air. Great vid!
They did a video on this a few months back. Can’t remember what it’s called
I've shot 222 &30-30 over a friend's head & he fid the same to me back in 1991? Definitely heard different zziipps for sure.
@@IronRomanGaming It very easy to find just search e.g. 'garand thumb sound bullet make' and you land to -> What Does It Sound Like To Get Shot At? Bullet Sounds Near & Far
One thing that I loved about the Marine Corps was the fact that you actually learn what being shot at sounds like. You get to hear it ever time you go into the butts to pull targets, if they still do that. Didn't think about that at the time.....
was told there mostly remote operated
now lots of civy ranges still do manual butt duty
@@willam1992 They sure do.. We have to wear ear protection due to the cracks of the rounds hitting the butts.
@@burville100 yeah I got some bullet frag that came back from the butts thank f I had my eye pro on..
@@willam1992 they still pull targets manually
If there's rocks mixed into it, it's concrete. Without the rocks, it's just cement.
Interesting- could hear all the trigger resets as they were shouldered and the mic was still on. That's pretty cool.
I was just thinking the same thing once he started using the suppressed 5.56🤣
The first time you see the sand jump, with no sound of report, it’s surreal until you realize your time in the butz working targets.
Then an impact on your equipment and life is different from that day forward.
Stay safe
10:59 almost shot an outline of a heart lol ♡
That’s insane, hearing the impact of the bullet hit before the gunshot is terrifying
It's like the difference between lightning and thunder out on flat land during a storm. You see the flash and then hear the boom.
@@brucestarr4438 and if you don't see, then hear and instead see AND hear - you should probably get the hell out of dodge.
Once again you bring us gold.
I am but a humble servant
@@GarandThumb your so fkn wrong..I'm pissed at the misinfo your uncle Paul Harrell says it sounds like an invite to a party
Cement is the paste (powder prior to adding water) in concrete. You can use cement by itself (post holes etc), or you can add aggregate (rocks) to make concrete. You can see the rocks in the bullet impacts, so you are referring to concrete.
Y'all's intros are better than 90% of most movies
Garand Thumb indie action flick when?
It'd be interesting to hear these at subsonic, suppressed at each caliber. So we can really hear the material over the gunshot for a difference in caliber.
It would be!! It probably took a good 4 or 5 hours to do these more realistic scenario tests already though
Give us another “Becoming Deadly” episode. It’s what the people want
I just recently got into the concrete industry. Cement is a binding component of concrete (the finished product), other materials go into the mix which can be adjusted to fit certain construction needs.
Ty. Couldn't believe the "same" answer. Smh
in the Greek army I was in a trench under the targets at 300 to do the scoring, and the sounds of the 7.62x51 coming in and cracking on the rocks behind the targets was FEARSOME. Any incoming makes you cover, but that 308 hitting is nothing like a 5.56 or a 9mm. 308 hitting next to you will put straight fear into you...
Unexpected Greek Army cameo
12:11 "NO FULL AUTO IN THE BUILDING!!"
The grouping with the cc75 on the concrete wall was actually really impressive, especially at the distance you was at
Alas, closed captions let you down on that one. It's actually a "CZ-75"

Hey guys I just wanted to say that your content has really become incredible lately. Keep up the great work!
5:54….The 70’s and 80’s cinema sound techs got it right….👌🏾😁😁👍🏾
I love this series, all the stuff about what bullets sound like is fascinating. You’ve got some seriously great microphones
The 22 sounds the best. So satisfying to hear on earth. But it must be terrifying to hear in real life.
I was playing Escape From Tarkov yesterday and I heard a bullet smack the rocks next to my head and while I was waiting behind a dumpster for my enemy to make his way toward me, I thought to myself, “how did they figure out what bullet impacts sound like”. And of course, like magic, I see your video pop up in my feed. Crazy.
Didn't take a genius to figure out.
I was just fired from my job for protecting myself from someone trying to harm me, I'd love to come to a range day with you, Matt and donut (bucket list) My father bought me my first rifle, a 3030 at the age of 12 but bruised me very badly so traded it for 2, 22LR, taught me how to shoot( he was forced recon in marines) n I'm upset he got so sick n moved to Florida that I only got to shoot with him a couple years before him passing. He took me last time to watch me enjoy myself, he couldn't shoot cuz he gets trigger finger lock from his arthritis....I miss you dad...and I miss spending time at the range taking ur advice. He woulda loved this channel
Could you do this again using only subsonic ammo and suppressed rifles? Would not be realistic per se but would make a huge difference to our ability to hear the actual sound of the impact vs the sonic boom
Yeah, I'm only up to the dirt part right now, but the only impacts actually heard ar the .22. Every other impact is masked by the sound of the bullet flying past.
I second this, maybe with different camera placement too. Especially on the dirt, the only thing you really heard was the sound of the gun or the crack of the bullet
@@xboxplzfixme exactly. Taking this as what impact sounds like is like taking ballistic dummies as actual representations of human flesh & bone.
Would also help simulate long distance as rounds have less energy and velocity
Thank you guys. I hope damn youtube won't ruin huge and important guntubers work
This, as well as your other videos, is really helpful. I try to get things as authentic as I can when writing and I really love the amount of and quality of material that you and many other guntuber channels put out.
TBH, this is how I found Garand and now I just stick around because of the quality content
I'm a cinematographer, and I think these sounds can be an asset for not also game devs but also for sound fx directors and foley artists. Not all these people can easily shoot and record real gun in real world. in most cases, so many other countries cannot shot or even own a gun in their home, because of the somewhat fxxking, but also somewhat reasonable, the law.
Can't get this type of educational content anywhere else. So cool!!
This was actually really cool and it gives me some more appreciation for just how close some games come to getting it right.
Arma 3 comes to mind as the only game I've ever played that has the sonic pops as the bullets fly by
@@valkaerie8715 If I remember right Battlefield 1 had sound effects quite close to those in the video at times
Lots of studios now record their own. Battlefield 3,Squad, Arma are all very good.

Very cool and interestingly informative video guys!!!! This feeds a part of my firearm and music/sound geek soul. I have to say this video proves once again that suppressed .22s are still so freaking cool….. quiet sounds upon firing and oddly loud and unique impact noises. Thanks again for the wonderfully entertaining content and for spreading the good news!
I was hoping for a new sound video. I've actually been wondering what it would sound like being shot at by different suppressed weapons.
That seems like a really unhealthy place to let your mind wander 🤨

This might be the most insightful gun video of 2023! The video we didn't know that we needed!
I can tell you that when a .30 cal penetrates the floor of a C-123 @ 800’ on a drop, it’s a loud ‘BANG’. The dirt jumps off the floor, and what used to be a noisy place seems quiet for a moment.
Also pretty cool to hear the difference between super and subsonic bullets.
As an artist and writer I love all the testing garand thumb has been doing lately, from close miss sounds to 9mm penetration it has been great.
I would love to see the difference between hypersonic and subsonic bullet impacts as well. I believe the impact sound would be much more clear and that could be some good science!
Just an FYI, the realm of hypersonics begins past Mach 5 (5x the speed of sound), whereas supersonics occurs from Mach 1 to Mach 5. To my knowledge no conventional firearms achieve a muzzle velocity of Mach 5 or greater. Have a nice day!
Agreed. I wanna hear the best suppressed rounds you got impacting stuff. 300blk bolt action with a huge can hitting lots of different things.
@@DogClutch the fastest is 220 swift or 22-250 i cant remember whicg but its 4600fps
rumour many years ago..certain country in middle east had 50 cal with .22 sabot that was hypersonic...never verified...although surgeons stated wounded organs turned into jelly
5:50 bullets hitting concrete with its whisling is just so cool
This ranch is a proper addition for the channel!
This video and the other gun sound video reminds me of an exercise that Eugene Sledge went through in "With the Old Breed". In chapter 2, the veterans had the new Marines take cover in a trench while they fired Japanese rifles and machine guns over them to familiarize them with the sounds prior to combat.
This might come in handy in the future. A higher volume of fire seems to be much more intimidating than slower plinking. Great work, folks!!
Had 2 .45 rounds from a lever action rifle pass so close to my head I hear the crack of the bullet and will never forget the sound…. Last time I pulled security at a party… the crack is distinctive and unforgettable. Roughest night of my life almost ran down and shot twice
Honestly, the most amazing part out of this series of amazing sounds was that pretty much everything but the windshield sounds like Hollywood and videogames. I'm used to stuff being way off base, but this time, it seems like they kind of hit the case right on the primer, to break a phrase.
The .22 hitting the concrete sounds 100% like a movie western and im very happy
When doing target practice with the 10-22, I get those sounds from time to time and I love it. Just like the movies! 😁😁
When i was in the army, on my first year, we were making some field exercises, walking on a trail between some trees and next to another unit that was training with real fire, and we could hear some bullets ricocheting like really close to us from time to time, and i was nearly freaking out because i could hear them so close to me
I always enjoy the Dad advice portion, but what Micah said about finding half friends versus people you can count on is a huge point. Well said. My personal favorite was the rapid fire from the 308 into the windshield. Kind of an ominous sound.
Going to try this on my neighbors car right now, thanks for the idea!
I done that already.
He was like:I hear really different impact sounds,thx!
As an aspiring sound designer for movies this helps a lot! Especially the other video of cracks and whizz sounds. I plan on making the most realistic game Audios and maybe even movie gun sounds. (Heat being my inspiration) thanks man!
good luck~~!
Love how the afterthought Dad advice was actually something a lot of people could benefit greatly from. Awesome vids gents! From Idaho!!
