I wish this scene wasn't in the movie because does push the suspension of belief a little too far. I liked it when he was a zaitochi or daredevil character, relying on senses to get him through, but to be able to fire a gun and hit someone with accuracy based on sound is something that wouldn't pass the first 30 seconds of mythbusters.

He is the egg man, he is the walrus.
