Maybe in the movies!  Not that I believe Mythbusters much but they did a pretty good job disproving that one!

Can the Aussie's keep a Remington 870 or equivalent with a big honkin slug? as an "attitude" adjustment???

Don't care about MythBusters. I saw a car that got rear ended with a Scuba tank in the trunk, it took the rear quarter panel off THEN went through the cement block wall of a building.

Out at San Onofre Nuclear Station, which is actually ON Camp Pendleton, they had an SCBA, same as a SCUBA except not for underwater use, fall out of the rack and go through several walls and ended up several hundred yards out in the desert before it stopped.  Very dangerous but they don't blow up in fireball like depicted in the movie.  I was working at the site at the time and it prompted an entire retraining for storage and handling of these bottles.

The tank just shot round the room like a rat catcher.  Left a lot of dings on the wall though.

That's not even a particularly large one!  You should take a helicopter ride past the beaches.  Bunch of people swimming and not 50 yards a way 10 or 12 sharks!  I NEVER go in the water!

Here is a vid when they got too close and the beach was closed.  They are ALWAYS there just a little farther out usually.

Spinner sharks. These are the coolest fly fishing or light tackle fish going. Screw sail fish and tarpon. These things will take 50 yards at a run and jump 6 feet while doing a 360 spin (hence the name). I don't know how they taste since the fight is so much fun I want to release them so I can catch them again tomorow. Visit So. Fl. in thewinter and see for yourself.
