Many people have erroneously assumed that when someone is shot by a gun, it is the bullet that kills them. The bullets you see and hear are normally metals fired at high speeds from a rifle. The majority of these bullets are made of lead metals.
It is not entirely incorrect to believe that when someone is shot, it is the bullet that kills them, but there is more to it. In this article, I will discuss what causes a person to die after being shot by a gun, not just the bullet, but a variety of other factors
To begin with, a bullet is just a metal, but it contains poisonous and hazardous metals such as lead, which is extremely harmful to your body. When you're shot, this toxic and dangerous material mixes with your blood, turning it poisonous and causing instant death. Second, human blood is oxygenated, which is why when a person is fired by a gun, the bullet that enters their body contains chemicals, toxic and hazardous substances such as lead, which lowers the oxygen level in the blood. It would be difficult for that individual to survive if their blood is deoxygenated, which means it lacks oxygen.
Finally, it is the bullet's harmful, dangerous chemical content that causes death, not the bullet itself.
