Bullet Catch: Difference between revisions

{{trope}}

 

This is a topic which brooks no serious debate. Anyone who can actually catch a bullet has to be pretty amazing. We're talking about something which has the ability to cause death to any normal person (well, in [[Real Life]] anyway), and here somebody just grabs it mid-air. How unbelievably [[Rule of Cool|cool]] is that?

== Literature ==

 

* [[Demonic Possession|Demonhosts]] in ''[[Eisenhorn]]'' books are depicted to be able to catch bolts (essentially mini-missiles shot from a machine gun) in mid-air.

* A police detective in one of [[Older Than Radio|Kalman Mikszath]]'s short stories from the Slovak Relations anthology, manages to trick a superstitious bandit, into believing that he used black magic to catch his bullets (in truth he had two bullets with him from the beginning, and the bandit missed two consecutive shots).
