And the bow shock will totally mangle cartilage beyond that “I squirted ketchup” effect. And he’d be deaf, right? So many problems in this, another cheap caricature of a real thing.
you can sustain a tremendous amount of mangling on the exterior of the ear and still hear. I don’t disagree it’d be mangled tho, not this slight nick. I think he grabbed glass and cut his own ear.
well, that’s the thing… these kind of pressure waves do tremendous damage IN tissue. outside of tissue, small arms caliber? ehhh… I don’t think there’s enough transfer from one medium to another - from the air to flesh. It’s def something I’d love to see tested.

I think they were more referencing the shockwave damage from a bullet moving that close to the ear canal.
