What’s hilarious about this is that obstructed barrels actually can explode into ribbons just like the cartoons. A finger might not do it though, and not sure how many volunteers you’d get for a scientific test.

A lot of people in that thread have never seen Looney Tunes. If they did, they would have learned 3 vital facts about physics:
-
A finger in the barrel of a gun will stop a bullet and cause the gun to explode.
-
Gravity cannot effect you until you acknowledge that you are not on solid ground.
-
Being crushed by a heavy object falling from a great height (think and anvil or piano) will cause to to collapse like an accordion until you are re-inflated.
These are basic scientific facts everyone should know in the modern age.
