One could argue that shooting at inanimate objects requires to shoot through the air, which is essentially the sky.

Also the sky is an inanimate object.

Ergo you should shoot up at the sky.

this proves one of Albert Einstein’s quote “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe.” ;D

Jaja!! Thanks for the feedback. There’s no shortage of people calling us stupid… But… isn’t that what we have youtube for… You get to see me be an idiot so you don’t have to.

I showed this to my brother the other day. His response;

“that was really stupid”

I thought it was creative and dangerous, so two thumbs up.

So hey, I thought I’d keep you guys in the loop since this was the first place I shared the video. The video has recently gotten a few thousand views and was actually featured on the internet show “Right this Minute” seen here: [Log in | RTM - RightThisMinute](http://www.rightthisminute.com/video/catching-arrow)

We put it up on Reddit, but that has been the extent of our advertisement so if anyone else knows of any methods of video sharing to get more views, they would be greatly appreciated. But yeah, I just wanted to keep you guys in the loop, I hope all is well with everyone. Keep it real all.

Let’s not get all “Religion vs. Science” here. That kinda stuff is what gets threads, like this marvelous beauty, locked.

It’s OK. YouTube can always be named as an accessory in any lawsuits.

This was cool. I’m not sure if someone could even get that hurt…seemed that the target shielded his whole body…

Arrows tend to go through targets like they used. Could have went through and hit him. Or could have hit his feet/lower body or even stomach. Pretty risky.
