Does Tedd see something fishy?

It's time... For SCIENCE!
Or possibly dorks talking about super hero powers.
Misnomer
This one time, at Mythbusters camp, they were testing whether you could bulletproof a car with phone books, and they kept escalating the firepower, and it’s like, no, nothing is bulletproof, except maybe deep water, and you have to establish a range in which the myth can be confirmed, because otherwise you’ll inevitably get to a big enough gun, and then “busted” becomes the default outcome, AND I LEARNED THAT FROM WATCHING YOU, MYTHBUSTERS, I LEARNED THAT FROM WATCHING YOU
(Turns out water doesn’t compress and will totally mess up bullets, so it’s for all intents and purposes bulletproof past a few feet, but even then you could probably build some sort of bullet projection device that could get through a given body of water, though that would potentially require a system so unwieldy as to be impossible to construct with earthly materials within atmosphere, and might require extraterrestrial assistance in order to be constructed.)
(That’s just layperson speculation, though. I am not an engineer or an extraterrestrial.)
