Tumbling bullets v/s Sir Isaac Newton
#7
In mid-air, you would observe the bullet spin around its longitudinal axis (its direction of travel) very quickly and likely also see a slight wobble (precession) as the bullet gradually lost some of its angular momentum. If the bullet was "tumbling" it would rotate around an axis perpendicular to the bullet's direction of travel.
"All that is necessary for tyranny to succeed is for good men to do nothing." (unknown)

James Tracy: "There is sometimes an undue amount of paranoia among some conspiracy researchers that can contribute to flawed observations and analysis."

Gary Cornwell (Dept. Chief Counsel HSCA): "A fact merely marks the point at which we have agreed to let investigation cease."

Alan Ford: "Just because you believe it, that doesn't make it so."
