Well, what they found out is this:

Plugging your finger into the barrel would still get your hand shot off, but the barrel did puff out slightly. Basically, if you plugged your finger into the barrel and got your barrel out of the way of the gun, you'd lost your finger and that would be all. If you stood in front of the gun and plugged it, you'd lose your hand, and the bullet would keep going at a fast enough speed to kill you or seriously injure you. The myth ended up being busted, since it stated that the barrel must have a "banana peel" splitting effect, and the shooter must be hurt or killed. While they were amazing that a ballistics gel finger (and later on they tried thick dirt) could actually puff out the barrel, the myth was not true.

the finger in the barrel caused the barrel to bulge ou slighty, but that was with shotgun, with s gun with a longer barrel and a singel shot, it probably would have worked better

I <3 Buster.
He's such a brave dummy...
Without him, they would have ended the show after about 2 episodes, if you know what I mean...

Never heard of brainiac, and btw, you can't have an animated avatar.

Braniac is sort of like mythbusters but it was originally aired in England but G4 plays it occasionally. Instead of 'busting myths' they do very quirky experiments. Such as in what situations would it be prefferable to be overweight or underweight (in a freezing room, floating, etc.).
