The brain is a delicate network of about 100 trillion connections with a consistency close to Jell-O, and how blasts affect that network is still poorly understood. Experts don’t yet know what level of blast can damage the tissue, or whether blasts that are safe in limited numbers can cause harm with repeated exposure.
With so much unknown, many firearms experts and neurologists say the safest course of action is to limit exposure as much as possible.
The data shows that shooting indoors does the opposite.
