Does a bullet to the brain kill instantly?

Depends on many factors: caliber of bullet, velocity, direction, etc.... Generally, if a bullet damages both left & right hemispheres of the brain, the outcome will be fatal, but not necessarily immediate. Consciousness is often lost immediately. If a bullet travels front to back, or back to front and only damages one side of the brain, the undamaged side CAN compensate and the victim can recover to various degrees. Of course, large caliber bullets and shotgun damage to the head generally don't leave much chance for recovery. If anything, these types of weapons kill instantly, more or less.


How many people does a nuclear bomb kill?

What kills people by falling objects?

It depends on what the falling object is... if its a sharp object, it could puncture the brain or heart or other major organ and kill you instantly or pretty close to instantly. If it hits you anywhere else, you could die by bleeding to death. If its a large blunt object that crushes you, it most likely crushes your brain or heart where you die instantly. If not, you are pinned down where you can't get food or water and you die of starvation or thirst.
