According to his caption, Detwiler was doing one of his YouTube experiments with a .50 caliber firearm. But the bullet ricocheted from four feet and hit the YouTuber in his forehead.

His pictures show that there was significant bleeding, but he is alive and well. He sought immediate medical help and got the bullet removed.

The doctors are also checking him for any injuries or swelling. He has gone through a CT scan and his skull isn’t cracked.

His followers anticipate more updates from him. They are nonetheless relieved he is fine and are able to joke about his “hard-headed” skull.
