Son of a Gun Myth

While watching the latest episode of MB the main myth was a mith about a solider in the american civil war getting shot at the tibia, then the bullet hit his testicles and flew away with his dna eventually hitting a lady watching the war. SHe then got pregnant and delivered a baby nine months later.

I was really impressed about how they did it; they first checked if a musket could go trough a human bone and still have speed, then they checked if the bullet can go trough a bag of "magic seeds" and into a ballistic gel pelvis and deposit these "magic seeds".

at the begining of the show i was like how the fvck are they going to try to solve this. Anyhow the myth proved busted. They did not find any "magic seeds" in the ballistic pelvis after a microscopic examination of the bullet's entrance point

this myth adds to my all time favorite. is it me or the mythbusters are getting better after every show? did anyone think the same? Anyone have any other ideas on how they could of done this myth?

No, i can't at the moment Tap. But the bulloet used was a civil war "mini ball" bullet, and from what i am told, they are hollow point.

so you think that the "magic seeds" were stored in the hollowness of the bullet?

I don't know Tap. But as they say, anything is possible.
