I wonder if those three shots were placed at the fuel tanks.

having the second window open helped with the smoke in the room. he might not have counted on the fire alarms going off but to invest in position and placement and gun rotation required due to the duration of gun fire, i'm not sure he would expect to make it far.

edit: lol skim word in kelven and naptown posts

He had to be a smart man to pull this off. I could totally see a scenario playing out where he did get away alive that night.

Your storage tank game is weak.

You must be a bank teller or graphic designer or something. Nobody with any mechanical inclination would think a massive fuel storage tank would be 1.5" thick.
These tanks come in various sizes, the ones I'm used to seeing are over 120' across. For these 3/4 to 1" would be right. Back to you, wehre are those links about penetration?

Police are revealing finally what was written on the note that was found with the Las Vegas murderer Stephen Paddock.
What was on the note?

Officers who tried to confront the killer in his hotel room were interviewed on “60 Minutes,” and said that it included hand-written calculations on where Paddock needed to aim in order to maximize the number of fatalities and injuries to the concertgoers below.

“I could see on it he had written the distance, the elevation he was on, the drop of what his bullet was gonna be for the crowd,” Officer Dave Newton from the Las Vegas Police Department’s K-9 unit said.

“So he had that written down and figured out so he would know where to shoot to hit his targets from there,” he concluded.

He said that the note was left by a nightstand near the window that Paddock had broken open.

The ones you're used to seeing in Google image search instead of just looking at the photos of the tanks in question, son.

I don't get what all this discussion is about.

Those rounds will go right through the walls of any normal tank, but they aren't going to blow up just because you shoot em. Even with a tracer round, it would be difficult. The most you could hope for is shooting tons of holes above and below the fuel level so that fresh air gets in as liquid fuel goes out, then it all ignites once there's enough oxygen inside. In fact, I'd safely say he's a moron for even trying.

There isn't "much" discussion. Just one idiot who claims to be educated about fuel tanks

I'm pretty sure your wrong. Hollywood wouldn't sensationalize such things. It's why gas caps on cars are designed to be bulletproof.

Finds a third hand website to qualify his statement. Can't seem to find a reputable source, nope, is happy with a click bait article, claims it is proof.

Believes that rifle fire can puncture an oil tank

The height of the tank is the main factor in the thickness of the plates used in the wall construction. Plates will be much thicker at the bottom that at the top due to the higher pressure there.

A 20M (60ft) high tank built from high quality stainless will be about 16mm (5/8") thick at the mid point.

I don't know if rifle bullets will get through that at range. But I guess they must.

Still wont blow up though, as kids we spent ages firing rifles and shotguns into a car fuel tank and could not get that ****er to blow. We ended up just setting it on fire with our ciggy lighters instead.

i think a safer statement is that it's still UNLIKELY to blow up

i'm sure there is some perfect storm of bizarre coincidences which could lead to that happening

Hard to make an explosion.

There's even an episode where they stream gas behind a car and set it on fire. You'd think it would instantly catch the car and ignite, but it moves slowly.
