i fired paper balls out of my tippmann once. i then stuffed the barrel with so much paper balls the air had no place to escape. i still feel like a dumbass for doing it.

Unless it goes through your throat or temple, no.

I guess if you had a completely unlucky blood clot turned stroke thing, that could be bad. But that would be pure bad luck.

Or if some loser was shooting something other than paintballs (harder/heavier projectiles) and happened to hit one of those areas.

i knew a kid that stuck a stick in his 98 barrel, it went like 3 feet. 

any projectile u shoot out of a weapon is lethal. in this case, a paintball, when shot normally doesnt have anough power to kill unless u hit on the money.  any other object can kill.  bottom line: shooting anything other then normal UNFROZEN paintballs is dangerous and should not be done by anyone

Have you not read any of this thread?  A paintball can NOT kill you.  Unelss of course, by "on the money," you mean that a surgeon happens to bring out a paintball gun in the middle of open heart surgery, then it's not possible.  I've already tried to explain to everyone that 300 feet per second is not enough force and kinetic energy to kill you with anything short of a razor sharp object.  Guess what happens when you put a marble in a paintball gun?  It's velocity is lower than 300fps because it has MORE MASS x the constant FORCE.  Therefore, no, you won't die unless you have a pre-existing medical condition or an open surgery tray over a major organ/artery/vein.

AND FROZEN PAINTBALLS ARE MORE BRITTLE THAN A NORMAL PAINTBALL.  FOR GOD'S SAKES, PROFESSIOINAL TEAMS OFTEN KEEPS THEIR CASES ON ICE AND IN COOLERS FOR THIS VERY REASON. DON'T YOU THINK WE WOULD HAVE HAD A DEATH BY NOW IF THAT WEREN'T THE CASE?
