This reminds me of an episode of "Cops" I saw one time. The cops had
been called in to respond to a 911 call about a drive-by-shooting. To
make a long story short, they caught the shooters fairly quickly, and
the shooters said they'd only fired on one person. The cops then went
around the neighborhood, looking for the shooting victim, who had been
a 250 pound teenager.

They caught up with the fat guy 2 blocks down. He hadn't even realized
he'd been shot, and was rather surprised when the police pointed out
the hole in his shirt. However, when they examined him without the
shirt on, the police found no entry wound at all. The police
determined that because the shooters were using such a small caliber
round (a .22 if I remember right) that the bullet had just bounced
right off the fat guy.
