multiple-choice question
what would actually have to happen for him to \actually\ shoot his own eye out?

• he would just have to shoot the gun normal
• he would have to shoot the gun and have the beebee bounce off of something and come back and hit him in the eye

Explanation:

To shoot one's own eye out with a BB gun (as referenced, likely from "A Christmas Story"), a normal shot without deflection wouldn't direct the BB into one's own eye. For the BB to hit his eye, it would need to bounce off a surface and then return to strike his eye. The first option is incorrect because a normal shot (aimed normally) wouldn't have the BB trajectory end at his own eye.

Answer:

B. He would have to shoot the gun and have the BeeBee bounce off of something and come back and hit him in the eye
