Ballistic:

Of Bullets and Walls

The video explains how a projectile hitting a wall follows its surface, with the angle of incidence different from the angle of reflection. The deformed projectile continues moving along the wall at a shallower angle.

In this short but very informative video that we found, it is well explained with models what happens when a projectile hits a wall. In short: The bullet follows the wall. This means that the angle of incidence is not equal to the angle of reflection, and the deformed projectile with shrapnel continues to move along the wall at a shallower angle. Very good to know.
