How hazardous are spent bullets from aircraft guns to people and objects below? There must have been millions in eg WW2.

And as a supplementary question, what was the effect on the environment of all that lead?

Technically, a bullet shot in the air from a shotgun can fall back on your head. Has it ever happened?

Bullet round the globe?

It is a physics fact that a bullet shot and a bullet dropped hit the ground at the same time. If you could shoot a bullet so fast that it went right round the earth and land at your feet, would that take the same time as it takes for a bullet to drop from the same height as the gun? or does the theory rely on a theoretical flat surface?
