Hey Everyone,

I know that blanks are the only form of Bullet allowed on film sets...but in watching Heat today for the ??th time the gunfight towards the end has me puzzled. When they are walking out of the bank...and start shooting at the cops, DeNiro in particular starts shooting out of the front seat of the car...making holes in the windsheild. Now I know they use little explosives to put holes in cars, and other things to make it look like a bullet went into it...but how would they make a hole in a pain of glass like that?

Thanks,
Steve
