According to a study conducted in the United States, during World War I, an average of 7,000 bullets had to be fired to kill one enemy soldier. During the Vietnam War, this number rose to 25,000 for each lethal shot. These figures seem quite surprising when you consider that a skilled and trained sniper achieves a successful and lethal shot with every 1.3 shots fired. Therefore, if Finnish sniper Simo Häyhä, with over 505 confirmed kills, had been present during the Vietnam War, he would have needed to fire more than 13,550,000 bullets to reach this incredible record. However, with his extraordinary record, he remains the deadliest sniper to have ever lived. In this video, we narrate the story of this famous sniper in history, who killed 500 members of the Soviet army in just 100 days!
