I am not referring to a scenario where one cartridge has a bullet in it. I have read of a specific case where a blank cartridge was fired and yet the person still died. If no bullet was in the round, how could it kill someone?
It still has the explosive charge, it’s just not launching a projectile. But the gunpowder can still burn and deafen.
And if you’re blocking the barrel, say, firing a blank against your hand, that pressure has to get out still. Your hand would essentially become the bullet.
