How is it that a bullet that is 12.7 mm in diameter can kill somebody with so much more bodily damage than a 20mm rebar rod that is impaled through the body? I see stories of people surviving impalement all the time, but a shot with a .50 cal to the same area almost always results in instant death. Shouldnt the bullet just go through its target because it travels so fast?

As an experiment, fill a ziploc bag with water and stab it with a pencil.
If you leave the pencil in, it trickles. If you pull the pencil out, it drains.
Then fill another ziploc bag and shoot it with a gun.
