VIDEO: Did a Projectile / Bullet Hit Charlie Kirk from Below?
Video footage from an attendee’s phone camera shows a projectile entering on an upward trajectory rather than from a rooftop position. The immediate reaction of Kirk’s clothing (shirt) and body is inconsistent with a distant high-velocity rifle round.
Recently, internet personalities such as Candace Owens have been pushing a theory claiming that Charlie Kirks microphone exploded. This is misdirection. We believe Candace has good intentions but an exploding microphone does not become a single, precisely placed projectile. Exploding microphones will rip clothing and leave residue. The visible lift and distortion of the shirt aligns instead with a pressure wave generated by a lower-velocity impact originating from below the stage area.
The courtyard at Utah Valley University was paved over the within days of the incident. Grass at the exact point of impact was removed and replaced with concrete pavers while the investigation was still in its earliest stages. In any homicide case the immediate ground around the victim is treated as critical evidence, a crime scene. Altering that surface so quickly eliminates the possibility of recovering evidence.

- No powder residue or ejected shell casings were recovered from the rooftop position claimed in the official account.
- The shirt fluttered and lifted in a manner consistent with an air-driven pressure wave rather than the shock of a conventional rifle round fired from distance.
- The projectile did not exit the body and was recovered lodged just beneath the skin, behavior far more typical with a lower-velocity projectile and not a high-powered rifle round.
- Ballistic analysis of the recovered fragment proved inconclusive when compared to the rifle associated with the rooftop suspect.
- Public records confirm the existence of utility tunnels and maintenance access points running directly beneath the amphitheater courtyard.
- The rapid and permanent alteration of the impact site removed any remaining opportunity to examine the ground for indicators of a device or opening positioned below.

The Video showing a projectile fired from under Charlie Kirk – at a very sharp upward angle.
Viewer discretion is advised due to the graphic nature of the content.
The footage reveals the precision and angle of the single shot. Was it fired from a device located in front of or under Kirk?
According to Andrew Kolvet, spokesman for Turning Point USA, the surgeon at the hospital expressed shock that the bullet did not exit Kirk’s body. Kolvet described the bullet as being found “just beneath the skin”.
According to Grok: UVU blueprints (publicly available via their facilities site) confirm utility tunnels and hatches under the amphitheater for maintenance, tying into HVAC, plumbing, and even emergency egress.

I still have still not heard or been able to find if they actually found the projectile that hit Charlie Kirk?
I have extensively hunted with, shot and reloaded for a large part of my life with a 30/06 bolt action rifle. I know a lot about bullets, ballistics, sectional density, etc. I have seen how the projectiles perform when they hit flesh, bone or both. Does anyone know if they have the projectile? Also information on the projectile. (Weight , jacket, diameter, brand)
All critical information to solving the case.
Jay, According to Andrew Kolvet, spokesman for Turning Point USA, the surgeon at the hospital expressed shock that the bullet did not exit Kirk’s body. Kolvet described the bullet as being found “just beneath the skin”.
The coroner reportedly recovered the bullet during postmortem examination, but no name has been released for that individual. No attending physician has been publicly identified, and no autopsy report has been released.
This smells fishy. Why the renovation? WTF! There it is as plain as day – REAL QUESTIONS!!
The Magic Mauser theory. “IT” somehow got up on that building by itself and un-noticed. It then fired its “Magic 30.06 Bullet” that hit Charlie in the neck but because of Charlie’s “Magic Man of Steel” neck vertebrae, it was miraculously stopped with no exit wound. He was taken to the hospital that Magically has nobody documenting anything about Charlie’s arrival or treatment and these were all nobodies with no names. He was then released to the “Secret Medical Examiner”, also with no name. Isn’t that pretty much IT?

You are right, exploding microphones don’t BECOME accurately placed projectiles. The mic pack has to be perfectly positioned and stay that way so the shaped charge’s jet points exactly at the neck/chest artery or whatever the target was. Shirts move. Bodies shift. Clips aren’t rigid gun barrels. A loose shirt or slight tilt ruins the precision.
Packing enough explosive + liner for a reliable, lethal directed projectile while keeping it looking like a normal wireless transmitter is extremely difficult.
Evidence issues: Multiple analyses (including Shawn Ryan Show segments and others) point out the mic/lav setup doesn’t behave like it exploded in the slow-motion footage in the way claimed.
Exploding mics = random shrapnel, not precision projectiles. A deliberately engineered shaped-charge version could direct force one way, but turning a wearable mic into a reliable, precisely aimed assassination device on a moving person is far more complicated. The theory has been widely debunked in detail for exactly these physics and evidentiary reasons.
