Jack Bauer? 24? Never seen it.
Why is it these TV guys can shoot guns, blow up bombs, crash cars, and dive out windows, never wearing hearing protection, and are not deaf? That makes me say hmmmm.

LOL - Cause it's our own imagination that allows it  Just like when you see a LAW rocket blow up an entire building. They never worked that way for me in the Army. Overall though I still enjoy the show. Better than a lot of things that are on at that time.

They didn't work for me that way either. Unless that building has an ammo magazine for the LAW to bounce into....
On the other hand I did have my ears ringing for a week or two due to losing my hearing protection one night just before a live fire exercise in Basic Training. Me being too afraid to tell a Drill that I'd screwed up I went and ran a couple hundred rounds through my M-16 with no hearing protection. I remember how badly that hurt and how long my ears rang. That's why when I see this stuff in movies and TV it puts me off totally.
Which takes me back to my first sentence. Never seen it. Doubt I ever will.

Wow you baiting Gizzy now? LOL - No, he's trying to keep Ian from catching up to his post count Yeah I used to pitch overhand softball for about 4 years before I went in the Army and I pitched the grenade like a softball. That pissed off the instructor as I nearly hit the top of the wall as he jumped on me and slammed us both to the ground.  LOL - AH! The good old days.

Wow you baiting Gizzy now? Yes, unabashedly so. That happened to someone in our company. Clipped the top of the wall, but it did bounce over. I didn't see it as I was in a throwing position down the line. I heard it was one really scary moment there at the time.

Not even an edited by comment.
Although, isn't that against the rules.
Poor guy, we've made 10 pages of posts and he can only look, but not touch. He must feel like Tantalus, though I daresay Gizzy's "crime", if you will, is an infinite number of degrees less criminal.
Which reminds me, what exactly was Gizzy's crime?
