Very good point about the lethal rhythm by shocking the heart, ur right its not a shock wave, because the idea behind hydrostatic shock is that it causes tearing and other damage to the tissue and ur scenario does not reflect that kind of damage. And u have successfully just disproved my less lethal bean bag gun theory. Bravo.
But what about the boxer/deer that takes the blunt blow to the head? That doesn't disrupt anything as long as the spinal cord is left intact right? so energy transfer does cause the brain to swell, like a concussion that people die from all the time.
Fish will not die instantly out of water they will all live for at least 5-10 minutes flopping around before finally suffocating and dying... As a teenager i had many fish and had many escape, they dont die instantly. So the fish in a bag test is still a cool idea. Although not very scientific lol.
Gotta go find that mythbusters now though. Sounds cool that they tried it.
