    Depending on where on her chest it went in, maybe it punctured a lung? Not sure if your heart can be reached within 2 inches anywhere around your chest.

      3.2 cm is average depth from skin to heart at its closest point to the outside. 6% of individuals is just 1.7 cm.

      So 2" can be plenty to poke at it.

        I see you used two different units, lets add a third to puzzle americans.

        1" is equal to 25,4 mm

          If it’s any consolation, as an American that got into 3d printing… Holy hell am I glad for metric or half the work would be converting all this imperial bullshit.

          No, Americans like fractions. You should give that measure in fractions of a parsec.
