Today is the first day of this year… On this auspicious day, our post is going to be about silver bullet… we came to know about silver bullets only in comics and stories… but all like to know more about it… And I help you to know it… The metaphor of the silver bullet applies to any straightforward solution perceived to have extreme effectiveness. The phrase typically appears with an expectation that some new technology or practice will easily cure a major prevailing problem.
The term originates from folklore. Traditionally, the silver bullet is the only kind of bullet for firearms that is effective against a Werewolf, Vampire, witch, monster, or a person living a charmed life.
The idea of the werewolf's supposed vulnerability to silver probably dates back to the legend of the Beast of Gevaudan, in which a gigantic wolf is killed by a person wielding a gun loaded with silver bullets.
In the Brothers Grimm fairy-tale of The Two Brothers, a bullet-proof witch is shot down by silver buttons, fired from a gun.
In different traditions, silver is thought to be the metal associated with the moon and with the human soul. It is likely that these associations have contributed to the legend of the silver bullet.
It should be noted that actual silver bullets are less dense than lead bullets. As a result they have less momentum after being fired from a gun and cause less damage. Because of this, silver bullets are in fact less effective than lead bullets.
Thus there is much information available about silver bullets…. Some are true and some are non-proved or fake… So for what silver bullets are used? Still a mystery, riddle, puzzle and whatever it is…
