Would it theoretically be possible to kick a bullet out of the air given that you hit it perfectly from the side and time it exactly right?

The only way to do it that slowed its momentum would result in great injury to your foot. If you "timed it perfectly" you'd just redirect it.

So, not really.

>out of the air
what does this even mean? a kick to the side isn't going to impart any forward or backward change in momentum so at best you'll just deflect the path

Mythbusters investigated trying to catch a bullet in your teeth.

For those with autism: This means simply hitting it while it's in the air.

Nothing about that statement implies I don't have autism.

If you can move your hand faster then a bullet then yeah.

Bullet carries too much energy to be deflected by timing no matter how good.

Yes, but prepare for pierced foot.
