OK, what are you calling up in the air? Straight up or volley fire. Because nobody is debating that volley fire is in fact dangerous and possibly fatal. If you watched the mythbusters show on this you would have seen what a falling bullet does, because that's what they did. They shot bullets into the air then retrieved them.
The 9mm, and the .30-06 all landed on their sides, and had the same impact craters as bullets dropped from a few hundred feet, which they deemed not-fatal. And the difference between throwing something out of a plane at a few hundred (or thousand) feet and off of a 5 floor building is pretty much the same as most objects reach their terminal velocity pretty fast and lose their sideways movement almost as fast.
