I believe 'terminal velocity' is about 200 MPH or about 320 km/h.. Taken a 180 grain bullet regardless if it were fired upwards from a gun or dropped from a building, its terminal downward velocity would be the same. If this bullet hit you in the head, you are just as dead as if the gun were fired at you from a distance away. Probably not as messy though, but dead nonetheless.
It is not only irresponsible shooting a firearm upwards, it is extremely dangerous. You see the people of the middle east celebrating firing their AK-47's upwards, you can also imagine there's many undocumented injuries and/or deaths as a result of this insane practice. .
