Bullets don’t technically ricochet off plates or soft vests. When a bullet strikes a plate, it transfers its energy to the plate, deforms (mushrooms out), and stops. The bullet or its fragments usually fall downward or become trapped in the plate’s spall-coating, which is designed to capture fragments and reduce secondary ricochet.Just before he gets shot. Check the shape around his upper chest. He's wearing a plate.
I think the turbulence and impact from the bullet striking his neck is what caused his T-shirt to move as it did.
I've watched a few videos from different devices and angles, the shot kind of sounded suppressed to me, but I won't take a bet on it, it could just be the audio that was picked up.
