Yes you can, but you would have to hold your breath and make sure that you exhale quickly, because underwater there is no oxygen. You will hear it but the projectile will not go as fast because the water will slow it down. You would not be able to fire another shot unless you supply your own oxygen or surface and inhale.

Can a blowgun be fired underwater?

It'd be difficult but in essence, it could be possible. Suck in the air above, blow REALLY hard out.. It probably wouldn't pierce skin though.


Can a Blowgun be fired in outer space?

Yes but only with an external air supply.


Can a blowgun be fired in space?

Not by mouth; you cannot breathe in the vacuum of space. If you were to provide a compressed air source, then you could use a blowgun much like you might fire a CO2 pellet gun. In theory, it might be possible to create a "force field" that would restrict the flow of air across a barrier, but not prevent larger material items from passing through. Such "force fields" are a common staple of science fiction stories and TV programs, but at present they are strictly in the realm of fantasy. But many fantastical concepts have come to pass in the last 100 years. So it is possible, given a spacecraft with a force field, that you would be able to shoot a blowgun dart into space - but you cannot fire one IN space.

What would happen if someone were to take a deep breath and try to use a blowgun on the moon Would they explode?

No, but he would become dizzy. However, you could hear the sound of a blowgun because of the sompressed air that follows the expulsion of the blowgun projectile. He will also be pushed back by the air of the blowgun exiting the barrel. As soon as someone takes off the space helmet the skin will immediately boil and freeze; longer exposure will result in unconsciousness and fatal death. So yes it is possible to shoot a blowgun on the moon but you will have to be really quick to exhale and put your helmet back on,otherwise you will notbe able to use the weapon in outer space.
