By shells, if you mean bullets and/or exploding warheads fired by small arms or artillery, then: Bullets (usually made of metal) put holes in people, causing internal damage to the body, that can often be fatal. Exploding warheads are dangerous for the things that are thrown out from the explosion of the warhead. Pieces of the warhead (made of metal) can tear, penetrate or rip apart a person's body. These "shell fragments" are propelled by the force of the explosion at high speeds in all directions (usually). Depending on the specific situation, exploding shells can cause other nearby ground clutter, rocks, pieces of man-made structures, trees, etc. to be thrown at high speed in all directions. These other flying objects are a danger to the human body, especially the head. Exploding shells and bombs can also injure or kill people with the air shock wave that damages the brain. This usually happens when people are very close to the explosion, even if protected from shell fragments & debris.
