That whole 2 guns at once part is misleading.
All it takes is years of practice combined with the willingness to lose accuracy per shot, or only doing it at close distances. It isn't some superhuman feat that the average person can't learn.
It just isn't useful compared to a single handgun in any practical situation. It's a show trick only, you'd never compete with it, and you'd definitely not want to try it in any kind of real world setting. The time you spent learning to do it would be better spent practicing any other handgun drills.
I saw this "cool guide" a few weeks ago on the front of Lemmy and people were dissecting it in the comments back then, too.
I personally took interest in the silencer misrepresentation.
Overall it's a pretty stupid, simple comic gimmick by Bright Side. Bright Side are not proficient educators, they just excel at pumping out vast quantities of garbage "educational" content. /u/Blaze@sopuli.xyz should not have shared it.
I shared it here on a movie community mostly for the movie references.
