When a person clears a firearm, be it real or prop, and pulls the trigger later, firing off a round. This is known as The Baldwin Affect.

Many believe that the ghost of Alexander Rae Baldwin Sr. Is to blame. Some say he follows Alec everywhere attwmpting to load unloaded guns that Alec is going to handle. Reports have shown that the ghost of Alec's grandfather is very angry with him for being gay. Which is perfectly fine, you know.

While it is not necessary for a fatality to occur during The Baldwin Affect. It is encouraged.
Person 1: "I don't know how that gun could have gone off! It's got to be the gun!"

Person 2: "Or a ghost! Did your papaw know you were gay before he died?"

Person 1: "what does that have to do with anything?!"

Person 2: "I think you just got rizzed by tmThe Baldwin Affect, my dude."

Person 1: "WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT CALL 911 TRACY'S FKN DYIN, MAN!!!"
