These bullets did collide but not mid-air as is sometimes suggested. One of them was never even fired, it has no "rifling" marks. So it was stationary, perhaps carried in a clip, bandolier or just in an ammo crate, when it was struck. Not extremely rare. https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2021/09/fact-check-viral-image-does-not-show-two-bullets-that-collided-during-the-battle-of-gallipoli.html https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2015/05/04/bullets-collided-mid-air/ https://thefunnybeaver.com/did-these-two-bullets-collide-midair/ https://www.greatwarforum.org/topic/229997-photo-of-two-bullets-collided-mid-air/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1725565213984878993

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
