The Night Elvis Tried to Teach Priscilla to Shoot a Gun…You Won’t Believe the Chaos That Ensued!

Elvis Presley was known for his larger-than-life personality, but there was one night in the early 1970s when he took his adventurous side to a whole new level — with a shocking and chaotic twist. Elvis, ever the unpredictable soul, decided to teach his wife Priscilla Presley how to shoot a gun. What began as a lighthearted attempt to introduce Priscilla to one of his favorite hobbies quickly spiraled into a hilarious, and somewhat dangerous, disaster.

The couple was at Graceland, their legendary home in Memphis, when Elvis brought out a .357 Magnum revolver, eager to show Priscilla how to handle it. At first, Priscilla was hesitant, unsure about firing the weapon, but Elvis was determined to teach her. With his usual charisma, he reassured her, saying it would be fun, and that he was a skilled marksman.

But when Priscilla took her turn to fire, things went wrong. The kickback from the gun was much stronger than she expected, causing her to lose control. The gun went off in an unexpected direction, sending Priscilla tumbling backward. Elvis, shocked and panicked, rushed to her side.

Fortunately, neither was hurt, but the situation had turned chaotic. Elvis’s laughter echoed around Graceland as he realized what had just happened. “Maybe I’ll stick to music,” he joked, helping Priscilla up.

The night ended with both of them in fits of laughter, but it was a reminder that even in their private moments, life with Elvis Presley was always full of surprises—and a little bit of chaos!
