As evidenced in the photo, it probably did partially melt and deform; but getting hit with a slug of molten metal is unlikely to be any better of a result. What's more important here is the boiling point.

Even if the metal is only liquefied, under the airflow it'll be prone to breaking into droplets with much lower terminal velocity, with much the same effect of reducing the mass that can actually hurt anyone. Unless I'm missing something big about the dynamics?
