This video tests a 100-year-old, 1000lb bank safe against various firearms, culminating in a .50 BMG sniper rifle. While handguns and smaller rifle calibers failed to penetrate, a 12-gauge slug and 5.56/.308 rounds showed significant impact, with the slug jamming the mechanism. Ultimately, the .50 BMG sniper rifle easily defeated the safe's defenses, penetrating both doors.

This video tests the penetration power of various calibers through paper, ranging from .22 LR to a .50 BMG sniper rifle. Key findings include the .50 BMG penetrating over 3,000 sheets, while a 9mm round stopped at 500 sheets. The .44 Magnum surprisingly penetrated fewer sheets than the 9mm, possibly due to bullet expansion. The .223 Remington from an AR-15 demonstrated significant penetration, exceeding 2,000 sheets.

This experiment tests the ballistic resistance of a water heater filled with water against various calibers, from .22 LR up to .50 BMG. While smaller calibers like .22 LR, 9mm, .44 Magnum, .50 AE, .223 Rem, and .308 Win were effectively stopped by the water, the powerful .50 BMG round easily penetrated the tank and destroyed the target behind it. The video highlights the significant difference in stopping power between common handgun/rifle rounds and extreme high-caliber sniper rounds.

This video tests if a concrete highway barrier can stop a .50 caliber sniper rifle. After testing various suppressed calibers from 9mm up to .460 S&W Magnum, which caused significant damage but no penetration, the .50 caliber rifle was used. Three .50 caliber rounds were required to finally penetrate the 10-inch thick barrier, demonstrating its formidable stopping power against hardened structures.

This video tests the durability of a 1909 wrought iron anvil against various calibers, culminating in a .50 BMG sniper rifle. While smaller calibers like 9mm and .44 Magnum only cause lead splatter, larger rounds like the .308 create noticeable divots. The .50 BMG API round, despite creating a small crater and fireball, was ultimately stopped by the anvil, demonstrating its extreme resilience.

This video tests a bulletproof vest's limits against various calibers, starting with handguns and progressing to rifle rounds. The vest successfully stopped 9mm, .45 ACP, .44 Magnum, .50 AE, .223, .450 Bushmaster, .308, and a 12-gauge slug. However, it failed to stop a .50 BMG sniper rifle round, which penetrated the vest and dummy completely, highlighting the limitations of personal body armor against high-powered military-grade threats.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of an excavator bucket against various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG API. While smaller calibers and even .450 Bushmaster and .308 were stopped, the .50 caliber Armor Piercing Incendiary round successfully penetrated the bucket, destroying a dummy target behind it. The test highlights the significant difference in terminal effects between standard rifle rounds and specialized armor-piercing ammunition.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a 100lb Everlast punching bag against various firearms, culminating in .50 BMG rounds. The bag successfully stopped numerous handgun and intermediate rifle calibers, including .45 ACP, 10mm, .44 Magnum, and .223 Remington. However, it was ultimately penetrated by a standard .50 BMG round and completely defeated by a .50 BMG API round, demonstrating its limitations against heavy sniper calibers.

This video tests the penetration power of various calibers against a 50-pound bag of rice. While smaller calibers like .22 LR and 9mm showed limited penetration, larger rounds like .45 ACP and .50 AE penetrated the bag. The .50 BMG sniper rifle completely obliterated the rice bag and the dummy target, demonstrating its immense power.

This video tests the durability of Lodge cast iron pans against various firearm calibers. While 9mm and .44 Magnum rounds show limited penetration, .223 and .50 AE rounds significantly damage the pans. The .50 BMG Barrett rifle completely obliterates the cast iron, demonstrating its immense power.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of various firearms rounds through bags of Miracle-Gro soil. Smaller calibers like .22, 9mm, and .45 ACP were stopped by two bags, while an AR-15 (.223) and a 12 gauge slug also failed to penetrate the second bag. The .50 BMG sniper rifle, however, penetrated three bags and lodged in the mannequin's torso, demonstrating its immense power.

This video tests the stopping power of a 150-pound slam ball against various calibers, including 9mm, .44 Magnum, 5.56 Green Tip, 12 Gauge Slug, and surprisingly, two types of .50 BMG rounds. The slam ball successfully stopped all tested rounds, demonstrating its durability and the significant impact of heavy calibers. The host uses Flex Tape to repair the ball between tests.
