This video from Yee Yee Life tests the durability of a 1909, 145 lb wrought iron anvil against various firearms, from 9mm handguns to a .50 BMG sniper rifle. The anvil demonstrates remarkable resilience, with only the .50 BMG API round causing significant damage, creating a small crater and fireball but failing to penetrate. The content creator, Parker, provides an engaging and humorous demonstration of ballistic testing.

This video from Yee Yee Life, featuring firearms influencer Parker and guest Stinger, tests the ballistic resistance of a 45-pound steel weight plate against various calibers. The test progresses from common handguns (.22, 9mm, 10mm, .44 Magnum, .50 AE) to rifle rounds (7.62x51mm) and culminates with a .50 BMG rifle firing an Armor Piercing Incendiary (API) round. The plate withstands all but the final .50 BMG API shot, which achieves full penetration.

This video from Yee Yee Life, hosted by Parker, tests the ballistic resistance of a 300lb cast iron sewer lid against various calibers, from handguns to a .50 BMG sniper rifle with an API round. The test reveals that while smaller calibers cause minimal damage, a .308 round from an FN SCAR 17 successfully penetrates, and the .50 BMG API round easily obliterates the lid and subsequent targets. The video demonstrates a high-energy, albeit informal, approach to ballistics testing.

This video features Matt Carriker of Demolition Ranch conducting extreme ballistic tests on advanced body armor. With high authority in firearms entertainment and destructive testing, he demonstrates the capabilities of Premier Body Armor plates against various high-caliber threats, including .50 BMG ball, API, AP, .408 CheyTac, and .500 Auto Max rounds. The tests highlight the effectiveness of a custom 9-layer composite plate against significant threats, while also showcasing failures with less robust armor and ammunition feeding issues.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of .416 Barrett and .50 BMG API rounds against 4-inch thick Humvee bulletproof glass. The .416 Barrett successfully penetrated the glass, while the .50 BMG API round, fired with added challenges of water jugs and a steel I-beam, also went through the glass and the I-beam, demonstrating significant residual energy. The video also touches on California's legal restrictions for .50 BMG.

This video demonstrates a DIY method for creating a bullet-resistant barrier in a truck bed using readily available hardware store materials, primarily lumber and gravel. The constructed barrier was then subjected to rigorous ballistic testing with calibers ranging from 9mm to .50 BMG, including an armor-piercing incendiary round, with impressive results.
