This video tests the penetration capabilities of various calibers through stacked drywall sheets. It demonstrates how different bullet types and calibers perform against this common building material, offering a practical, albeit unconventional, look at projectile energy transfer and stopping power.

This video from Yee Yee Life features Parker Smith conducting an experimental ballistic test, using Feastables chocolate bars as a medium to test bullet penetration. He demonstrates how different calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG, interact with the chocolate bars, providing a unique, albeit unconventional, look at projectile energy and stopping power. The experiment highlights the significant differences in penetration capabilities across various firearm types and calibers.

This video from Kentucky Ballistics tests the bullet-stopping capabilities of a 10 oz pure silver bar against various calibers. The bar successfully stopped .22 LR and 9mm rounds, though it deformed significantly with the 9mm. It also stopped a .45 ACP round, causing further deformation and dislodging a previous .22 bullet. However, a 5.56 rifle round penetrated the bar completely, leading to the conclusion that silver is not effective body armor. The expert assessment highlights safe firearm handling and a clear understanding of ammunition types.

This video from Yee Yee Life explores the ballistic penetration capabilities of Play-Doh, using it as an alternative medium to test various calibers from .22 up to .50 BMG. The host, demonstrating enthusiastic and experimental energy, provides a visual guide to how different rounds interact with the material, noting penetration depths and entry hole characteristics. The content highlights safe firearm handling and muzzle discipline, offering insights into projectile performance in a non-standard medium.

This video demonstrates a ballistic test to see if a car's engine block can stop a .50 BMG round. The host, identified as a content creator and firearms enthusiast, uses a bolt-action .50 cal rifle with a Vortex optic. The experiment shows the round penetrates the car's fender and metal components but is stopped by the engine block, protecting the mannequin behind it. The host exhibits safe firearm handling and knowledge of ballistic penetration.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of iPhone screen protectors against various calibers, from .22LR to 6.5 Creedmoor. It demonstrates that while screen protectors can stop or significantly slow down smaller rounds like .22LR and .380 ACP after multiple layers, they are ineffective against higher-powered rifle rounds like 5.56x45mm and 6.5 Creedmoor. The test highlights that screen protectors are not a viable solution for protecting a phone from firearm impacts.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of 50 pounds of beans against various handgun and rifle calibers. The experiment demonstrates that while beans can stop lower-power handgun rounds like .22 LR and .380 ACP, they offer diminishing resistance against more powerful cartridges. Even rifle rounds like 5.56 and 7.62x39 were significantly slowed or stopped by the bean barrier, though they did cause more penetration than handgun rounds.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of a .50 caliber sniper rifle against hay bales. A single hay bale proved insufficient, with the .50 BMG round penetrating and hitting the ballistic dummy. However, two stacked hay bales successfully stopped the round, demonstrating their effectiveness as a ballistic barrier alternative.

This video from Yee Yee Life explores the ground penetration capabilities of various firearms, from handguns to a .50 caliber sniper rifle. The host, demonstrating high authority in content creation, systematically tests and measures the depth each caliber achieves in soil. Key findings highlight the significant penetration power of larger calibers like the .50 BMG compared to common rifle and handgun rounds.

This video showcases a ballistic experiment using a suppressed AR-15 rifle in a desert shooting range. The content creator, Nikko Ortiz, demonstrates the use of safety equipment like Walker's electronic ear protection and a stabilized shooting platform (bipod). The experiment involves firing at water-filled condoms to observe projectile impact, presented in a humorous and informal tone.

This YouTube video features a penetration test where hockey pucks are shot with a 5.56mm projectile to determine how many are required to stop the bullet. The video focuses on ballistics and the effectiveness of the 5.56mm round against a specific type of barrier.

This video from Edwin Sarkissian explores the penetration capabilities of various high-caliber rifle rounds through a barrier of flour bags. The expert demonstrates how much flour is required to stop .50 BMG, 6.5 Creedmoor, and .338 Lapua Magnum rounds, offering a unique, albeit non-standard, method for visualizing ballistic performance. The experiment concludes with a dramatic detonation of a hand grenade within the flour setup.
