Videos tagged with Barbuda Helmet

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Barbuda helmet, a 15th-century Italian design. It was subjected to various projectiles, including a crossbow bolt, .22 LR, .380 ACP, 9mm, 5.56x45mm, and 7.62x39mm. The results indicate that while some rounds caused superficial damage or ricocheted, others, like the 9mm and 7.62x39mm, significantly compromised the helmet's integrity, rendering it unsuitable for modern ballistic protection.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Barbuda helmet, an Italian 15th-century design, against various projectiles. It demonstrates that while the helmet can withstand medieval weaponry like a crossbow and birdshot, it fails against modern handgun and rifle calibers, with significant penetration and damage observed from 9mm, 5.56x45mm, and 7.62x39mm rounds. The test concludes that the Barbuda helmet is not suitable for protection against modern firearms.
