This video tests the 'bulletproof' claims of tungsten carbide against firearms, specifically the FN 5.7. Contrary to expectations, a 5mm tungsten carbide plate shattered explosively when hit by the FN 5.7, demonstrating extreme brittleness despite its hardness. In contrast, a 5mm steel plate only sustained minor damage from the same round and even heavier calibers like .357 Magnum and 10mm Auto, proving more resilient in this ballistic test.
